Thanks for the head's up Goddess... I am NOT gonna return to that thread. I might get burned at the stake!

I hope you don't mind if I tiptoe in here and just be embraced by this threads gentle tone.... I'm a newbie, and it's a jungle out there. :) Just came in from the "live feeds". Marc wants to do a hygiene intervention on Gerry, I ran in horror at the idea. :(

My momma who is a sweet Georgia gal always told me "honey, there are two things a person does not discuss at a dinner party, religion and politics. It gives people indigestion and they will blame it on your cookin'."

That's a good one, Earthmother and so TRUE!! My momma always said "keep your tailgate up." Words of advice that can guide you safely through any situation in life.

That sort of goes along with the other one my mom always said (about sex) "It don't grow back honey you ain't no fruit tree."

Uh oh - Karuuna just bit and went after Verdana, and Marci just listed everything wrong with Gerry. Bethethreadbethethreadbethethread.

Oh H E double toothpicks no, Karuuna is over there kickin' some butt. If there's one thing I've learned first hand, you do not want to get into a debate with Karuuna. The woman can argue (in the debate sense, not in the quarrelsome sense.) I'd be convinced that the sky is green and the grass is blue after a debate with her.

Oregon, you and I have stayed out of it. Why don't we just nuke up some kettlecorn and agree to enjoy the fireworks? I'm never up late enough for that, anyway, unless I'm in the middle of it. My only concern is that someone will finally say something to cause me to get in there and napalm the whole thread.

Even tho this is the Zen thread and, by definition, ought to be free of violence, I think each of you ought to give me a big kick in the behind. I just could NOT keep my mouth shut and just HAD to start this up again this morning. <sigh>

Turning around, holding breath, waiting for the first boot print...

Can you taste my shoe polish yet?

hahahahahahaha, you made me spit skim milk!

I like this thread. But frankly the other crazy debate threads never really get me aggravated. And since we're sharing good old sayings, here's the one I remember when I start getting a little hot under the collar. An old preacher fella told me once "Someone got your goat, eh? Well, just remember that no one can get your goat, unless you got a goat to get."

Blissfully Signed,
Former Goatherder Karuuna

I think watching the "Christian Jason thread" really has turned into a spectator sport! What's it called--schadenfreude? These days I save up my energy for the really big, important battles, like if Amy is cute when she's sloshy or just what the heck was that thing was on Lisa's butt. I have my priorities. :)

Karuuna, I thought you, Verdana and Sanfran were in charge of the entertainment tonight? Should I put away my popcorn?

You better not start trouble here Costacat!! lol

I have a skull and crossbone next to that other thread. I would sooner drink water from my dirty soup pot than set one dirty foot in there.

Costa - to explain - it's the violence of the blow to your hiney which would cause you to be able to taste shoe polish. Now, we need to chant because we're way off theme . . .

Newbie to this thread....had to take a break from reading that thread when Foodbunny mentioned public officials in Texas having to swear to a higher power.

Now I don't know that firsthand because I've never wanted to run for public office but I'd be willing to bet that the same oath or a variation of it is said in at least 35 of the states in this great nation of ours.

::breathing in:: ::breathing out::

I can't stand it when TX is brought up as either a backward state or hick state....makes my blood boil....

I need to breathe again....

Since you seem to be overlooking my comments in another thread where I originally posted this, I thought I might bring it here.

Although, now that I think about it, there are several posters on these boards that this could apply to. Not trying to stir up trouble, just an amusing observation on my part. AND it's meant totally in awe and amazement on my part.

Goddessatlaw et al: Why is it that, after reading a post by you, I am usually looking for a closing line such as:

"Your witness"
"I rest my case"
or even the classic
"If the glove don't fit you must acquit"

Hmmmm....JMO - FWIW

Goddessatlaw

Sunday, August 11, 2002 - 05:38 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Yup, I'm a lawyer like that. Mostly the your witness part ("do what you can with what I just said"). (PS please don't bring Johnny Cochran into this thread - so much bad karma)

Uh oh, I hope this doesn't turn into the thread version of an after-hours bar where everyone shows up already wasted and spoilin' for a fight.

(Not really worried, just making dumb jokes in court jester mode.)

Sorry, Goddessatlaw, I only play for my own amusement these days. However, if others are entertained by that, it's a pleasant byproduct.

Now, back to business... ohhhhmmmmmmm, ooooohhhhhhmmmmmm.....

Actually, Oregon, today it seems more like the corner chair between rounds.

I think I'll put on a flak jacket and then join everyone in a group hug!
They are puncture proof, right??

Oh, yeah, Ohhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm, oooooohhhhhhhmmmmmmmm
