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!

Just editing my brains out after taking 6000 frames this season so far.
CBS/MaxPreps has asked me to shoot the CIF State Cross Country Finals the weekend after Thanksgiving so the editing won't be slowing down any time soon.
WW is doing well. Still taking the oral chemo.
Vinity
Spam~ Glad to know WW is doing well. I feel for the editing. I took 2000 pics in the Mediterranean and haven't even DLed 800 to the puter yet.

Is anyone using a registry cleaner they really love?

Must hit the bed. I've been silly and committed Lance and I to a show this weekend and of course, I made it worse by it not even being a schooling show. It's a USDF finals....Gah!!

Happy Veterans Day.

I have the day off from work today, to bad I didn't find out until 8:40am today when my boss called to let me know regional centers are closed uhoh.gif , so now since I'm up I'll probably do some work anyway.

Groundhog I heard Dido came out with a new CD.
Sugarkane
wave.gif Yes that is Dennis Quaid. Btw, I haven't watched GW in a while. Now that I hear what's going on I HAVE to go watch it now!!! If it's what I think you guys said (it was blacked out), TPTB are stupid. But, we already know that don't we??

Vin I use RegSeeker. I've never had a problem with it. Always be careful when dinking with the registry. You also need to get SpyBot Search and Destroy and AdAware. Those are both good also.

It's really irritating when I go to post and MB pops up an ad window behind the main window. I haven't found a way to block that yet. crusher.gif

I'm using Firefox with popups turned off but I still get some. They're called pup-unders because they show up behind the active window. I'm not using a separate ad blocker program. Which one are you using?

I use Firefox and spybot and adaware. I still get what you are calling 'pop unders'.
Please let me know when you figure out how to stop those.

I do not have a problem with the pop unders. I get no ads on most of the websites I visit. I love it. I use Firefox and also have an additional pop up blocker.

Lori, I posted another reply on the Heroes board. wink.gif

Vicki how is your shoulder today?
Nana J.
Hi! Can someone enlighten me about Fanforum? It has been down for days.

Watcher - I'm enjoying your poetry. Poetry--lyrics mostly, is my thing, too.

Vin - Good luck on the horse show you signed up for.

Lori - Am going out with some sort of treats Friday for the children in Carleigh's class. She turns 7 on Friday. Any suggestions?

Nosee - Victoria's Secret was in our news tonight. Not good publicity.

Spam - I recognized Dennis Quaid. And Yes, it must be one of the twins. I'm glad to see they are well now. The Quaids sure had a scare early on when the hospital gave the twins the wrong dosage of a medicine.

A baby girl was born today to one of our friends. Welcome, Ava! My daughter seems to have a knack for guessing the sex of an unborn child. She picked a girl for this friend early on and was proven right once again.

GH - I saw that interview with Edgar Mitchell. Verrry interesting.
Lori R
Nana if it is a food treat, nothing to messy to clean up. Cookies or rice krispie treats are good.
If it is a non-food treat, then pencils, little note pads, small crayons smile.gif
No idea on the other place.
Vinity
Hey everyone wave.gif

Hey NanaJ grin.gif
Berengaria
Don't worry about that other place,Nana J. They are just upgrading and doing some maintenance. It is taking them longer than they thought it would. But be patient...it wasn't hacked or anything. Jerry posted today that he hoped to be back on linelater tonight or early tomorrow.

Hi there OTOs! wave.gif

I just got an e-mail advertising this ...

he Sopranos: Complete Seasons 1-6 DVD Gift Set

For six seasons, fans devotedly watched Tony Soprano deal with the difficulties of balancing his home life with the criminal organization he leads. Audiences everywhere tuned in to see the mob, the food...

Our Price: $399.99 eek.gif

That's an offer I must refuse. look.gif

Still fixing the walls in my bedroom. rolleyes.gif All I started out to do was paint! Then I saw all the 'sins' from when Hubby did the walls...

Me neither sad.gif Although I've only had a couple so far. I'm not sure why they're there though. We always said we wouldn't have pop-ups on MB... But I know we rely heavily on the ads to pay our way, so maybe pop-unders were thought to be less irritating look.gif I know they don't really bother me all that much.

Sounds a lot, but when you divide it by 6, the price per season is what I'd expect to pay for a full season box-set over here. So it's not a bad price really... Still would have me running in the opposite direction though! lol.gif I dread to think how much I've paid for box-sets of DVDs over the years eek.gif

Watched the entire S2 of Jericho recently, it was very good I thought, and took the series in a direction I didn't expect shock.gif

Have just bought the complete Buffy series DVD box set for £60 which is approx US$95 smile.gif I never really saw it on TV because like Roswell it was on at the wrong time so looking forward to sitting down comfortably and watching it over the next few months at leisure glow.gif

Durring the writers strike and while I was working in the studio I was watching Vernica Mars 1st season, Dead like Me, Wonderfalls and of course, as always, Farscape. Kidlet and I are watching Buffy together. We are up to season 5, I don't know what I'll do about season 6 eek.gif I don't think there are some scenes I can stay in the room with my 15 year old son and watch.
Nana J.
Thanks, Lori, for the treat info.

Vinity - Michael is fifteen? Groan. Time flies. I remember that he was about my grandson's age, and Stephan is fourteen. But it doesn't seem possible. Are you still home-schooling? We are having trouble keeping up with the new fifth grade math!

Berengeria - Thanks for the fanforum info.

Spook - What grade is Pip in?

Jero - Am sure "grandpa" will enjoy the time together as much as any birthday gift. My husband has reached the point that he doesn't want gifts.

Oh yes, he has his driver permit eek.gif lol.gif Yes, we're still homeschooling. He's blossoming in that environment. I have the advantage of my husband, he's gifted in math, sciences, geography and history. Michael is also gifted in these areas. He's in 10th grade and already in calculus, DV actually does most of the teaching. I just keep the kid working and do English and Art. He has to do Spanish from the puter, neither DV nor I have a second language. His national testing scores are all above 95% {except English which lags a bit under that. His core score is 95% {English + Maths} Next year he'll start some courses at the community collage. We have gotten involved with the local Homeschooling association. They have a lot of High School kids. They have sports teams, dances, proms, a yearbook and graduation.

Remember everyone Brendan is on Bones tonight. He's Booth's brother?? grin.gif
