Loki Renard’s “The Taming of Miss Munroe” – A Review
Jan 31, 2012 by Devlin O' Neill
I love Victorian language, with its flowery preciseness, except when it comes to matters of any delicacy whatsoever, and then I love its flowery circumlocution. So I truly enjoyed “Miss Munroe,” Renard’s foray into Victoriana. James Walker, the renowned disciplinary expert called upon to sort out Miss Munroe, has his hands full with the girl from the start, and a nobler effort to tame her baser inclinations one cannot imagine. The story is told by his friend Jones, and reminds one of the Holmes-Watson dynamic, with good reason I am sure. In any event, the tale made me smile quite often, and I highly recommend it if you are a spanking fiction fan in need of a smile.
That is all.
Devlin out.
Dev, I need a note to stay at home to read. Pretty please?
Oh, Dev, I know!
I loved the Holmes-Watson effect, also. Mr. Walker did not only have his hands full, but his arms and his legs and etc. Miss Munroe is not like me at all. 
Mindy, Dev asked me to write a note for you, he is very busy writing his pirate book.
Dear Mindy’s work,
Please excuse Mindy today, she will be of little use to you if she came in due to the fact she wants to read Loki’s book. It sounds like a very interesting book perhaps all of you should take a day off to read it.(maybe not all at once). Mindy should of course be paid for the day and someone should get all of her work completed so she isn’t stressed when she returns tomorrow. She should also be given a raise.
Sincerely,
Devline O’Neill’s personal assistant
Oh, Kaki! Seriously?
Hahahahahhahahahhahh
Devline
You typed that so fast so you could run, didn’t you??
ahahhahahhahah
or hide.
That is exactly what I am doing, making bar b que ribs.
Here, here, I’ve got one too:
Dear Mindy’s Boss,
It is our understanding that Miss Mindy, inestimable employee, will need to be absent from your fine establishment for today and possibly tomorrow. It is necessary that she complete the reading of a tome of such importance to the welfare of this corporation that to not do so would delay and impede the growth and momentum of said establishment.
Mindy will undoubtedly return to work on Friday, or possibly Monday with knowledge that will be passed on to other employees and further enhance the stability and good fortune of everybody who knows her.
Sincerely,
Devline O’Neill’s Executive Personal Assistant
Oh god, that sounds good. Can I come eat?
Wait, I like sweet barbeque sauce. Is yours sweet or smoky?
why did you break barbeque down into 3 words??
Isn’t it a great story?
I’m sorry about your ankle. As one who has spent a lot of time is casts on assorted body parts, I can sympathize.
Sure, come on down. Sometimes I write it with caps, Bar-B-Que, I don’t know why. I am just doing country style ribs, the kind with more meat than bone, I havn’t made them in a long time. Mine are sweet, I use Sweet Baby Rays sauce. Mmmm
Sqeeeeeeee! that’s my favorite bar b que sauce!!
I’ll be there in 20 mintues.
Is it soup yet?
It sounds like a great story, I havn’t read it except the snippet in the beginning. I will have to add it to my wanna read list.
Loki, what happened to your pirate song post? *POUT*
Loki, I read this recently, to overcome my disappointment in having to wait a while for the next instalment of Finn
I really enjoyed it, your brats are always so deliciously naughty and, um, misunderstood 
The pirate songs of my people are there Bree :) I was going to wait until I’d done my next rendition (two hands, would you believe it) but I can’t have you pouting.
Thanks dd :) It is a pity you have to wait so long for Finn, isn’t it. We could form a picket line or something. I’ve always wanted to form a picket line!
I know how to do that! I can help!
dd, where have you been?? Kiddies still sick?
You can be in charge of the signs. I want one that says ‘Down With This Sort Of Thing’ a la Father Ted.
She must not have gotten them in time. Oh well, maybe she can use them tomorrow!
Oh cool. I love me a good picket line.
Mindy, I meant.
I wonder if the blite is sick again.
?? Are you DRINKING??
I was cooking and eating dinner and packing minors off to bed. They are currently both well on the road to recovery, thank you Cindy. My last desperate remedy of Chocolate Fridge Cake seems to have done the trick!
Can we wait until it is a little warmer? Or can you man a picket line in a fur coat?
Wow! Let me see, uh, you’re welcome, Loki. Sounds like one of your big fans just happened to drop in today. I kind of thought there had been some Conan Doyle immersion going on. So you’re going to make a picket line to protest your not finishing Finn sooner? I’m pretty sure that has never been done. Two handed piano pirate songs? You don’t say.
Cindy, you behave yourself on that picket line.
dd? Misunderstood? Yeah, right.
Paul, the list just gets longer every day, doesn’t it?
Mindy, we have talked about these work notes before, and as you see, they just keep getting worse every time you ask for one.
And last but not least, Devline?
Two hands?!
Ok. I am sorry, Loki. I er…found it. 
(bree tries to distract Loki with bright shiny things.) 
Deviline.
Is that the effeminate version of Devlin? 
Come on! Get in the car. Loki and dd and bree and all of us are going to Kaki Ann’s for dinner. You’ll have to climb in the third seat way back there… you don’t get car sick, do you?
It’s ribs and really good bbq sauce.
Yes, Devline. We thought it would be better if we tweaked your name just a tad. Beside, Kaki was in a great hurry.
Come ON! I’m hungry.
The next novella in the Finn series was finished (and published on Blushing’s subscription site) months ago. It’s just not available to the general public for general sale yet. So a protest would not be completely illogical, Spock :)
If you keep distracting me, we’ll end up sitting in a puddle of mud wondering where we put our shoes.
There’s on out there and I can’t get to it???
Well, yeah. Who do I need to write letters to? The AUTHOR perhaps, hmmmmmmmmm?
That’s a real good way to get runned over by your fellow picket like walkers, dd.
You can get to it, plus a bunch of other ‘unpublished’ works, it’s just a matter of having a membership to those sites is all.
The author lost control of all that when she sold out, man.
Hahahhahaha. We’ll discuss that further after dinner at Kaki’s house.
Everybody get in the car! You don’t want to get between a girl and her Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce.
But it’s really cold over here, we’re finally getting winter, and those oil drum brazier things don’t look very effective, maybe I could bring along the patio heater.
Cindy, I’ve already said I’ve eaten! Maybe Kaki has ice cream, I’ll swap her some Green and Black’s.
If the puddle of mud is in a spa, I would not mind that at all.
How comes i always miss the new post’s an continue commenting on the old ones!?
Perhaps you have a superior concentration span?
Actually, I do get car sick.
I thought we had an imp bus….
We should ride bicycles. That way you can split up if things get hairy.
then you can sit in front and hang your head out the window, bree!
No, NO BIKES. Supper’s gonna be over if you guys don’t quit fiddle farting around.
I’m hungry. Charlie will have eaten all the ribs.
It might even be better if the bicycles flew like in E.T. the movie, that way we could get to Kaki’s quicker before the ribs are all gone!
Cindy! I am not one of your dogs. Who is driving anyway?
Well, I hope you’re all HAPPY. We missed dinner.
Trying to get you all rounded up is like trying to herd cats.
Awww!! Kitties!
Oh, I always drive, bree. I can’t give anyone that control.
You’re a kitty \o/
Well, Dev has stuff here to eat and drink here.
:cocktail: 
:tea: 
:beer: It’s not ribs, but hey it’s better than nothing.
Dev, you should really give us more than just cake to eat.
I do not know what that means, but that doesn’t look good to me. Now what did I do?
I can’t help it, that is where it showed up.
It’s a person with their arms in the air declaring, you’re a kitty! / Is that helpful?
Jones, never being a man to turn down a drink, would most certainly imbibe with you and offer his opinions on everything from Penny Farthings to the sad decline of the quill.
Devlin knows that a healthy diet is 90% cake, 10% beer. That’s why he’s an expert.
Sorry you all missed the ribs, I have to say they were mighty good. I am really having a hard time not eating the ones I saved for Charley. He knows I made them, they were cooking when he left. I wonder if you can get spanked for that? Ugh, he just found out how sensitive it is when one is spanked on her back with one’s legs pulled towards her head. Yeowch!
Haven’t you read Georgette Heyer, bree? We were thinking of forming a sub-group of her fan club.
I havn’t read her books, dd. Is there any certain one to start with?
Ohhhhh, kaki, really? I don’t think I would like that so very much. That makes me real nervous and light headed. I think I’m going to go sit down for a minute…
Cindy, next time I think you need to ditch them, they slow you down.
What have you been letting him watch or read, Kaki?
Read Fredericka first. It’s my favorite.
There’s that fruit compote thing
And there’s always
I love These Old Shades, but they are all fantastic.
Witching hour, goodnight all.
I love the Witching Hour – Anne Rice!
Night, dd.
That sounds like the Diaper position….owwwie!
Doesn’t he have to be really careful, kaki? He’ll be careful won’t he?
I’m not even going to mention it, kaki. I’m just showing up at the door.
Only make sure that it’s when charlie is at work ok?
Sure, he will be careful, but he seemed awfully happy
when he found out how stingy 
it was 
. Good grief. 
(whisper) “you can come to my house, kaki.”
If nothing else, make sure you got a pillow to put over your head.
dd, the funny thing is he doesn’t read or watch anything. He has learned all this on his own
. I’m just happy he hasn’t thought of corner time, lines or canes, with the exception of the stick from the mini blinds 
but that was a while ago. 
I may need that pillow for somewhere else, Cindy.
Thanks for the offer, I’ll bring my dog
and a bottle 
of SBR. 
Loki! :waits:
Bree, here are the ribs :piggy:
. You kinda have to do them yourself though. 
I don’t know what SBR is, I don’t think.
I got a friend with a plane. We’ll come get you. Just say the word.
And Snoopy can run free with my dogs.
Did she get the figures switched, is that why you are upset? I really do think that 90% beer is high, are you trying to tell us something?
Sweet Baby Ray’s.
Worzel learned the hard way not to use the Diaper position with me.
Snoopy isn’t fixed, I’m sure he will love
your dog. 
I bet there’s a story there. Did it involve getting kicked?
I’ve got an even better idea. A girl I went to college with has offered me her house on Pawley’s Island in South Carolina. I’ve never been there although I’ve been to Myrtle Beach and wasn’t much impressed.
So I think we should plan a virtual weekend, don’t you think? Maybe next weekend.
well TELL her, she might need it!
They’d make cute puppies but Bellshill is VERY fixed.
No! I can get it here. I’ve got a great big bottle of it., I wrote ribs down on the list for next week.
You know miss Cindy, your mighty bossy at times.
No i didnt kick him. That position makes me break wind
And I’m not bossy, my ideas are just better.
I don’t know, kaki. Jays idea might make it even more embarrasing.
Devlin! Pull up a pew, old sausage and help yourself to the cake. There’s plenty to go around. :)
So, what do you do? Put them in the oven and let them cook on low all day? Or do you use a crock pot. God, they sound so good and I am so hungry.
Loki, I never even intimated anything of the sort. Beer is in fact a carbohydrate that goes best with stir fried green vegetables and perhaps fresh chicken breast. Cake is NOT a staple, young lady. Just so we are clear.
Old sausage? Do I have to take away your PG Wodehouse as well?
Stick? A Stick?
That’s it,, pack your bags, you’re coming to my house.
Um, Cindy, why do you think I don’t like that name????
These were the country style ones, I layed them in my roasting pan with a little water and poured BBQ sauce on top, cover and cook them at 325 for a couple hours I turn them around half way and skim off some of the grease. Just make sure you don’t let them dry out but don’t make them to watery. If they are just take the lid off so the extra water can evaporate. I’ve noticed if the meat is more red they are more tender and tasty than if it is that solid pink. I am sure there is a reason but I really don’t like to think about it when I am eating.
Normally I buy baby back ribs and do them similar. I cut them up in single ribs. I don’t do crock pot, I think it makes the sauce too watery and they fall apart, then you have to pick out the bones and stuff.
that’s not what that said before. How did you do that? Do you have an edit button?
Wait – did Dev GIVE you an edit button?
That is so not fair. I have begged for an edit button since the day I came here, but NO, Cindy can’t be trusted with an edit button, why she might do something outRAGEOUS with an edit button.
How come SHE gets an edit button.?
What word?
That sounds nice, I havn’t been to the beaches in SC.
Oh, I like the country style ribs the best. I don’t usually put the sauce on until the end. Maybe i need to do it sooner.
Yeah, I try not to think too hard about the food while I’m eating it either.
I don’t care if you cook chicken, pork or beef, everything tastes the same if you cook it in the crockpot.
Do you cover them with foil for a littl while?
Well it didn’t say “breaking wind” to begin with.
As you girls so often say, I am only helping. You’re welcome, Jay.
So, you didn’t give her an edit button of her own?
I use the lid from my roasting pan, one of those black ones with the speckles. If you don’t have a cover for your pan use aluminum foil. Be careful lots of steam. They need to be covered or they will dry out and not be moist. Oh, I forgot I squirt more sauce on when I turn them over. If you tilt the pan on the side for a minute the fat will pool at the top, easier to skim. If the ribs are solid meat(not much fat) you may want to cut them around half way so they can absorb more sauce.
We’ll bring all the dogs! They can run up and down the beach. It’ll be fun!
cos i’m better behaved than you and the Professor clearly trusts me.
I’ll forget by then so I’ll ask you again when I get ready to make them. Probably Monday, k?
Yeah, she obviously said an almost bad word, so how come she didn’t get a “settle down”?
I suggest we go on strike, Kaki. No more bad behaviour until we get better conditions.
I did not make an issue of this, because as far as I recall, that word has never been forbidden here. However, it is now, and anyone who uses it will be censored and censured.
Because I said so, that’s why.
And Jay, don’t poke the Cindy bear. I mean it.
Yeah, jay. :-P
I bite!
You aren’t going to be happy until you get that big old list of rules you drooled over that was in that spanking machine cartoon.
Man, is it just me or has it been a loooooong day?
And it’s not even 7:30!
Uh oh, sorry Professor.
Wonders what kind of
Cindy is? Maybe a Poo bear? 
Sure, email me when you are ready.
I am a fierce bear!
Is too.
Well it is NOW. It wasn’t a minute ago.
Jay, you are not hearing me. Now settle down. :waits:
DEV! Jay said poo.
If she meant Winnie she would have clearly known he spells it Pooh. Now do you think she needs you to tell her to “settle down” or “that’ll be enough” or the infamous “waiting smiley” or frowney in this case? Hmmm
You can disregard my message.
You know, I bet I can smack that smirk off your face in 5 seconds flat.
Cindy, I will deal with this, thank you.
Thank you, Devlin. Carry on.
I’m going to get my dog. And a ball bat.
Alright Professor, I’ll settle down now. Sorry.
Sorry Cindy.
You’ve totally got your fingers crossed behind your back, don’t you.
If not, then, ok.
Apology accepted.
See you Kaki!
Thank you, jay. Thank you, Cindy. I am going to eat supper now. Play nice. I mean it.
SUPPER! If you’d a just got in the car like I told you to we could have all had BBQ ribs at Kaki’s house.
It sounded so good too.
I guess I’ll just go have a baloney sandwich.
What’s THAT face for?
Shrugs. i dunno, seemed apropriate i guess.
I LOVE bologna. I never eat it anymore, because it’s not on my list of healthy foods, but I did have a bologna sandwich when my mother was here at Christmas. She’s eighty, and I believe if you make it to that decade you can have whatever you want, and she loves it. So I had it with her. Because there’s nothing worse than trying to enjoy a decadent treat while someone is sitting with you acting all superior about it.
I know all about that because I have a friend who won’t touch sugar, and I am forced to eat ice cream in front of her. Sad, but true.
Regarding Georgette Heyer: I have read all her books to shreds, and I have every thing she ever wrote. Kaki, you’ll love them. I reread them whenever life gets too stressful. I just reread The Cotillion. She is so funny– her character names are Dickens-esque. That book has a Miss Butterbanks, and a Fish, and there are Eliza’s and Olivia’s, and if I ever get the flock of chickens I want, they’re all going to be named after Georgette Heyer characters!
The other girls might be off doing errands or preparing supper right now. We pop in and out a lot.
Hhahahah! Chickens, that would be perfect.
I’ve tried 3 times to try and write why I love Georgetee Heyer’s books and it sounds pretentious and awful every time.
Just listen to Scarlet and you won’t go wrong.
But read Frederica first.
You want to go on a virtual getaway to Pawley’s Island weekend after next? Everyone is invited and it will be fun. Bring the doggies, they can play on the beach.
A mashed bologna sandwich is comfort food for me.
Hi, Scarlet.
Thing is…I have never read those books. Maybe I will one day.
I thought \o/ meant something other than a person with their arms in the air declaring something. It does look like something else. Doesn’t it? Or is only me?
Probably is only me….
Not even sugar in moderation?
That’s very sad. It’s bad enough if you CAN’T have sugar, but to willingly just not eat it?
Is she into self flagellation too?
Well it didn’t before, but it sure does NOW.
Thanks, bree!
Well, what do you think it looks like?
Dev, good evening.
Thanks for the recommendation, when I’ve read her other book and caught up with your books, I’ll take a look at that one.
BTW, I loved Erica’s book and told her so.
This is one of my home from homes, please don’t be too good otherwise you really won’t fit in, and Dev needs the exercise.
Warm
Paul.
Or it could have been /o\ too. Either way, it doesn’t look….kosher?
Before or now?
LOL
No, it doesn’t look kosher.
Now.
Thanks Devlin! As for the Holmes / Watson speculation, I may or may not have read a massive amount of Arthur Conan Doyle books shortly before writing this novella, but I think it translated well to the world of discipline, plus I think Jones is far more charming than Watson ever could be.
I think scarlet went nitey night…and Cindy is smashing another bologna sandwich into her mouth.
and Kaki is trying out that new position which shall not be named.
Thanks, bree, that image is now burnt in my eyes.
Yeah, I begged Scarlet to stop by and then I left before she got here. I hate when that happens.
I don’t smash sandwiches in my mouth, bree!
Not now, Bree. I think tomorrow.
Oh, god do you really think so? I was trying not to think about it.
I thought maybe it was for way in the future or something.
(whisper) don’t make me say it.
Why do you smash you baloney? I worked with a couple women that would sometimes get fried baloney sandwiches for lunch. Never appealed to me. Fluffernutters were my thing.
I didn’t bring it up. Someone else did as I recall. I tried that position and did not like it at all! I really don’t allow it.
sounds good to me! Because I totally know what I want to use it for. There is no good substitute for this word. When you need to call somebody one, nothing else works.
You put the balogna between 2 slices of white bread and mash it down with your hand. You can add miracle whip if you like.
Cindy, you are supposed to use ^ ^ so Dev won’t hear.
Scarlet, do you only eat healthy foods?
Dev must have gone out for dinner. This is way longer than his usual tuna and boiled tomatoes or whatever.
Unless he cooked a Special Dinner. And didn’t invite us.
Myabe I will ask Kaki, then.
I can come get you RIGHT NOW if you want. I’m serious. You and
Snoopy. Out the door with me carrying your bag.
Kaki, what do you think \o/ or /o\ really looks like?
I meant the symbols.
I don’t think I have the luxury of picking and choosing, I do however make suggestions, like occasionally a warm up would be nice.
^He might be ready to pounce soon.I am leaving pretty soon anyway. I am getting tired.
^
one looks like a hiney the other looks like the other side.
how about you?
OMG!
Oh! 
Don’t worry, Cindy, they aren’t as reliable as some girls let on. Believe me I know, I still have tread marks on my back from Scarlet and Polly.
^Bottom and front side, yes. Thank goodness. I thought I was weird and I was getting worried about myself yet again. That is what I thought Loki was calling me. Although, I really coundn’t think of why she would do that.^
I don’t know, i was wondering what she meant myself. I thought my mind was in the gutter, but that isn’t anything new.
Kaki I have used them before and Dev just ignores it and says there is a lot of whispering going on.
I think it has to be with us not reading those books, Kaki. Is that right, Cindy?
I do agree that the book is probably best enjoyed with a drink or two, that’s the way the narrator tells the story anyway :D
Cindy, maybe not. You know how men are they always are forgetting. I’ll get up early and start cooking bacon
and he won’t remember anything until I am out the door. Going to lunch with some friends. He will be gone by the time I get back so there is just a small timeframe left. 
I couldn’t figure out WHAT it had to do with the books. I need to go back and read that part again.
Oh, by the way. You are suuposed to have the luxury of limits. But if you haven’t tried it and would like to, that is another story.
Ok, the only thing I can think is that dd replied to the wrong post. Because as far as I know neither of those sets of symbols have ANYTHING to do with Georgette Heyer.
And I wasn’t sure what Loki was taling about either. I didn’t think it was anything bad, but I couldn’t find the kitty in there… well, now wait a mintue.
OMG! Not I am not really sure, but dd said it has something to do with the books or at least implied that.
Yeah, me too. It’s been about a 48 hour day, I’m telling you.
And I have the feeling he isn’t coming back here tonight.
hahahahahh, I bet that would be nice!
LOl
I started to say I thought Kaki was like me and was thanking you for making her see the symbols the way you did. But then I was afraid that I was wrong and you would both laugh at me.
Oh, you don’t need MY help. You are a master at this scheduling thing.
Mind if I take some notes, in case I ever need to know how to do it?
Yeah, it just sounds like whispering. I’ve heard it!
Anyway, I tried to google it and I only saw this one bad reference to it. Why my mind immediately goes there, I have no idea.
Cindy, are you looking this up or something? I really need to go to sleep. I have an early day tomorrow again.
No. Really. It is true.
Hmm, I seem to recall someone saying something similar to me.
No, you weren’t. I dont think she meant anything other than what she said.
I am getting ready to go too. I’ve got clothes to fold and a book to finish reading.
Because you’re bree.
Night guys. I’m going to go sulk for awhile. Have a good night.
No, it wasn’t the same thing at ALL.
And what did you say?
More like paranoid and used to people saying stuff like that to me.
She said she had to do something and I said “here kitty, kitty” and she said don’t call me that.
You said that one night that you were being spanked because you were bree. so i thought other things would apply as well.
OK. Goodnight…
Kaki and Cindy. 
Cindy do not sulk too long. I have been spanked for that too….
I knew you were kidding.
Cindy, only bottoms can hear it, not Tops.
You know what? There is something spooky happening here. Why did those five somments just float down here all by their little selves.
I am getting out of here!!!!!
Cindy, I deleted your comment above, so now everyone will have to reply to the last message in the thread or else the comment will be lost somewhere above. I told you not to say that word anymore today, didn’t I?
So all of you go to bed now, girls. You’ve had a busy day, the lot of you.
Goodnight.
What did I say? Was it bad? I can’t remember saying anything bad……
And why does it say it’s February 1st. It’s stilll January 31.
Goodnight, Dev, Cindy, Bree, John Boy.
I’m sorry, Dev, I really don’t remember saying anything bad.
You are mean. I didn’t say anythign bad.
Wait til Mindy comes here and tries to reply before she reads the comment by Dev. Or anyone else for that matter.
And I’m not going to bed. I’m not tired.
I’ll wait for her so I can tell her. Im not going to sleep now, for sure.
Bree are you stillhere?
The time is still probably GMT so it is tomorrow, well its tomorrow here too.
You changed your avatar, I don’t like this one. It looks sad and frustrated. I like the little girl with pigtails and a book. She looked happy.
Go to sleep or at least go to bed and listen to a story.
I really gotta go this time, you-know-who will be walking in any minute.
g’night
night, kaki ann. Get under the covers and HIDE.
Mindy, in case I dont’ catch you right off, I broke the blite again. I said somethng bad and Dev had to delete my post so you have to hit reply on the last message just like last time. You know what to do. Dev’s message is up htere too high to be of use to people just coming in off the street because I argued for a long time.
So, yeah. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Ok, I gotta go. Mindy I hope you see this and sorry we left it in a mess.
And Dev wasn’t being mean. I really did say it, kaki reminded me. I just forgot I did it.
(Posted for the second time because the first one floated off by itself.
We all float down here.)
Ok, I gotta go. Mindy I hope you see this and sorry we left it in a mess.
And Dev wasn’t being mean. I really did say it, kaki reminded me. I just forgot I did it.
Thanks for the heads up, Cindy. Don’t hide! (I’m referring to your new avatar.) The old one is cuter.
You all have been busy tonight. *Pout* Silly time difference makes it impossible for me to be around when all of you are. It took me a loooong time to read all these comments.
Kaki and Cindy, thanks for the note. It may come in handy despite what Dev says.
Kaki, who’s John Boy? Will you be cooking your bbq ribs again? I love bbq ribs.
OMG LMAO.
Hahahaha no, I wasn’t calling you *ahem* that.
I’m sorry Bree for letting you think that, didn’t occur to me at all. I forget that these emoticon thingies are not universal across the internets.
Here’s the reference to what I was talking about :)
http://xkcd.com/231/
Sorry, Mindy. John-Boy was the eldest child in the television series The Waltons in the seventies. There were I think seven children, the parents and grandparents all living on Walton’s mountain during the depression. At night they would all say goodnight to each other.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cp7_u0kcQRo
No ribs tonight, I wish.
Stupid time zones.
Oh, my! We were way off weren’t we.
Thanks for the explanation, Kaki.
It’s past midnight here and I’m wide awake.
I hate that when I have to get up early.
I suspect that John Boy is a carachter from the tv show The Waltons.
You girls had a lot of fun last night, didn’t you? I read everything this morning, but now I am back to work again. I am crazy busy, more than one bee, I am like a whole hive of bees! But hugs to everyone. Now I must go do bee things, like collect pollen on my legs and turn it into honey. I hope the bees offer lessons in that, or I’m in trouble.
Hi, Scarlet! Sorry you have to work so hard, but I know you like doing a good job of whatever you attempt.
Loki, thanks for clearing that up about the ‘kitty’ thing. I had no idea what was going on, but I was sure you meant nothing harmful by it.
Mindy, I hope you’re asleep. Goodnight.
We? Who is we?
m
‘We’ is perhaps the Royal ‘We’.
Dev, you weren’t supposed to have any idea of what was going on.
Jay, lets hope so.
Jay, lets hope so.
Ooohhh!!!
Thank you for the link, Loki. I never saw that website before. I like it. It is very clever. Definitely one of my senses of humour.
Cindy, you’ve changed your avatar again! Is that poor girl gagged?
No, her mouth is just open, Mindy. She’s talking. Imagine.
