[agent compassion]

In fact, I like tea so much I'm going to leave right now and go have some with a friend of mine. Then we're going to throw mudballs around for a while. And perhaps even get some more free food from the farmer's market.

[Iron Sulfide]

isn't free stuff the best?

i was at the coffee shop yesterday, drinking my bev, wondering what i
should go get to eat, when someone from the restaruant next door came
over with two burger meals someone ordered to go, but never took.

so she brought em over for anyone who wanted them.

synchronicities kick arse!

[Bella]

Free stuff rocks and synchronicity is the best.  :P

That's cool about those hamburger meals.
I had free coffee yesterday and one of my daughter's friends made me a new bracelet.

[Iron Sulfide]

i need to find a way to spread the love.

unfortunately, i live ina hateful town founded by racist, paranoid, german masons.

the traditions carry on to this day. (they make spreadin the love more like
spreadin your butt cheeks...NO VASELINE!!!)

[edit: with of course, the few random things like mentioned above)

[Bella]

It's that bad over there, huh?

[East Coast Hustle]

DEAR BELLA:

SHOULD I BOTHER STAGING AN ELECTION IN '08, OR SHOULD I JUST SAY "FUCK IT" AND HAVE MYSELF APPOINTED PRESIDENT?

[Iron Sulfide]

It's that bad over there, huh? :shock:

i had a witty response to this, but in truth, the only proper thing to
say here is: Yes, it is.

you're a bit more south than the pickle shaped valley, aren't you?

come to NY

[Iron Sulfide]

NY might be as dangerous for me to be in as chicago (on of the reasons i
didn't attend last years event)

if i were to make reservfations at a place, for example, i  leave the note "non-affiliated" after my last name....so i don't wake up with a
horse head in my bed.

[Bella]

You know where the line between Cali and Nevada stops heading straight south and takes a sudden bend to the southeast?
I live almost directly west of of that bend and about 60 miles inland from the ocean.

Dear Bella,

What's the best way to deal with someone you respect, but is completely oblivious to their own hypocrisy, and wouldn't be that appreciative of haveing it being pointed out to them?*










*In all honesty, I'm not talking about anyone on this board.

[Irreverend Hugh, KSC]

Bella, I have decided to appoint Hoshiko as Wielder of Eris' Sledgehammer. Was that good or bad?

[Donkeyotay]

I think it is good idea being that she is taking up boxing

OOhhhhh that could be her nickname...Perhaps she should get into pro wrestling and then she really could bean people with Eris' sledgehammer...She did mention that she had a penchant for hitting people with chairs!

[Bella]

Dear LMNO,

The only thing I've ever found that works in those circumstances is to become very silent when they say something hypocritical. It works most of the time, and even if it doesn't, at least you aren't participating in the hypocracy.

[Bella]

Bella, I have decided to appoint Hoshiko as Wielder of Eris' Sledgehammer. Was that good or bad?

It was neither good or bad.
It was, in fact,  the only thing to do, Hugh.
