Name Dropping

I still like the word, and if it isn't in the dictionary, it should be.

I drive the red and green underline-y things bananas on my Word program. They, in turn, drive me to distraction. Now on spellcheck I hit "Learn"(! dammit).

[AnnaZ]

I feel like going back to B&N with a handful and sticking 'em in every copy of Bias they've got. Heh heh heh...

[HangFire]

I'll get Walden's!

[AnnaZ]

This meeting of the Hollywood Resistance Force(©) is officially in session! (LOL!)

I still like the word, and if it isn't in the dictionary, it should be.

I can dig it! I have been known to disconventerate a word here and there myself. ("Discover," "invent," and "illustrate!") I'm afraid it's in my blood. And quite painful too!

At one time, there was a company that was in the business of "selling" words; they came complete with a legal certificate of ownership, and no one else could ever own your word unless they bought it from you! I bought one for my father. Something like "accentify," but I honestly can't remember it! (It was a word he made up while instructing his French language students, and it did make sense in that context.)

I didn't keep the information regarding where I bought it, but if I rememberate correctically, I found the company through the ads in the back of Writer's Digest magazine. I subscribe off and on, and right now I'm on "off!" *G* If I come across my stash (I'm a packrat!), I'll check the ads, though! ;-}

We need more visitors from the north to come down here...!

But I don't have any rollerblades!! :)

[Beep]

But I don't have any rollerblades!! :)

"Moi aussi!" But put a rollerblader on ice skates if you want sweet revenge! ;-}

[vikingchick]

But I don't have any iceskates! :)

[AnnaZ]

But did you figure out what your "Viking name" would be?

[vikingchick]

Yes, it was something really embarrassing (sp?) because I chose the bunny as my favorite animal. I think they were ready to kick me out of my own clan. :)

[AnnaZ]

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

(The bunny?)

Nifty Bookmark! Had my birthday on it, so I saved it as a little present ( with your say-so, Cap'n Flint )

Be fun to see how {the undead) Pravda-US holds up in the 'sunlight' of honest ridicule. Whatta great jab -- Dubya style!

-Crowcreek (FReeper before th' mast), at yer service ma'am . . .

[AnnaZ]

My birthday was the 13th... unfortunately the day the Dolphins and the President choked.

;^)

Glad yours was more keepsake-worthy.

[Lancey Howard]

Do you want to be on the BUMPscription List?

Yes. Thank you.

[vikingchick]

Think of the bunny in Monty Python/Holy Grail. That's the one I meant. :)

[HighWheeler]

Here is your ping we talked about last night.

[Beep]

ROFL!! You can borrow mine; they don't get much use down here! ;-}

[Beep]

Howdy Anna!! I got my bumper sticker in the mail yesterday, but I can't drive anymore, and my tush isn't quite large enough to host it yet! *G*

[Psycho_Bunny]

No, I'm sorry but I don't. It was pre-FR update and I don't get it in a "self-search" any longer.

Keep on slammin', Merc.

OMG! I'm watching "Law and Order: SVU," and they just mentioned that one of their suspects is from Kewanee, Illinois -- Hog Capital of the World! That's just a hop, skip, and jump away from my hometown of Galva! (And it's true, Henry County is the Hog Capital of the World! Kewanee has a yearly "Hog Days!" It's priceless!) (No, really, check Google, and check it out! LOL!)

I was just gonna let you know that I'm "Captain Mary Kidd." ???? (I confess; I are ignorant on this one!!) But then I just had to comment on Kewanee! (I took dance lessons in Kewanee. And piano too, come to think of it!) OMG! They're famous!! (Now I can name-drop too! Just think of all the hogs I can impress!)

;-}
