Gran keeps that in her modular jail cell. ;-)

[grannie9]

Oh yuck.. I don't ever want those ribs again. Waaaay too smoky... I'm glad I had some celery stuffed with cream cheese and olives.. Calmed down that horrible smoke taste... :(

[habs4ever]

Was that awful taste before or after you lit up a Marlboro Light?

[Sundog]

Aw... Shucks...

It was nothing. Over on another thread Jim Rob kept popping up with responses, and when that happens hundreds of posters come out of the woodwork to toss out attaboys or comments. As I rummaged through them, I started seeing these tag lines from banned posters like Snow Bunny.

When I went to reply to them I got very curious about how such was possible. After sleeping on it, I realized, somebody just pasted chunks of code from a page back into the reply to make one reply look like it was two or three.

Knowing Darksheare is such a jovial and understanding person, I used one of his posts to try the technique.

That is all there is to it.

Cheers.

[grannie9]

You are starting to scare me.. Are there any men on this thread that us wimmin shouldn't be afraid of???

[Sundog]

No, No, No...

I always envision DarkSheare as a fellow like DarthVader with his helmet in his hand...

So it naturally follows that it would be reasonable to pretend such a post came from him...

That is all there is to it.

Cheers.

I keep hearing the music from the Twilight Zone, and expect Rod Serling to show up any minute now...

[Sundog]

Here is a peace offering. Sorry I was so rude.

Can we all get back to normal now?

[grannie9]

LOL... I know just what you mean.. How come we're the only two wimmin on a thread full of weird wonderous men?

I'm afraid my gecko looks more like a worm.. lol..

[grannie9]

Ummmm... Sundog.. You were not rude..and what is normal?? ;)

[grannie9]

That is beautiful... and I see that it's one of Bill Atkinsons.... ;) I have him bookmarked....somewhere.. ;)

[grannie9]

Oh look, Bamboo by Bill..

I know this will disappear... ;)

[Kathleen]

What Gran said, Sundog. Thanks for the pretty pic. ;-)

[Kathleen]

We're just lucky, I guess. Most women couldn't handle these guys quite like we do. ;-)

Your gecko is very cute and doesn't look like a worm at all. I wish I had a fraction of your artistic talent, Gran. *sigh*

[grannie9]

Ahh deary..how do you know you don't? I only picked up a brush around seven years ago..and what I"m doing now is entirely different. I"ve never done much with Acrylics at all.. My daughter just started painting less than two years ago.. and she just muraled her son's bedroom.. All four walls..

Just try copying something sometime... You'd be surprised what you can do if you want to.. ;)

Never say never.... I don't believe in it.. ;)

[Kathleen]

I can bake a killer carrot cake. ;-)

[Sundog]

Thanks Grannie, Kathleen

That sure is pretty bamboo.

One of my co-workers was diagnosed with inoperable pancreatic cancer last friday, and today we all went out on a company lunch in his honor, Doc gives him 12 months to go.

We've been teasing him, he needs to buy a Harley and go on a road trip for the remainder of his healthy days.

Chemo and Radiation knocked him down pretty bad...

Trouble is, I depend on him to release software.

Sad.

[Sundog]

Killer Carrot Cake

Cheers.

[Kathleen]

Hmmm that looks interesting, Sundog. I do so love carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. ;-)

I'm sorry to learn about your co-worker. No wonder you're having a tough time concentrating on work today.

[grannie9]

I feel bad for your workmate. My Sis died of the same thing three years ago this coming summer.. She was inoperable too..

Most Pancreatic cancer is that way, because it is always far along when they find it.. It's a very subtle cancer..and hard to find. They treated her for indigestion for over a year or more.. She wasn't given a choice of Chemo or Radiation..

I hope he's not too young a man..but either way..it's hell..
