You know, I can't remember the last time I posted in one of these threads? So, are we going to ponder the imponderables, or what.

HK - The last time I bought Sudafed, I had to sign a gov't waiver to get a pack of 12 of them. (ruttin' meth cooks)

I have some pics of some cute female electrical engineers from our field day last week, I'll get them up later if I can remember to. They're out there, just gotta know where to look.

Morning all...well if I make it til noon it'll be impressive. We've penned the kids in their advisory classes for the next 2 hours while we hand out yearbooks one classroom at a time. Then the kids go to each class for 10 minutes and we do hall sweeps between each period. Then finally we kick the hyper, over sugared, nutballs out:) LOL this should be an adventure. Then we just have to get through next week. I like my old school better where yearbooks were the last day. This is kind of anti-climactic

MAv-HUGS that's great sweety!

I had to leave a message for my sister. It went straight to voicemail. I forgot; there is no cell service on the Outer Banks. She will get the message when she goes grocery shopping on the mainland.

If you'd be able, a patented MsG NCIS review would be much appreciated. If I get to see actually watch it, so much the better.

Mav- here we go

Select to view spoiler:

Ok so Jenny gets home from France and in her study is a half consumed bottle of whiskey and a glass. She asks the maid who says that no one has been there. Gibbs comes over to find out where Jenny disappeared to for over 21 hours and tell her that because of it all the NCIS agents have to have a polygraph and Tim is freaking. She won't tell him where she was. He notices the bottle but she basically throws him out. Ducky, Ziva, Time, Abbey, Li, and Palmer all go out for drinks and Tony's supposed to meet up with them. Li and Palmer duck out and Tim and Abbey get paged back to NCIS. Gibbs paged Tim and wants him to hack into the CIA ( he gave him an immunity form first) Abbey was paged by Jenny who wants her to run the prints on the glass. La Granduille gets pics of Tony and Jeanne from his guy and talks about scaring/hurting Jeanne as leverage and asks if Tony loves Jeanne the undercover guy ( trying to protect Tony )says he's a player who dumps women,but that he won't want the girl hurt Tony goes by to see Jeanne at the hospital and Jeanne ends up dealing with this guy who collapsed at the airport. The collapsed guy's sister and boyfriend show up and it becomes obvious that she's a druggy and the boyfriend's a dealer. The airport guy dies and the druggy and dealer break into the morgue. Jeanne won't listen to Tony and goes down to the morgue and then takes off running and Tony stops her, tells her to get behind him and when she won't orders her to. He goes in, but the dealer gets a drop on him because of Jeanne. The dealer orders her to cut the drugs out of the corpse and at first she won't but he beats Tony and she does. She puts on a mask and keeps trying to protect the sister from seeing her brother all mutilated, but the sister's jonesing badly. Jeanne gets the stomach out and basically tears it open and scatters the drugs, Tony's able to lay out the dealer after Jeanne stabs him in the shoulder. The druggy girl is so desperate that she snorts the drugs out of her brother's corpse. Tim breaks into the CIA and finds out Jenny's dad is dead and that La Granduille is behind the order to polygraph them. Ziva is sitting talking to Duckie and becoming more and more worried about Tony. Ducky tells her she's acting like a jealous girlfriend and she explains Tony's her partner and he promised to be there and she has a really bad feeling in her Gibbs gut.Abbey finds out that the prints are Jenny's dad, but hasn't had time to tell her when we go back to Tony who's leaving the hospital with Jeanne. There's a limo waiting and Jeanne says "surprise I want you to meet my dad" they get in the limo and Jeanne hugs a man and moves back as Tony extends his hand to shake the man's and sees it's La Granduille.Tony's face freezes with a half smile half uh oh look and it ends.

You have to watch...it's mind boggling. I just hope Ziva acts on her gut soon enough and I'm really worried that the CIA undercover guy may have screwed Tony royally when he said he was a player...I know he meant it to protect Jeanne and Tony thinking Granduille wouldn't go after them if they didn't really have anything...but now...AAAAHHH!!!! Next season really needs to start right now!

First: What does NCIS stand for? Is it a new show?

Second: Why is it that the majority of re-caps make the shows sound like full blown daytime soaps? (Trainer and I were discussing Heroes and kid was like "is that a soap opera?")

Third: Howdy, Howdy, Howdy! Especially to those popping up after some time away.

I'm so excited for the weekend. I get to learn to drive the horse trailer. Squee! Having never been in possession of a truck or trailer before, this is one thing that has escaped my knowledge. The scary part is that I'm learning this weekend so I can haul two horses to a show by myself NEXT. No pressure or anything.

Hi Rugbug,

NCIS isn't (generally) soap opera-ish, but I agree with MsG that it was the season finale so they threw in some big zingers.
The forensics is good, and rarely is there a "Yeah, right, like that would happen" moment like on CSI NY / CSI Miami.

If driving a horse trailer is anything like driving a boat down the road...I wish you good luck. I find that nerve wracking. I make Husband drive! And backing the boat down the ramp? Ack!
It takes some practice!

Zeek: I think it was an either/or.
Personally, I'd rather (were I so inclined...

) the hot single bridesmaids. But if that fails to materialize, a good drink-a-thon on someone else's dime is always correct.

Hey Traveler! Great to hear from you! I actually thought of you last night as I was channel-surfing in the middle of the night! Boys' Night Out was on. I'm sure you prolly couldn't even count the times you've seen that one, huh? I couldn't stay up and watch it though. IMDB review had this to say (which made me think of you, too.
