Thank you for stopping in and saying so!

Good to 'see' you.

Ah, it can't be all that bad.
Once he's back, you'll have more time to hang out and play with us.

Or.. do what I do, find a corner, lurk, and generally be a bad influence on the younger generations.
"Now, remember kids. It's okay to point out that the Emperor has no clothes. Just make sure you run like heck afterwards."

Of course, I'm sometimes a bad influence on older generations. Found that my musical tastes sometimes rub off on those older than I.
Wonder why that is? *shrugs*
,*-) clunk.

SAM, wherever you are, tell the in-laws it's break time. LOL!

Laid back Break Time!

Thanks, for carrying on, Snippy. I like that Sam pays close attention to the Korea War. It really is the "lost" war and I confess I don't know much of its history.

BTW, my wife's a saint for putting up with her in-laws.

[snippy_about_it]

My pleasure. SAM does a wonderful job.

He'll see your post eventually and in the mean time I'll be sure and tell him you appreciate the Korean War stories. Thanks for letting us know.

In-laws can be bad enough but to stay in your house for two weeks and take over your computer room...arrgh, I can't imagine what he's going through. lol.

I'm just sure SAM is behaving like a saint also. :)

Hey, to a guy the computer room is sacred territory. And if you're a Freeper, it's even more sacred than the remote control. :)

Hey, to a guy the computer room is sacred territory.

Hey, to some of us gals too. lol. At least it is at my house!!

[colorado tanker]

Hi Snippy! I don't have time to go through the thread right now, just enough time to say thanks for covering for me today.
