We're Over Thirty and Obsessed! Just like the title says!

smile.gif Everyone is welcome to post on the OTOs, BUT keep in mind this is a thread for Adults!
How do you know if this is the thread for you?
- Are the kids finally in bed or at practice somewhere and you need a moment with other Roswell Adults?
- Did your kids leave the nest and you no longer have to fight for the computer?
- You have no kids and enjoy posting with other Adult Roswell fans?
- Are you a mature 'under 30'?
Then this is the thread for you smile.gif


~ Poem by John aka Noseedough ~

Friendships are the best ships!
Our fun tips are the best quips,
and our pics...they rule the board
friendships are the best
we're definitely obsessed...
sometimes we may be hazy,
but we never do get stressed.
Some jump right in, don't be afraid
say what's on your mind
never fear...we all have strayed,
but fall right back in line.
We love you when you're different,
we love you when you're not,
we are the OTO's my friend,
the best that you have got!

Tek jero won't be home until Sunday night.

Vicki how was the lake?

Gooder and CAT I saw 'The Mummy' movie today. I have mixed feelings about it.
I liked the scenery, some of the story about Shang-ri-la and the love story with Ming and the witch were good. Jonathan had some good lines. I liked the beginning of the movie too. But didn't like Maria Bello as 'Evelyn' at all. And I didn't like that they aged the son 'Alex' that much. I kept thinking that Luke Ford looked a bit like Brad Pit. I think I liked the first two better, but this was okay. Maybe it needs to grow on me.

di m wave.gif

Still didn't buy paint. It was too hot to buy it early and leave it in the car, and way too hot after to go looking. I'll go after Church tomorrow. I still need to work on the curtains too rolleyes.gif

I have Dragon Wars on, though I'm not watching.
Tekgirl
rotfl.gif Wow, Lori, you are the quickest keyboard in the West. ....My link to the new thread didn't come out as I wanted and I tried to edit what I'd typed and couldn't. The last thread is locked. As I said, you are fast. Would you go back and fix the link to this thread. What I typed looks so......uh.... wrong. sad.gif

And thanks for fixing the link on this thread. I don't know what I'm doing wrong - I think I'm following the BB Code correctly.... <<<sigh>>>

And Lori, we need to get you on a plane in the next 12 months. Wonder Con or Comic Con, you take your pick. Just start polishing your traveling shoes, 'k? wink.gif

Meow Cat, you have a PM. smile.gif

It HAS outgrown it's current location! San Diego is beautiful, but they aren't doing well by the fans by using the small venue there. I'm going by my last year there and reports from Tek and Vicki.
I'm sure Vicki would love it to move to Vegas lol.gif
I would go there. I would love to visit the strip again smile.gif

Tek I think the thread addys were wrong. I recopied those, but everything else was set up correctly.
I would do Vegas or try Wondercon if the $ is there nod.gif

CAT do we get a pic of your new shoes?


Is it bad that even pup is howling at 'Dragon Wars'? look.gif lol.gif
I do love Jason and most of his movies, but sad.gif on this one. I really hate that this one is so bad, because I love dragons and the story had possibilities they didn't work with.
Tekgirl
Lori, thanks for being my personal editor. hug.gif ....I’m glad you’re getting used to your new laptop. You’ll be a whiz at using the trackpad in no time, you’ll see.

Cat, your new shoesies sound very cute. ....Yep, D Wars is very hard to sit through. I may give it a few minutes just to see Jason get some screen time.

Berry, I feel Comic Con has outgrown the San Diego location too, but I spoke with someone who said that they are contracted to hold it there for the next few years. I hadn’t heard about moving the Con to Las Vegas, but I had heard some talk about moving it to Los Angeles; we have a bigger convention center than San Diego. But, until I read otherwise, I guess the 2009 Con will be held in San Diego.

Lori & Cat, it’s my pleasure to start the new thread – especially when you have my back, Lori.

Came back to tell you that Brendan's movie 'Biker Boyz' is just now starting on TBS grin.gif
It's about 8 minutes into it.
I like that movie.

Night!
Tekgirl
Hmmm.... it must be a Roswell week, Brendan in Biker Boyz, Jason in D Wars, and just over a week ago, Shiri inFear Itself.

Speaking of D Wars... My onscreen cable TV Guide gives Dragon Wars 2 stars out of 4 (boy, were they in a generous mood)... and describes the movie "When swarms of fire-breathing dragons attack modern-day Los Angeles, a TV reporter finds himself thrust into the center of a battle against the flying creatures. Jason Behr starts in this effect-filled sci-fi extravaganza. ....Extravaganza????

Shoot 'Em Up starring Clive Owen is on later. That's a much better - and funnier movie - than D Wars.
Vicki
Finally back from the lake. We left at 7am and just got home at 8pm. I am soooo wiped out. Gotta run! sleep.gif

We just got home... Haven't unpacked a thing... All our bags have TSA stickers on them... I expected that because they are all 'heavy' for their size and contain 'metal' rocks! lol.gif...

Tek, you were right to think Comic Con will stay in San Diego for the next few years. here's an excerpt from the Variety article:

as the event has exploded in popularity over the past decade, organizers have found it increasingly hard to ignore the logistical limitations presented by wrangling more than 125,000 attendees into the San Diego Convention Center, where the show is booked through 2012. From fire-code violations to body-odor issues, overcrowding is the complaint on everybody's lips.

"We can't accommodate the people we need to," laments Comic-Con marketing director David Glanzer. "(This year) we had a wait list of exhibitors in excess of 300. We sold out before the doors even opened."

Selling out may be a positive thing in the entertainment industry, but not for a mixed trade show and fan event like this. Between attendance caps and lack of space, the event's board is faced with flat revenue while operating costs continue to increase. According to Glanzer, raising booth and ticket prices would be a last resort. Instead, he says, "We are trying to creatively enhance revenue, and one of those ways is to sell sponsorship signage, something we have done on a very limited basis in the past."

That means Comic-Con may have to embrace the marketing mayhem that became a fixture of E3 before it downsized a year ago. So, even with the convention locked into San Diego for the next four years, cities such as Las Vegas and Los Angeles are actively trying to lure Comic-Con away.

Tekgirl
Berry, thanks for the excerpt about Comic Con. ....Wow! They had to turn away 300 exhibitors? The exhibit hall was bursting at the seams as it was......

Vicki, it sounds like you had a great time at the lake.

WB jero. I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures of your trip. ....I'm going to vote one more time and then it's off to bed for me.

Lori, I'm all spineyes.gif as to why the links didn't set up properly. I copied the url from the address bar. Even if the addy was wrong, if I had done the BB Code correctly, shouldn't the link have posted properly? ...... lmao.gif at your Pup's howling during D Wars. Everyone's a critic. Hey - you could start a new movie review site based on your Pup's reaction to films. You could give movies 1 - 4 bones.... wink.gif ........Wonder Con? That works for me. Wherever we end up. I hope you'll be able to join us. nod.gif

The title of this new thread has another meaning for me - we've just come back from picking up our big son (son#1) from Uni - home for the summer - he is also moving house for next year so he was bringing home everything. Do you need a suitcase I asked - no, he replied I've got everything packed lol.gif This turned out to be about one dozen very large plastic bin liners filled with all his clothes - most of which do not appear to have been washed for an entire year sad.gif His whites are actually yellow and brown uhoh.gif He even admitted that his clothes were so dirty that the local laundry and dry cleaners refused to take them no.gif I now have the bath and every basin in the house full of his clothes trying to soak them to loosen the dirt before washing shock.gif At least his new house has a washing machine in it - but then I think his last one did too. lol.gif

Great photo Bigspam I still haven't posted any of mine.

By the way - it has rained all day to day - maybe it's because all the American's have gone home lol.gif

Won't be on-line much for a week as big son has taken over my computer now he's home sad.gif
HeavyMetalQueen
wave.gif I am so fustrated by this"Active X", it keeps poping up like 3-6 windows overlapping, god this is so annoying!!
Anyhow, I made it in Thanks to all the reports on the comic con, ( although sadly my computer seems to "freeze up" so I can only get 1/2 of one interview,) & I still have to see if the one Dim put up works, for me.
I had a great time at my friends cottage, it looks like I'll be going up to a trailer park( visit) soon.
I love swimming in the lake, & miss that since it's so crappy in town here, I'd never swim in our lakes agian. :barf:
Is everyone in Church then?? seems awfully quiet eh?
I was curious to how & if the fires are out in C.A.? & did anyone see that awfully rock slide in B.C.?? horrible eh..
Well I'm so longing for some of the shows to come back. seems like thishas been quiet a long summer.I even re-watched "Lost" ,form last season, gosh it was good eh. I honestly thought that show was going to be"lost" literely!! it was doing so bad at times eh.

Bigspam- very nice sunset! smile.gif You capured the perfect picture of the evening eh! smile.gif

Berry- I hope your feeling better soon, I know I have alleriges I never used to but they seem to be getting a bit worse ever year. That's awsome your hubby is a fun guy! I like people with funny sence of humour, I find it a bit hard to understand the quiet, collective type of people, as I'm so hyper & well as some people point out to me"so much full of life". ( I blame that on my ADHD really though... lol.gif)
Yeah Cat, I guess you wouldn't like me too much then eh, I am only a "happy chipper"
person in the mornings, if I stay at someone's house, or ( well cottage this week), but yeah I'm a complete B *&)(^# in the mornings, I literely hate mornings, but only put on the front, when I know I have no choice.lol.gif
Vicki, glad to hear you had a wonderful time at the lake, I bet you can hardly wait to go up agian soon eh smile.gif I know I loved spending time near a nice clean lake.
Vinity, I hope your doing okay, I that your migrane has left. How are the horses today & are you all set for gettting school ready for M?
Lori, How have you been?? I saw "The Dark Knight" last night, I thought it was "ok", but not like the "greatest movie of all times at least through this summer". My brother is a "huge" fan of batman, so naturally he loved it more than me.
I actually enjoyed the "IronMan" more.
I have no idea what other movie I'll be seeing next, I saw "StepBrothers" 2 x now.
Welcome Back LTL!! I hope you had a wonderful trip, when your not jet-lagged would you be posting some pictures up??
edit my post.....

I just left for a bit, I have now posted up my computer desk on that kijii, anyways, I hope I get some people asking for it, I need to get rid of it, it's so"junky" looking in here with 2 computer desks, ect.
I'll have to somehow get my camera working so I can post some pictures up here, I still can't get the didgital camera to film a short movie:(, I really wanted to post it up here so you can se my cats playing "nicely", cause sometimes the one will over run the other,he's so mean at times, but I love them.smile.gif

As for me and mornings…. You can check with Vicki, my last roomie, but I don't think I’m grumpy or cheery in the morning – I’m just numb. I need about ˝ hour in bed before I am awake enough to get out of bed without hurting myself.
vilandragirl
Tek, this is true- I was warned. It was cool to see Jason in a movie though. There was even one scene where I saw a little Max. He did his "sideways look" that he does as Max when he's feeling a little unsure.

Just finished reading the old thread.

Berry, that is REALLY cool.gif that you're going to be in DH.

Tek, interesting article about the 6 degrees of separation. I read an article in grad school where someone had calculated how connected Kevin Bacon actually is. Then he calculated every other actor in Hollywood. It turns out that he ranks 669th, and averages being separated by every other actor by 2.83 degrees. OK, I'm all for research, but perhaps some people have too much time on their hands?

TEK 'Mad Men' is on tonight with an encore ep immediately after.
Go to their website if you think you need to catch up. The AMC site did a good job with the character synops to tell you what is going on.

Lori, I just read your post about AMC airing Mad Men, unfortunately, I read it a bit late. sad.gif Thanks for the heads up on checking AMC’s web site for info on the show.

Lori, you’re right, Meghann has been noticeably MIA lately. So has WB. Is she swamped with work or something? .....I am still perplexed by D Wars getting 2 stars and Biker Boys only getting 1 star.

Vicki, your hubby’s fondness for D Wars has me lmao.gif It must be a guy thing or something.....

I saw Brideshead Revisited today. If anyone remembers the BBC/Masterpiece Theater version, this movie will be a disappointment. The movie is OK, but the BBC series was really, really great. Plus, it had Jeremy Irons in it.... smile.gif

Tek you're right about the digital/analog TV. No problem unless you use an antenna to watch over-the-air channels. You don't really need the camera software to use your camera on the 'puter. Most of it isn't very good anyway. On most cameras, you can just plug in the camera into the computer and it will be recognized as an external hard drive and not a camera. Then you just drag and drop the pics into whatever folder you want to save them into. grin.gif

GH, thanks for the info about not needing to install the software that came with the camera. That makes my life ever so much easier. ....Sorry that you’re baking in Texas. I’ve been reading about the awful heatwave that refuses to leave.

Morning guys wave.gif

Man! I've been running since I out my feet on the ground from the bed sad.gif Then Lance tried to drink my coffee and knocked it off the ground. I usually only allow myself one cup but I might make another.

Truck is in the shop, pray they'll replace the worn ball joint. They keep saying it's not worn enough for the warranty to replace Grrr! It's ruined the tire sad.gif I'll have to replace it way early cause it's warn unevenly.

Then the electrician came out to try to find out why the barn more than double in electric last month sad.gif Then the blacksmith came, and then I had to talk twice with the guy who is supposed to fix the garage door which won't open. I'm sweaty and stinky and I didn't even get to ride sad.gif

OMG! a new thread, I was laughing so hard and trying to catch up.

Tek I don't know how you do it (catch up). You responded to my Peets (that what it's called?) post after Comic Con and I posted before it.

Vicki As much as my sister and I warned my hubby, he still wants me to buy it. But if your hubby like it I guess I'll try it with mine. lmao.gif we'll call it the "Testastorone Experiment".


As the day goes by my body gets sorer, I played on my hubby's softball team yesterday because they need another girl and I went 2 for 2, yay.

Di, sorry your feeling all sore, but, girl, you did good batting 2 for 2! ....I’m beginning to think D Wars' popularity definitely is caused by testosterone.... wink.gif

Vin, you do more in one day than I do all week! You must be exhausted. I hope all of your encounters with the tradesmen turned out well.
