Trifioso

okay, I fixed the poem. largely by getting rid of contractions, and taking out apostrophes. This will please those who hate those little squiggles (and I count myself in that number) but horrify those who are usually strict with apostrophe use (again --- me!)
2:23 am
jillibus

much better, but you could still use straight apostrophes if they're in the original
2:23 am
jillibus

night again flosey -- have a lovely day tomorrow

Sally-catlover

4:32 am
Sally-catlover

FM, we have recently paid for anonymous call rejection, and hardly ever get a cold call now. Worth the money
4:33 am
FMitch

There was a bill product on Dragons Den recently which I really hope they will launch. Screens calls and aslo give the option to reject calls and tell the caller that their call will no longer be accpeted.
4:34 am

How is Ata I havent seen her in ages either
6:45 am
Haz1558

She's still deported to the States. Negotiations are under way to get her back in again.
6:46 am

Has she been in contact at all? How much ransom do you think they want this time?
6:46 am
LynnNate08

That's the next stage, caitlyn.
6:52 am
jacq

poor ata! what really happened?
6:53 am
Haz1558

I've always thought aversion therapy should be tried. Surely if she saw and heard him singing it would help?
6:53 am
Haz1558

What really happened? You mean you have doubts about our story, jacq?
6:53 am
jacq

6:53 am
Haz1558

I'm shocked.

6:54 am
caitlyn

jac havent you heard about the way she stalks him?
6:54 am
jacq

she always seemed too sane to have issues, well other than being addicted to abbble
6:54 am

evergreen at first glance appears to be a wonderful place to learn, stid
2:35 pm
stidmama

It is, for the right people, BR. Like any school, there are some who do better elsewhere. The lack of formal structure in some classes makes it difficult for unmotivated and immature students to stay on track. They end up trying to do too much at the very end, and don't succeed.
2:36 pm
Wolvie

fireworks
2:36 pm
BabbleRabble

the unmotivated will likely not do well anywhere
2:36 pm
stidmama

For older, motivated students, the lack of structure allows us to tailor the classes to our interests and needs; for example I tend to add either ethnobotanical or ethnomusicology studies to nearly every course.

A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses. She started her class by saying, 'Everyone who thinks they're stupid, stand up!' After a few seconds, Little Johnny stood up. The teacher said, 'Do you think you're stupid, Little Johnny?' 'No, ma'am, but I hate to see you standing there all by yourself!'

Young bunnies are the worst for chewing holes in stuff.

I dated a chef for 2 years and my daughter has also dated a couple of chefs. None of them seem to enjoy cooking at home. If you want to find a chef who does it for a job but is frustrated by the lack of rein it gives him, try a soldier.

Most straight men who cook like to 'keep it simple'. Gay men who cook often make the most divine concoctions. I'm hoping the 'gay' wedding reception I'm going to this weekend, has been catered by the guys who are entering into a civil partnership, 'cos the last time they did a party I got most of the fantastic whole cooked salmon with delicate salads etc., whilst the rest of the party tucked into the curry they'd also made.

my mom was an awesome cook. I learned from her, don't measure much and go a lot by taste and smell.
8:38 pm
Jacula

The family all get nervous when I experiment, but what the heck? You can't learn if you don't try things out.
8:38 pm
rururocks

I learned from my grandmother .. who was a terrific cook.
8:38 pm
Jacula

lbd - I'd go along with that.
8:38 pm
Dorens

same here dawg, and my mom says I'm better than her.. and I say my daughter is better than me... if you know good food and know what you like and choose recipes with great ingredients, you can't go wrong
8:38 pm

I was his first lov and he took my rejection badly, but he got over it. (I know that because my best friend was his best friend's g/f and they broke up and then me and her ex wrote to each other. There was no internet in those days.)
8:47 pm
jillibus

Is that a note of sarcasm about Julia, babrab?
8:47 pm
BabbleRabble

Long before she was famous for her kitchen concoctions, Child teamed up with male spies to create shark repellent for the OSS. She “literally cooked up a shark repellent,” Linda McCarthy, curator of an exhibit on female spies, told NPR.
