Take it my good friends... Smeagol will give it up thanks to everyone's good advice and help.

[RMDupree]

HAHAHAHHA! I got the Mojo Precious!

[Corin Stormhands]

Good one. Things are crawling here or I woulda had it...I hope JR gets things figured out soon.

[RMDupree]

It took several attempts for me to get to the post screen. Pretty frustrating!

[Corin Stormhands]

Yep, it is frustrating. Corin has to go work now...sigh...

Ah, the guy isn't really bothering me...just took my name from another ping list that I'm on (that I didn't ask to be on and wasn't asked if I wanted on) and bless him, he's been pinging me all morning. I just asked him to take me off his list and he says I'm not on any list of his.

Wow, this Requiem music is wild! What's the story behind it, does anyone know? Is it going to be on the soundtrack?

[RMDupree]

I'm on quite a few ping lists that I never asked to be on. I don't bother asking them to take me off because sometimes they ignore you and other times they give you an attitude about it.

As for your pinger friend, God bless him, it's not his fault that he wasn't raised to have manners.

In all my college experience, I only had one really offensive instructor. He told extremely xxx jokes at the start of each class, and I was one of two chicks in the class of around 50 guys. Not real pleasant because they would all look at us to see how well we could "take it". When some of the decent guys in class saw that we could take it, but didn't enjoy it, they felt really ashamed and THEY complained to him in class about talking that way. This guy didn't stop, but it wasn't us that looked a fool after that.

The class was a Flight Engineer (third officer, navigator) class for commercial airliners. The instructor had been a Flight Engineer for United for 20 years. NO ONE remains a flight engineer for 20 years.

I think that Requiem piece is great morning music...have listened to it a couple times! It is from "Requiem for a Dream?" Don't know anything about it before this!

Going to try to get some work done, check in later, probably.

I've taught my cat to retract his claws by saying "put your claws in". He does it! The vet was amazed! Well, going to school, I'm going to have to learn to retract my feelings. I don't know if I'll ever get used to feeling humiliated though... or singled out as if I have the plague... I am going to have to learn not to let anyone know it bothers me... then come here to the Hobbit Hole and get a pint, a wing... and the best conversation I've had in a long time. Makes Smeagol feel better...

[2Jedismom]

Well, I just freepmailed my final reply to him. I freepmailed you a copy too and also JimRob and madfly.

I don't know why, but it really bothers me when people do that kind of stuff. Usurping other people's lists. Since it happened to me, I'm just fed up with it.

[HairOfTheDog]

OK! - Well, it seems all the harrassed hobbits are taken care of except Rosie.

Hoping and praying for a good job lead for you Rosie!

If you'd ever danced on stage (as an adult) in front of an audience, you'd be forever immune to further public humiliation! (spoken as one who knows!)

[carton253]

Does anyone know how to do a lexus nexus search... what website to go to, etc. I need to do research for a speech I'm giving. And yes... I plan to get another A... and if I'm the only one who doesn't read her speech from her cards... well, too bad!

[2Jedismom]

Except the Hole is still paying for terrorists...

[carton253]

I did that in a piano recital. I totally screwed up... it was bad. I got up and no one applauded... (not that I expected them to) so I said, "a little humiliation is good for the soul."

I didn't want to be in the recital, but the little old lady who was my teacher made me. I changed teachers after that.
