Hi Adele,
Greg would never wear duck pants either. Now maybe if they were on a shirt he might. I know he will wear shirts with fish on them-In fact he left for work this morning wearing one. And I know he will wear shirts with golf stuff on them. But ducks might be pushing it. I guess he leaves most of the shirts with pictures up to me. You know-now that I think of it why doesn’t Quacker Factory ever make any duck shirts? Doesn’t that seem like a huge oversite? I know years ago they made a tee shirt that said Quacker on it in rhinestones. I still have mine-it’s probably a collectors item.
I got that witch shirt too in the purple. That yellowy shade of green that they sometimes use is not my best color. I did finally get that pumpkin shirt when they put it up during the show that it was on but you had to be fast. I also got another pumpkin shirt and anther Halloween shirt so I should be set for the next three months of fall. Of course it’s still 90 degrees and too hot for long sleeves but that will change. The grandkids love the Halloween and Christmas shirts. We have so many conversations about the pictures. It is worth it just for that alone. I’m glad they did the Falloween show earlier to give everyone more time to wear the clothes. That was a good idea.

Cynthia,
I got that shirt in the orange too. Wanted the black but I missed the first part of the show and the black was gone. They make such cute holiday designs.

Adele,
Okay, now your house is officially a potato soup zone. Everyone’s a critic-right? I smell a strike. lol
You know I was kind of surprised that the town let the guy keep that mailbox up myself. After all it is basically the figure of a naked woman. I can’t remember he if he decorated it for Halloween-i remember a Santa hat, something for St. Patrick’s Day and Mardi Gras beads so there must have been something for Halloween.
You know I tried to order that new pumpkin shirt last night but it came up as being sold out-I’m sure it isn’t but they probably don’t want to release the inventory yet for fear it will be sold out by air time. I did get a couple of those sets of shirts last night. They make for some nice basics.
Can’t believe that we have had another police shooting. And Fox Lake is in our area of the state too. So now there is another man hunt for me to worry about. Hope they catch these guys. All the police families across the country must be so worried about their loved ones.
How do you like the new cast of DWTS? Gary Busey should be interesting. I can’t picture him going through all the hard work. I saw him on Celebrity Apprentice and just when you would think he was completely crazy he would come up with some genius idea. He’s like a mad scientist. i saw that Rumer Willis is now going to be appearing on Broadway in Chicago. I wonder if being on DWTS helped kick start her singing/acting career. I’m happy for her.
Hope I find some Quacker treasures today. Loved Patrick’s duck pants!

Hi Colleen,
I’m excited that you got the wine DJ’s. That’s such a pretty color for fall and winter. I think a lot of the pink and light purple shades should go with a wine color. They also had a matching exact color in those sets of two shirts last night.
I worry when I write to Babara and hear nothing back. It makes you wonder what is going on. But it’s out of my hands.
That was odd that there was a whole new set of girls in the doctor’s office. It would make you wonder if you were in the right place. I think I could use the chiropractor myself this morning. We went to a memorial service last night. We were there for quite a while as it was for a member of the local folk community and there were a lot of people getting up and talking and singing. It started about 7:30 and we left at 10:00 as it was already an hour past Greg’s bedtime. Anyway, it was in a church with wooden pews and after sitting on those for 3 hours my back has been killing me. I had to get up in the middle of the night to take some ibuprofen. I guess there is something to be said for the Catholic mass where there is sitting standing and kneeling. Not quite so hard on the back. It was a beautiful, fitting tribute to Judy though filled with the music that she loved. She always did like my Quacker clothes too-now that I think of it.
You know I can’t remember ever being a tucker with my pants or skirts. Maybe years ago with a button down shirt back in my youth-but once everything changed to sweaters and t-shirts I’ve always been an outside shirt wearer-and now i couldn’t tuck if I tried -too much basketball belly. Even the models don’t tuck as most of the Quacker clothing is designed to be worn out I think.

Yes, being in the desert you have summer practically all year round. But I’m sure that you don’t miss the ice and snow of the winters.
I saw those diamonique bands. They were quite pretty and reasonable. I have had diamonique for many years and they really wear quite well and unless someone is carrying around a loop I don’t know if people can tell the difference. I think most people think they’re real and I mix the two together. When I first started watching the Q many years ago they seemed to have many more styles. I guess interest has waned over the years-but I still enjoy my pretty pieces. I’ve always loved gems of any size shape or color! lol

Hi All,
It’s going to be a scorcher. It’s 10:30 and I was just outside and it must already be 85 degrees. For some reason this struck me funny. I walked to the end of the driveway to put something in the mailbox for pickup. It’s garbage day and when I looked down the road I realized that the new neighbor must be doing some remodeling as sitting next to his garbage can was a toilet. This just gave me a chuckle and then I was wishing that I had a life sized mannequin that I could take over and sit on that toilet to give a laugh to whoever was driving down our street today. There’s a mailbox on the way into town that a guy put up last year. It’s a life sized painted white naked female mannequin. At first when he put it up it would make me jump when I drove by at night because it seemed like there was an actual person standing at the side of the road. Now I’m so used to it I don’t even notice it’s there anymore except around holidays when he decorates it-although he’s never seen fit to clothe the poor woman. lol One day I drove by and some graffiti artist had painted the nipples red. He changed them back to the original white though-I guess that was too scandalous for him. Anyway, these are my crazy thoughts for the morning.
I sent Babara another e-mail yesterday. I don’t know if she will respond or not. Perhaps she has lost interest. When somebody e-mails me I always try to respond. It may not be that very day but I like to let the person know that I have received their e-mail. I know she was upset when she thought we were losing our chat pages so I would think she would want to come on here. Maybe something else is going on in her life. I just don’t know. I just hope that she and her family are all okay. I wonder if there will be new sign ups on here after the Quacker shows tomorrow. I still can’t figure out how we went from 6000 to 3000 members. Did everybody get the original sign up e-mail but only half actually came over and signed up or did they only bring over half the members from the other site. I’m still trying to figure that one out. Hoping for some new Fall/Halloween designs and am anticipating/dreading when they start bringing out the new Christmas stuff as I have absolutely no resistance to the Christmas clothes. As it is I have to start wearing my Christmas stuff right after Halloween and into the new Year to get it all in. lol The clothes should come with a warning label-“these clothes are addictive and may be hazardous to the health of your closet racks.” “May cause extreme overcrowding.” “Extra closets are highly recommended.”

QVC plus-on Dish Net it’s channel 255. Don’t know where it is on other providers. The majority of programming is reruns of what happened about 3 or 4 hours previous on the regular channel and sometimes they throw a live show into the mix. Occasionally Quacker will have a live show on that channel-they will announce it in the show schedule on this website. 90% of it is repeat programming.
