I joined. I heard a rumor you were passing out ponies to new members.

So, where’s my pony?

😃

(Actually, I’m hopped up on sinus medication so I _might_ have heard that rumor incorrectly…)

I am number 69, and I refuse to apologize. Oh hell, it makes me giggle like a schoolgirl.

The other huge selling point for **Skip** and **auntie em** ’s place is that you can _actually edit your posts_. Not that it did me any good, but smarter people might like the ability to fix their typos.

For sixty glorious minutes after you post you are the Master of Your Domain. **Una** and her board, the **UnaBoard** were kind enough to give me that idea.
