okay...

i will activate my call waiting.






but i will keep track...my prediction is that 80% of click-overs will be for some inane call....that is not urgent or more important than the call I put on hold.


Afterall, if it truly an emergency, the operator can break into the call.

I will give it a run....


dunno

okay, I will throw a topic on the fire......


Call Waiting:


My thought is that if you "click over" while we are talking......
really what your doing is checking to see......if your would rather be talking to someone other than me.


Think about it.......if we are engaged in great conversation you would not put me on hold for another call....(yes if your expecting an emergency there might be a situation)


just a late night topic to discuss

In response to:
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.

I thought love was more or less a given thing,
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
What's the use in tryin'?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.


By Gerry Goffin and Carole King

sung by the Monkees


sometimes our answers come in song
and sometimes all day long I'm just wrong
A curious sidenote.....the Monkees demise was due in part because the mother of Michael Nesmith, created White Out...or liquid paper in their kitchen, while Michael Nesmith was trying to become one of the Monkees.

The Monkees began in 1966 and not long after became a hit......but White Out turned out to be more lucrative.

in 1967 Michael Nesmith & The Monkees had the #1 record.....in 1971 his mother sold 2 million bottles of Liquid paper...

By the end of the 70's the Monkees disbanded and the Liquid Paper company was sold for $47.5 million dollars.

Simply put.....NO

human beings are tactile creatures. From the day we are born touch is the strongest instinctive need we have in parallel with the need for food, drink and shelter.

Physiologically, our creator set forth certain instinctive necessities for all living creaatures.

Accordingly, in the infamous words of Forest Gump.....
nature is as nature does!

In response to:
How terribly tragic! Somethings happen that are so hard to wrap your mind around. It's too sad to comprehend.
Thank you for sharing. I know how sometimes you can read or hear something that touches you and you just have to speak out. I am normally a very quiet person but I feel so compelled to DO Something, anything to help.
Thank you!

You said something profound......

some of these fine people are now in some sort of walking zombie like state because it is just too much for them to wrap their head around.

and like you I am normally very quiet...and want to DO something....but I'll be darned if I can figure out what to will be of help....

One of my very best friends just went to the last of 6 funerals. A very clean cut and together group of young men, were driving home after a night full of basketball at a local gym.....

when the car all 6 were in.....was run off the road..(the investigation pointed at this scenerio)....

All 6 were killed when their car met a telephone pole. The official report says that at least 3 and maybe all 6 would have survived had someone contacted 911......instead they were left to die....1000 yards from gas station restaurant and grocery store....

the person who finally contacted 911 was a migrant farm worker...who was walking the 11 miles from his home to his job.



these 6 young had been together since they were babies....4 were cousins and the other 2 had brothers and sisters who were married into the other families..........



wow! really did not expect to put all that out thee....but the tragic momment in Jadegirls world....kinda brought it all to the surface.....

This is easy:

"I know that I'm deeply, spiritually, profoundly philosophical and I also know that I'm about the flakiest person you're gonna meet." - Alanis Morissette

do keep in mind she felt this way when she lived in her car.

now in her penthouse she only claims to remain flaky...hmmm?

Nope!

Any guy who says otherwise is either lying or gay.....both of which are fine.....i do not care.....but facts are facts....

ladies know a guy who claims otherwise.....here is a simple test/trial


pick a day....NOT while in the middle of discussing this question.

set the stage..however it is you would set the stage for a romantic liason.


Do the things you would normally do to entice a man.


then just put it out there......

offer to do him in ways that he will never forget.....

the answer will be clear........

either he is gay...(which is cool) or he was lying....
the proof will be clear as can be.

In response to:
After tonight, it's my firm belief that we should enforce some sort of limit on the amount of threads one can start. I ended up bumping alot of them to the second page by reviving the 2nd and 3rd page ones for those who are on dialup and cannot navigate as quickly. I am thinking a max of 4 per day is fine, any more and they can wait on it or go to bed.. instead of starting 20 new ones back to back.. then saying goodnight.

My .02
Agreed!

In response to:
Actually not diluting it per say, just trying to add all the water that the recipe calls for. Was just wondering if it would be too strong if I just left it as is.
wine making is a delicate dance between the grapes and the water.

spent many years in the Napa Valley......watched kendall jackson fine wines being made by wine master Don Sterling.....do not know much about wine making. what little I have learned makes clear that to much or too little water for the vines or in the processing can be the difference between wine and vinager.
