oh, and good morning.

well...I rate because I got a private email from him and he's probably up to no good.

When Joel is silent, I get worried.

G'Day anyway.

Good morning BHA.. Joel is indeed okay. I've gotten a couple little pms from him.

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 6:22 am

I feel so left out. Nobody every crushes me, and no PMs from Joel. *sigh*

Morning! (Drive by posting again......don't talk to me.......smoooches galore)

buckethead alien · Post by **buckethead alien** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 6:22 am

Damn, GE! Is there anyone you don't get PMs from!?

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 6:24 am

*sniff*

giggles. I don't get pms from Giggles.

Thankfully don't get pms at all. Sorry ladies, couldn't help it.

=) Good morning!

Oooh Ooooh Oooh! We could have a Sockstatute Joel with the log in known to a dozen (or more) posters and we could take turns trying to be him. See who can be oneryiest.

Here's a different sort of wake up call.
http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f ... AMQHR1.DTL

I find this somewhat puzzling:

State Department spokesman Lou Fintor said the government chartered flights only in special circumstances, such as when commercial flights are unavailable or during emergency evacuations.

So the tsunami was not a special circumstance? Just happens everyday?

Landgraver said, however, that he had received a no-fee replacement passport from the U.S. Embassy five hours after applying for it, as well as a toothbrush and a crime-thriller paperback.

I've been wondering about that paperback. Does the embassy give them to all visitors in an attempt to boost the american publishing industry? I've been spinning some of the typically over the top fishy scenarios on that book.

oh, this is pearl, i think.

probably made papers due to Badger's LTEs that he wrote a few days ago.
kick ass & good work, badger.

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 10:50 am

Details make me pretty darn sure it is Pearl. Taht's why I posted. Don't know why I didn't say so.

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Sun Jan 09, 2005 6:01 am

Yes it is.

buckethead alien · Post by **buckethead alien** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 3:05 am

Well, here it is eplaya peepz, another Monday morning: jobs, school, errands, shovelling snow if ya got it, the whole nine. My suggestion is to remember to do something nice, no matter how small, for yourself or someone else. I'll start by wishing all of y'all a Good Morning.

(but where's Joel?)

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 5:39 am

I'm still not Joel, although I second fishy's idea of a Joel sock we could take turns with.....just seems kinda lopsided without him here doing his Joel thing.

{ahem}

It is morning. I have been up for three hours. Three dogs and five cats woke me up to go outside. I am in a bad mood.

cowboyangel · Post by **cowboyangel** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 7:06 am

just post some William Saffire and he'll come along...goodmorning addicts

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 7:18 am

tisha2 · Post by **tisha2** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 9:50 am

* yawn *

GOOD MORNING.

Hey pretty please don't fucking use that nickname. It gets me steamed, and it's really not all that nice if you ask me.

And the post in question "the view from here" is in the Bar thread. Not missing.

Humblest apologies, and I'll not use it per your request. Seems I was thinking of something I had wanted to share with you that day but couldn't find where I wanted to post it. *shrugs*

Not knowing you two personally and being far removed from the tension of hte situation, I arbitrarily adore the nickname.

In fact, if you don't think you want to use it, mebbe I could borrow it for myself, *especially* during the holidays or those certain moon days or those days I just don't get enough sleep or on whimsy, et cetera. The beau would concur that it's suitable, I'm sure.

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 2:10 pm

I would 2nd that it's a less than friendly epithet. I used to use it for BRR and his sitting up on his property hating us for having so much fun down on the playa, after all.

(before both yours time.)

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 2:17 pm

aaack! don't invoke BRR!

don't worry, K, they call me 'cute' all the time. especially then they're hundreds of miles away so i can't kill them.

it's evil.

God! That's sooooo cute!

I could see it being spiteful in context, but I surely didn't mean to be hateful.

I've been grinchie about this or that before, and that feeling still surfaces time to time. The nice thing about the story of hte grinch is that his heart grew three sizes, and then everyone was friends! Thinking personally again, not knowing your situation, Kristine. I love some Dr. Seuss. That man can tell a story!

In light of what it reminds me of ... and the way it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up ... and in light of what my stomach feels like when I even think of that nickname ...

Could I ask that you don't use it lovingly? Jokingly? Hurtfully (I know you didn't mean that here)? At all?

Thanks ... please don't use that nick. My name's Kristine.

Since you asked my opinion on this: I would appreciate never having to see or hear that name again. I guess I haven't been clear about what it does to me. It really makes me cry. Everytime. Even when it's in a joking manner. Maybe that's being "overly sensitive" or having an inability to laugh at myself. I am very sensitive, but I can poke fun at myself with impunity. This nickname has a hurtful genesis.

Nothing more I can say. People will do what they want.

... you want me to sit in the corner?... hmmmmmmm....

.... uh, okay..... I'll just keep the 'cute' comments to myself...

...yeah, me too! Boy, she's nasty when she's cute....
