[sub]From one Newbie to another… welcome to the boards. You’re doing fine **BottledBlondJeanie**. (but I have to ask… are you a Jeanie who is a bottled blond?, or are you a blond Jeanie who is bottled?

And **BooBoo316** … we’re whispering because us Newbies don’t really want to be noticed doing all this practicing… **Reeder** is being unobtrusively helpful, and **Fenris**?.. well, he’s just showing off (~grin~)… oh… and me?.. well, I’m just padding my Newbie post count.[/sub]

LOL. Thanks for the tip **warmgun** … are you speaking from personal experience? I’ve meant to spend some time in the MPSIMS fora, but I’ve been occupied with a few threads in ATMB and CS. I’ll come to MPSIMS a little later. Don’t wait up for me. Regards.

If I were you **algernon** , I’d continue to stay out of MPSIMS. It’s a snake pit full of sexually peaking women. Far better to flirt with newbies here – get in early, get 'em fresh. You’re doing great.

What’s wrong with sexually peaking women? 😛

[sub] Algernon, once upon a time, the hair was actually blond–now nature needs to be helped out a bit. However, I feel a bit bottled in my 41st floor office. I mean really, all I need are a coouple of throw cushions and to paint the walls pink and I’d be freaking Genie–any more simpering"Yes, master" and I am going to go CRAZY! So I guess I am both a bottled blond and a bottled Jeanie. How bout yourself–feel the need for any cheese lately?[/sub]😛

HA! Glad you got it.! I could probably count the # of posts I’ve made there on one hand. Mostly a GQ man, though lately I’ve been in the Pit a bit (See, **Esprix** e-mailed me and made me a member of the secret Cli…Oh, wait , forget that. The first rule of **The Clique[sup]tm[/sup]** is you don’t talk about **The Clique[sup]tm[/sup]**).  
However, **BBJ** ’s comments make me want to check it out.

Sexually peaking women…Mmmmm

I haven’t the foggiest…in one of those perfect reverse psychology moves, **London\_Calling** caused me to immediately jump to the MPSIMS to see what I could find… but alas, I failed to find any of those sexually peaking women…

Then I conclude that your name is PERFECT!!  
As for me, yours is the first cheese reference… I’ve been innundated with flowers however. Either way, I’m gratified at the recognition.

Once again, welcome to the boards… it is a fascinating place to be (and quite alarmingly addicting).

[sub]Okay, so I just had to chime in. It’s nice to see another “Jeanie” around here, even if you _are_ missing an “n” (kidding!) Anyway, to go along with the “Bottle Blond” question, I’m curious: Are you an actual “Jeanie” or is it just your screen name? I’m a “Jeannie” myself, and it’s always nice to meet another one. FTR, in case anyone was curious (and I know you all are) I was once a bottle-redhead Jeannie, but now I’m just a naturally brunette Jeannie. Although the gray hairs are coming more and more often these days, and I can’t pluck them forever, so I may be hitting the bottle again in the relatively near future. Anyway, now that I have hijacked the thread, padded my post count, and offered some personal info no one cared about, I shall take my leave.[/sub]
