Last week I posted a opinion piece about “Single and Alone for the Holidays” (No I’m not going to post a link! That article has run it’s course.)
You would be surprised at the number of responses I received via “Freep Mail” (There were millions!…well dozens.) Anywho, the thought occurred and was suggested by “Texana RED” (thanks for giving me permission to use your name) that next year we should have a Freeper Christmas Party for those of us who are single adults.
The original thread (No, I’m still not going to post a link.) was about how non-responsive churches are to the needs of single adults, especially during the “Holidays.”
What do you think? …About the idea of a Freeper Christmas party, I mean.
Think about what you did this last week… do you want to go through the same next year? Tell us! Maybe we all can make it happen!(The party...not the link to the other thread...which I still refuse to post!)
What are your plans for this New Years?
Oh no you don't - you're gonna bring it with you to the party next year so everyone can take a shot at it... LOL!!!
I'll bring my 3 1/2 inch buckshot shells and my 12 gauge Mossberg :D
Ouch. Doesn't sound like a fun experience. I've heard similar stories from other Gateway owners, though. My office had ALL Gateways when I got there (for desktops, anyway), and was just preparing to replace the old ones with more, in spite of the problems they'd had. I had a hissy fit and whined and complained and carried on, and they changed to Dell. We still have the first batch of Gateways that were ordered when they were starting to replace things, though. They keep me employed. ;-)
LOL! Though even that may be too fast for the evilest computers. It's almost too bad that they contain some pretty toxic stuff...I'd enjoy disembling mine down to the last screw and torching it bit by bit. Nasty thing.
To sit here, watch my kids' feet grow, and get older alone. Isn't that sad?
Nothing wrong with that.
Hm. Now I can feel even better about bashing them every chance I get. Thanks!
And that makes perfect sense. My parents bought a Gateway in 96. I bought mine in 97, and it was washed up in 98, and I finally had enough that spring and got the Alienware.
Heh heh heh...
