RE: Preparing for a date

Marlin, where do you stand on stockings and suspenders?

The love thing

Crazy, hey, and what brought this blast from the past? Did you work out what love is? You gonna share?



Hi Kenan and I've lived without it for an awfully long time. The tinseltown version, I mean. How would you define the love we cannot live without?

RE: Can We Bring Back The Old Blog Format Please....

Er, I was agreeing to your blog, not to any comments

TW is a desperate flirt and will break your heart

RE: Can We Bring Back The Old Blog Format Please....

Crazy, agreed. I actually said so earlier today, we must be on a psychic friends network

Right now the loonies seem to have taken over the asylum but when we can find where they have locked the mods (or maybe discover their bodies, uhoh) we can ask them please to give us back our viewing blogs by lots of different bloggers

RE: why?

Oh, I meant only that you wouldn't be prim or disapproving, more likely to be down to earth, if not downright earthy, and generally unconventional but sensible. Am I wrong?

RE: why?

Palm I can't imagine you giving advice that a young man wouldn't jump to take

RE: You're So Vain....

nice reworking of the song

I've been posting some recent exchanges from Johnny's blog (names and faces obscured) on Twitter and they are going down a storm, although some tweeters think I must be making them up, that no-one in real life could be so totally mal. Oh, sorry, that's a South African word, let me give you the copy/paste dictionary definition, which did make me laugh.

Afrikaans, English. mal, barmy; crazy; daft; deranged; dippy; fatuous; foolish; frenetic; insane; lunatic; mad; madly; moonstruck; non compos mentis; nonsensical



Another song that's been reworked for CS is Hotel California. The problem with getting new bloggers is they look at some of the existing blogs and run.

The only way to attract quality new bloggers is to keep adding comments to the good blogs, to keep them on the first screen, and avoid commenting on the toxic or dull ones. Or at least try to preserve a balance. So every time a toxic blog is pushed up to the top again, good CS citizens could comment on a normal one

RE: Bucket list

Emmy, you're a truly happy woman. WOW.

RE: Women and men....... Goop......

Good news, the male cosmetic industry is booming and set to top 60 billion dollars by 2020.

Humble

Oh aye, we've all had our kickings! Usually when we were riding highest ...

Mercedes, missed your comment earlier. I'm guessing you do not mean that in a good way

Man vs machine



Nah, no-one who had an option on a sword-wielding defender of the home would want a robot anyway

Hey, Vier. Colour me a little puzzled, when did my name become D? And I just had a quick glance at your list of forums and can't see a MRC review?

Can only say any plagiarism was unintended I'm primarily a story-teller, the whole robot thing is fairly topical at the moment, and since there are absolutely no real topics left which don't cause arguments, I thought I would do a joking review. I didn't think one had been done before, but there you are, there are no new subjects under the sun.

Oh, and yes he smokes a little bit, but soon cools down.

Crest, the system is like an electric car, recharging when at rest, with up to 5 hours battery life under normal conditions. This drops to as little as an hour under extreme conditions, though.

The MaRC is an android, so fully human in appearance, no additional attachments. An Edward Scissorhands type was considered and rejected.

Mimi, your Dim Sum is world famous, could you program the MaRC to follow your recipe?

Ken, it was like you were there

Straight into the technical heart of the development, too. You have the mind-set to be joining the design team

It's the spider-removing function I find the most vital, though.

The floor is yours

In general, then, the MRC can listen without ever looking bored - but can’t make jokes

It has only three expressions (caring, happy, or thoughtful) (controlled by the remote)

It can’t drive -

Well, it’s early days.

They did ask what other features I thought the average woman would find essential in a MaRC and I promised to blog about it and ask. Simple but essential stuff, remember, the price has to be kept down for that BOGOF.

Appearance-wise, they come in three generic types, at this early point - the classically handsome, the brooding latin lover, and the outdoors weatherbeaten type.

I thought the last was the least plastic-looking, but eventually, in theory, they’ll be available with any face the buyer fancies. Unlike online types picking a handsome photograph and pretending it is their own, this will actually look like the chosen face. Okay a 3D copy of the chosen face but hey.

RE: "GET IN LINE"..("ON THE BORDER")

Nam, stand down red alert

Sorry about hijack, as you were

RE: "GET IN LINE"..("ON THE BORDER")

Nam, just letting you and other friendly bloggers know, in public, that Z posted a link showing that blogger was doing a little photograph stealing - and for this warning to all genuine bloggers, has been closed down.

Thought you might be interested. I personally think the bloggers who watch out for trolls are doing us a favour, but it seems the mods find trolls perfectly acceptable.

I'm expecting to be blanked out any minute ...

RE: Hidden or Deleted profiles.

Many reasons for blocked profiles. One new one I hadn't seen before, you can be pushed by the mods for exposing a fake. Interesting reason.

RE: A 'Smile' on Sunday.

Hey Luke full marks to the young family for letting the judge play cat and mouse with them and it was a great ending

RE: My blessing, today my daughter was flown in rom Frisco and will drive with me back to the West Coast

LJ, it will be interesting to see if living in the state which wants to break away changes you in any way, or if you end up changing it

All the very best in your new life

RE: 58,000th BLOG!!!

Hat as promised. Not as fancy as yours, but more girly.

Had not realized how tired I was looking until I took this selfie
