RE: Is there a better alternative than Internet Explorer ????

Thanks SF and others, for that tip.

I've been using Mozilla Firefox for years now, and had not heard of Google Chrome. Must download it then.

RE: If a man's stool is a bright pink! What should I do?

You got me on this one, Rilly.

It's well after midnight here.

Well done, though!

RE: The Good Morning Hot Croissant Thread

Hi phoenix,

Nice to see you.

I look forward to checking out your links when I get to my other PC maybe tomorrow.

The lady you so endearingly refer to as your 'brainspace', would be thrilled that you dedicated the above song to her.

Very sweet.

RE: Finally Real

Hi SF.

It seems as if things may be changing for you in the 'LOVE' department.

All the best to you.

An uplifting and 'hopeful' post. Thank you for sharing.

RE: The Good Morning Hot Croissant Thread

Hi Sommer,

And thank you.

Nice to see you

RE: The Good Morning Hot Croissant Thread

Hello Lili

Nothing to forgive. But just thought I would prompt a small reminder. So sorry you aren't feeling well.

But what is thing called, LOVE, that you mentioned?

You must whisper it to us all.

RE: The Good Morning Hot Croissant Thread

Miro, how could you forget your business partner? I am not married, and I'm not off knitting somewhere.

Just because I live in Australia for now, it seems that it's a case of "out of sight, out of mind"

Anyway, to prove to you that I should be included and thought of more often on this chocolate croissant threat, I shall announce that I am a fan of "Little Britain". That should do the trick.

In fact, I bought myself 2 Little Britain T-shirts as gifts to me. Though one is not about croissants, it IS about sweet pastry.

Now let me take it off, so I can read it, and write it out onto this thread....

OK, here goes. It reads:

CAKE.
YES. CAKE.
WE ALL LIKE A BIT O' CAKE,
DON'T WE?
I KNOW I DO. I LOVE A BIT,
I DO.I LOVE A BIT O'CAKE.
I DO. I JUST LIKE CAKE.
CAKE

RE: any ladies who is interested in mathematics???

You nut.

I know I am going to regret asking..

but what is a tong, in this context?


(*She is becoming so educated on CS!)

RE: HI all.....

Sounds like you want company at Christmas.

Well, if that's the case, I can only suggest you plan to do things differently next year.

Contact some old friends

Book a ticket to somewhere with a group of people your age or whatever age takes your fancy.

Get in touch with a family member(s)......

You can make it however you wish with a bit of planning.

RE: If you were an animal what would you be and why?

May I make a slight digression here...

Glad you haven't asked Prince Charles to participate in this.

You'd think he might answer 'corgie', but no, all he ever wanted to be was ...

a 'TAMPON'

We all know why!

RE: Cell Phones at a First Time Meeting,Yes or No?

It must get pretty strained having so many emergency calls, pretz!

RE: Cell Phones at a First Time Meeting,Yes or No?

I agree, it is rude if the person has no legitimate reason to answer the call(s).

I had a friend whom I had known for many years, and lived outside the country at the time. We caught up when he was in town and had just sat down alfresco and about to order, when the cell phone goes off. Well, I was used to that happening on occasion as he was in business and a bit of a wheeler and dealer. Well, the call went on, and on, and on. I began to feel a bit of a goose. So, instead of feeling stupid just sitting there, I summoned the waiter and soon ordered some of their most expensive wines, and the tastiest of morsels. So he could take his time for all I cared! Unfortunately, he wasn't the least bit fazed at my ordering. Instead he complimented me on my good taste.Darn!

RE: is love at first site real?

Do they sell this in Oz, I wonder?

I think I may need to get hold of some too.

RE: MERRY CHRISTMAS CS!!

]/b]

So true.

Merry Christmas, holly, and all on this thread.

RE: is love at first site real?

I believe you can. Because I believe there are people we are meant to meet and be with.

Which inherently means there is a cosmic kind of attraction there that brings the two people together in the first place. The getting to know you bit can be arduous, but it's really kinda only filling in the details.

RE: My Countdown Thread

How romantic, ms.

Wishing you and your lady love the most fabulous first meet and beyond.

RE: MY BEST FRIEND BETRAYED ME AND DECIDED TO SPEND CHRISTMAS DAY WITH SOMEBODY ELSE !

Hi Rilly,

As always, you have some rilly great ideas and advice!

RE: MY BEST FRIEND BETRAYED ME AND DECIDED TO SPEND CHRISTMAS DAY WITH SOMEBODY ELSE !

Awww, gilly. I hope you're not serious.

If I could, I would have come over and spent it with you.

RE: My Dear Friends

Hi Wil,

A special hello to you when you see this.

You are an amazing young man. I love seeing you continue going in leaps and bounds as I see you pop up here and there just lately again.

And you always have a wise and uplifting comment to offer people here. And often when a person needs to hear it most.

Peace this Christmas and beyond. And may next year bring you some lovely new surprises.

RE: I´m a forgotten old time CS member.

Not here. Well, sometimes I feel a bit lost. And sometimes I am unhappy. I cannot tell a lie.

But mostly, I am the opposite.
I can only speak for myself, it's true, but I wonder if your judgment may not be a tad harsh, from the kind of people I generally choose to relate to on CS.

Merry Christmas to you, Jan. I have seen you around. But I have only been here for a matter of months.

RE: Go On Have a Laugh

OK, vinny, I will look out for a stray envelope

Well, I'm convinced that a part of us always remains
"a teenager".

Thank goodness

RE: Starting Threads !!!!

You had better get back on track, then.

RE: Starting Threads !!!!

But vinny,

You are a self-professed drunken Irishman.

At least the popcorn is virtual

RE: Starting Threads !!!!

They say popcorn helps.

Sometimes.

RE: Starting Threads !!!!

Anyway, I could start a thread right now, Sassy.

But I wouldn't come back for hours. It's Christmas morning here, and I am about to get the roast going.

Mind you, with 31C today, glad I won't be home to enjoy the HOT kitchen

Keep talking. Back in a few moments.

RE: Go On Have a Laugh

Just remembered.

My ex-mother in law, now passed, was part of Irish.

But living in Oz and married (then divorced)to a Germanic type herself, kinda threw her humour genes out the window!

RE: Go On Have a Laugh

It's Christmas morning here now, vinny.

Santa did come.

And in keeping with the 'naughty' theme,
he left me a Suzi Quattro CD.

The lady lurrrved black leather

Oh, and I ain't posting nuttin' here about the Irish air, Sep and being naughty. Oh, no, ya not getting me to do that.

RE: Go On Have a Laugh

You are so right, vinny.

It is 1.55am, and I was supposed to have gone to bed ages ago.

But I just couldn't tear myself away

But I really must, or Santa won't come down the chimney.

RE: The Power of Female!

Ah, wixom

A rare man who can tolerate female 'mush'!

Certain men simply turn their back

RE: The Power of Female!

Let's not be so hasty.

My mind is mush right now!
