[Formerly "Hope Youse Guys Can Forgive Me!"]

I think it’s about time I lightened up a little bit.  Not much.  But a little.  Just enough to spread a few laughs.  And get myself into some serious trouble.

Anyway.  If you haven’t seen the original videos, click here.

 

Part One:  Mini for Mandy

 

Part Two:  Trouble for Tam

    OH. MY. GOSH. :shock: AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    You have guts dude! ;-) First time to your page and this is what I see! HAHA!! Can’t wait to see what the girls think of this. :lol: heehee


  2. on May 4, 2008 at 4:28 pm Michelle

    :lol: :lol: :lol: :D :) ;)

    I needed that!!!

    “The Devil Went Down to Georgia”…”How bad is that place??” Very funny…

    But, Nor, you ARE a yankee…through and through…Fluffer Nutters!?!…that’s SO yankee!!! And what in the world are “dippy eggs”??…that doesn’t sound good at all!! In Texas, we like our aggs (spelling intentional) skillet scrambled with fried taters and biscuits with gravy on the side…

    I will agree with your last statement, “You have a lot to learn about women, buddy!!” You just might have lost two really good friends – don’t be too hard on him, Tam and Mandy, he is a true yankee, he doesn’t know any better!! HAHAHA…

    Thanks for making me laugh, and who does your wardrobe?? :cool:


  3. on May 4, 2008 at 4:56 pm inWorship

    Looks like you did just fine.

    Very funny!!!!


  4. on May 4, 2008 at 5:23 pm tam

    oh NO you Di’int!

    Do you have ANY idea what you have started??? PAL!!!!

    Guys who carry around an axe should never say words like “dippy eggs”

    you ain’t right!

    But you are funny!!!

    I can’t believe you found my real family tree. It looked like it got taller. I guess I should call my cousins to see if they had their baby together yet.

    Oh.

    and I love you too.

    i guess

    Bran ~ So far, so good from where I’m standing! :shock:

    Michelle ~ Me? A Yankee?!?! Thems fightin’ woids, goil! ;) (By the way, Sam–that’s my dog, for those who don’t know–made all the decisions regarding my wardrobe. ;) )

    Brent ~ Couldn’t have done it without you. Glad you like it. :)

    Tam ~ “Guys who carry around an axe should never say words like ‘dippy eggs’” Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!! That’s Alabama-In-The-Middle-Pennsylvania for ya! But, now, just WHAT do you THINK you and Mandy are gonna do about it, huh? HUH!! I triple-dog-dare-ya! ;)

    And I love youse guys, too.

    “I guess.”

    …Hey, wait a minute. FOUR COMMENTS?!?!?! Thought for sure I was gonna break my comment record with this one! :(

    Guess I’ll just wait till Mandy gets the bad news…


  6. on May 4, 2008 at 6:45 pm Darla

    I think I live in alabama in the middle of PA. :shock: and guess what I love “dippy eggs” hahaha :lol:


  7. on May 4, 2008 at 6:47 pm TheNorEaster

    YES!!! YES!!! YES!!! See THAT, everyone? I’m NOT crazy!!! :lol:


  8. on May 4, 2008 at 6:58 pm HW

    Wrong. Just wrong! Youse? (hysterical… but wrong!)

    I tried to let it go… to keep my mouth shut… but I am finally not able to.


  9. on May 4, 2008 at 7:01 pm TheNorEaster

    “Hysterical…?”

    Are youse making fun of the way I talk…?

    (Well, I actually don’t really talk that way. Honest, I don’t. But it would ruin the joke if I let that slip out. :shock: )


  10. on May 4, 2008 at 7:03 pm HW

    I “rebutted” all of you on my blog. :) (I don’t really say “squirrel bait” but I won’t tell on you if you don’t tell on me)

    http://www.tobeafool.wordpress.com


  11. on May 4, 2008 at 7:05 pm HW

    Although you are RIGHT ON about the fluff! We used to eat peanut butter and fluff sandwiches. Hmmm… I might have to go buy some now.


  12. on May 4, 2008 at 7:05 pm TheNorEaster

    You’re secret’s safe with me! ;)

    Okay. I just saw it. :eek:


  13. on May 4, 2008 at 7:05 pm TheNorEaster

    Good idea! Go get some fluff and have a fluffernutter! Works like a charm!


  14. on May 4, 2008 at 9:45 pm tam

    you all are weeeeiiiirrrrd!

    but i love you!!!!


  15. on May 4, 2008 at 10:11 pm HW

    You should TRY a fluffernutter before you dis northern comfort foods. :)


  16. on May 5, 2008 at 12:35 am Kelly

    dippy eggs, yup, make em for my kids all the time:) It took until I was 24 years old and married a chef to finally understand that if I go to a restaurant and ask for “eggs over medium” I could get a dippy egg!! (had to suffer with scrambled till then)
    and yous guys….you are north north east east, that’s for sure!! In Michigan, it’s just ‘you guys’. But my Grandma was from Canada…and ‘yous guys’ it is!
    Hey Noreaster, thanks for bringing me back to my “northern stability” With all that y’all talk, I actually told my kids today “y’all get these floors picked up”(it slipped out). they looked at me like I was an alien. I think I had their attention for the first time in, oh, I don’t know, 50 years at least! LOL!


  17. on May 5, 2008 at 12:36 am Kelly

    oh, and fluffernutter?? That’s just wrong. Gotta be. LOL!!


  18. on May 5, 2008 at 1:32 am TheNorEaster

    Tam ~ Yeah, we’re weird, but look at the company we keep! ;)

    HW ~ Tell ‘em, goil!

    Kelly ~ I had the same problem for YEARS!!! Except I still remember the first time I asked for dippy eggs in a restaurant and the waitress didn’t have a clue what I was talking about! And I still, to this day, remember thinking AT THAT MOMENT, “What is WRONG with this woman? EVERYBODY knows what DIPPY EGGS are!” :lol:
    But you know, Kelly…You’ve really GOT to try a fluffernutter! It’s good, it’s gooey, and it’s sugary!!! ;)


  19. on May 5, 2008 at 1:37 am Kelly

    I could NEVER EVER EVER put that stuff in my mouth!! I refuse to eat white bread, it’s the equivalent of glue! Or PB that is not natural peanut butter, cause it’s like eating a pb and shortening sandwich. So to put marshmallow cream on peanut butter on a sandwich?? Ugh. It’ll never happen. I just can’t see whole grain bread, natural peanut butter with no salt…and marshmallow cream!! Can you??
    OH! and the eggs…it was so bad with us…I didn’t even know they were called ‘dippy eggs’ till I was married! My dad made the BEST dippy eggs, so in honor of our last name, we called them “Shea eggs”. Try finding those in a restaurant!! I had never even had the courage to ask!


  20. on May 5, 2008 at 1:50 am TheNorEaster

    Well, look at the bright side, Kelly…

    …You can at least laugh that I put that stuff in my mouth! ;)

    But you’re right…Whole grain bread, natural peanut butter, and mashmallow fluff IS a bad combination! I mean, when you’re gonna have some junkfood, might as well as skip the healthy stuff all together. (At least for one sandwich, anyway. :lol: ) When I cook at home, for me, I try to keep it healthy–short grain organic brown rice and corn works wonders.

    After making a video like that, I would never have a problem ordering “Shea eggs” in a restaurant. In fact, you know what…I think I’m going to do that the next time I order breakfast here in the “Northnorth Easteast” in honor of your “smiling toes”! ;)

    But speaking of foods…I once mustered up the courage to order…Really, I did this…but I once went to a restaurant HERE and ordered…

    …two eggs over medium, home fries, BISCUITS WITH SAUSAGE GRAVY, AND GRITS!!!

    And I did it all…I suffered through ALL THAT…because I wanted to try to relate to Mandy…but I couldn’t finish eating. By the time I was halfway done, I was in the ambulance on my way to the hospital with a heart attack!


  21. on May 5, 2008 at 2:27 am alece

    these were fantastic!

    man, you guys are so creative!


  22. on May 5, 2008 at 2:47 am TheNorEaster

    Thanks, Alece! I was hoping you’d stop by! And now you have! So I can smile one more time before going to work! :smile:


  23. on May 5, 2008 at 9:03 am HW

    My husband draws the line at sausage gravy. He can’t do it. And in NC at the state fair they had DEEP FRIED Candy bars! We didn’t try that either.

    So… is Mandy avoiding us? LOL


  24. on May 5, 2008 at 9:23 am mandythompson

    NO!!!! i was at the Red Sox game yesterday!!! that’s why i’ve been gone!
    LOL
    and i come back to THIS.
    a fellow redsox fan dissin’ me for all the world to see.
    i’m speechless.


  25. on May 5, 2008 at 9:27 am mandythompson

    ok.
    in all seriousness… this was one of the funniest things i’ve seen in a while.
    i think tam and i might need a commercial break next time.

    and i DIED Laughing over Charlie Daniels. yes. Georgia IS that bad!!!!!!

    and then you went and chopped down her family tree. OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!
    LOL!!!!!

    your southern accent ain’t half bad, if i must say so myself.

    GO SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!


  26. on May 5, 2008 at 11:43 am Kelly

    I will be so looking forward to your waitresses response! Who knows, maybe she’ll know JUST what you’re talking about;)
    Now, my husband makes some mean Sausage Gravy and biscuits!! Notice the order is changed…cause they are not biscuits WITH gravy, they are gravy WITH biscuits!!
    But yeah, can’t do too much of that. Although there are times we will have a breakfast for the whole church and make that…and you just about have to raise people from the dead to get a response out of them after that…they’re all laid back in their seats groaning!
    But grits? There is not even a restaurant anywhere around that even has those as an option on the menu. I think they are more likely to know what “Shea eggs” are!

    as for your breakfast order…even in the south…they don’t order all of that in ONE SITTING do they??? Mandy??


  27. on May 5, 2008 at 12:18 pm TheNorEaster

    I found Mandy’s comments buried in the moderation file. I don’t know how that happened because people who have commented before are supposed to be able to avoid that file.

    But there she is. For all the world to see.

    By the way, Mandy…since you WERE at the game yesterday and I HAD TO WATCH IT ON TV then you DESERVED TO GET DISSED!!! I’ve been Red Sox fan since I could walk, but I have yet to make it to Fenway. :evil:

    I’m glad you laughed…always wanted to make “youse guys” laugh. ;)


  28. on May 5, 2008 at 12:19 pm TheNorEaster

    Oh. And thanks for saying that my “southern accent” ain’t half bad!


  29. on May 5, 2008 at 12:20 pm TheNorEaster

    Heidi:

    Up here, some fairs have deep fried twinkies, which I guess comes from the South. In fact, it must. NO ONE else could EVER come up with something like that!


  30. on May 5, 2008 at 12:23 pm TheNorEaster

    Kelly:

    I’ll let you know what the waitress says. And I think I’m going to have some GRAVY WITH BISCUITS. Gonna skip the grits, though. Gonna skip them thar grits!

    When I was in Guifport to help with the rebuilding a few years ago, my good friend Richard made a joke about how much I eat. It was right around Thanksgiving so he said, “If you ever invite TheNorEaster to your house for Thanksgiving, you’d better throw an extra bird in the oven! That guy EATS!”


  31. on May 5, 2008 at 12:25 pm TheNorEaster

    Oh. Yeah. One more thing, Mandy.

    If you should ever happen to have an extra ticket to a Red Sox game, please let me know. Boston is only an hour and a half away. If that.

    Which means that you’re 45 minutes away if we meet halfway.

    Can you IMAGINE the stuff we could come up with?!?!?!?!

    Just a thought. But Mr. Glove has been asking me if he can make a cameo appearance on MTTV. He won’t shut up about it. So I thought I’d ask. ;)


  32. on May 5, 2008 at 4:02 pm mandythompson

    LOL!!!!
    i’ll have to have my people talk to Mr. Gloves’ people.
    he he!!!

    boston – tickets were definitely a miracle. we don’t ever get them… but if there are extras! ok.
    :)


  33. on May 5, 2008 at 4:52 pm tam

    uuummmm – i just chatted with my people at the Family Tree Bureau of the Deep South and they are planning on filing a complaint against you. Sorry Nor. I tried to convince them that you just aren’t right. They knew that. Took it into consideration. Weighed it carefully. But in the end – they really just don’t care.

    Therefore they advised me NOT to allow Mr. Gloves anywhere near us, for he may be dangerous and chop up any remaining twig that is left. And. Well. That would just be a crime. And I care for you too much to let that happen.

    Maybe we can track down Mr. Gloves Mrs. tho ;)


  34. on May 5, 2008 at 5:05 pm HW

    You are in trouble now!!!!!!


  35. on May 5, 2008 at 6:30 pm TheNorEaster

    Mandy~About them thar tickets, Sounds good! And THANKS!!! :smile: About Mr. Glove, he won’t leave me alone! He wants to be on your show! Maybe at least a file photo or something…?

    Tam~I’ll keep an eye out for that thar “compliant” from The Family Tree Bureau of the Deep South, but it’s not going to do them much good. Because Alabama-In-The-Middle-Pennsylvania won the throwing-axes-at-pigs-in-the-morning-for-supper-in-the-evening contest three years in a row. And that gives them a controlling interest in All Things Deep South. Sorry. (Plus, they were really hungry and couldn’t figure out how to boil water for macaroni and cheese.) Mr. Glove doesn’t have a Mrs. But you could see about contacting Miss Latex Glove, who chopped him at the end of the video. She might be interested. Then again…she just got a Hollywood contract for her cameo work so that might not be possible.

    Anyway…Have youse guys forgiven me……….?


  36. on May 5, 2008 at 10:28 pm TheNorEaster

    You want a SEQUEL to THAT?!?!?! SERIOUSLY?????? :shock:


  37. on May 5, 2008 at 10:45 pm TheNorEaster

    Oh…I think I can come up with something. ;)

    Maybe not once a month or so.

    But. Something. :grin:


  38. on May 5, 2008 at 11:28 pm gchyayles

    hahahahahahahahaha

    I only got through the first one and I am rollin!

    hahahahahahahahahaha

    NE [May I call you that for short?]: I live in the North and I say ‘yall’ all the time. I have to say I was “converted” though–I’ve only been in the States [period] for 8 years and I am straight up “country” as my friends like to call me. I mean “yall” “why you say that” “fuh real” and then some! I mean I went from a straight up British accent to the above. Classic.

    Okay I think I’m done laughing *tears rolling down my cheeks* On to the next one….


  39. on May 5, 2008 at 11:47 pm lei

    Hey there – came over from Mandy’s blog and I am cracking up . . .you got the mannerisms down and everything. Impressive. :-)


  40. on May 6, 2008 at 2:58 am TheNorEaster

    gch: So…how did you like the second one…? :smile: Yes, you can call me, NE. Anything but “Alabama-In-The-Middle-Pennsylvania!” :lol:

    lei: Yeah. You know, Mr. Glove was really worried about those mannerisms! ;)

    So…Whaddya think? Should I do a sequel next month…?


  41. on May 6, 2008 at 8:18 am HW

    Absolutely!


  42. on May 6, 2008 at 10:18 am TheNorEaster

    Hmm. Well…we’ll see.


  43. on May 6, 2008 at 2:40 pm gchyayles

    lol yes I liked the second one!

    haha re the dippy eggs! I have no idea what those are btw!?! I probably do but there’s probably a different name for that in England. I already get looked at weird by waitresses/waiters when I order a “fried egg.”

    Definitely a very entertaining evening. My husband was looking at me like what on earth are you listening to HAHAHAHA.

    You have me curious about your password protected post EEEEEKKKK. I didn’t even know you could do that. Hmmmmmmm *mischevious smile*


  44. on May 6, 2008 at 2:56 pm TheNorEaster

    gch:

    I think I’m going to wait for the second one before I explain what “dippy eggs” are. Of course, it all depends on what MTTV has in store for me, too! :eek:

    Glad you liked the second one. ;)

    That password protected post is a “private screening” meant for one set of eyes only. Sorry. :???:


  45. on May 6, 2008 at 3:53 pm TheNorEaster

    I just made two fluffernutter sandwiches.

    Well, it was supposed to be two.

    But I drifted so much that I forgot to take the second slice of bread out of the toaster. So now I have, like, a triple-decker-fluffernutter!

    Just thought I’d share that.


  46. on May 6, 2008 at 4:36 pm Kelly

    “So now I have, like, a triple-decker-fluffernutter!”

    BLEECCKKKKTHH!! And you think the sausage gravy and biscuits was gonna send you to the ER with a heart attack???
    Can you say “death by high-fructose hydrogenation”???!!!

    LOL!!


  47. on May 6, 2008 at 5:22 pm gchyayles

    WOW I need to buy a dictionary to help me out with these terms. What in the world is a fluffernutter?????

    I like gravy and biscuits =D


  48. on May 6, 2008 at 6:01 pm Michelle

    Here I thought you were a health nut! :lol:

    Yes, Gchyayles, biscuits and gravy are the BOMB!!! :D


  49. on May 6, 2008 at 10:49 pm TheNorEaster

    Hey, every once in a while I treat myself. I try to eat healthy, for the most part, but I figure after all that work I did on those videos– between all the wardrobe changes and cracking up so hard it took TWO HOURS just to film–but I figure I deserve to treat myself after all that work.

    But I’m not worried about “death by high-fructrose hydrogenation.” Nope. Not me. But if I do make another one of those videos, I just might die laughing. My stomach still hurts from when we were filming. And we finished filming 5 days ago.

    Think I’m going to have some biscuits and gravy and Shea eggs tomorrow morning. Another treat. Why not? Haven’t I earned it?

    A fluffernutter is a fluff and peanut butter sandwich, which I TRIED to explain in the video, but my mouth was kind of stuffed. So stuffed some of the fluff kind of, like, fell off my face.

    But my triple-decker-fluffernutter was pretty good! I’m paying for it now, though. Ugh! Gotta say, I ain’t as young as I used to be! :oops:


  50. on May 7, 2008 at 8:01 am Kelly

    You’ve solved the mystery!! Now I know why Christopher Robin loved Winnie the Pooh so much! “Winnie the Pooh, Winnie the Pooh, tubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff, he’s Winnie the Pooh!”
    He was stuffed with Marshmallow Fluff!!!

    and you made me smile/cry/smile this morning. To see *Shea eggs* Honestly, I don’t think I’ve even said the words since my dad died, until I told you about them. And I happened to have a dream about him last night. Which is God’s way of letting me hug my dad before I get to heaven. I’m sure of it. So, hugs last night, Shea eggs this morning…tears and smiles and more tears.


  51. on May 8, 2008 at 5:11 pm hislifeformine

    Nor…that was great! And the comments, even more disecting of the video. Love it!


  52. on May 8, 2008 at 8:55 pm TheNorEaster

    Thanks, HisLife.

    You should have seen me during the filming! But we only had 20 minutes of video to use–on a disposable, one-time-use camcorder so there was some stuff I had to cut out. Mr. Glove was NOT happy!!!


  53. on May 9, 2008 at 5:21 pm alece

    not sure how you did that — the lock-down on the blogpost — but that’s pretty impressive. and i won’t take it personally than i don’t have a password.

    seriously.

    i won’t.

    and… uhhh… can you come back to puppy love and help me out. my husband’s creaming me at the moment.


  54. on May 9, 2008 at 9:23 pm TheNorEaster

    It’s 9:22pm right now. And we are creaming him! Totally! ;)


  55. on May 9, 2008 at 11:06 pm TheNorEaster

    By the way…that lockdown is a birthday present for Michelle. So…that’s why I kept it secret. :smile:


  56. on August 14, 2008 at 10:47 pm Michelle

    Nor…Phat and I just watched this again.

    Thanks for another laugh. :D


  57. on August 15, 2008 at 12:42 am TheNorEaster

    If you think that was funny, wait until you see Episode 2!!! ;)
