What’s a Pop-Ice??? They’re those plastic tubes of flavored sugar-water that you freeze to make a popsicle…yummy…and you can have as many as you want 🙂 ::goodmorning kisses:: [flirting voice]"Two processors, oh my! But then, I’m got more RAM than the bible’s got psalms [/voice] Sounds good to me, cause I know I’m surely doomed after adapting House of Pain to this :eek: :💏: [sub] 2615. You betcha :💏: [/sub] ---

OH!!! Gee, you mainland folk sure have funny names for Critter Pops. 😃 It’s so good to be home, sweetie. ::long hug:: [flirting voice]"I bet you’ve never seen expansion bays like _this_ before! "[/voice] Great, flirting in computerese. :💏: [sub] 2637. Hee hee, that tickles! [/sub] ---

Critter Pops? That sounds creepy–and way too insect-related for me… It’s good to be home at Bard-land too… ::embrancing Audrey:: [flirting voice]“Well, \* I \* can swap from docked to undocked mode…”[/voice] Well, I suppose there’s a few thing’s that would be even geekier to flirt in, but I can’t think of em right now ::kisses:: [sub] 2642. Not as much as this ::tickle:: [/sub] ---

No, no, the Critter Pops weren’t insecty. Each flavor (strawberry, grape, cherry, vanilla, lime, orange, I think) had an animal with a cheesy name drawn on the plastic. I haven’t had one in years. 🙂 ::enjoying hug:: [flirting voice]“You can zap my PRAM anytime, cutie!”[/voice] 😃 [sub] 2646. Eek! Oh yeah? ::tickle:: [/sub] ---

Critter Pops, eh? Intriguing… 🙂 I’m always astounded by the blue in candy/sweets; what flavor is it in theory? :💏: [flirting voice]“sure thing, babe; wanna hot swap my drive bay?”[/voice] 🙂 [sub] 2662. ::giggle and thrash about:: ahhh, can’t get away! [/sub] ---

Blue… I’ve seen blue as vanilla, (generic) berry, mint, and …mango? I think so… rarely is it ever blueberry. Vanilla blue shave ice is wonderful, perfect for hot days. [flirting voice]“Is that a SCSI adapter in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?”[/voice] :eek: 😃 ::whispers:: Good night, sweetie pie. Sleep well. ::kisses:: [sub] 2664. Get away? Oh, never! ::tickles more:: [/sub] ---

Hmm,I usually see blue as blue raspberry, which I’ve never understood. What kind of raspberry is blue? [flirting voice]“Nahh, it’s just my 10 inch port expander and docking bay”[/voice] ::eek: Oh my, that was just \* wrong… \* 🙂 Morning sweetie…hope you slept well ::good morning kisses:: [sub] 2679.

Morning, sweetie! ::happy good morning kisses:: I slept very well, thank you. I had thoughts of you to keep me warm and happy. :😊: I guess they could use red for raspberry, but red’s already overused- strawberry, cherry, watermelon… mmmm, watermelon… [flirting voice]“Need any help upgrading your hardware?”[/voice] :eek: Wait a minute. Ten inches? Oh my… Never mind, you don’t need an upgrade… 😃 [sub] 2683. There’s something funny and cute about a five-six girl holding back a six-three athletic guy. 🙂 [/sub] ---

Night sweetie; I’ll be heading off to homework and sleep very shortly… ::good night kisses:: Yeah…but blue…raspberry? Maybe black raspberey, or make it purplish-red… [flirting voice]“Sweetie, you can overclock my CPU any day”[/voice] 😃 Actually, I think 10 inches is about average for a port bar…now pardon me while I go laugh, blush, and laugh more about that… [sub] 2699. There’s something funny and cute about the five-six girl, anyway 😉 [/sub] ---

Hi sweetie! Since you went to bed already, I’ll post you a good morning message. 🙂 Black for raspberry would be cool! Can you imagine, say, a black raspberry Slurpee? It’d turn your tongue black.
