What Am I Having For Brunch?


Today I couldn't wait for lunch so I am having brunch. Brunch is the word breakfast and lunch combined. I like the word "brunch". It sounds casual, like "lounge" or "mimosa". If the inventor of the brunch called it "breakfunch" instead, I don't think he would have been so successful.

By the way, the inventor of the brunch, Larry Eatington, went on to successfully invent the snack and the second helping. This is a burrito with eggs, tomatoes, jack and cheddar cheeses and delicious turkey bacon. Speaking of interesting combos, have you ever seen a pigurkey? They're very sweet creatures just watch out when they're flying over you.

Enjoy your lunch

Ellen

next: Congratulations Ellen

Hey Ellen !! Speaking of pigurkey,do you know if
they come frome the same place as Ter-Duc-ins do?
YES they are REAL!! I don't know which came first, the chicken stuffed inside the duck or the
duck stuffed the chicken, but they BOTH ended up
stuffed inside the Turkey!! Would you ask your
chefs if they know how we could get one in time for Christmas??? And , oh yeah, PLEASE send the
D I R E C T I O N S how to COOK em' !!!
P.S. If I can't get one by Christmas, I'll have to wait until NEXT Christmas, because I'm going
in the hospital on Jan 2nd to have Gastric bypass
surgery, and I won't be able to eat real food for
at least a YEAR!
P.S.S. The hospital I'm going to is only a few
miles from where John Travolta lives, do you think you could get him to stop in and say "Hi"
while I'm there (Munroe Regional Medical Center)
in Ocala, Florida...One of my FAVORITE shows of yours was when you came in on the back of his "HOG" and then you GAVE IT AWAY!!! I'm glad I was taping that day, my son and I love "H.D"
and we BOTH learned what H.O.G. stands for from you that day!! Hope the "hog" watches out for the Pig-urkey!!! Love ya Ellen!! Rock on!! Debb

Ellen,
I enjoy your show. It is a high light of my day. I tape it just in case I won't be home when it's on.
I enjoy your easy, light humor. It all seems so natural and like a breath of fresh air.
Thanks for bringing laughter into the lives of so many.

Excuse me! This looks very much like the brunch you had a week ago. Is it the same on the outside with a different filling?

Poor girl,

that is no brunch, we are used too, over here. Here we have different bread, several kinds of sausages and cheese, fruits, tomatoes and carots, champagne, tea and coffee or orange juice as much as you want - that is a brunch.
In Berlin we love to have brunch in Prenzlauer Berg in nice pubs on sundays from 10:00 until 14:00 o´clock. You should visit our town one day and should enjoy a real brunch.

Ellen, it's time for my proposal. To recap, I've been seeing you 5 days a week, now I find out you are seeing someone else on the weekends, so it's time for me to get serious.
I'm thinking a nice B&B weekend where we can wake up and enjoy breakfast in bed. The only thing is this is going to represent some time away for me, and I did want to wake up with my friends safe and alive and well fed, so this is all contingent upon me overturning to the feminine rule before armageddon by breakfast time.
I think you can see on a scale of 1 to 10 the reason my proposal to you. I'm just filling in with my skill set for the gift to bring on a Day of Love's Celebration.
Anyway, I would want that designed to the 5th dimension of a mothers love - first a caring third overhead - like a mother sleeping with her sleeping baby in her arms under the loving care of another.
With the whole ring poled to the feminine envelope, it will be absent the background noise of unimportant variables, and hold the 10x safety level of your dreams, world peace - the statistically central stillness you need.
All we would need to do is quad the nation heads to 4 individuals, and select a feminine representative to a global feminine matrix speed governer. Global interests would come first, the nation's interests would come second decided by a panel of the 4 in 3rd opinion agreement. Really, the interests of the 4th just come last. That's going to require a list of the nations of the world and 5 additional columns to table.
You could fill in with your skill set, or I could use your girlfriends. It will be an overnight mission, "light without darkness at all". You'll have to take it from the control room. Don't count on getting much sleep.

Love, HoneyBunny.

This website has been updated as of October 30, 2007.

IT HAS BEEN NEARLY ONE YEAR…12 MONTHS…358 DAYS and counting…that two beloved and well-cared-for senior Golden Retrievers named Dugan and Jake have been HELD HOSTAGE from their owner by a dog rescue group based in Scottsdale, Arizona known as the Arizona Golden Retriever Connection (AZGRC).

The owner, 39-year old Joanne Williams of Chandler, Arizona, has passionately, relentlessly, and exhaustingly tried every potential avenue to reclaim Dugan and Jake, ages 10 and 9 respectively, whom she has raised since puppy hood.

She mistakenly turned them over to the volunteer rescue group on December 2, 2006 yet asked for their return with 72 hours. At the time, she was suffering post-traumatic stress disorder as well as situational depression and anxiety from a pregnancy loss at six months and was under medical care.

A legal battle has waged since February with no end or trial in sight. AZGRC’s leadership remains steadfast in refusing to publicly discuss its reasons for not returning Dugan and Jake to their owner citing “legal restraints.” Public outrage and debate, as well as a recommendation from its national golden retriever rescue committee to return the dogs did not bring home Dugan and Jake.

The leaders refer to Dugan and Jake as their “property”, claiming they now “own” the dogs, since a dog is considered “property” in Arizona as in many states. They also claim that returning the dogs “would set a precedent” as well as it being “in the best interest of the dogs” to not return them to Ms. Williams.

This “legal paper shuffle” is estimated to have already amassed combined legal fees and expenses exceeding $100,000. AZGRC reports itself to be a non-profit, 501 (c) 3 volunteer organization relying upon donated monies to support its operations. It governs itself and reports to no one.

From a consumer protection standpoint, there is currently NO agency in the state of Arizona that provides oversight, regulation, control or licensing of non-profit corporations including animal rescue and animal welfare organizations. There is also NO person, organization, or agency in Arizona with which an individual can talk, file a complaint, or request assistance regarding an issue with an Arizona non-profit organization.

This allows a non-profit organization, like the Arizona Golden Retriever Connection (also dba Arizona Golden Retriever Rescue) to do what it wants without any fear of reprisals. The leaders are judgmental and authoritative, believing they have the superior knowledge on who should have a dog and who should not. They are out of control and demonstrate no concern or compassion for anyone who differs with their decisions and viewpoints.

So nearly one year later, the questions still remain…

Why won’t Arizona Golden Retriever Connection rescue return Dugan and Jake to their rightful owner, Ms. Williams, who has begged, pleaded, and is spending her life’s savings for their return to her?

Why does AZGRC want to waste the Maricopa County court time and taxpayer dollars along with donated funds to pay legal fees from the two most expensive law firms in Phoenix to stall and drag out this legal battle by filing motion after motion?

How does the AZGRC leadership justify its actions to its dues-paying members when its mission clearly states it is dedicated to finding safe, loving, and permanent homes for unwanted Golden Retrievers in Arizona?

Maybe its members and donors simply haven’t been told the story about Dugan and Jake.

An overview of Dugan & Jake’s story can be read by clicking on this link.

I thought this story might interest some of you. The website to read everything on this is www.bringhomeduganandjake.com
