Yeah, I admit Bosda outdid himself this time. Where is he anyway? ---

He turned on the Cloaking Device and now he can’t find the switch to turn it off. ---

**Hillbilly Queen** has not posted here in 38 minutes. Since it’s safe to assume she’s a white woman, should we call out the National Guard and CNN, or wait a few more minutes? ---

My clock was wrong. Anyhow, reading her name again, the adjective **Hillbilly** disassociates her with the middle- and upper-middle class. Therefore, she may not be worthy of our attention, or that of the media. Move along … nothing to see here. There’s a cheerleader that’s still missing in Aruba, after all. ---

Sheeeeeeeit! Sorry **elmwood** , I don’t know how that pesky ‘my’ slipped into there, I was not deliberately misquoting you. My apologies. Maybe a mod could be kind enough to fix it? ---

I had to go get my shovel. Sorry guys, for pooping in your sandbox. I’ll just leave the shovel here, incase **Bosda’s** remains turn up. ---

I had been exchanging e-mails with a Mod/Admin. The subject was rather urgent, and something that was important to me. I didn’t want to convey the impression that I wasn’t intrested. ---

Not only has this thread cracked me up, but I did want to comment on **Bosda** being a good sport. In this situation, it is an admirable thing to do with that grain of salt. ---

See, I figured it was something like that. But there was no way I was going to mention it. It was nice of the Mod/Admin to pop in and let everyone know. :rolleyes: **Bosda,** you’ve been such a good sport. I could learn a few things from you. 🙂 ---

Speaking of dead horses, hillbilly queen, if you have a problem with people ON ANOTHER FRIGGIN’ BOARD, you need to take it up with them and stop being tiresome about it here; we can’t do anything about it here, you must know that. Since all the fun has been beaten out of this, this thread is closed. your humble TubaDiva [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/in-case-somebody-wants-to-get-ahold-of-me/308524.md?page=4)
