10762. Magoseph - 8/11/2004 2:41:05 AM Ok, Pelle, that's good. 10763. Magoseph - 8/11/2004 2:44:49 AM Actually, I don't get it, Pelle. Is it a joke? 10764. PsychProf - 8/11/2004 2:48:47 AM Pelle does not joke. 10765. Magoseph - 8/11/2004 2:56:43 AM that it deserves a place in then widely read Café.
I don't understand that part. I'll wait for his order. He may fire me, though, PsychProf 10766. PelleNilsson - 8/11/2004 3:01:29 AM Of course it is a joke. You have lived too long in the US where everything has to be spelled out. A further two Swedes have arrived. 10767. PsychProf - 8/11/2004 3:10:11 AM " A further two Swedes have arrived." Now, Pellet, that is funny. 10768. Magoseph - 8/11/2004 3:13:58 AM " A further two Swedes have arrived."
I'm out of the loop on this one too. I'm not laughing. Soon, I may be crying if you two keep it up. 10769. tmesis - 8/11/2004 3:24:21 AM PelleNilsson seems like a bland and rotund specimen, in sum a human embodiment of the Swedish meatball.
I like his posts, however. 10770. PsychProf - 8/11/2004 3:27:17 AM TM...I an Oz at RI. Yes, Pelle has a number of bovine characteristics. 10771. PelleNilsson - 8/11/2004 3:33:18 AM Hahaha! 10772. PelleNilsson - 8/11/2004 3:38:02 AM Mago, Sweden's Central Bureau of Statistics is keeping track of the population in real time. Their site is here. In the down right corner you will see the pop figure. Since I posted the first time it has increased by eight. 10773. judithathome - 8/11/2004 4:12:19 AM I wasn't drawn and quartered but felt as though I'd had the verbal version of that happen...we didn't get home til after 11pm and I will never go to one of those windbag events without dinner ever again.
Folks, we have the Bush administration in microcosm in my little village. Last night, the three councilmen who have the government in a stranglehold forced the Mayor to cede power to them in lieu of being sued (by them and the city administrator) because he shut down city hall for one day when they tried to fire the police chief. The Mayor doesn't have a spare six hundred grand laying around so he gave in...
It was depressing to see what can happen when three guys get big heads and decided to rule according to whim and not the wishes of the residents. Ah well...such is democracy.
10774. robertjayb - 8/11/2004 4:20:55 AM You should have layed about vigorously with your viper-headed walking stick. 10775. Magoseph - 8/11/2004 4:22:24 AM Ah, thanks, Pelle, I wish I could read that site, then I could show my knowledge of her mother country to my first daughter-in-law. She's such a beautiful Swedish specimen and she can cook Swedish Meat Balls to perfection. 10776. Magoseph - 8/11/2004 4:55:58 AM Well, Juds, come elections, they will regret what they have done. 10777. judithathome - 8/11/2004 5:03:33 AM Yes, I think they will. And one member of the audience alluded to that very thing as he addressed one of the three, the one up for re-election in May, and the look on the council member's face was total surprise, as though he sees no possibility of being unseated whatsoever.
I can't wait for the campaign to begin! 10778. robertjayb - 8/11/2004 5:47:57 AM Relief in the jayb household! The one-and-only son has decided at last, at long tedious last, where to go for an MBA. After months of deliberations similar to those which preceded the invasion of Normandy, and after much travel and many interviews, he will attend Rice University---about two miles from his house in Houston.
I hope they have a program in decision-making.
10779. judithathome - 8/11/2004 6:11:38 AM Rice! Impressive! 10780. Jenerator - 8/11/2004 6:39:16 AM Rice is top-notch, Jay. Hearty congratulations to you, and the family. That's wonderful! 10781. Jenerator - 8/11/2004 6:41:07 AM Judith,
I share your frustration. In fact, one city council member is after my husband. It seems that he has a friendship with a prominent person, and the council member is jealous.
Youw ould not believe theintrigue and drama the turd has caused in our family.
Plus, to make it worse, he's all smiles when it's just me around.
