Hi Susan,
Thanks for your comments. The christian talking heads want you to forget the old testament too - they don't live it, and don't want its contents known. Their followers are blissfully unaware.
Thanks for the add, Susan. I didn't know you were a librarian. Librarians are up there on my list of people to respect the most. I'm a total library whore. I'm there at least 3-4 times a week.
Thank you for joining LINGUAPHILES & SESQUIPEDALIANISTS. I look forward to your contributions. Be sure to select “follow” on the right hand side of the group page so that you are automatically notified of new posts.
You are correct, it is automatic, in most cases. I say to do that because of some bugs in the Ning programming system. There have been some groups I joined that would not notify me, even when I selected "follow", and there have been some that I selected "stop following" and left the group, and still I get notified. Also, on some of the groups I started, I was not getting notified of new discussions. I think we got it worked out now, but I always tell people to select "follow" just in case. :)
I'm not much for sports, but I have lived numerous different places in the US and the Packers fans are the most loyal fans I have ever seen here. They rival some of the UK football fans. I had a blast being in a bar in Milwaukee rooting for the Packers with a packed house!
Truly no need to apologise about keeping quiet when JSH was on a rampage. It was not worth saying anything. She was like a high speed train wreck - best to get out of the way before you are run over. I've told felch the same thing. One must choose their battles and she was not worth the energy.
Susan, you were not pushy! You were persistent until I finally got it. Thank you ever so much. I have learned more on this site than I ever wanted to know.
Hi Susan
Thanks for the friend invite. I'm aware that I sometimes take a more extreme view than you do on some issues, but I've always felt we're essentially coming from the same place.
Thanks, Susan - I know you clearly understand the humour, and when I talk about the majority of American women not getting it, I'm not referring to you.
I'll try to get that photo of me in Packer gear scanned, and I'll send it to you, or even better, I'll put it up on NN.
I felt bad that you were attacked for making a comment about the Jewish picture of ash. I hope you want to stay on this site despite the heat you have been given. You seem like such a nice lady.
Re: Tbyte...and the Childless discussions. I'm popping into the discussions just to read what's been posted, and I did leave a comment in another thread today....one that he hasn't invaded yet.
He's a troll, and those types thrive on attention, even if it's negative. So the only thing I can do is ignore him. I think we should ALL ignore him, and try to carry on posting our comments as though he doesn't exist.
Also, I think I left a note in Ailurophiles that I was going to be tied up for a few days while I worked on The Pet Press. I finished early yesterday AM, but I'm TIRED, and half blind from looking at this monitor for hours at a time. Proofing is the hardest. But I love it!
Anyroad, I'll be back, I still have quite a bit to say about why I never wanted children.
I learned the hard way on another Atheist forum that there's nothing that can be done about trolls, unless the moderator is able and willing to block them from posting. We had fundies Copying and Pasting the same buybull verses over and over, and all the moderator did was tell us to "play nicely, now, children." I cancelled my membership. I don't have the patience anymore to deal with twits.
I'm going to be 72 (AAARGH!) in a few weeks, and I feel I've earned the right to be crabby and bitchy when I want to. Ya think?
Because of our toy talk, I looked at your page (to see how old you are), and I noticed that you like DWTS. Zombie jesus, I am having so much more fun watching it this season. How can anyone resist Ricki Lake, Nancy Grace, Chaz, and Carson?! And the burn guy...oh, the burn guy. That show and Glee are the highlights of my tv watching each week.
Nope. Not going home. I attribute it to the Cher bump that he got when she tweeted that she would be in the audience if he made it on another week. But, you are correct. He should have gone home. Still, go Chaz, even though your dancing sucks. I'm so glad Carson is still on!

I’ve already started two discussions to get us started: Talking Right: How Conservatives Turned Liberalism into a Tax-Raisi... and How many words are there in the English language?
