Since we're talking about non verbal storm warnings, there was a TWI guy in the 80s who got on the Donahue show for non TWI reasons and he said whenever Donahue was about to lower the boom on someone he would always put his microphone right under his chin.
LOL we were talking about Words Women use where did the non verbal storm warnings come from
:P

we dont celebrate thanksgiving, i guess its the same as christmas,,
Family time, lots of food, lots of drink, and ohh yes traditional party games,
Its tradition to eat TURKEY, here in the United Kingdom...............
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm powerfilled :P
I have never known you to kill a turkey, pluck it, take out all the inners, wash it,
and then bloody cook it :P
but i guess theres a first time for anything. This years Turkey is running around in the garden.

Great topic
i am a newbie at posting pics so i will just describe our tree,
its a white one 7ft tall and dressed with gold and red tinsel and gold and red ornaments,
the star on the top is years old. it looks beautiful.
We were very rebelious in twi days and always put up a tree lol...............
It was for the kids and i didnt see anything wrong as long as they knew it was a time for
giving and great family time to. We have lights around the fireplace and it looks great when
we turn out the main lights, so warm and cozy.....
i guess our christmas would be a bit like your thanksgiving (family time) we dont celebrate
thanksgiving.
but i love christmas, i am the biggest kid in the house :P
have everyone up at 4am cant wait

littlehawk thats a great one.... some women wouldnt admit to using such words lol
but it is a well known saying behind every great man is a great woman.......women like change lol
Dmiller ohhhhh so bloody funny
Her hands on hips or arms are crossed,
head slightly cocked sideways elevating one eye over the other,
chin pressed closer to her chest as if to peer over glasses,
tight thin line where her mouth used to be
and sometimes accompanied by toe-tapping too.
you described my mother to a Tee ....... i remember that look from a child lol, i will really try
to never follow her for that..... :P
keep adding this is great.

I have two boxers and they are adorable
since my children are now teenagers 15, 17, 19 the two boxers are my babies,
chloe is the female and ty is the male, they are soul mates and very affectionate,
sleep with me and hubby and also fight for the covers lol, i love them dearly and
never tell them off they are so sweet and look at you like butter wouldnt melt in there
mouth, but they can be very naughty running off with shoes, and things they are not
suppose to, but i love them anyways....... :wub:

my hubbys favourite statement is:
" GOD MADE WOMEN WITH SMALLER FEET THAN MEN SO THEY COULD GET CLOSER TO THE SINK"
hes so funny, (dont take it serious its his joke)
-
this is a awesome site,
As i have just joined i have not read all the posts, seems like it would take me a lifetime lol
being in E ngland we had no one to help us when we came out of twi, we were just left to get on with it,, and we have.
myself and powerfilled (hubby) have been away from twi for about 10 years and have moved
on in our lives, some may think that it wouldnt of effected us as much being we were in england
but it did, we ran fellowships, we attended the roa, were advance class grads, so for us to it wasnt easy.
But we have never stopped loving GOD, We still have a fellowship here in our
home and we just hold forth the word to the best of our God given ability, and love people.
God first not a ministry, nor people........ I couldnt live without God in my life, We tend not to
look back at the past, we aim to be positive as looking back causes pain in my heart from twi
days, although a lot of good happened to... and i met some great people who are close to my heart.
So i hold on to the good and kick out the bad, adversary loves us to dwell on the crap.... This is
such a good site for people to talk, We are only human and we all make mistakes but in a world
with so much hatred, i believe to make a difference, and help in anyway i can.
this is the first site i have seen like this and no nothing of any other site, and i would like to thank the people that got all this together, it has helped many people and thats what it should be all about.
With the many different topics it meets the needs of all WELL DONE. May God continue to bless you guys for
your wonderful hearts.
love marypoppins

I thought i would post this it made me smile and how very true it is :P
Words Women Use
Fine
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
Five Minutes
If she is getting dressed, this is more than half an hour.
Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
Nothing
This is the calm before the storm. This means "something" and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "fine".
Go Ahead
This is a dare, not permission, DON'T DO IT!
Loud Sigh
Although not actually a word, the loud sigh is often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing".
That's Okay
This is one of the most dangerous statements that woman can make to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
Thanks
This is the least used of all words in the female vocabulary. If a woman is thanking you. Do not question it, just say you're welcome and back out of the room slowly.
:wub: :P :wub:
-
Thank you all for such a great welcome,
Especially to my great friend DIGI, what a great welcome i am so glad she found me.
after all this time.
I believe our warped sense of English humour will be appreciated here lol. :P
Its sometimes a little strange as we have different meanings:
Like the day i said i was going out for a fag i was at the advance class at the time
and i got nothing but funny looks.................. :blink: but in England a FAG is a cigerette. lol
love you all :wub: especially powerfilled :wub: and digi :wub:
