So, maybe we should go with some sort of circus themed name. Clown? Bigtop? OR - maybe we should go with something from Apple Cheese weekend? Lowpig? Creamery? Chocolate, Chocolate Nut is my favorite! How about Chocolate Chocolate Nut Kresge???
Hmm - Coco Loco Kresge. That seems like name that would be appropriate for this family. We all seem to be a little LOCO! AND - I am a fan of Coco - or cocoa! Esp with Bailey's... Although, not these days. Plain old cocoa for me. :0( Everyone else will have to have extra for me!
G'day family!! I'm baaaacccckkkk! I was cracking up at the names for the baby. Cocoa Loco was hysterical. The Apple Cheese theme needed "Peachy Paterno" could be male or female... Just like SNL (Saturday Night Live) Pat, Chris, non-gender names: Terry, Nic (Nicole or Nicholas), Sam, etc.
Thanks for the help. I tried to bookmark, but it went to a general blogging place rather than Barnum, but I worked my way back by Kevin's instructions (Thanks for the kudos, Kevin). Just to keep you all updated, I'm going on my 5th date tomorrow. It's nice but it sure is different. I'm overwhelmed by his kindness, generosity, and his gentlemeness. And no, there has been no smoochin' going on ... and besides a lady never tells.
I was excited when we began this blog, although I had hoped you said clog. I ran out and bought shoes and I've been clogging, but I'll hang them up and blog.
What time zone is this blog in? I wrote my blog at 11 AM something and it shows as 9:33 AM.
Okay. Now we officially have 2 blog sites. This one, that Kevin set up, and Barnum Blab which was set up by Patti Ann. For those who have used both, which do you prefer. I like Barnum Blab personally. You can post pictures, edit your profile and create your own topics. It seems pretty user friendly. Not that this one isn't.
Yes, I think that we need to make a decison and chose ONE blog. Maybe we should give it a week and give everyone a chance to get on both and try them out and then we can decide which one to keep?
Ok, Aunt Nancy - I still didn't get an answer to my question about your DATES!
I also like the look of this one. But I like that you can assign a picture to your profile on the other site. Like Beth has put Murphy as her picture. And like I said earlier, you can create your own topic there which I still haven't figured out if you can do on this site. The other one seems a little more personable. we're already up to 11 members on the other one. I agree with giving each a test drive.
Help!! I just got all set up on blog and actually know how to do it...what is blab and how do I do that? I'm old, I can be putting to much stuff in my memory bank cause it's already on overload.
For those of you who didn't hear, I've been dating a very nice gentleman since before Christmas. He comes from over by Hollidaysburg (actually Duncansville). WE've been out four times, tomorrow will be five. We talk daily and e-mail often AND NO I will not give him blog capabilities!!!! Jeff is all ready having him checked out through national security. I'll keep you posted ...his name is Denny.
You name my grandchild Lowpig and you gotta deal with me, kid! And about Nancy's dates...as I understand it, they eat at Denny's and go right past smooching to the good stuff? Is that right?
Lowpig it is, cause after the comment about my dating we know who the grandaddy pig is. Still no one has directed me to blab...although I was so busy reading my Forum, that I might have just been distracted. I need a site or sumtin.
I'm on. Thank God(OK Nancy?). This will empty my inbox at work. Hi everyone! How's my new brother-in-law Denny? Names, let's see. How about colors? Blue, Pink(oh that ones taken)Green(remember our bird)Purple Rain(of that's a song) I got nothin.
It's 11 o'clock, do you know where your children are? There're probably on blab and I don't know how to get there so I'm going to bed ... maybe tomorrow I'll catch up with somebody. Good night!
Hey Trish ... you were on. I was talking to Denny on the phone. I just left that message and then I found yours and one from Jessica, so I guess messages won't just pop up unless I write a new one? I'm so confused.
Can anybody hear me???? I don't know how to blab!!!! I can't get there from here!! Jer, Somehow I hooked up and didn't know it myself, but that's how this family is. Denny is still my dating friend. I just got back from dinner and a movie. Well, unlike the rest of you, I have to work in the morning. I'll check tomorrow to see if anyone has left me instructions on how to blab. Love, Peace and Blessings..Nance
Aunt Nancy. . . Patti Ann and I both have sent an e-mail to you inviting you to the blab. You might want to see if those e-mails were sent to spam or trash.
Just to clear things up a little bit (and how on earth can we be discussing this in "Baby Names" is beyond me...) but the whole "Blab" thing is just a name. I liked the name that Kevin came up with for this Blog, but "Blab" isn't an official internet term (as far as I know). I, too, like the look of this one, and was not as excited about the look of the Group (official term) that I started, but.. such is life!
Guess I'd better add a Name suggestion to validate this comment: since there seems to be a potential restaurant name addition, perhaps a name from that genre? Taco Bell Kresge... or Wendy... Shoney!
So, as a latecomer, I feel the need to summarize...
My first child will be named after a combination of alcoholic drinks, numbers, fictional towns, and men Aunt Nancy has dated.
Also, we are actively ridiculing my cousin who quit the rat race in D.C. to assist a third-world nation in need. The source of this public assault is that she won't stop aiding the Nicaraguans long enough to respond to how to tell Aunt Nancy that we are blabby.
Finally, just as we find an outlet to discuss things so that Aunt Pat will not become unemployed, we changed the destination to which we are supposed to post.
If we were planning to meet for ice cream for the third time today, this would be an exact replica of the Campout. I’ll get out my “Mullet Poppie” shirt…
Thanks nieces in Jacksonville for trying to help me blab, but I could not find any e-mails helping me blab, so I'm stuck blogging. I loved Baby Jeffrey's Summary. Well, it's late Sunday night and oh, yes, I almost forgot: YEAH COLTS!!! WHAT A GAME!! NEXT STOP DA BEARS!!
It would seem that my father-in-law is not a fan of the name Lowpig Kresge. I believe there was some sort of threat in his post... Hmm - I don't think that you appreciate how wonderful Lowpig is!
Everybody LOVES the toad cam! I think I will probably be escaping the "Campers Gone Wild" shower video that Ed will be shooting for the 2007 edition. Somehow I think I will be a little too big to fit in the shower by then - even if I wanted to!
Geez... took me long enough to wade through the 47 topics that have been discussed so far in this one section named 'Baby Names.' Fortunately my wife was kind enough to fill me in on missed details.
Regarding the restaurant name idea - I have a first and middle name that already go well with each other, and the kid may end up being able to cook a hearty breakfast.
Apparently we've missed a lot while away from the campout... I'm a little scared of what the "toad cam" might be... and that it might be related somehow to Ed, who is still creepy...
Bob Evans Kresge... has a nice ring to it...
So when will we know if we need to decided on a girl name or boy name?
Bob Evans Kresge. Hmm - interesting. Do you think if you name a child that they would automatically love sausage?
Jeff and I aren't planning on finding out if we are having a boy or a girl. We think we would like to be surprised. So, we need to come up with a name for each. Oh, the pressure!
Patti Ann - Oh, you are missing out on all the campout fun with the toad cam. Hope you can make it this year. I hope I can make it this year. I'm guessing it would be a day trip for me, but want to at least be there for some of it! Ask your sister about Ed's toad cams...
I have been out of the loop for a while. Regarding my objection to the name of Lowpig, Beth, you are my favorite daughter-in-law and you can do no wrong. Name he or she what you will, but before you do, just picture a first grade teacher looking around the room for someone to call on when all their little hands go up and saying "How about you, LOWPIG?"!!! I think I'd prefer FruitLoops or something other than Lowpig, but of course the choice is yours and Jeff's.
Yes... from a first grade teacher who has had to do a lot of "damage control" over things that aren't under my control... consider how cruel children can be.
You could go the other way and make him/her a celebrity: Sponge Bob Kresge, for example
No, I certainly do not want to do anything to anger "the boss". I'm sure she knows that I was referring to the big, fat, creepy purple dinosaur - or whatever that thing is...
Best of luck to Mike Goff as he goes under the knife Tues 2/6 to repair his formerly manly muscles damaged in a recent roller hockey game. Our thoughts are with you, Mike.

Hey Barnums ... I did it. Much to my own amazement. That doesn't mean I'll be able to do it again.
I'm all over the "7" name. Seinfeld rules.
PS I don't know how to bookmark ... where's Cassandra when I need her?
Got to Favorites at the top of your screen and then click on "add to favorites"

Clown? Bigtop?
OR - maybe we should go with something from Apple Cheese weekend?
Lowpig?
Creamery? Chocolate, Chocolate Nut is my favorite! How about Chocolate Chocolate Nut Kresge???
Low Pig would be a nice name, LP for short.
Low Pig Kresge...
I think it has a nice ring to it!
*cheers for Mum Nancy*
How about Coco Kresge... has a nice sound to it.
I love Coco Kresge! Middle name Loco? Coco Loco Kresge...
Hmm - Coco Loco Kresge. That seems like name that would be appropriate for this family. We all seem to be a little LOCO!
AND - I am a fan of Coco - or cocoa! Esp with Bailey's...
Although, not these days. Plain old cocoa for me. :0(

DATE! Hello!
I have not heard about this!
DETAILS please!
Beth, just ask "The Boss" she can fill you in.
I was excited when we began this blog, although I had hoped you said clog. I ran out and bought shoes and I've been clogging, but I'll hang them up and blog.

Ok, Aunt Nancy - I still didn't get an answer to my question about your DATES!
I like the way this one looks, but I would vote for Barnum Blab.
No worries, I'll go ahead and delete this one once everyone has got set up over at the new one.
I also like the look of this one. But I like that you can assign a picture to your profile on the other site. Like Beth has put Murphy as her picture. And like I said earlier, you can create your own topic there which I still haven't figured out if you can do on this site.

How about Raspberry Beret? This sticks to the color theme, while still including Prince or the Artist formally know as Prince.
I still like Lowpig it is a Beth original.
It's 11 o'clock, do you know where your children are? There're probably on blab and I don't know how to get there so I'm going to bed ... maybe tomorrow I'll catch up with somebody.
Good night!
Hey Trish ... you were on. I was talking to Denny on the phone. I just left that message and then I found yours and one from Jessica, so I guess messages won't just pop up unless I write a new one? I'm so confused.
Also, this site must come from CA cause the times are a three hour difference.
To check for new posts while on the blog or blab site you can refresh the page. This will allow new postings to show up, if any have been written.
The first I new Denny was a "date" with no smooching and now he is a brother-in-law. What did I miss?
Can anybody hear me????
I don't know how to blab!!!! I can't get there from here!!
Jer,

For those who have not been to the other site, here's the address: http://groups-beta.google.com/group/barnum-blab?hl=en
You should be able to use the same id and password. Both sites use google id's.
I agree with Aunt Nancy! GO COLTS! Why isn't Aunt Diane (Diana, Dian) on the blog yet?? She should be on here raving about her Colts amazing comeback!
It would seem that my father-in-law is not a fan of the name Lowpig Kresge. I believe there was some sort of threat in his post... Hmm - I don't think that you appreciate how wonderful Lowpig is!
Aunt Nancy -
Will you be posting a photo of Denny anytime soon??
I just realized that you have to be invited to join the other site. Patti Ann set that up, so if you want access you'll have to ask her for it.
Ok - I think I have it! The WORST name ever for our child!
ED - like creepy Ed from the campout! EWWWWW!
I have to agree naming your child would be torture to those in our family who have shared a creepy moment at the campout with ED.
Can you say "toad cam"??
I can't beleive I forgot about the Toad Cam.
Everybody LOVES the toad cam!
I think I will probably be escaping the "Campers Gone Wild" shower video that Ed will be shooting for the 2007 edition. Somehow I think I will be a little too big to fit in the shower by then - even if I wanted to!

Favorite daughter-in-law...
ONLY daughter-in-law...
Hmm
Its a double-edged sword, huh Beth?
I try to stay on the 'favorite son-in-law' side. :)
Yes... from a first grade teacher who has had to do a lot of "damage control" over things that aren't under my control... consider how cruel children can be.
You could go the other way and make him/her a celebrity:
Sponge Bob Kresge, for example
Hmm - Sponge Bob - certainly better than Barney!
Oooo... better watch out... don't want to upset "the boss" by insulting a family name...
No, I certainly do not want to do anything to anger "the boss". I'm sure she knows that I was referring to the big, fat, creepy purple dinosaur - or whatever that thing is...
Best of luck to Mike Goff as he goes under the knife Tues 2/6 to repair his formerly manly muscles damaged in a recent roller hockey game. Our thoughts are with you, Mike.
What? I didn't hear about this. What manly muscles are we talking about???
