Ive been kinda MIA around here this weekend....out of town and other shennanigans....
but Im glad you posted all the card pics Lorna!! They are really, really one of a kind and I am sure they are extremely special to the recipients I know I LOVE mine!!!

Some of you may or may not have received a PM from me or an email from the BATW crew in the past week or so---but for those that have not, if anyone out there is interested in helping out a fellow 10-clubber in our current project (not posted anywhere on the boards as its still in the top secret stage ), please PM me for details

My latest bug adventure- (hey, any excuse to bump BATW, right? )

Today a cricket took up residence in the living room. I dubbed him Mr. Hopster!

brianlux

Tomorrow- turning the keys over to the step-kids, hoping the place is in one piece when we get back and taking off for a fall camping trip. Last Bump for a bit, BUGS friends. Be good (or, well, ok, at least have fun! )

Loulou

Good Luck Brian have fun!!

My last post on my first full day back home MUST be BATW bump. Six nights of crickets in the forest, bee flies checking out my morning coffee and the world's friendliest yellow jackets. BUGS!

Bump!!

I sitting there, minding my own business and having a Chicago hotdog (the one with the pickles and stuff) and I heard the freakin loudest bloody crickets I have ever heard in my life! There just happened to be a speaker at the side of this park Cafe and I thought it was coming from the speaker!
I know....that sounds really f-ing dumb now I think about it.... :?

Then Kelly told me they were some scary, bloody mutating Cicadas and I thought bloody hell, they could have attacked me at anytime! Thanks for the warning Kel, I COULD HAVE BEEN EATEN ALIVE!!!! :shock:

You are welcome, as always Lorna was so cute when she told me the story. Her and her husband were looking at me like I'd gone mad when I told them about the cicadas covering the trees with thier shells.

With finger crossed and nerves jumping, I'm off to the audiologist to find out what's wrong with my left ear. I hope it's not all "Dynamic Mono" instead of "Realistic Stereo" (thank you, Paul Westerberg) from here on out!

Thanks Kelly and Lorna. My doc said, "Come back in two weeks for more tests". Wouldn't ya know... :(
He says if my left side hearing is off enough from the last test a few years ago I'll need an MRI... and then said something about checking for an acoustic neuroma. I'm putting my money it being just an aging ear thing and it's all gonna work out fine.

On the way home I listened to Yield and you know, it's all good.

That's the spirit mate, I have terrible hearing but I think that's from standing in front of way too many speakers when I was young and dumb.

Hi there folks!
Bill recently recieved his card so I thought you guys might like to take a look at what is turned out like. Bill is a Cleveland Browns fan so I tried to incorporate a little PJ and a little Browns into it.
Front

Inside Message The little elf in the corner was their previous mascott in the 50's I believe, I gave him a Ten Club hat and PJ vans.

Thanks for PMing me all your lovely messages and thanks to Haydenism for letting me make this card for Bill. Hope you guys liked it.
