Archive through August 09, 2003
Delilah | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:06 am     LOL Laisy good point, I am complaining that you all have complaints and I don't! I agree Beruthiel, I don't want to go near complex formatting (counting closed bracktes does my head in!) I stick to my smiley faces and the odd animated gif and I am a happy camper
 |
Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:09 am     I'm complaining that it takes me way tooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long to format!! I wish there was an easier way for blonds like me!! Kidding to my fellow BLONDS!  |
Laisey | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:13 am     I want to complain that Delilah's musical cat made me smile so much I'm losing my desire to complain. But I'll complain anyway. About 2:00 am Thursday two of my cats started screeching at each other and their language was terrible. As much as I hate to do it, I'm afraid they must banned from the room when the Jee3 are on the feeds. That has to be where the poor cats learned such words. |
Laisey | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:16 am     Miz, I have a solution. Rush out and buy a black wig. Put that on when formatting and you will preserve the integrity of your fellow blonds. |
Beruthiel | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:23 am     LOL! There's more fun in this thread than any other here, and a lot of folks don't know it! I must have been a blond in another life, because more than one bracket at a time makes my eyes cross, or maybe it's that math phobia I got in high school... nah, it's just too much like HARD WORK! Complaint: I'm not brainy AND beautiful any more  |
Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:23 am     LOL @ Costacat & Laisey! (Love the kitty!) My complaint is I only have 2 hours to clean my apartment before I leave for an afternoon game of Rumoli, but I can't stop chatting on here now that people are actually talking to me!! LOL P.S. I wouldn't care about the mess if I wasn't having company come over after our game! |
Lurknomore | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:42 am     I'd like to complain that I was reading my way down to comissurate with Miz and tell her that often I feel my most insightful and intersting posts are just totally overlooked (& she can sit near me too if she dares) now knows how to format better than I do! HUMPHHHHHH (least I got those puppies down). And Spunky, it sounds like you missed the fun last night so I don't want you to get the wrong idea. I really don't care for those nasty threads either. I had started a "How is AS employed thread" and we were having an intelligent, non-nasty chat about his shortcoming when a mod closed it and said it was not permitted because it violated the board policy of nastiness. Several of us involved were confused because there was only one post that even came close to nasty and that was clearly done in jest. So I suggested the OFFICAL nasty thread so we had a way to continue the discussion we were having. I would prefer we didn't go that route either as it seems unneccesary, but it's that old,where do people who are NOT over this years show go to talk about it? No mod has answered my mail or started the thread, so if I don't hear something by later or tomorrow I'll do something I haven't done in 4 years here...write Neil. Hey that's one way to meet him LOL. And I saved the thread in word so he can see how polite it was! |
Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:48 am     Thanks Lurknomore!! That was sweet of you to offer to sit next to you. Miz plunks herself down next to Lurknomore! (Come visit my thread...think it's in the members forum??) |
Laisey | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 09:57 am     Lurk, my memory is not that great in the morning, but wasn't there something said about the intent of the thread being bashing, not that bashing had actually occured? It's all too confusing to me, so if you and Miz don't mind, I'm coming over to sit with you both. And, since its almost 1:00 here in the east, I'll bring bellinis. (One of these days, I've got to try those. I'm convinced I love them just from this board.) |
Lurknomore | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 10:07 am     OMG you have never actually HAD a Bellini Laisey? Oh you must they are great! I used to go up the White Mountains in New Hampshire all the time. Our favorite Sunday brunch spot included a free Bellini or Mimosa. YUM!!! (I really should go again, it was just so much cheaper when I belonged to a ski club there and always had a place to stay.) I wonder if that place is still there? And I wonder if Peaches is still there...my second favorate spot. Least I remember their name. They specialized in homemade hashes which I never knew I liked till I had it well made. Ok I'm starving now! Hey have you have had a Hurricane? And btw hun you are right about what the mods said...I checked. I wisely saved the thread in Word. Who knew that was my intent LOLOL...that wasn't what I had in mind when I started it. I just wanted a place to talk like we were for those not cheerleading. Here I'll use my other cute ani lol

Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 10:18 am     I love your gifs Lurknomore! Three cheers for Lurknomore and Laisey!
Drink up!  |
Laisey | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 10:31 am     Lurk, Hurricanes -- oh yes; but bellinis, sadly no -- maybe it's because I'm from the mid-atlantic area and yellow peaches are prevalent, rather than white. I might have to start off with the recipe using the peach schnaps. Saved it in Word did you. Hmmmmmm, if worse comes to worse, I suppose it could be emailed back and forth between those who were posting lol. Miz, this thread always seems to have an abundant supply of bellinis and hurricanes. Just keep drinking -- I can't wait to see how much more creative you become. |
Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 11:12 am     I'm complaining that nobody is coming over to the members area and checking out my thread!!! Come one, come all!! My Folder PRETTY PLEASE??!! fixed link cw |
Delilah | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 11:15 am     Miz, I was just there! I think it is going to be a party thread chez Miz  |
Lurknomore | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 11:15 am     ROFLAMO what a hysterical suggestion...we can email the thread back and forth to those that were playing nice and having a nice, intelligent chat! Guess that reminds me there always is another thread. And nice as Miz seems I'm not sure you need to encourage her creativity...she can format better already then I can after 4 years LOLOL. We may be helping create a monster (said with NOTHING but good natured joshing Miz). You know I think that's half the problem here...seriously. Shall I phrase it as I complaint to be on topic?! I'd like to complain that folks here ASSUME (see Felix and Oscar for best ever definition of assume) they get our intent in this toneless forum. While I'm sitting here going....DUDES, I was kidding. You know humor YUK YUK. Heck I got moded for saying to someone who told me they went to bed, "I thought you went to bed?" I'm still scratching my head over that one! Seemed conversational to me.
Maybe we should plan a REAL party night here one night....lay in the supplies and really toss a few back. BTW and FYI I have had bellinis with regular peaches not just white and they work quite well, so not to worry you can get the ingredients. Personally I would choose the reg peaches over the schnapps but as I mentioned awhile back I have had a VERY bad peach schnapps experienc and have sworn off the stuff. But simplicity is best IMHO and I'd just go with peaches and champagne What I'm wondering is if I still have one bottle of honest to goodness Pat O'Brien's hurricane mix left (bottle works, packets don't). I have a funny feeling I might have consumed it one night when I did a cajun themed dinner. I LOVE New Orleans! I know I have beignet mix, but I haven't wanted the carbs or fat. |
K9lover1 | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 11:42 am     I think that was a dumb luxury. Just what the hamsters need - one less thing to do all week long. Oh well, maybe the additional boredom will bring out some more drama. |
Gina8642 | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 11:45 am     I think I will add a complaint for Erika - Laundry is a stupid Luxary - especially if they ruin clothes. I've thought Erika wardrobe has been pretty limited - I guess it didn't help that she lost one sweat suit outfit and one pair of workout pants. I'm very sick of her pink sweats. |
Laisey | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 11:47 am     Another great idea Lurk, I'm in favor of this evening. I am now going to shut everything down, change clothes and go to the liquor store. And, I might add, I am totally serious; I shall return when I have stocked up (not sure on what though). The good thing is that my bank has an ATM in the same little shopping center as the liquor store. Bye now. |
Pattie555 | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 11:49 am     I'd like to ban anything pink in the house. |
Kellirippa | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 12:39 pm     I wonder if Laisey is back with the booze yet? |
Costacat | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 12:42 pm     I need to complain. It's minor and petty but it's really bugging me lately. How do you spell "competition"? C-O-M-P-E-T-I-T-I-O-N Sound it out. It's spelled exactly how it sounds. <whew> |
Kellirippa | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 12:45 pm     ummm, Costa...bellini?? |
Costacat | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 12:46 pm      |
Misslibra | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 12:49 pm     I'll put in another complaint about the pink. I use to like the color pink, didn't know it can become very tiring to look at. |
Xarph | Saturday, August 09, 2003 - 12:53 pm     compotition? compitition? compatition? competeetion? competeaschion? kompetition? kompeteation? kompeetition? The wonderful thing about the English language is that there are so many ways to spell the same word. |
