Hi - Sumer,

From a wet & stormy Ireland.

-- Chris (enquiries@griffenmill.com), December 04, 2000.


Yo...present and accounted for.

Been heavy into decorating and shoppin'...and I ain't done yet.

Hi Sumer, I am Taz, the cranky old lady that does a lot of spittin' and whittlin' and giving unasked for advise.

-- Taz (Tassie@RuralFlorida.com), December 04, 2000.

G'Day sumer,

Checking this forum regularly but am grievously suffering from Yankee election blues. Almost afraid to clock in for fear of being battered and bruised by more inanity - but I do 'cause it's the silly season....sheesh!

Pleasantly hot in OZ, close to heaven really...hardly any rorting politician in sight...couldn't possibly last...hehe...cheers!

sumer,

Trying to shake this evil flu that almost took me out and enjoying the whole election dog and pony show immensely.

Hey Sumer!!!,

Just cookin' like mad in the back and runnin' up front to sling some liquor and refreshments to the wild throngs.

Sorry bout the paper plates and plastic forks but I ain't gonna wash all this shit. Next.........!!!!!

HA!!!! Did you say shit? See MY LATEST THREAD...

-- sumer (shh@aol.con), December 04, 2000.


I'm going looking for al_d. Any ideas where to start?

-- (kb8um8@yahoo.com), December 04, 2000.


Yea,I chuckled about that too,talk about a segue.But I still ain't washin' em'.

-- capnfun (capnfun1@excite.com), December 04, 2000.

KB8...I saw al over at the Unsensored spinoff, net's place....and at Poole's Roost also. Maybe this place is just too wild for him...NOT!

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 04, 2000.

shhh! I suspect the "real" al_d left months ago, but the last set of posts were excellent. I liked them because they were a good indicator of my mental state. When they started to make sense, it was time to go home, or if I was home, it was time to log off and do something else.

Besides, I miss the conversation about the ducks, which reminded me of this guy who used to be in the cubby next to me. He raised ducks, too, but he had to give them away when the CIA hired him and transferred him to Spookland.

-- (kb8um8@yahoo.com), December 04, 2000.


Yup, corn n soybeans is harvested; still sloppin hawgs and the missus is patchin them overalls.

Am I a regular or a homeless drifter without a forum?

-- Uncle Bob (unclb0b@aol.com), December 04, 2000.

Keep drifting Bob.

-- Jack Booted Thug (governmentconspiracy@NWO.com), December 05, 2000.

Regular lurker, rare poster. Been around for a loooong time. Spooky, huh?

-- (I'm a@little.teapot), December 05, 2000.

al, great news about the chicks! Keep them warm. When they get a little larger, they'll be more entertaining than anything on the the TV.

-- (kb8um8@yahoo.com), December 05, 2000.

Hi you little teapot!

-- kritter (kritter@adelphia.net), December 05, 2000.

Yo, 'sumer!

Oh, Uncle Bob -- fret not -- just know that there are places in the world for that which you might be. In fact, I hear the latest new car option that's all the rage is a drifter in the back seat who says, "Hey -- yer door's open."

On the downside, though, I have to tell ya that I understand Wrigley's turned down a suggestion for marketing its Doublemint Gum -- "The Doublemint Drifter." Alas...I guess they felt The Doublemint Twins somehow came across as more upbeat and wholesome. I dunno -- go figure.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 05, 2000.


Just got back. I don't even want to know what happened when I left or why Unk the Hunk started his own board. Just pass the beer.

-- helen (b@c.k), December 05, 2000.

I am still here. Althought for about 2 weeks out of every 12 my teenage son is here, and during that time I find I am unable to get anywhere near my own computer. The only time that I can post during these periods is when I am on night shift dispatch at work.

Does anyone else find that they lose their computers to teenage children for any length of time?

-- Malcolm Taylor (taylorm@es.co.nz), December 06, 2000.


Malcolm -- just say no. I swear it works. Remind the kid that insurance companies and other fun businesses require a parent's written consent to provide services for a minor. Threaten to home school and leave out military school pamphlets. Throwing the breaker to the machine is a sure way to get the teenager's attention. Actually, you could leave that breaker turned off and pretend you don't know what's wrong with the machine. If you can't use it while the kid is there, what difference does it make if the kid can't either? In fact, if the kid is bright enough to move the machine to a different outlet, you could disable the machine internally before the kid gets there and claim it's broken...then don't make the time to fix it.

Yes, this is all about lying and throwing your parental weight around. Remember, these are teenagers. All is fair in war.

-- helen (b@c.k), December 06, 2000.


Just so ya'all know I am not dead. My apologies to "I have" and "Boswell" for the fact that I am not dead.

I thought Futureshock played a Nixon trick." You just won't have me to kick around anymore". Or was that Kruschev?

-- Boswell (fundown@thefarm.net), December 11, 2000.

It's as if ye never left...

-- Bingo1 (howe9@shentel.net), December 11, 2000.

FutureShock, I'm pleased you're still around to share your dark humor. teapot, didn't I see you a while back on one of the chess threads. Come to think of it, I don't often see dandelion.
