I lost 7 pounds in 24 Hours!
BECAUSE... Yesterday was so fun! After the meeting I went to the gym, and worked out my back. Then I played 6 games (a couple hours) of basketball. THEN, I went swimming, and jumping off a diving board. I think I lost waterweight, because this morn, when I weighed myself, I was feeling pretty dehydrated.
How can you lose anymore weight? You're already like 2% bodyfat!
Everyone weighs less in the morning... weigh yourself now or tonight when you get home...
Yea todd! you fatty
lol. YOU'RE the fatty!
Thai, Thai the big fat guy.
Toddle woddles because he's so fat!
ahh fat fat fat fat like a cat!
and i'm not fat. it's all muscles
TODDY te odio! LOL seriously, i'm already feel like a fat circus freak woman next to you, how can you lose more weight!?!?! lol
lol, no!!!!
I'll gain it all back. I ate some yog (yogurt), and I'm drinking lots of water, eatin grapes. I can't wait to eat a ton for lunch.
Quizno's ?
NOOOO, Yesterday at the wedding there was the perfect steel drummer, i want him, he gave me his business card but i can NOT FIND IT!!!!! WHAT DO I DO? I need him ASAP. I dont remember his name or anything!
Maybe you could call the reception hall where the wedding was? Sometimes they save vendor's cards, or they might at least know the name of the guy.
I was thinking of that but i didnt have a good run in with the materde, she was nasty.
Is the matrede the wedding coordinator too?
at the reception site there was only the matrede. The bride didnt have a wedding coordinator.
I called she said she will ask the bride, i can ask the bride to , but its like to early and weird to call the day after there wedding to get the steel drummers name. hah.
lol, I love it!

Ok so I'm moved into my place in Mansfield. Can someone let me know what times the meetings are for Hackettstown during the week? I know it's at 3pm on Sunday.
Tuesday at 7:30 is our Service Meeting/Ministry School
There's a bookstudy there on Wednesday at 7:30, too..
Keep in mind, though, we have our Convention this week, so we're having a cong. bookstudy on Tuesday at 7:30 instead of our normal meeting.
Thanks. I already went to the convention last month.
Who's the congregation secretary?
Joe Schiano
rock superstar's father, Joe.
So I am new to this Ipod thing is there away to format it so i can start over. I had no idea it just dl'ed from my music file, there was so much i didnt want on there.
with your ipod connected, in itunes in the lower right hand corner there will be a button with an ipod on it.
click the ipod button, it will bring up the ipod options. deselect the auto update / auto synchronization (i don't remember the exact name of it, but i hope you get the point)
at this point you will be able to manage your songs on your ipod with out putting everything on.
ps to get rid of all the songs, on the left side of itunes select your ipod. this will bring up all the music files on your ipod. just select them all and delete.
I JUST PHOTOGRAPHED THE BEST 2 WEDDINGS IN THE PAST 2 DAYS, SO MUCH FREAKEN FUN, BUT TODAY ESPECIALLY WAS THE BEST BECUASE THE BAND THE NERDS PLAYED AND THEY ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD. I LOVE THEM! ,, I AM SO PUMPED FROM THESE WEDDINGS, HAHA THEY WERE JUST SO FUN...
Does anyone know anything about protecting a tv from magnetic waves? Donovan badgered me into getting a new tv, and even after we moved all our speakers out of the room, there were still currents affecting the color of our tv. We think that since our house is so old, the wires in the wall are probably not shieled correctly.
Is there anything we can do to keep the magnetic feilds from hitting the tv?
Haha... my brother did this to my TV a couple years ago... the colour shift at least for me goes back after a couple of days... so I would just wait a while... for me I just had to keep the 15" speakers at least a foot away from the side.
We are talking about a tube TV right?
Yeah. We just decided to not keep it. The only way we could place it without magnetic interference was in the center of our living room, and that's obviously stupid. It was pretty frustrating, though.
ok... so yeah... i kinda got a bit sunburnt at the beach friday, lol....
pics & divx
2nd thought eww, no... puss and peeling, ugh... unless you have some 'fun' just plain crazy red contrasting with outline of wife beater?
lol well bad enough that i cant wear dress shirts...
hope they dont mind me going in topless tomrrow to work
Yipee!!! I passed my first set of two exams for school!!! Next up is another set of exams (three of them) AND a graded project.....why is it that school is more exciting now than it was 8 years ago....maybe because I'm actually going for something I LIKE to do, hahahah.
So.. you planning or specializing in corporate or wedding type stuff?
Hopefully a little of both. If I have to get my start in corporate, in order to get experience, that's cool. But I'd like to eventually so the wedding side too, since I enjoy the creativity of that.
It's a shame I don't really have any desire to be a caterer....there's a sister here who hires me to cater parties she plans, and she's got me flying back for a formal she's gonna plan later this year/early next year. Should be fun (and profitable!!)
Nice, I guess the corporate although a little mundane, is better for meetings and weekends... alot of luncheons etc. And never on a long weekend. :-)
Yeah. Plus, corporate is cool for travel, and planning convention-type things for big companies.
The weddings are my fave though...there's a friend we have who is getting married in February.....in St. Lucia. And she's having me help plan it. Which means we get to fly for free, and get a big 'ol discount on the room, in exchange for my help.
These are the perks....gotta love it. :)
Ooh very hoydy-toidy!! Very nice! I hear St. Lucia is absolutely gorgeous!!
Yeah, we got the link to the resort, and it is pheNOMenal!!!!!! So gorgeous....it's SO gonna be a great getaway for a week. :)
A week TOO!, *jealous*
So... details? On the beach? Sunset? Peasant blouse, flowers in hair, tiki torches, all guests dressed in white, tapas on sticks? oooh the mind reels.. Ice sculpture that doubles as a martini chiller.. ?!?!
Hahaha.....not a whole lot planned yet....the resort does the BIG details....as for the smaller stuff, that's what she's got me there for. I'm supposed to meet with her this week, before I go....in all my spare time, hahahaha.
Your a funny lady... SPARE TIME!!! LOL
So.. place cards, bombonieres, etc? That kinda stuff?
I am a little upset though....on my first exam, I got a 100, but on the second one, I got an 85....still a B, but I know I could have done better.
Well do you know what you got wrong... like do you feel that maybe the questions were worded a little wonky? Like if the question was strait forward that you know the material and would have got it right otherwise?
Yeah, it tells you which ones were wrong, and where to find the correct answers. Funny thing, the ones I thought I'd get wrong, I got right. And the ones I got wrong, to me, seemed right when I read it. Oh well...it's still a B, which is better than when I was in school years ago, hahahah. :)
Oohh school days, yeah, LOL, I was horrible.
But I totally agree that when is something you actually like to do, that makes a world of difference!!
crazy guy!
haha he's insane
OK, i'm back and more sorer than ever. I'll make a story with the old banged up ride and my new tercel when i get a chance. Actually i'll need to get pics of the car first...
hows it goin buddy? More sore than ever?
hey pat, glad to know you're alive :)
bump
So far, on this moving sale, we've made over $1,000. I now do not mind the moving sales so much.
Final tally......(drumroll, please)
$1,657.00!!!!!!
All the bulky, heavy furniture sold, which means we don't have to pay out the wazoo to ship it to AZ. WOOT!!!
Man, I could really go for some M&Ms right now... DARN you for leaving that company, Mike!!! Darn you!
ARGH!! I knew I missed something on the 'grand tour'. Ah, one more reason to come back. LOL
whats the deal with wikipedia.org?
can anybody just edit stuff on that site? i updated the bio on terrell owens, calling him a prominent gay athlete and it looks like the changes stuck
aw, somebody changed it back
lol, they hate people like you.
the idea of a wiki is that anyone can edit anything. but when people like you and thai go to town with it, it kinda ruins the whole thing. hahahaha
so he's not gay?
wikipedia says he is, so it must be true
ahh sweet sweet
That's the whole point...
troll.
Am I the only one freaked out by what's happening in Isreal and Lebanon this week?
http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/07/14/mideast/index.html
yeah i'm a little freaked out, and shocked that no one really seems to care about it like it's not a big deal, Beirut is just on fire, ladida..
I think the freakiest part is that the Hazbollah hold 28 seats in Lebabnon's parliament and they're listed as a terrorist organization by the UN. Yet, the US remains in Iraq, babysitting a civil war.
dunno about you... but i have fled and am happily in the mountains overlooking the situation figuratively... yes intense, yes VERY interesting, but freaked out.. nope
Am I alone?
Hahaha - no, of course, you're right. I mean, I'm not in a bomb shelter fearing for my life or writing my congressman. I'm just saying it's pretty sad that so many people are dying.
OMG! I'd so go to this if, y'know . . .
The Way Jam ft. Wu-Tang Clan (Method Man, Ghostface Killah, RZA, Raekown, U-God, GZA, Masta Killa and Inspectah Deck) with Rakim w/ special guest Kid Capri , Redman, Jedi Mind Tricks, Rhymefest, Reef The Lost Cauze and B!

need new tires for my car... what do you guys think about these? user reviews seem good. I drive a 2005 Mazda 3 hatchback:
It doesn't say what speed they're rated for - you probably want 120's, being a such a speed demon.
Ooooh, oooh Car talk!! :-)
Just a few questions... what brand and model do you have now? And how many miles did you get on them? Do you have a set of snows? Have you had any flats due to say picking up a nail?
not sure... i'll check
Matt, you should just have sent me a message, I know exactly what tires you should get... we have the same car!! My tires have 26,000 miles on them and they can go for at least another 26,000 miles... let me know if your still interested on what tires to get...
i personally love the BF Goodrich Traction T/A tires. Cheap, reliable, and good performance. Unfortunately none will fit your car.
No Michelin too, weird you would think more manufacturers would make that size.
also good are the Dunlap SP2's. Not as good as the BF Goodrich ones, but they're better than the ones you're looking at.
tienes un linko?
Haha Todd looks like the SP2 are unavailable in that size too...
Closest would be the SP Sport 9000
Sorry to confuse Matt.
these look good, but i'd rather get all-season tires.
my priorities are i just want tires that will last me 40-50k miles that I won't need to change in the winter
these look good but i would rather have all-season tires that will last me 50k miles. i don't want to have to change my tires in the winter
I hear ya! It is all about balance :-) You want to get some real tread wear / all season / good price.
All of which seem to fit the B-list manufacturers that have that size.
From my research, it looks like your car came with Goodyear RS-A's, is this correct? How did you like those? I have had them on a previous car, I didn't like the squeals I would get under hard cornering, (it upsets the passengers) and they wore out too quick. Plus they are crazy expensive for what you get!
I currently have Bridgestone Potenza RE050A II RFT's on my current car, I can't complain too much quiet, but a little too firm as they are runflats. I just checked the price on those and they aren't horrendously expensive.
So... in the end I haven't been any help. sorry
Ever see those little gummy snacks, Crabby Patties, from Spongebob, they're like little gummy hamburgers?
G.R.O.S.S.
I have always wanted to try them and I tried them today out in service and pretty soon i was feelin like i wanna puke
we had to actually stop and get ginger ale for me.. so dumb!!
i still feel icky.. ugh do not get those things
thats another sign for you to move here....HAHAAHAHA
hahaha
have you ever seen this??
haha I had no idea what that word meant. oops.
Ummm... it was my variation of Sweet sweet.
oh well. hahahha
and thats actually one of my buddies nicknames.. haha he has no idea. this is good
You mean 'skeet'?
Yeah. I wonder if Ian knows, cause I was kinda surprised he was letting you get away with it for so long.
i figured he was either testing my mettle or he meant something different.
i almost censored him like 10 times, but then i felt lazy.
Ahh what a buetiful day!. So much to do I just want to be at the beach!
its friday, blow everything off and go to the beach and play!!!
haha unfortunatly thats what i usually do so i haven't gotten anything done. & i REALLY need to get it done today. But i'm sure I will procrastinate at it hahah, procrastination is a viciuos cycle
Weezer broken up for ever ever
http://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/Music/07/14/music.weezer.ap/index.html
it's about time
Ahh Sweet Sweet..
someone else hates weezer...
they were ok... but everytime someone would say they were the GREATEST BAND ever.. i just want to punch them in the mouth..
because we all know O-town is the best.
ti's allllllllllll or nothing it allllll
say it ain't so
This might be one of the saddest things I've ever read. I want to see them live again!
praise the lord!
awwww i thought they were your fav band? hmmm....
I know this isnt gonna be a popular statement but after the green albumn they ran thier course. Maladriod was eh. LOL they really jumped the shark with beverly hills to lol " gimmie gimmie".
They will always have pinkerton though which was an awesome albumn. Love that one it has a real raw feel.
Exactly!
"after the green album" I don't think it took the green album for them to run their course. weezer is one of my all time favorite bands. but they should have stopped after pinkerton.
though the comeback leading up to the green album was exciting for fans.
Ahh Gameboy...
you fixed the remember me... skeet skeet
Im so excited because me and todd and matt got a trampoline last night!!! WAAAHOOOOO!!!
so me and todd were setting it up at 11 o'clock at night. i can't wait to get my jump on!
Haha... this might blow your mind....
SOooo, Alex what about the bent piece... did you get it to work? Or will you need a replacement?
Does anyone know a member of the Northampton, PA cong?
THANKS TO IAN FOR THE "REMEMBER ME" BOX!!!!!!
HIP, HIP.....HOORAY!
yaaaay! i hope it works!!
it works i <3 auto login
Todd, I am SO craving sushi.....next time I'm in Jersey, we are SO going to Fujiyama again!!!
i just threw up a little in my mouth.
Yeah, so this garage sale thing is gonna be what kills me, not the moving. I have to get up at 6am tomorrow, to set up the garage, because I can't do anymore tonight, since the rest has to be set OUTside the garage. Oh, but what I CAN do for the next hour or two, is finish pricing things....VERY tedious work, and VERY draining.
I'm so excited! Funky, Alex, my other roomy, and I made a purchase. A TRAMPOLINE! It's 1/2 assembled, but we ran into a hitch. one pipe is partially bent. Not in a way that it affects the stability of the trampoline once it's all together. I just can't get it all together.
now you just have to figure out how to merge PING PONG + TRAMPOLINE
lol, THIS IS A GREAT IDEA! Alex and I should be able to figure it out.
Heya Gina,
You decided what your going to do with your board tomorrow? Do you get it right away? Will we see pics tomorrow?
yeah i think i've got it set on what i want to do. bottom of board: pink backing (pale pink) my last name in kinda like old english lettering....i'm still iffy on that....but my last name straight across the board and have a spider web go from one O to the other O (in my last name) and have a like a black widowish type spider dangling from part of the web...and all the lettering and web etc in black. then on top, where the grip tape goes, im gonna have a G cut out. and shiny silver trucks.
Amazing dog... only if Montel actually listened to the piece we wouldn't have to re-live EVERY question... ugh!
yeah seriously, he must have been thinking about how to out-do Maury's YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER bit
he's so mad at Maury!! hahaha
I really like that we can log out from wherever we are on this site.!
I just got my teeth cleaned at the dentist. The lady was SO ROUGH, my gums were bleeding all over the place. Ugh.
that was my same experience a month ago. the lady was scraping IN instead of OUT & she kept hitting my gums. I did not like her at all.
This happened to me on Tuesday and all I could think of was- how is scraping metal against my teeth possibly good for me?
Lettin bygone be bygone and so on and so on

Here is resource...
What do I want for lunch today? I'm exhausting myself with the combination packing/getting ready for the garage sale this weekend, and I'm in desperate need of comfort food.
If anyone can figure out how to reset the TV channels on a Nordictrack 9600 treadmill I'll fed ex you pastries. Seriously.
I would have tried calling myself... but I have no idea when you mean reset channels...
Nordictrack Customer Service ...
For questions about parts, service, owner's manuals or non-working products, please call 1-877-993-7999.
I sent them an email. There's a little tv in the treadmill and some of the channels are skipped over when I surf around. It goes: 63-66-70, and I want to watch channel 65.
channel 65 by me is food network...love it!
Page 28 of this manual.. should do it..
Monster... you beat me to it... I wanted those pastries!!
I think I am a little too far for them to 'make it' so D if you were serious... please send them to Gia-Man. =)
Biscotti would make it. I make these great anise-chocolate chip biscotti...
Awesome.... cant wait :)
Hmm - that does seem like it would work, but I don't have the treadmill key. Maybe I can jimmy it.
If I can make it work, I'll PM you (I'm not going to the gym until Sunday or Monday) for your address for pastries. If I can't make it work, would you settle for a tin of cookies sent regular mail for your time?
Well i think the 'key' is just the thing that say's 'hey shut off.. I fell off', I would think it wouldn't run without it. Sure you don't have one?
I think you're right - Biscotti could be coming your way...
This didn't work. :( It's a 9600 model treadmill, the code must be different. I was an extremely sad panda since I could not watch 90210. :(***
I have been looking for the Manual on their website, but that model's manual isnt posted... I'll keep searching...
Yeah, so reading this really quickly, I totally thought you said you'd FedEx "pasties".....I'm thinking, WOW.....she REALLY wants help with that thing. Hahaha....I need to slow down when I read, hahaha.
HAHAHAHa too funny!!
BUMP! The pastry offer still stands.
Ok, ok when I saw your note last night I emailed... and I guess the Canadian customer service is less busy cuz I got a response overnight... this is what I got...
Good morning,
We are unable to proceed your request. The NordicTrack 9600 has several
versions. Some are bikes some are elliptical and at least 20 different
models. Please provide more information.
Regards,
MJ
Icon Canada
SO do you have the specific model? Or can you find out?
Cheers
monster
This is the treadmill:
It's listed as "3000" on the site, but "9600" is written on it. I don't think I can get anything more specific than that - I already got a crooked look from the gym owner when I told them about the channels changing.
So maybe this one...
I emailed back with the number on this page CTK 6502.
Let's see what they come up with...
Yeah, they have both that one and the other one I posted. But they both have the same number written on them "Nordictrack 9600". I don't understand that. Thank you!
PDF just arrived, EZ message me an addy to send it to.
People have never seen the turtle before?
