No pictures of the balls? - Yolanda
fathy (mezo0) on Twitter - http://twitter.com/mezo0
This Twitter account freaks me out. Look at those posts - Rochelle from Bookmarklet

Er... how does this creep have followers? Do you know who this is? - Jason Huebel from Android
Jason, no idea who it is. - Rochelle
Something tells me that this guy doesn't realize that this Rochelle isn't the Rochelle he's looking for. If he *IS* after this Rochelle, some bitch is gunna get cut. - Akiva Moskovitz
Jason, the followers are all the porn/spam types. - Matthew DeVries
Matthew, I think he meant to post "insh'allah" - Spidra Webster
I had IHOP's Gingerbread Pancakes for breakfast this morning. They were delicious but now my gut feels like UGH.

=/ Hate when that happens... Might be a good reason to find/make a gingerbread pancake recipe for home though! - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
The lady at the check in desk was pretty rude. She asked how many in our party and I said two (it was my dad and me and Audrey). When they called my name, the lady acted all offended that it was actually two adults plus a baby. I hadn't counted Audrey because she didn't need a chair and wasn't eating anything. The lady said, "Well, having three changes EVERYTHING." They then made a big... more... - Rochelle
@mezo0 I don't know you. You must have the wrong person.
@mezo0 What? Who are you? What do you mean you are coming for me?
@taaisfonseca You said "@Rochelle te ama mais que todas, responde ela *-*" to me but I don't know what that means.
Near an auto shop called LUBE-A-LOT.
I bet they get some slippery customers... - Ian May
I hear the 2-for-1 special can't be beat. - Steven Perez
That's right next door to the That's What She Said Emporium (The FFundercats monetization plan) - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
I like big muff(lers), I cannot lie - Spidra Webster
Good, my tailshaft is a little dry...err.. - Mo Kargas
When I did a cross Canada trip, I got my oil changed at a place called "Mr. Lube" and their slogan was "Doing it, Right before your eyes" - Matthew DeVries
I HAVE TO PUSH THE PRAM A LOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT - Akiva Moskovitz
One of my favorite high school teachers used to give a short motivational speech to his classes on Fridays. He was one of those teachers that everyone loves and becomes a local legend. He retired last June and had a huge party. This September, instead going back to school, he started a blog and posts his motivational thoughts for us each Friday. :)
It's been really cool seeing old classmates commenting on his blog. I look forward to his post every Friday. - Rochelle
Be even better to know the link - it'd be interesting to see what he offers. :) - Raymond Marr aka Knatchwa
Thanks for the prompt response and link it's appreciated. - Raymond Marr aka Knatchwa
I love that he leaves off each post with the same advice. did he do that in class, too? - Nathalie, Dreamer of FF
Nathalie, he did! That exact same thing. :) - Rochelle
that is so awesome!! what a gift that teacher is! - Nathalie, Dreamer of FF
Had a teacher back in middle school, Mr. Roach he is one of those who really took the time to make sure the kids enjoyed what they were learning, it is to bad that over time we lost touch but it is amazing a teacher continues what he has started even after not being on the job. It must of truly been a passion of his. - Raymond Marr aka Knatchwa
Awesome. I want to subscribe to that. I miss teachers like that. - joey
This is so cool, I hope that I'm a good teacher like that =D - Marissa
wow, that is very cool! - Loc
That's awesome =) - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
@taaisfonseca What? I don't speak Spanish.

Offbeat Bride | Chinese/Jewish wedding with a breastfeeding bride from Whitney Lee Photography
Offbeat Bride | Chinese/Jewish wedding with a breastfeeding bride from Whitney Lee Photography
I love those and I love her dress. - joey
Awwww! ♥ ♥ - Zulema ◕ ◡ ◕
great skin. on the bride. - Morgan Haley
So unique and beautiful! - Carmen
Loved the little decorations on the cake. Her tattoo is beautiful as well. - Yolanda
Once you find somebody's underwear, the party's over.
I'll be needing that back you know. - Sparky Crocker
or it's juuuuust starting! - veo
Depends on the age of the people at the party - Matthew DeVries
Yeah, I totally disagree. Heck, it isn't even a party until the midgets and the guacamole are in play. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
FUCKYEAHGUACAMOLE! - JA Castillo
Depends on where you find them, and where you were looking :) - jcunwired
Thankful for Her
Motherhood
Healing
Amazing, but confusing, that babby is obviously 4-5, but that emergency(if it's American, not sure if other countries use that kind of incision for routine C's) C-Section scar/bruising is a month old at the most - Matthew DeVries
*sniffles* - Yolanda
Beautiful. - Holly Rae, FFer
Reminds me of The Shape of a Mother - http://theshapeofamother.com/ - Galadriel C.
Matthew, the story is that the mother's incision didn't heal properly and she had to have a revision surgery recently. - Rochelle
Galadriel, that's a great website. - Rochelle
Watching the memorial on TV for the police officer shot and killed in Seattle last weekend. I know people generally have a tough time with things like this, but the news reporters are saying the stupidest things. "The mourners appear to be showing grief." "You may not be able to tell, but tradition plays a role in memorial services like this."
The dire standard of most TV news reporting means that I am not in the slightest bit surprised at these quotes. I almost never watch Cable news networks - not any of them. - Ian May
*facepalm* - Josh Haley
The news reporter is crying so much, she can't talk. Honestly, I probably would the same but that's why I'm not a reporter. - Rochelle
Dear local news channel, please put actual content on your website. I don't want to read a headline and then have to watch the dang video to get news from you. This just means I'm switching to your competitor. Love, Rochelle.
This practice drove me from CNN. - Matthew DeVries
Where do you get your news now, Matthew? - Marty Bonner
Up until last week, a compilation of RSS feeds from various sources, trying to balance left right middle world national and local. - Matthew DeVries
Now for the most part I use @palafo/breakingnews - I wish I could get an RSS feed of that group though. - Matthew DeVries
@mezo0 Huh? I'm confused.
This was what was sent to me (which I responded to with the above): "@Rochelle wait me i need u &me to gather u my wife u 4get" -- DO ANYBODY KNOW WTF THAT MEANS - Rochelle
Great voicemail from my mom. Her computer at work broke and the IT guy came to look at it and told her that it broke because she has a microwave sitting on the counter next to the computer and the "waves" are interfering with each other. She called me to ask if that's true. *sigh*
If it has a Wi-Fi connection and she's unable to access anything over the network then that could be true! Microwave ovens use the same wavelengths as 802.11b 802.11g WiFi. - Nick B.
Nick, it's not a network issue. She's saying it BROKE. It won't even turn on. - Rochelle
In that case the guy should get an award for top BS then... - Nick B.
That guy should be friends with the IT guy at my old job who tried to tell a coworker of mine that .docx is a Photoshop extension. - Rochelle
does microwaves interfere with all wi-fi including 802.11n? I don't have n so I'm not sure. - Alfredo
Mind you, I am glad that OpenOffice opens docx files now. Was an issue for a little while, and I don't want to spend good money on that eye candy popping POS from MS. It was another MS ruse to get everyone to upgrade from 2003 to 2007 of course. No wonder Gates has so much money. - Ian May
Rochelle - If they put a plasma ball inside the microwave, that could break a computer http://www.youtube.com/watch... - Matthew DeVries
I find it believable, my Microwave causes the lights to flickr because it's connected to the same circuit. If she's on the same powerline, it could fry her hard drive or it's power source with power surges. - Davis Freeberg
I told her that she could break the computer if she put it IN the microwave. - Rochelle
@mezo0 You'll com back again what?

STOP LICKING - Rochelle
Oatmeal is Good for the Heart
breakfast: fresh banana oatmeal w/brown sugar & flax seeds
the MOST delicious oatmeal
bombshell tip #2: oatmeal
oatmeal with caramelized bananas and drizzling of maple syrup
Oatmeal is... :) - Rochelle
...gross! :) - Akiva Moskovitz
delicious! - Dragon Goldmaple
The texture is what is getting me. I'm trying really hard to like this stuff. - Yolanda
Yolanda - the texture of oatmeal is what gets me, too. That's why I find I really like baked oatmeal. I find the texture much more to my liking. - Katy S
How is she doing with her sleep since the surgery? - Laura B coughin'
:) That is a great pic! - Michelle Martinez
awwww.... I want one! Lubs sleepy baby times. - Yolanda
With your Gnomedex shirt no less. Audrey will be geeky (in the good way) by osmosis. - Kevin Pedraja
Laura, she sleeps great during the day! Night time is a different story. Much better in terms of snoring and gasping but she's still super needy at night. - Rochelle
Kevin, yep! Have you seen her use the computer? http://akiva.posterous.com/audrey-... - Rochelle
LOVE - Shevonne
cute =] - Marissa
She's gaining weight in her face. Good girl! :) - Louis Gray
Awwwwwww..... :D - JA Castillo
Sheets: Cute/cozy or ugly/weird?
sheets.jpg
It reminds me of camping or staying in my family's cabin on Manitoulin Island. That doesn't really answer your question, but it's what came to mind. - joey
I don't know, but I *do* want to crawl right in. - The Bohemian Penguin
Are they flannel? - SAM
If the sheets are flannel: cozy. If not, weird. - Michael R. Bernstein
But even if weird, not ugly IMO. - Michael R. Bernstein
I think they are fine. I used to have flannel sheets with pictures of a moose with a red nose. - Michelle Martinez
They're jersey cotton. - Rochelle
I approve. Weirdly cute and cozy it is! - The Bohemian Penguin
Jersey, as in a knit like a t-shirt? Definitely weird. - Michael R. Bernstein
are they clean? then I approve. - Sarah is Novembery
They've very clean! Brand new today. - Rochelle
I love cotton jersey sheets but I don't have any for our queen bed. - joey
Agree with Michael... but think jersey is close enough. Do you make Akiva dress like Al Borland before coming to bed... er um... don't answer that. - SAM
No. A couple of issues: jersey sheets stretch all out of shape, just like tee shirts do; I like the plaid, but I would like it better as an accent to some solid or damask sheets; the plaid would be less chi-shattering if it ran parallel... Otherwise, cute and cozy ;) - Bren, Photophobe from iPhone
Parallel to the edges of the bed, that is - Bren, Photophobe from iPhone
WELL I LIKE IT SO YOU CAN ALL GO TO HELL FRIEND FEED SUCKS!!!!!!! - Akiva Moskovitz
its what you think................ - VAL D.
Val, how many times are you going to edit your comment? I've seen very 3 different comments here from you now. - Rochelle
I changed that last one because it seemed sexist.........and thats only my 2nd :) - VAL D.
The sheets look cozy and comfy! - vicster
Sweets could never be too cozy. - Derrick
ugly/weird for me...but it seems more manly - Shevonne

Granny Globetrotters Show Off Skills On Basketball Court
"Watch out for the "Granny Globetrotters." The group of ladies may be in their eighties, but they still play a mean game of basketball. Don't believe it? Just see for yourself." - Rochelle from Bookmarklet
are their free throws 'granny shots'? - Alfredo
omg...........wow...........today I went to the bank and I walk with a cane and an old nun beat me to the head of the line................ - VAL D.
starting to think maybe I should use the cane more like a hook...hmmmmmmmm - VAL D.
iJustine is on Price is Right today. She irritates me so much.
And of course, she won her game. - Rochelle
And she won the spin and got into the showcase. If she wins the show, I'm quitting the Internet. - Rochelle
Is that show rigged? I remember watching the first eps when Drew Carey took over and pretty much everybody who got up there won big. - ronin
She rubs me the wrong way too, Rochelle. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
It just seems weird that of all of the people in the audience on the show, a "celebrity" gets chosen. And does so well. Still waiting to see if she wins the final showcase... - Rochelle
And Justine wins the show. *eyeroll* - Rochelle
Who is that? - joey
hahaha! When I first came to ff I sub'd to her, but g*d was she boring. I had no idea who she was, only that she had a ton of subscribers. then i saw her on some goofy commercial. then I unsub'd. - Bren, Photophobe
Okay, on the one hand, yeah, that's a suspicious appearance... the woman was one of the hosts at the MTV Music Awards, fer chrissake. So it's more than a bit odd that she got plucked out of the audience. OTOH, I'm not sure why she annoys anyone. - Roger Benningfield
I find her voice annoying, Roger. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
I don't find her annoying, just not interesting. - Bren, Photophobe
I've only heard of her because of the hundred plus page iPhone bill thingee, and I'm okay with that. Ignorance is bliss. - Derrick
She was cute for 15 minutes. That was a long time ago. She should go away please. - sean808080
I don't even know who she is. I can't tell if that's good or bad. - Noah Belson
attention whore .. its all about her .. http://tastyblogsnack.com/ the first post explains it all .. Im in this , Im in that .. who frickin cares - johnpiercy

Oddly, Fred Meyer is one thing I totally miss about the Pacific Northwest. Those stores have *everything*. (Or at least they did as of 17 years ago when I still lived in Portland...) - vicster
vicster, they do! I love FM. - Rochelle
FM was like some kind of Consumerism Wonderland, where in one trip you could buy car parts, bedding, groceries, CDs *and* fine jewelry! LOL! - vicster

Currently in the oven. - Rochelle from Bookmarklet
Haha! I making two pans of it! And none for Akiva! - Rochelle
Dave made that same frowny face when I made avocado chocolate truffles. Then he ate one, and requested I make more =) - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Akiva hates squash. He also hates pumpkin. He's no fun at this time of year. - Rochelle
I don't hate it but...I'm not a fan. Akiva, meetup at Ezell's? - Derrick
D, I'm on it. - Akiva Moskovitz
@jumelynizza19 Is who worth what?
Chances are, I'll be in Milwaukee next September. Is there anything cool about Milwaukee?
I like how I find out about this trip through this post. - Akiva Moskovitz
Akiva, it's because you're not invited!!!!! Actually, there's a doula conference there Sept. 30 to Oct. 3 that I may be interested in going to instead of the Austin conference. - Rochelle
WELL I WOULDN'T WANNA GO ANYWAY. - Akiva Moskovitz
*looks down at the ground*... Um... I've just got to pop next post and make a comment... - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Also, let me know when you make up your mind so I can put it on our calendar. - Akiva Moskovitz
I probably won't make up my mind until they announce the speakers and that won't be until late spring or so. - Rochelle
Fine by me! - Akiva Moskovitz
JBL? Bose? Marrantz? Marshall? - Matthew DeVries
The coolest thing when I was there wasn't particularly cool: there were sea gulls everywhere. Threw me for a loop until I realized it's because the Great Lakes are so close. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Abigail, Hedgehog Librarian (http://friendfeed.com/hedgeho...) would know. My parents lived there and there are some nice museums and a cool spy restaurant, but I always drove back to Chicago when I visited if I wanted to have fun - RAPatton
Tina, seagulls are cool! They bring the babies to us. Hence the conference there... - directeur
Seagulls are all over Seattle, too. They're dirty and noisy! - Rochelle
brewery tours can be fun, check out lakefrontbrewery.com - Milwaukee has some really nifty old neighborhoods. - Sarah is Novembery
The Safehouse (a cool spy restaurant), and the lakeshore. It's a big city that's not too big. Chicago is fun, but so is Milwaukee, you just have to check around. - Bette Cooper
Milwaukee Art Museum is pretty cool (just went there a couple of weeks ago)... interesting architecture (on the lake), A Warhol exhibit (at least for now), lots of modern stuff (my fave), a relatively large Georgia O'Keeffe collection, and the usual other hodge-podge of art and furnishings... http://www.mam.org/ - LogEx
I like to create gladiatorial seagull fights, by tossing them something that is too heavy to fly away with, to big to swallow, but too small to share, like a stale ass bagel. Then I sing that Star Trek TOS song from the eps where there was 1 on 1 fights. - Matthew DeVries
Bette hit it. The Safehouse is supposed to be REALLY cool, according to friends of mine. - Spidra Webster
There's also the Fonzie statue. :) http://promo.onmilwaukee.com/bronzet... - Spidra Webster
directeur, the seagulls are stealing the stork's jobs now? - Eivind
Seagulls are just big rude flying rats. - veo
george webb's. - Bill Kinney
Wolski's Bar at closing to get a "I closed Wolski's" bumper sticker. - Bill Kinney
Landmark Lanes is cool bar/bowling alley. There might be a festival going on at the summerfest grounds (usually is every weekend) - Bill Kinney
Get a burger and some Custard at Kopp's http://www.kopps.com/ - Bill Kinney
Milwaukee is my favorite midwest city that isn't Chicago or Minneapolis. - Bill Kinney
Laverne and Shirley? - Josh Haley
Josh, they and the Happy Days crew is my only touchpoint to Milwaukee. I need to get there some day and change that. - Micah Wittman
Yes. I was in MKE in October and found the people and the scene to be awesome. Food's not bad either.... or beer... or cheese, for that matter :) - Holly Rae, FFer
Um.... I don't think so. - Holden Page
Definitely Safehouse and Milwaukee Art Museum. If you can get into Coerper's for the best steak in the country, do so. - Rene Wirtz
Lakefront brewery is good. And there is an awesome thai restaurant. It might be called the king and I. - Clare Dibble
Milwaukee has Insurance! and, stuff. - Glen Campbell
Second best beer city next to St. Louis. - Jason Williams
Summerfest there always has good bands! :) - Mathew A. Koeneker

This home features the most exquisite craftsmanship and details. Historic landmark #38 also features grand ballroom, 13 fireplaces, elevator, wine cellar and 14 rooms." - Rochelle from Bookmarklet
What they fail to tell you is that all 13 fire places are in the grand ballroom. - Akiva Moskovitz
Contemplating a move? - Derrick
Derrick, hoping some FFer will buy it so we can all come visit. Or we could buy it as a group and have a FF commune!!!!!! - Rochelle
I got $5 on it. - Derrick
Hey if everyone on FF chips in, we can buy it and turn it into the FFer's club house ;-P - Jeff P. Henderson
I like Jeff's plan. - joey
That's a contractor's special. In the old days, somebody's pick that up for 2.9M, put 1.5M into it, and flip it for 7M. See also http://www.castleonthepark.com - Ken Sheppardson

"Once, she partied with the Rolling Stones. Now, shunned by family and sued by friends, aging eccentric Arden Van Upp has retreated to her mansion..." -- http://www.sfweekly.com/1998-12... - Ken Sheppardson
Guess I need to up my 1.5M estimate... "An estimated $2 million of work is needed to meet earthquake safety codes, more than the building is worth. The roof leaks and the wallpaper peels. Recent visitors say everything stinks of cat urine. The back yard is knee-deep in weeds, and garbage is heaped in a compost pile. Raccoons poke around in the filth. The party's over." ... Strange to think of it as a tear-down. - Ken Sheppardson
