Hi Alita...and welcome to the world of BLOATED BLOGS - it's a rather strange phenonema...and I think that most of us don't have a clue as to why it happens...but here is the proof!

I think you original question was pure and simple...but ESL'ers are looking for a place to vent their frustrations - and they found one here!

Now, to avoid this happening in the future...simple ask for a private reply!

So simple...but where are the moderators? Have thay determined that the exercise of free speech is more important than content? At least they let us edit our own - maybe it would be benefical to allow us to edit (out) others?

Yes...No...Maybe so?

Something about Dave's penchant for freedom of speech is probably keeping this thread open, barring threats of legal action.

I think if we just resist posting in this thread, we can let is slide on down the list, ever so slowly into its own sunset, off to the graveyard of old, tired threads that nobody cares about anymore.

But it's 'Guys' like you that keep them alive!



Idea Guy, I just opened a copy of The Smithsonian and found this ad near the back:

AUTHORS WANTED

Maybe you aren't doing yourself justice in your present position...

Aw, thank you. I appreciate the interest and the help.

But I am wary of your tricks. I know you are only just trying to get me into another job so I'll stop posting on this forum, leaving you to reign.

Twisted Evil

All in good fun

Ah, the fascist religious fanatic strikes again against free speech:

"At least they let us edit our own - maybe it would be benefical to allow us to edit (out) others?"

Continue to try to shout down your critics, and keep your fascist hands--and scissors--to yourself.

Are you losing your edge? It seems that you had numerous - and much more serious - accusations which you needed to respond to. And I'm being as serious as I can be...


Rolling Eyes (Guy taught me how to use this one...)


Most seriously...your language IS truly nothing short of 'foul' - and I don't even think you realize it...yet! I'm just glad they don't allow cursing on this site...I think we'd all learn loads from you!

I see. Foul language, but not cursing. I do not profane the name of god every post on this thread--but you manage to do so in nearly everything you write. You make no sense whatsoever. It's time for your medication.

This thread is quite reminiscent of the little dialogues between each round of Mike Tyson's Punch-Out for the original (8 bit) Nintendo. Here are some choice morsels:
Piston Honda - "I'll give you a TKO from Tokyo!"
Bald Bull - "Doc can't help you now. Will you beg me for help?"
Soda Popinski - "I can't drive, so I'm gonna walk all over you!"
Super Macho Man - "I don't smoke... But tonight I'm gonna smoke you!"

My favorite was King Hippo.

Now there's a memory! I loved that game.

Thanks for the comedic relief M@tt. Back to the finer points of tearing up each other's posts, or bloated blogs?

Are you alluding to me being some type of 'Edward Sissorhands' - because if you are...in the end his truly good intentions were clearly exhibited...back to my artwork...

I have it on good authority that Moonraven is an ambitious White male cultural attache in the American embassy in Bogota. He is a Texan known for his indiscretions with the local women.
