It’s kinda boring right now. I’m getting a lot of the “MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM” crap too. I did get directions to downtown Pasadena, if that helps any. **yosemitebabe** , the “niow” and stainless steel thing was mine – I can’t help correcting others :rolleyes:

This is a sampling of what I got:

Hmm… fan of the show, methinks.

Good for you… ask him how it felt to appear in that Fatboy Slim video, will ya? (“Weapon of Choice”, I believe it was)

After getting a few of my own back, I got this:

> My sister called me today. I was so happy to hear from her. She lives in California and we usually correspond by short e-mails every once in awhile. But she’s the kind of person that is so much fun to talk to. She has a spectacular sense of humor and is just a riot. I have 3 sisters. I’m the oldest. The one I talked to today is younger than me by just 15 months. The other two are much younger, 10 and 12 years younger than I am. The youngest is going to college 150 miles away and the other is living in the U.K. for 3 months. I miss my sisters. Which is why I was so happy to hear at least one of their voices today. I guess I just want to say cherish your siblings they can be your best friends in the world.

Might be something to think about, yes…

That’s about enough for now.

I got  
"The “No True Scotsman…” fallacy. Suppose I assert that no Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge. You counter this by pointing out that your friend Angus likes sugar with his porridge. I then say "Ah, yes, but no true Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge. This is an example of an ad hoc change being used to shore up an assertion, combined with an attempt to shift the meaning of the words used original assertion; you might call it a combination of fallacies. "

How scary.

My leaky plumbing? I personally don’t have any, thanks!

The first part could have been written by my sister, who has a thing with her friends about being stuffed cows… don’t ask. :rolleyes: But the last part could have been written by any one of us who eats too much!

> [@](#):

Well, I guess it’s a good thing that the server is anonymous (or so it says), because I’d consider that to be too much information in almost any other case! :eek: (for those of you who don’t know what it means, it’s basically a fancy way of saying, “I have to pee NOW!”)

Then I tried the URL server, and got a link to a comedy site.

**Kat** , your first message was a Tom Swifty… I used to have a book that had a bunch of them, but unfortunately don’t know where it is now.

You can hammer the concept into my head all you want, but you’re not getting any intimate revelations from me, no sirree Bob!

And then:
