New Question:
Would you go out of your way for a Comic and Cartoon Museum?

Hehehe yeah pushing the Toonseum here too.   I always have, I mean back in the 1990's I pushed the Words & Pictures Museum all the time, saying how great the place was.  I still feel the W&P Museum is the best Comic Museum to ever stand.  Though the Toonseum is awesome, just being around and showing this awesome art work. 

To answer the question, yes I will go out of my way to see one of these Museums... they're rare and really cool.  I hope the Toonseum is around for years to come!

LOL, this actually isn't "out of the way" for me. Hubby's from PA, so this'll be something cool to see the next time we take a trip out there.

The biggest thing that bugs me about summer is something I'm going through right now, sun burn. Though I guess it's my own fault for not putting on sunscreen XD The second biggest thing is how good I taste to misquitos, lol

And with as much as I love cartoons, of course I would! Assuming I could afford to that is.

[TurtleNinja]

Yeesh, sunburn and skeeters. I hear ya there, Crittle. I go through the same thing myself every summer.

I'm of 1/8 Irish descent on my mother's side, so I have the pale, freckled, easy-burn skin, plus for some reason, skeeters think I'm an "all u can eat" buffet, so I get chomped on, too.

If you haven't already, try Noxema skin cream for soothing sunburn. Anytime I do something foolish and forget sunscreen or reapplication and get turned into a lobster, it does the trick to soothe the pain, itch, and tightness. I still have to wear loose clothing in the meantime, but it helps. Also taking asprin/tylenol/advil, whatever you take for headaches helps to cool the heat and stop swelling. I tend to have a hard time with feeling a bit on the warm side when I get burned and that lowers that burn-fever for me.

I'd also suggest Aveeno baths, but I'm not a fan of them personally. They work, but when I tried it the one time, my tub clogged like hell afterward, so I stick to Mom's trick of good old fashioned Noxema.

Wish I could give good help for the skeeters, but little I've tried has helped. I'm just tasty to them. Off bug spray is the best thing I use, and I still get chomped. Not as bad, but they still bite, even when I'm not wearing shorts and tanks. I could wear jeans and a shirt and they still bite, Off spray and all. *shrug* I'm apparently good skeeter bait. lol

New Question:
What did you do today?

Well since it's a Holiday in the US I went to a party with the Wolfman Mac crew.

[TurtleNinja]

Did barbecue with the family, then went out to see the fireworks show in town. The usual, just hung around together.

[CriticalCrittles]

if by "today" you meant July 4th, I....worked. And then came home to eat leftovers from a cook out, and watch fireworks from my back yard...alone cuz my bf had to work the second shift (we work at the same place) and the rest of my family had already left for other people's cook outs. It was....ok....I was sightly lonely though. :/ July 5th I wandered around the mall and Target, looking for things to buy with this weekend's paycheck cuz I could use something new to cheer me up about now heh.

New question:
The internet has changed a lot in the last 15 years, which is how long I've been online now.  So my question is, is there any programs you still use that you have used since your first year on the internet?

mIRC for me.  I downloaded that for the first time in November 1995 and have been using it on every computer since. They've changed the looks a little, but for the most part it's the same program, does the same thing, and works great.

New question:
Are you going to 7-11 for 7-11 day to get your Free Slurpee?

Yup I'm going!  *G*

[CriticalCrittles]

Oh man, I wasn't even aware of that! Dang, if I woulda known I totally woulda went! Do they do that every year? Cuz if so I'll definately go next time around!

[Michaelangelo]

Yes it's a yearly thing now, they started last year.  It's a really small cup... but still fun to take part in

New Question:
What/if any, TV show that is airing new episodes right now, has you determine to watch the next episode week by week?

For me it's Deadliest Catch, it's a really hard and sad season, as we watch the people on the different crab fishing boats go through some of their toughest challenges... we lost one of the Captain's (my favorite one in the series, Captain Phil died earlier this year, they're just now airing these episodes).  One of the guys on another boat learned his father is missing, they found his truck but not him (still missing from what I've heard), and so much more. 

When I first saw this series was coming out I didn't think I'd get hooked... but I did.

Another series I'm hooked too is "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood"  The remake of the "Fullmetal Alchemist" series that I've been a fan of since 2005.  It's deff different from the other series was and is totally holding my attention.

New Question:
How often do you upgrade your cell phone?

I get mine upgraded every year and a half to two years.  yesterday I upgraded to a Samsung Intercept, this is my first touch screen phone.  It's got a lot more features than my other cell phones and is really nice.  I've been having fun learning it and playing around with all the new settings.

pet peeve: An alarm/alert goes off when the battery is full telling you to disconnect your phone from the charger... I charge my phone as I sleep... I don't need it beeping at me to say 'unplug me' all morning long.  Looking to find away to turn this setting off.

New Question:
What web site do you spend most of your time on these days?

For me it's TMNT-L and Facebook.  I might not post to often lately, but I'm still refreshing and reading everything on the forum through out the day.  Even on my cell phone I'm checking TMNT-L.  I'm hoping to be able to do a handful of updates soon.

[CriticalCrittles]

There are several sites I stop by as part of my daily routine check up if you will, incuding here, myspace, deviant art, twitter, and facebook. But, facebook gets most of my time though, that's the one I'm on several times a day
