You'd have to ask Paul, Cap'n D. ;-)

HEY PATSY! Great to see you here!

14133. Magoseph - 3/14/2005 12:47:45 PM

The Cap'n sez, "Are you kiddin'? Wonkers won't let the missus come near the Tomater Sloop!"

I just saw that answer in Sex & Gender, Cap’n—you mean to tell me that Mrs. Wonkers objects to your presence on the sloop?

Hello, Mac, Ali, and every Motie on earth, still lurking…maybe, or rather hopefully—I KISS YOU! Who said that “I kiss you”, it rings a bell--who used to say that, do you remember?

14134. alistairconnor - 3/14/2005 12:57:56 PM

Come now Mago - let's not call the roll of the dear departed. That only leads to talking about people behind their backs. You never know when they are going to pop up again.

They are all welcome back. Especially the one you are referring to.

14135. Magoseph - 3/14/2005 1:40:39 PM

Oh, I wouldn't do that, talking about them that way--you know, Ali, I always make a point of only saying nice things behind people’s backs. As a child of six, I was vilified because I said to everyone who listened that I saw the priest kissing Mme Barnouin on the lips—I was long gone when the priest decamped with her, but I never forgot how ostracized I was for a long time, which was for ever at that age.

Anyway, I suspect that some Moties may not mind coming back and say hello to us, but maybe if they did, some may be the butt of jokes elsewhere.

I am so disappointed that I did not win 5 million in the weekend lottery.

14137. alistairconnor - 3/14/2005 4:03:02 PM

So am I, but this disappointment is mitigated by the fact that I didn't buy a ticket.

In the same vein : I'm disappointed that I didn't get jumped by Catherine Zeta-Jones, but it's not really surprising because I didn't invite her to drop in.

14138. thoughtful - 3/14/2005 4:20:48 PM

Pelle, glad to hear that you're ok, just stressed. I was getting quite concerned. (NOT to be confused with 'concerned'!)

14139. Macnas - 3/14/2005 4:29:16 PM

Was she in the locality? you have to play the odds alistair.

14140. judithathome - 3/14/2005 5:53:49 PM

We won $120 on Saturday's Lotto!

14141. alistairconnor - 3/14/2005 6:51:03 PM

$120... play the odds... you mean, like trying for a pull in a local bar?

14142. Macnas - 3/14/2005 6:54:17 PM

Well, the odds of pulling Ms Jones go up substantially if you happen to be in the bar at the same time she is. Never mind the odds of her being there in the first place.

Well done judith!
What would I do with $120?...hmmm......I could use them as beer vouchers I suppose.

14143. Ms. No - 3/14/2005 8:29:15 PM

Mago,

I KISS YOU!!!

Comes from a website created by a Turkish guy to try and get dates. It was sort of a personal ad and one of the things most often repeated on it was "I KISS YOU!".

Diva-licious brought our attention to it and it just sort of stuck and became a standard greeting. One of my faves!

14144. arkymalarky - 3/14/2005 8:37:56 PM

Hey all. Congrats to Judith!

Home with a sinus infection. It's sorta depressing, since it's the first since I began an allergy program last summer. I had a headcold a couple of weeks ago that everyone else had, and I don't know if that's what started it or not. I thought I was just having an allergic reaction to something last night, but evidently not.

And I've got a huge stack of papers to finish and grades to figure by tomorrow morning, so I took meds and will hopefully get a nap in before starting on them. I didn't sleep last night, because this hit as I was going to bed. I used to call it the "fish-flop," when you have to constantly switch sides to keep your nose unstopped. I hadn't experienced that since last summer. Oh well.

14145. arkymalarky - 3/14/2005 8:40:03 PM

And an upside of dealing with my allergies, as Pelle may have noticed, since he was my early morning online companion several times, but I don't get migraines nearly as often since being on this program. I guess you don't notice how well something's working until you get a reminder of why you were using it in the first place.

14146. arkymalarky - 3/14/2005 8:44:15 PM

Mags, how is your tooth?

14147. judithathome - 3/14/2005 8:45:14 PM

What would I do with $120?...hmmm......I could use them as beer vouchers I suppose.

Keoni is buying 2 new tires with his boon...so we won't be jiggled and joggled to death on our way to Arky's this weekend.

Speaking of which, do you think you will be over the sinus attack by then? Because we can cancel if you're having a run of it; I know how that can be and wouldn't want people staying with me while going through an attack.

14148. wabbit - 3/14/2005 8:46:22 PM

Mahir - I KISS YOU!!

Ah yes, the charming Mahir, who likes sex and is waiting for your phone call...


Patsy, sorry to hear about your roof. I hope you can get to the Keys sometime.

Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary, congratulations, and all that kind of thing to all where it is appropriate (I've been away for past three weeks and have Arky's head cold now).

14149. Ms. No - 3/14/2005 8:46:29 PM

Ah! Mahir is his name. Here's a Salon Article about the phenomenon.

14150. Magoseph - 3/14/2005 9:35:13 PM

It’s funny that you asked about my broken tooth, Arky, I just came back from the dentist and it turns out that I have a bit of work to be done quickly--I won’t get into that much, since that type of thing depresses me to no end, the work to be done and the cost of it--it will be $2,000 minimum, I was told. Well, I am going to take a nap now and try to forget about what’s going to happen starting tomorrow at 8:30 am.

14151. arkymalarky - 3/14/2005 10:35:46 PM

Speaking of which, do you think you will be over the sinus attack by then?

Nonono! I'll be good to go. He put me on a 6 day prednisone pack. I had this stuff so much for years that I just got to where I worked around it, but now that I've gotten it under control, I'm determined to keep it that way. Even in AR in springtime.

Ooh, sorry about the cold, Wabbit. Must be from sharing threads. ;-)
