How many boating beauties are there?


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:00 am:

Good morning from Minnesota. Don't know what's so good about it other than I woke up on the right side of the ground. Pouring rain out there......again!! Oh well, means we don't have to water the plants again.

Have a great day everybody!!


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:01 am:

3, and they're adorable, along with the rest of the pictures!

An unprecedented 4-way tie this morning


By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:01 am:

There ya go Charlie; a 4-way tie.....


By sometimesyooper (Nancyd) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:04 am:

3 and what beautiful photos (I know I'm too late!) 7 days and counting....


By Janie T. (Bobbysgirl) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:05 am:

4 ties for the Early Bird today! Now that's SISU!!!!


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:08 am:

Is this a great site, or what???


By Charlie at Pasty Central (Chopper) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:09 am:

That's an interesting anomaly I've never noticed. When the four messages were originally posted, they were all time-stamped with 8:01. Apparently Steve and Paul went back and edited their notes, re-stamping the time.

proof

Yes it sure is Deb!! Great site created by great people, for great people!


By Charlie at Pasty Central (Chopper) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:14 am:

To complicate matters, the re-stamped time is only on the moderator's dashboard.


By Donna (Donna) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:15 am:

LOL..Hilarious Deb..."I woke up on the right side of the ground"...hahhaaa....

And it's raining there? I woke up to 48 degrees outside...no rain tho. (No shoveling either, eh Deb!! It's liquid snow! LOL)


By RD, Iowa (Rdiowa) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:15 am:

I say we call for a Congressional investigation into the time-stamp scandal.


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:23 am:

I'm with RD. I don't think it's fair that we can't see the restamping of the original stamp...........or whatever, lol!!


By Pat & Glenda (Gormfrog) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:29 am:

Secrets are things we give to others to keep for us.....mystery, probably not for long!


By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:30 am:

Actually for some odd reason, I posted the exact same message twice at 8:01 (even though I know I only hit the "post" button once). Once discovered, I went in and edited the second 8:01 post with "There ya go Charlie; a 4-way tie" and left the first one alone.

Beats me as to why it does that either. I just hope this doesn't result in a bunch of hanging and/or pregnant chads....


By Steve Haagen (Radsrh) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:31 am:

When I tried to post I got an error and was locked out? I used the back button and re posted and it worked?? Dont know if it was all the traffic trying to post that caused the error but it has happened in the past and I was not able to post at all.


By Alex "UP-Goldwinger" (Alex) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 08:39 am:

Sounds like another "hanging chad" incident. :)
By the way Charlie, you are going to have to build a bigger coup for these birds...it's get'n crowded.


By Marianne Y (Marianne) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 09:23 am:

Good Morning! We have a second beautiful day in the neighborhood, before more of the humid heat returns here. Awesome pictures today. I especially love the flowers, with the buttercups in front of the waterfalls, and the bull moose in the water, photos. Thank you for a great start to the day. And, congratulations to Deb S., Janie T, Steve, and Capt Paul on their 4-way tie for the Early Bird this morning; I don't remember that happening before!


By Uncle Chuck (Unclechuck) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 10:35 am:

Really like the Smith Fisheries, wish I was out there in my boat right now, or back there in the woods with Marty 4 wheelin!


By Uncle Chuck (Unclechuck) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 10:38 am:

Actually the whole review today is very nice!

Hey UC ~

Big news for our NMU hockey team:

MARQUETTE -- Northern Michigan University President Les Wong presented a proposal to the NMU Board of Trustees to join the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) if an invitation is made by the league.

THIRD DAY...what's happened to the Still Waters facility?

Mary says: The Still Waters facility was purchased by a developement company, which renovated the facility and reopened it as an Assisted Living/Memory Care facility.

I have edited a number of my messages — after the fact — often more than a few minutes after the initial posting, and I have never seen them acquire a new date/time stamp. Nor will the "Messages since I last checked for new messages" search recognize them as 'new'. Likewise, the moderator's blue editorial comments added to a message also do not ever cause the message to be recognized as 'new'.

That wouldn't surprise me — an administrative 'feature' not shown to the general public!
This message was edited by the author at ≈12:35PM (The original time stamp was 12:25PM.)

Shouldn't all this "hanging chad" and congressional investigations talk be moved to the "Politics and Religion, Ketchup and Gravy" page? :) I always love seeing the pictures from past years. It brings back some fond memories of many different times, places, and people.


By Thomas Baird (Thomas) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 03:12 pm:

Great, especially the flowery ones.


By Uncle Chuck (Unclechuck) on Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 03:41 pm:

Jbuck- That would be great news and I would think, save our university a few dollars. They were in the WCHA for awhile years back if memory serves me correctly. Either way, they're still our team and I can't wait for the next National Championship! Besides, Tech could use a big brother! LOL, Cap., Marianne etc.....

After reading all of these, I'm glad I'm not the only one having problems posting early in the morning. Sometimes, I watch carefully but the new day does not show up until 8:06 or 8:07 and already has postings with answers by the time I see it the first time. I've even posted on the day before with Good morning (because that's all that shows up for me) at 8:02 or 8:03am only to find that other people have posted on the current day at 7:55am or so but I couldn't see that. I'm not sure why this happens and in the overall scheme of things, it's not important. Just good to know I have company.
