Simple question ... double homicide ... technically that is a single event, therefore just one murder, yes? Not that I have any prospective victims who are turning my hair greyer by the day and adding more wrinkles than I can keep up with!!! How have the rest of you survived puberty and teenagers? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I guess we are being punished for having fun by ourselves instead of having our kids earlier.

Melissa, I'm at your table!

I want a seat at that table... It's the one every body will be staring at. Kinda like the table in the caf with the tray full of shakeson it. You know it's coming, but when?

Glenn Lianos

apparently Lyn you have 2 murders in you...we've moved you to the next table over

Lynn, Technically I believe that Teenager Homicides are classified as Mercy Killings and thus do not count against your total! (mercy - puts both teenager and parent out of their misery!) I HEAR you!

Hey everyone if you get a chance look at Ellen Paquette (boudreau) profile. She has our southside yearbook pictures. To funny. I'm still in shock over the glasses my dad used to buy me to wear. I wanted the cool ones not the nasa ones.

Larry, Our parents lived to teach us a little humility. Now it’s our turn. The funny thing is, the glasses you were wearing back then ARE the cool glasses now. You are just ahead of your time.

Also, it’s come to my attention that no one has confessed any crushes. This mostly matters if they pertain to me or are particularly scandalous or, if I haven’t mentioned this…if they pertain to me. Okay, nix that, I’m interested in ALL crushes. (I'm so back in high school.)

Remember if you torture me (LARRY) I still have only been divorce and I’m now sitting at a table of sympathizers. You tease at your peril.

Glenn, I believe that Rob has come to my defense and we should be allowed back to the One Murder table. Rob, do you agree? Melissa, can I count on your support?

By my estimation there will be one table with 50 or so and the rest of the tables will seat 10 each. Let's get some guidelines going. My vote is for the sought after table to be those who have their ticket punched for divorce, but not murder. I would also like to have as a stipulation having survived parenting at least one child through teenage years. It just so happens I meet all of the above criteria. One question. What is all this talk about how tough it is to parent teenagers? My sons are "Mary Poppins" kids, you know "practically perfect in every way." Of course if anyone needs the name of a good juvenile defense attorney in the North Atlantic region, please email me. Remember I did write "practically" perfect.

Can we have a man bashing table? Just a thought.....still waiting on what the hell we are eating!

07/27/09 07:58 PM #226    

Donna Keenan (Grady)

We don't have to sit at it..just an empty table in the corner....LOL

Lyn,
Tim and I agree, public service isn’t murder.

You’re welcome at any table where we’re sitting. Plus it will do you good to sit at a table where “practically perfect” teenagers have been raise. Really…it will be inspirational.

You might also want to take a few moments and sit at a table of empty-nester. It will be easy to spot them. Everyone will be well-rested, happy and their wallets will be full of cash. They will smile knowingly when you tell them you have two children at home. They will give you hope.

I cannot sit at the man-bashing table. But I can sit at the “still bitter” table. I’m sure to have many wanting to join me. For my money, there’s nothing more appealing than bitterness.

I will not be sitting at the “you look too young for this to be your 30th” or the “you were always so dignified” table. I’m hoping to sit at the “Were we this interesting in high school?” table. So far, things are looking pretty good.

Lyn...As much as Rob has a clever defense it is based on misery loves company. Sit wherever you like...but you're only getting a butter knife and a spork.

Donna...It's been my experience that every table is, was and shall be the male bashing table...


MMMMMMM Margo, bummer. I don't have divorce.( If you ask my wife, I'm sure it's soon) I'll have to make eyes at you across the room.

Melis...as far as crushes go hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Donna...It's been my experience that every table is, was and shall be the male bashing table...


Ok and it has been my experience that every table is a woman/wife/mother being taken for granted table....LOL

Glenn Lianos

Good point...we'll need extra seating and a seperate bartender.

07/28/09 12:13 AM #231    

Robert Ferendo

Bartender!!!??? NOW we're talking...Donna, what the heck were you focused on food for!?

Glen...not so sure about the SPORK...arent those good for flinging peas across the room...we may end up back in the Great Food Fight...Especially with all this angst over teenagers, ex-spouses, un-appreciated moms...sounds like we're spiralling out of control!

07/28/09 01:08 AM #232    

Glenn Lianos

Yes...but at least sporks have not been known to kill anyone, yet. We'll make sure the bartenders have some Xanax too.

There is someone who has been mocking me with private messages about his crushes. The latest clue is that her last name began with a “W.” I was pretty certain it was Joni Whitcomb. Everyone was in love with Joni and why wouldn’t they be? She was/ is adorable. But then I looked in our yearbook and saw that we had lots of cute “W” girls; Valerie Walker, Nancy Warden, Billy Warren, Patty Winn, Debbie Wood, Jan Wurtele, not to mention Sandy Wurwicz who is still smokin’.

I’m going to need more clues. Does she, for example, work with Scott Ireland?

We need more cheerful (or at least positive) table names. How about the 'was bitter, got even, now very happy' table.

Larry, the correct fashion description for your glasses is 'classic', or at the very least memorable. Whenever I see the Verizon guy I think of you. They interviewed over 1000 people for that job looking for someone memorable and chose the guy who showed up wearing his own (your) glasses.

Karen Dobrowski (Hernandez)

Wow. Y'all got busy last night! I like Colette's table suggestion: 'was bitter, got even, now very happy' Works pretty well for me!

No matter how you look at it, a few tables are going to have an awful lot of chairs around them!! Especially the one with the bartender!


07/28/09 11:12 AM #236    

Donna Keenan (Grady)

How about was bitter..still semi bitter..got half his 401k..half his retirement...hee hee hee

07/28/09 11:13 AM #237    

Donna Keenan (Grady)

Loving my late night chats with Rob. I don't know how exists on such little sleep. Rob I woke up at 10:20..my first thought was how the hell did Rob get up and go to work? Thank God I don't have to work until 3!

Margo Ceplinskas (Pinc)

I'm beginning to think we will be playing musical chairs while dining. Although there are so many great choices, I hope to sit at the "so happy to be here" table.

Melissa Turner

My only problem with that, Collette and Karen, is that I sort of like the idea of my husband seeing a table with “One Murder in Me” on it. He’ll think…They’re everywhere!

It’s been my experience that husbands enjoy a party more if they believe they have something in common with the other guests (I think of it as a husband play-date.) If he thinks other husbands are a little twitchy, he will enjoy himself more. This is my reunion, but I want Tim to have fun too.

Donna Keenan (Grady)

I just want to dance..and not to the stupid ymca song..give me some Flo Rider

07/28/09 01:22 PM #241    

Robert Ferendo

Melissa ! Sure you want him to have fun..the threat of Murder ALWAYS worked that kind of magic on ME! Girl, we gotta talk about your approach! Lol
