Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Good morning Sandra!

It's to early for me to think, I need to go get everyone ready before school but I will have a think on it :)

Sandra | 25912 comments Teal is a colour, the name of a type of duck, a crayola crayon colour, also in computers, the color teal represents software that is well-written and efficient with no glitches.

Teal'c /ˈtiːəlk/ is a fictional character in the military science fiction television series Stargate SG-1. Played by Christopher Judge, Teal'c is a Jaffa warrior from the planet Chulak.

http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teal...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teal%27c

OK so any inspiration popping up on names?

I quite like Teal'c - he's a warrior, and he's hot!


message 6: by Zaanodes (new)

Zaanodes | 804 comments Ok, I live in Jacksonville, Florida. The football team here is the Jaguars. They're colors are black and...TEAL!!

I love Stargate and Teal'c!!

As for team names...mind not awake. Give me a few.


message 7: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments Zaanodes, on the other wiki page I didn't link, it mentions footy team colours, including the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Penrith Panthers which isn't my team but it's close, the team next door so to speak. LOL


message 8: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments I spent a lovely afternoon with Hawke and I highly recommend it. Now all I can think about is Tealc's eyebrow as he says "Indeed". Bizarre.. :)

As far as football goes I'm Scottish and a Celtic fan but that's soccer(?) to you. I do love Cat shifters though. My brain isn't quite working today.


message 9: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Do either of you want to take the reins? or the whip as the case may be :)

Team Captain anyone?


message 10: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Oh and I sent a friend request to you, Zaanodes :)
when Heather arrives I'll send her one too


message 11: by Zaanodes (new)

Zaanodes | 804 comments I only have internet at work. Being Captain would be difficult.

I will have to come in on the weekend to research books UNLESS Steph lists (picking a number out the air) 30 shelves that I can have already researched and picked my book.


message 12: by Zaanodes (new)

Zaanodes | 804 comments Top Cats...'Cause our token is going to be on top!!


message 13: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments I like it!

Sandra was a great team leader in our Bingo game (hint, hint!).

Have you looked at the category list? There's seems to be quite a diverse list and with having 2 categories to choose from I hope it will be a little easier for you.


Heather ~ Marceline | 1017 comments Oh my gosh, so much happened while I slept last night! I live near Seattle Washington so it is only 830 am here :) I'm so excited to be on a team with you ladies! Zaanodes, great to be on a team with you again! Hmmmm teal name, I have to say I am one of the least creative people :) so I am flexible on the name thing.


message 15: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (last edited Jun 03, 2011 09:04AM) (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments OK, OK, I can take a hint :)

CC4 is a game of strategy, so it'll be more tricky than Bingo. I do play chess though, so at least I should be able to recognise the sneakiness of the other teams. hahaha

Zaanodes, the categories are much easier to negotiate around than the shelves from Bingo. You should have no problems. Things like colour of covers or authors names starting with a particular letter etc.

And good idea on the friending Michelle, I'll drop a request to Zaanodes. Heather is already my friend, just didn't realise till I saw your avatar Heather. hehehe


message 16: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Lol, the kids have a Toy Story connect 4 that I'll be looking out to brush up my skills! And playing connect 5 on the kindle should help too :)


message 17: by Zaanodes (new)

Zaanodes | 804 comments What I did for Bingo was research all the shelves before hand. When the shelf was called I already knew what book I was going to read. It was so easy. Within minutes, I was usually reading the book for that week.


message 18: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Hi Heather!

I'm over in Scotland it's 5pm now. It took me a bit of getting used too when we played bingo. I've learned to be patient while other people sleep! and not get to jealous that I miss out on the fun while I'm sleeping :)


message 19: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments Actually its just past 2am here & I was thinking of going to bed.

Zaanodes, you can still do that if you want, it should be even easier than Bingo, cause you'd have more choices. Wait, did Steph post the categories or just examples? I'll go look.


Heather ~ Marceline | 1017 comments Sandra I'm crushed that you didn't remember we are already friends. LOL! ( I only have 10 friends so far so it is much easier to keep track) I love your dragon shelf and have selected many of my TBR from your lists :)


message 21: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments Yep, they are just examples, but a lot of them will be categories for sure; especially the obvious ones.

I'll leave you lovely ladies chatting & I'll catch up tomorrow.


message 22: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Goodnight!


message 23: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments Heather, I knew we were friends as soon as I saw your avatar. You're one of 2 Heathers on my list :)

Goodnight all :D


message 24: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Zaanodes, maybe you could research the main ones - Vampires etc, different coloured covers, a range of different authors etc. I know it won't be perfect but it would be a start? It might make it a bit easier for you for some of the weeks.


message 25: by Heather ~ Marceline (last edited Jun 03, 2011 09:46AM) (new)

Heather ~ Marceline | 1017 comments So I googled words containing teal and found all sorts of words including various forms of stealth so I cant do any html on my phone but wecould bold the teal within stealth??? Or steal or do a play on it

Or gluteal is in the region of the glutaeus, oh boy!

Then finally anagram land : teal tales

ugghh so not creative, sorry!


message 26: by Michelle (last edited Jun 03, 2011 09:55AM) (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Like Team Stealh?

Gluteaus - Four bums came to mind - LOL! I can say no to that one.

Stealthy four?

or Stealthy Cats?


message 27: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments You can tell I've not had much sleep in the past 36 hours... can't you? LOL!


Heather ~ Marceline | 1017 comments Lol Michelle! Yes you got what I meant on that, thanks!


message 29: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Lets hope someone thinks of a good one, my brain turns to mush when put on the spot! :)


message 30: by Zaanodes (new)

Zaanodes | 804 comments Ok, I am reaching here...

Teal'c's Toppers
Teal'c's Top Cats
Stealetto Babes

I am just not coming up with much anything!


message 31: by Heather ~ Marceline (last edited Jun 03, 2011 01:14PM) (new)

Heather ~ Marceline | 1017 comments Oh my, Teal'c's Toppers is hysterical... makes me blush, though if you didn't mean it that way you now know where my mind is, Lol!

I like Stealeto babes or something with Stealetto

Blush away!!


♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡ | 494 comments Hmmmmm.... Just checking out who we are up against. Soooo hello from the "purple people eaters".

How about "Teal Turtles" so you can read slower than us! That would be great! LOL! Just kidding! I think you guys may be our competition... hmmmm.


message 35: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments ROFL!

Thanks, Steph!


message 40: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments Hmm, ok I'm back from the land of grocery shopping :)

I'll do a list of names so far:

Teal'c
Team Stealth
Stealthy Four
Stealthy Cats
Teal'c's Toppers
Teal'c's Top Cats
Stealetto Babes

I think we'll avoid the Glutes and the Turtles :)

Any others you want to add to the list?


message 41: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments I can't think of anything else but I'm not really awake. For some reason sleep is alluding Ava-rose and she wants to party :( at least my boys are still in bed.


message 42: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments Michelle, is it about 6am there? If so, good luck for the rest of the day. LOL. Little ones party whenever they feel like it.


message 43: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32719 comments Ah, hang in there, Michelle. *smiling @ partyin' little ones* <--maybe they're excited for CC4 too? ;)

She had me up before 6 this morning and I was didn't go to sleep until late as I was reading, the 2yr old crawled in to bed with us about one then toots had me up. I'm dropping them at my Mum's later. The plan was for a pamper session before going out with my Hubby to celebrate our anniversary, but now I'm thinking nap!

@Steph - it wouldn't suprise me! All 3 of them have inherited my love of books :)


message 45: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments Now, Michelle, that is a great thing. A love of books at any age but especially young, is fantastic!


message 46: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments I must admit to be proud of the fact, especially now that my 6yr old is learning to read. Watching him read a story to his little brother & sister is adorable! :)


message 47: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Have a lovely anniversary celebration!

(Sorry y'all nixed turtles....really liked that*sob*)


message 48: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Thanks Judithe!

It's nothing personal... we just don't want to tempt fate ;)


message 49: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25912 comments LOL Yes, I forgot to say Happy Anniversary!!

Excellent news on the 6 yr old, I did the same thing to my younger sibs and they both read, though sadly my sis reads mostly for work now, and has no time for pleasure reading.


message 50: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Thank you!

That is a shame, real life does get in the way sometimes.
