Don your brain-condoms, it may be September before the short bus pulls up for Themis and her brother/cousin. \*\* Remember, I dropped out of Retardville Special High School last March. I’m gonna start filling tacos at Taco Bell this September instead. Don’t get me started on the short busses. I have numerous bruises from running into the back door because I always misjudged the distance from the front to back. Why do they even call them short busses when there’s only one seat behind the driver. 😕 Lil bro, kputt on the other hand… ---

Wussup **Poly** pretty cool huh? I learned that in another thread. 😉 So, have you been spreading the **Master’s** word to the ignorant masses today? It is a huge task we take on. BTW did you see where **Cecil** paid me a visit the other day. It was inspiring to say the least. Take care and beware, the infidels are among us. 🙂 ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by t-keela \* > \*\ ***drgnlvr** I give ya props on that…you have so far on both boards shown far more maturity than some. At least ya got enough balls (figuratively speaking, you’re female IIRC 😃 ) to not be an anonymous two-faced chickenshit or a whiny-ass mamma’s boy. Enjoy your stay here at the SDMB, it’s not for children or the weak minded. > \*\* Danke. Want pie? 😃 Actually, balls, or the equivalent, has less to do with keeping the name than old age, and loss of memory. it’s just easier to keep track of myself with only one name. As for maturity? Well **cheezy grin** Obviously you haven’t seen too many of my posts. Let’s just say I’m intimately familiar with the underside of the other forum’s couch. (yes, I’m a small dragon) ---

I actually tried posting that answer earlier but my PC is in some kind of time warp w/ the SDMB. I start typing and a few minutes later the words \ appear on the screen. Forget about preview that simply doesn’t work at all and when I submit it takes anywhere from two to five minutes before it appears on the board. MoF I just got notice that QED had submitted a post. Experiment: It took me a couple of minutes at most to type this at 4:01 AM GMT What time will it appear on board? If at all. ---

Fifteen minutes this time from submit to post! Damn that’s a pretty long wait if ya ask me. I’ve been saving w/ a right click just in case it vanishes. Now you see why I wanted to wait **johnnyk**? I want to go back and check something out. IIRC you were involved in the first trashing of **kputt** then later crawfished…does that sound about right. I can’t search a thing right now. BUT I’ll get back w/ya later. If I am incorrect in recollection I will apologize. Blame it on the sun…I have been on a roof and landscaping this week and it’s been well over a hundred in the shade. Guess what? NO SHADE where I was. ☹ My tan’s gettin so dark I’m gonna have to learn to rap…sorry. I know goddamnit, but I couldn’t help myself…go ahead let’s hear it. Hey we gotta do somethin, **Aubrey** left and **kputt** is just that kput 😃 BTW How in the **Hell** do ya break yourself from typing in these damned ellipses…? ---

I dunno. I may have ragged on him some. I know I posted a comment to give the “other side of the story”…which resulted in that particular thread getting locked…but that’s neither here nor there. What I did, I did because I felt I needed to do it in order to give a balanced view. Coldfire and I discussed things in e-mail and everything is cool. He now undertands that it was not my intent to start any sort of war and I understand his need to lock the thread to avoid any potential war. I’m sorry if one of our members came in here and started shit. Unfortunately, there’s nothing I can do about their behavior. I can only control my own so that’s what I’ll try to do! 🙂 ---
