@gumpy if you start humming the theme song to Gilligan's Isle its time to get out. You will have passed peaceful isolation

Don't make me have to come over there and drag your butt out...

Hahahaaahahaha! Y'all aren't right! We watch the flood stage forecast hourly. Our place is about 15' over the biggest flood in the last 100 years. Anyway that's what the surveyor said when they came out and did there thing. Its just the roads get below water not far from here. If we need out my old 4 wheel drive Ford will get us part way up the back side and we can walk the rest of the way to a road. Escape is planned! I really appreciate y'all being concerned for us!

Who lives in a pineapple under the sea.... That's my hubbys favorite.

 

[gumpy]

Sponge Bob is one show I don't care for. It makes me uncomfortable so I don't watch it.

 

[havasu]

Darn Gump, we are starting to get worried for ya. Can you swim?

 

[phideaux]

I prefer Scooby Doo...

 

[The Innkeeper]

I prefer Scooby Doo...

Sorry gotta go with the oldies , Loonie toons, bugs and roadrunner, rocket Robin Hood, herculoids or maybe animaniacs (particularly Pinkie and the Brain)

Scooby doo is older than some of those. Our last set of mastiffs were named Pinky and Brain. The AKC had someone call and ask if it was "The Brain" or just Brain before they sent out her papers.

 

[The Innkeeper]

Oh I know animaniacs is newer but the rest predate Scoobie

 

[gumpy]

Darn Gump, we are starting to get worried for ya. Can you swim?

I was a certified SCUBA through NAUWI Back in the 70'S. Does that count? My wife on the other hand is afraid of the water. Can't swim a lick! Sink City! I'll have to tote her.

 

[Terri9630]

Pinky and the Brain was a 90's creation. Scooby was late 60's. Had to look up rocket robin hood. Never heard of that one. It predates Scooby by only a couple of years. Forget about the flood yet?

Oh wait, I'm arguing with the wrong person!

Herculoids 1966, Rocket Robin Hood, 1967, loonie toons late 30’s maybe, I think you are right about animaniacs late 90s, Scoobie about 1969 maybe 1968

 

[gumpy]

Looney Tunes aren't only on TV. Look at the American Political System!

Hello gumpy... you still up? you posted 15 minutes ago... I just woke up from a 3 hour nap.... It's sad that I'm happy about that.... A whole 3 hours!

A least it wasn't a 3 hour tour!!!!

 

[Peanut]

I see timmie is up! good morning!

 

[Peanut]

Now timmie has gone away... People don't die from old age... old people die from lack of sleep!

Somehow I fell asleep! I've been wrestling alligators all night again tonight. This sciatica attack will not let up! Prayerfully it will be better by the time the rain stops. (40 days and nights, lol) my wife says that when something like this happens God is trying to get me to slow down and rest. I can't help it. I like to work and I do everything wide open as a case knife!
Rome wasn't built in a day though so maybe I should slow down.

 

[Sewingcreations15]

Oh sorry to hear your back is still playing up @gumpy hopefully the sciatica will ease up soon . It is painful I know.

 

[Amish Heart]

Flintstones.
Meet George Jetson......
Are you staying dry, Gumpy?

 

[gumpy]

It's started sprinkling bout an hour ago. The meteorologist keep changing the forecast on the rain amounts. We just listen the best we can and don't worry.
We are in good hands!

I agree with your wife. Take it easy. Give your body some time to recover.

Boy do I feel dumb! I opened a can of planters honey roasted peanuts for a snack. After my snack I couldn’t find the plastic lid. I soon had every light in the kitchen and living room on, even had a flashlight looking under furniture! After a 20 minute search I realized I’d stuck the lid onto the bottom of the can of peanuts….. talk about a senior moment!
