You know we can keep this going and you can look like a bible nut. I do not like my cats burnt.
I like them medium rare.
I didn't do it for the rec's...just wanted to get Thera's attention...what with all the laughing while cats burn, we, make that YOU, needed an intervention! :-)
That's one of the problems with not having a system where we can contact each other!
Anyway, your post turned out to be a fun thread, no?
Cat Lovers Unite!! Burn the Dickday Dude at the stake!!!!!
Heh heh....
But just to medium rare!
"That's one of the problems with not having a system where we can contact each other!"
SI - Just a note, If you 'follow' someone, such as TheraP, your dashboard will show you what they are commenting on in, (relatively), real time, and you can insert a reply to that persons latest comment with whatever you want to tell them. This works especially well if that person is 'following' you as they will see your reply to their comment in their dashboard.
That's assuming your dashboard works. Mine has been blank for weeks now.
Have you let Al, know? He's pretty good at jumping in and getting things fixed.
How do you contact Al? My comments work, but there a couple of other bugs in my dashboard.
You know, I had his direct e-mail at one time, but I can't find it. The general e-mail address is talk@talkingpointsmemo.com You might try sending it there w/ "message for Al" in the subject and see if he gets it...seems like his address might have been as simple as al@talkingpointsmemo.com You might try it and see if you get a "can't deliver" message.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
Thanks SI!
Debbie/Hillary--I laugh at your picture too. Look, you have all these people following you. You have not put anybody down to follow.
Go to Stilli's blog. Under the beautiful flag it says FOLLOW ME. Click follow me.
Now everytime Stilli comments or posts, you will see it after you hit your dashboard. Do the same thing for every blog or writer you like.
If you just stick with Stilli, you may become as confused as me.
Is that a slam, crotchety old man? :-)
How do I know if people are following me? I'm totally lost ever since they did the "upgrade."
Debbie: look at your pretty senatorial picture. On your own blog. To the right it says following and followers. Followers definitely like your writing and your soul. Following has nothing. Just for fun click the number after followers and shows you who is following you. Now, pick a blog and look at the comments and click the name, the red name and you will end up at that person's blog. under the picture is says follow me. Press follow.
Magically it will appear as a number. If I do not see some numbers in your blog, I am going to do a blog on you. I know you like writers here because I read your stuff.
Duh...the "crotch" (how's that for a nickname?)is correct...if you aren't following anyone, your dashboard won't work. It is for monitoring the posts, comments, and recommends of the people you follow. Ergo, no follow, no info to follow. To monitor your own posts,comments, and recommends you go to "your blog."
Sorry, I assumed you knew that and it still wasn't working.
Just so you know, I wear a size 18 shoe.
Hmmm, big feet, big...why is it everytime I get around you people I head straight for the gutter?
Look I just walk softly and carry big shoes. And you started this with crotch. And I am not going to stand for being called crotch. At least without some recognition.
We may need Mom, again...between Crotch and Dick you may have some issues that need to be addressed...rotflmbo. How bad is to just absolutely crack yourself up? I think I'm in a mood today...
"Whaddaya, sum kinda' clown?" he asked, taking the cigar from his mouth to spit tobacco juice into the sawdust at Dickday's feet. Dickday realized that the tent and three ring circus within which he stood; the red, bulbous nose; the size 18 stacy adamses; and the flaming red hair all afloat like cottom candy should have presented an unimpeachable clue. And yet, the old man asked again.
"Hey, Buddy! Ya' dindna' hear me? You some kinda' idget or sumpin, or is ya just a clown?"
"Buy yourself a ticket at the window first" Dickday replied " And then we'll talk."
Hey, SJ! Welcome to the circus! I think we all have too much time on ours hands today!
Hi, SI!
I think something's in the air... and we're all just getting a contact high, mebbe?
Thanks, Miguel...hadn't come up with any benefit to "following" but I guess that's it, huh?
Ok.... well, a day late... a spanking short...
Hmmmmm.....
Here's what I used to do with kids when they'd tattle. When I was teaching:
Let's suppose Harry tattled on Bill. I'd say to Harry, "Ok, go get Bill."
Harry would take off and bring Bill back with a triumphant smile.
I'd say, "Ok, Harry, now you tell Bill what you told me."
After Harry spoke, I'd say: "Ok, Bill, now you talk to Harry."
I'd make them talk to each other. And guess what? Nearly always they found they could discuss and work things out.
That mostly took care of the tattling.
So, now, I think we can all just stand back and let stillidealistic and dickday converse - till all is well.
Favorite Quotes "The older I get, the more I feel like me."
"Life is not meant to be a gentle journey to the grave arriving in pristine condition, but rather a wild rollercoaster of a trip, sliding in sideways, a mocha in one hand and a bar of chocolate in the other, completely used up and screaming whoooeeee! What a ride!"
I didn't see this.
