lol Bono's probably in some corner somewhere crying like me on Bono's wedding day (Yes I was negative 2 years old, so what?
smile.gif
) screaming "NO! THAT'S NOT WHAT IT'S ABOUT! IT'S ABOUT ZIMBABWE!" or something.

Thanksgiving at the Hewson household:

Bono: *takes a bite out of the ginormous turkey*

Ali: Baby, stop that! Let's say grace. Edge, would you like to say grace?

Edge: Eh...grace...it's...well it's the name of a girl. It's also the thought that....changed the world....I believe....Lawrence, help me out here.

Larry: O, dear Lord....thank you for all that you give us...Day by day....day by day...o dear Lord...(lol a 50 lemon prize to whoever can guess what movie I watched last night)

Adam: No, no, no. You've got it all wrong. First, you start with the sign of the cross.

Edge: O, right. In the name of Bono and of Gavin and of the Holy Tamale, Amen.

Bono: *takes another bite out of that turkey*

Ali: Ah, forget it. Larry, what piece would you like?

MullenGirl: LARRY! ASK ME WHAT PIECE I'D LIKE!

Larry: WTF?! Eh...I'll have a thigh.

MullenGirl: I got your thigh right here, Lawrence!

Edge: *Bluuuuuuuush*

Adam: *snicker*

Bono: *twix*

Ali: *Mr. Goodbar*

Larry: WHAT? Did you think I was gonna ask for a drumstick? LISTEN, just because I'm the bloody drummer doesn't mean that-- Oh, wait. It is all about the drums, isn't it? Fine, I'll have a drumstick. Feck it all.

Bono:*chomp* Mmm turkey. *looks at dish* What's THAT?

Ali: That's cranberry sauce.

Bono: No, it's not. *wipes mouth on exceptionally long sleeve*

Ali: I think I know if it's cranberry sauce.

Bono: Yes, but where are the little ridges?

Edge: Do you know about those experiments they did with cranberries this past spring? Well, you see, this farmer one day was--

Ali: Little ridges?

Bono: Yes. And it's supposed to be can-shaped.

Larry: Em...Eh, I think I lost one of me shirt buttons in the gravy...*tries to fish it out*

Bono: Adam, back me up on this one.

Adam: *cardboard Adam is standing in and can't respond*

Bono: Feck. Edge, you know what I'm talking about, right?

Edge: Do you wanna see the Carve-atron 3000? I invented it last night to carve the turkey today. You just pull this thing here, and....

Larry: No, no. I think that's...no, that's not me button. That is NOT a button. What is that? Ali, what--

Ali: So, you don't LIKE my cranberry sauce?

Bono: Well, I mean, I just miss the ridges is all.

Edge: Em....did you like that glass, Ali? Er, Alison?...*blush* Mrs. Hewson? Mrs....Bono? Em...cause I kinda broke it.

Bono: I mean...it'd be nice to give the fellas here a nice homecooked meal once in a while...

Ali: Cranberry sauce shaped like its can is NOT--

Edge: Oh...my. Well. Mrs. Hew-Mrs. Bono. I -- my Carve-atron seems to have been shooting out some sparks, and well....are you really rather attached to that curtain?...and sofa?...and...chair....and carpet? Hm.

Bono: You know what? Let's just change the subject. Sorry, fellas. Sorry, Ali.

Ali: That's OK. I know you like your...special cranberry sauce....

Larry: I think I just ate me button. What do buttons taste like? Ask Gina Marie.

Edge: Um...Mrs...Bono? I really hate to...be such a pest, but, um....did you...need that...room? Cause....man, it's gone...and um...

Bono: Speaking of which (lol, *random*) Has anyone checked out PLEBA lately? I've been far too busy fathering many children and tugging at my sleeves that I haven't had the chance. I also had this sonnet I had to finish...

Edge: Oh, the computer? It's...um..on fire....kinda....

Larry: Bono! The girls have been making fun of your seven pound package there.

Ali: Seven pounds? Where have I been?

Bono: FOAD, Lawrence.

Ali: No, wait...seven pounds? REALLY?...Larry, are you sure?

Larry: Bono, have you been posting there again under false names?

Bono: No! Edge, tell them that--

Edge: What?

Bono: About the 7 pounds...?

Edge: *bluuuuush* O I really wouldn't know...um....

Larry: They've posted, like, a million feckin times all in response to these pictures that--

Ali: Pictures? What pictures?

Larry: Oh, well just some pictures that some fans took of--

Ali: Can I see?

Edge: *bluuuuuuuuuuush*

Larry: *has pictures for no particular reason other than to blackmail Bono...or so he wants us to believe* *shows them to Ali*

Ali: SEVEN pounds? Baby, are you SURE?

Bono: Em...I'm sure the boys don't want to hear about this....Right, Adam?

Adam: *I'm cardboard, you dolt! Stop talking to me. The real Adam is out back for a quick smoke*

Bono: Hm...

Larry: Ali, is there a button in that envelope? I just keep LOSING them. I don't know what the feck...

Ali: Baby, SEVEN pounds?

Bono: I don't post there. I don't even--

Ali: WHAT is this?

Larry: BWWWAAAAAHHAHAHAAA! Is it the rugby pic?

Edge: *bluuuuuuush*

Ali: Yes! When did-- is that what that "Elevation" song was about? I thought that was just because you like to ride the elevators in the mall so much! BWAHAHAHAAA! Seven pounds....*scoff*

Bono: Edge, here -- you want to set something on fire? Set this on fire. *throws envelope of incriminating elevated pics into the firey pit that Edge's Carve-atron has produced*

*pout*

Ali: Don't get pouty!

Bono: *hmph*

Larry: Are buttons flammable? I think maybe they're just melting off me smooth self...


lol WTF was the point of that?

It would be pretty funny if Ali looked at PLEBA- I'm sure she'd want to set the record straight!

I thought TG was an American holiday too, but I guess anyone could celebrate it....... except Larry wouldn't be eating the turkey 'cause he's a vegetarian........

Absolutely hilarious!!!

I don't care if they don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Eire. The boys and Ali are welcome to celebrate with the Kellys. Then Bono and my own personal Bono can compare "seven pounds". As Ali and I both know, you don't need size to propagate!! And I'm mean height, girls!!

1900 posts? I'll be over 40 before that happens.

"I am a sexy mofo, what can I say?" --What Larry really says to himself when he looks into the mirror every morning

Question from Caller:we want to know how he's maintained his youthful looks. we think he looks so much younger than the rest of the band

Larry:let me put it this way. Michael Jackson got the idea of the oxygen tent from me. and all this hanging out w/ monkeys and shit like that, it's all to do w/ that.

They should make Bono sit at the kids' table. I still have to sit at the kids' table, and I'm taller than my Grandma! NOT FAIR.

I'm listening to JT right now. HAPPY

The sad part is, usually it's ME who's
1.) looking for the canned cranberry sauce
2.) losing things
3.) setting things on fire

when we have a big dinner. Hm. No incriminating photos, though....yet.
