Well, I can't get on the boards in which y'all congregate. I went to "ABC.go.com" and it gives me downloads. But I'm downloading them, but I can't figure out what to do after that!
Probably what I need to do is take it to Best Buy and get them to upgrade it for me, if I don't want to spend money on a new one.
BTW... one thing I'd like to do is go on that book review place y'all hang out and write a brief dissertation of why I cannot stand Mr. Bush any longer... or his family. I'm sure you and a few others would like to read that, even though I haven't really changed any of my views. But I am going to turn in my RNC card [actually I've not been a member of it, that's just a nice way of putting it] and am going to register as an independent. I'm sick of the Republican party. Also, quite frankly, I'm sick of many on the Right who are so panty-waisted, sometimes I can't stand it! I'm tired of being associated with some of the Bush brown-nosers in our society and others who pay lip service to conservatism but are really sell-outs, too timid to take a stand one way or another. I'm tired of so many wimps!
Not to say I am embracing the evil "L-word" but I have moved on beyond the "liberal" label and keeping things to the lowest common denominator. "Liberal this" and "conservative that"-- it all gets old after awhile.
I'm fed up with Bush AND the Republicans! I may sit out this next election, I don't know.
Yes, I know the posts I responded to are old and unlikely to be read. I just figured I'd have fun and write what I could have written if I had been there. That y'all spoke of me so often is quite flattering, actually. I've noticed in my absense on the RB that dear ol' Cap and WEAC, two of my least favorite persons, like to call each other "RO" or "Righton" from time to time. Wow, like, get over it already! The same old rehashed arguments, over and over!
That's one reason I dropped out of sight! I'd gotten sick of politics, and so have pursued other things! If I can figure out how to get on the boards again, I might get back into the swing of things. I wondered if I could e-mail anybody to see if they knew how I could get back in. I put the nefarious Dauggy Daddy in a search engine, found his website, and asked him if he could help me out, but he decided to be his usual drama queen self and make a big production on there, asking the others if he should give me the new addy or not. Well, of course not, dumbass! If I send you an e-mail saying I'm seeing what you are saying, but I can't get in, then obviously I have found it! I can't believe what a drama queen he is!
Recently, I looked up any references to "Righton" on those boards. In one, I found you said you figured out that Cap told Blue Persuasion about my dunce-yet-innocent "nose" comment ["innocent" because I was just playing around and didn't realize you would take offense until Rogue e-mailed me and told me I needed to apologize, that that was over the line]. You said, "I figured out Cap told you about that," because that BP bitch wasn't on the boards when she later, uh, rubbed your nose in it. Well, I wanted to say [can do so now] I think you were right. I think Cap has been careful to fill her in on many juicy details which she has used to her advantage. Once, she did that to me, too, though I don't remember what it was about... likely my illness which I went to great pains to try and erase later.
Anyway... my message to you is... never turn your back on a pseudo-Christian. The pseudo-religious are beaten only by murdering despots [sometimes the two are the same] as the most cruel, vicious people you'll meet.
Rogue may or may not be surprised, but I'd actually like to congratulate her for her contributions on the RB. I used to resent her input, but I do realize that often there are opposing POV, and I've seen her make a few good points now and then. I've thought about e-mailing her, asking if she knows how I can get on. My first thought was that I must have gotten banned, but I think really my browser is too slow. But I can't figure out how to save the new download to my desktop. The page prior to the download page gives directions to double-click on the "Install icon", but I see no such icon. Mine is a Windows '98. When I went on PI, about the same time as you, I had just gotten this PC.
Hmmm... I just accidentally typed "Windows 2000" above. Now that I think of it, the downloads give "2000" as the earliest one. Maybe that's the problem. They don't download on a '98. Yes, maybe I need to either get a new PC [I'd rather not, at least not now] or get this one updated at Best Buy.
Any suggestions you have would be appreciated.
I guess we all get long-winded from time to time, eh? So much catching up to do!
Well, IMHO, Terra has more than one screw loose, too. I find him as bad as righton.
-------------------------
Hey, I guess I'll have to take what I can get, as I peruse in the lonesome darkness of this particular weird night, searching all the different folks who spent so much time talking about me.
Wowee! Graywolf admitted it!
I can't believe it!
I am through with PIAB - since RIGHTON has come, the entire board has gotten too weird (sorry, WEAC).--sassy
I understand. Terra and I really lit his fuse, and I have to admit that I was, for a time, using him as an outlet for my own anger, but I have gotten that under control now.--WEAC/Graywolf
Amazing! He actually admitted that he was using me as a punching bag over his anger elsewhere in his life. Of course, I never received an apology.
Wow! As I recall, that's what I was sayin' at the time.
Righton is a fuckin nut with no compunction about saying the most dreadful things to anybody including you.
Diddo, for Kronq, who I've only engaged with in consevation recently when HE attacked me!
--------------------------------------------
Well, it's nice to know that someone who thought [maybe thinks?] I'm a "fuckin nut" does not stoop to saying dreadful things about other folks.
BTW... it's "ditto".
Line of the year, according to me, Meme. Library Cop, remarking to a long-winded post from you to Spall that you thought that he was long-winded and boring.
Man, I see you guys were so obsessed with me once upon a time. Guilt'll do that to ya!
So how is married life, Sassy?
I'm sure I'll still find her. Just have to wait and see. I still have half a decade to reach your (old) age.
Well... I can finally answer!
I found a "free trial" in my mail box, after all this time!
Not that it will make a difference!
After all, he did call me a thief...
===================================
I ASKED if you were a thief, didn't CALL you a thief.
I just hate it when people change my words around.
Gee RO, I see you're getting better at this. Heck, I bet there's a whole tenth of a degree distinction between what you said and the implication behind it.
So tell me... and remember I'm just asking here... but:
Are you a serial rapist, Righton?
Are you a murderer, Righton?
Are you insane and on the verge of going over the edge and killing yourself, Righton?
Please bear in mind that these are merely innocent questions from someone who honestly just wants to know the answers. No untoward implication is intended here and I will, of course, be justifiably and righteously indignant if you dare take offense at these perfectly innocuous questions.
yeesh!
No, no, and no.
See, I didn't take offense! The questions were not asked with any sincerity that I was either of those things. My question was based on what you yourself said of your own actions, that you are in the process of stealing something. Your response of indignancy indicates that my question was unnerving to you, and thus your hostile response... because you are a thief!
You sure you want to agree with Righton on this one? After all, he did call me a thief... and I'm not entirely sure how you can support that position without offense.
--------------------------------------------------------
Facts, Neuro. Keep 'em straight.
I ASKED if you were a thief, didn't CALL you a thief.
I just hate it when people change my words around.
Interesting remark about the blind squirrel, Graywolf. Yes, even YOU can find truth once in a while....
Again, who is the victim here? Who is being wronged?
------------------------------------------------------------
Victimless crime, Spall, is still crime. Dishonesty is NOT a good thing.
I actually think Graywolf has done a good job in this thread, and I agree with him.
'S'not the end of the world.
Hey, Judy! I'm back! Anybody miss me?
"So, where you off to RO?
And are you feeling better? Be careful driving. The way people drive these days...they must have lowered the test to allow anyone who doesn't try to drive on the sidewalk and mow the pedi's down a DL."
I don't recall what the "feeling better" refers to. I went to CA just for the heck of it (but I didn't see CaliGrrrl anywhere). I saw Disneyland and Six Flags, plus a little in-between. The reason is, one day I plan to live out there (though I hope they change their politics considerably by then) but by that time I felt I'd be too old to enjoy some of this stuff, so I figured I'd go out there, just for the fun of it. So I flew, and I got a ticket from United on-line for $539 -- not bad from Knoxville to LA and back, with only one stopover in Chicago. It was exciting, but at one point I did rent a car and some hateful cop pulled me over for going, like, ten miles over the speed limit on Interstate 5. I was trying to get back to return the rental car in time to get the shuttle to the airport and not miss my flight. Thankfully, I get there on time. I left the Disney area at Anaheim on Thursday afternoon, and traffic was so bad on the interstate that I came to a complete stop three times. But when I returned (and got the ticket) it was Saturday morning, so I had no problem. The cop wasn't hateful himself, just getting a damn ticket was. He claimed I passed him and said, "Didn't you see me?" I wanted very badly to say, "Well, not all of us are on the lookout for ticket-happy cops" but of course didn't. I did say that I was sorry to come to this state out of frustration. The previous day I left Six Flags and lost my car! I found it eventually, but Augh! But hey, it was fun overall. My only regret was that I was by myself. But the older I get, the more set in my ways I get. I sometimes wonder about looking for Miss Right, but then I am so set in my ways, I don't know if I can cope. And this illness still kicks my rear here 'n there, but I seem to be coping okay. I'm not really interested in sex much anymore (I know you've been waiting to hear about that), so I don't see a big reason to go looking. It would be someone to travel with, yes. I've always wanted children, but since schizophrenia is an inherited illness, it's probably good I've never had any. I can still give my love to my kitties, and my little Sugar is now pregnant. I can't wait; she is such a sweet little thing.
Hey, I'll turn 40 in five days!
I just went to Atlanta again, to do Stone Mtn., which I missed last year, because now I get a discount with my "Dollywood" season pass. I went to PittyPat's Porch again (I just can't get enough of that Southern cooking). And hey!, you weren't there again!
"Sorry to disappoint you my ever-so-hateful little friend but the answer is no."
Nyah, nyah, I'm bigger than you!
Ever-so-hateful? That's a first!
Moi? Hateful? Why, whatever do you MEAN?
Excuse me, Neuro, but did you type the following or did somebody else?:
There's only one advantage to cable, stealing analog video channels. Most providers are too lazy (and cheap) to add a filter so you can just split the cable and pop the coax into the back of your set and (viola!) you've got cable (or as many channels as your tuner will lock).
Hell, if it wasn't for the fact that I was stealing cable I wouldn't have put up with AT&T for nearly as long as I did.
----------------------------------------------------------
Pardon me, but I thought only thieves stole things, and you DID claim here that you are "stealing analog video/cable" didn't you?
It's not up to me to choose your words for you.
But have a good life, Neuro. Tonight is my last night on-line, at least for a while.
Hey, Judy, what's with the name-calling?
Little twerp? Moi?
"What the hell are ya doing paying $50 bucks a month for flipping internet cable services? Go to K Mart and get a cd from them. It's $10 a month. So is Juno and Net Zero I think. The KMart one I know about from Gene and he says the service is excellent."
How does the K-Mart disc work? I mean, does it use the phone line or what?
What about Juno or Net Zero? How do I get to them?
"Aggravating us is one of your small joys in life. And...well...sigh...I guess maybe...I might kind of miss you. If a person can actually MISS a pain in the ass that is."
Yeah, not letting libbies get away with their crap IS rather painful, isn't it?
Yes, there are fewer joys than making libbies squirm! Check out the religion board sometime (I just posted the addy at the Iraq board). You could drop by my board sometime, but sadly, PP has pretty much taken over with his same-ol' krap. But oh well.
The sounds hard to do, Neuro. I mean, my comp. is upstairs, but my big-screen TV is downstairs. But I already have a line coming up.
So you're a thief, eh?
**OOPS!!**
I added my name as "person mark". Was that a mistake? What does that mean?
So if this is Spall's place too, how come he doesn't hang out here?
But for that matter, looks like nobody else does either. I don't see what the big deal was to keep my from knowing about it. But maybe y'all needed a place to say to each other, "Wow, Righton really put a whoopin' on my ass today" w/o my actually seeing it and getting the big head. After all, it is important to keep me in my place, no?
Not that y'all are "totally honest enough" to actually put it in those terms, of course!
Now, cappy, you are supposed to put it in the right way, so I can just click on it.
I will look it up the next time I am in the mood. I've heard some negative things about it, and rather than ask you bazillions of questions (you are welcome) I figured I'd go take a look-see for myself.
Righton said he was leaving and I check in here and there is this presumptious imposter posting. He had the affrontery to even call me Judy. Punish him Memers for using my dear old RO's handle. The very idea!
-------------------------------------------------
*AHEM*
I said "sometime in April". It is not yet April. But I called my service tonight to see what date I am good for, but I couldn't get the answer I was seeking, so I will have to wait until Monday to call the billing office. I am tired of paying $50 per month for the limited time I put into on-line services lately, so I want to call it quits, at least for a while. And though on-line service is annoying, I likely will go with that in the future, because it is much cheaper. Also, cable seems to be not-as-fast as it used to be, and I was warned this might happen with more and more subscribers joining.
>>>>>Heck, there are times that you're even cute!
------------------------------------------
Like now, Grandma? <G>
My Dearest (Not Entirely Honest Skeppy),
Now, now, Righton, don't get in a tizzy. It's perfectly all right if you want to consider yourself a conservative. I just happen to think that you're EXTREMELY judgmental, EXTREMELY stubborn, EXTREMELY sensitive, and at times EXTREMELY annoying. Therefore, I said that you may be an extremist. I could be as off base in this belief as you are in your belief that I am not an "entirely honest individual."
Well, even I am not "entirely" honest. That would be one way of looking at it. I don't think anybody is "entirely honest". But let me comment on the four extremes you mentioned. To wit:
Well, I can go along with "judgmental". The only problem is, "judgmental" is an accusation one cannot make w/o being "judgmental" themselves, you see? In order for you to accuse me of being judgmental, you have to BE judgmental, in order to actually say the words.
Extremely stubborn? Who on this board (or any board) does that NOT apply to? Aren't we all stubborn in the extreme? What position have you changed since being on the boards, skeppy?
I think Meme is extremely stubborn, as in: providing me with an official govt link which shows that "personnel" was the biggest source of military spending under the Reagan presidency, even though she earlier claimed it was "defense". When I pointed it out to her, she suddenly ended her share of the conversation. Every time I have mentioned it since, she keeps ignoring it. Now THAT is a case of stubborness in the extreme. Conversely, no one has demonstrated me -- with proof positive from any site -- to ignore facts because they don't fit in with my agenda.
Forgive my extreme sensitivity when people attack my personal life and say I'm better off dead and taunt me and call me names. I will endeavor to not take it so personally in the future. Were you to be treated a tenth as badly as I have been on these boards, you'd be seen as pretty damn sensitive yourself.
Oh, I am definitely annoying, I'll grant you that. I would rank myself as one of the single most (but not the most) annoying posters. There is a very good reason for that, but I doubt very seriously you are going to share just what that reason is. Modesty prevents me from saying it.
How can anyone NOT consider me a conservative? I reek from conservatism (certainly not that there's anything wrong with THAT!).
Hey cap....
Could you give me that Atkins diet web address again? I didn't look it up before they took away the WLS board.
Not only are you silly and goofy, Mommy......
You're stupid as well. Go play in traffic.
One who is "ignoring" me. Can't you see what a joke you are here?
LOL, RO. You have been planning on leaving for about 2 years now. Have you picked out your new handle that you will use when you return? I can almost read the posts now "Who is this righton? Why did everyone not like him?"
-----------------------------------------------------------
Remember that, do you? I really loved it.
Salt&Pepper: So who was this Righton person?
Smart&Sassy: He was this hateful...extremist...
S&P: You sound bitter.
S&S: Hell, no, I'm not bitter.
S&P: People who begin their sentences with "hell" usually are bitter people.
I personally loved that conversation. How embarrassed you must have felt to later learn that was me.
No, I plan to take myself off line for a little while anyway. I'm sick of paying so much for cable, and I plan to do some traveling, now that it's getting warm again. Wait and see.
Way to go Righton!
------------------------------------------------------\Thank you, Judy.
I just wanted to see your words in the title.
>>I don't consider you to be a conservative. You might be an extremist, however<<
An extremist what, Skeppy?
Why the heck would you not consider me a conservative? I believe in equal tax rates for all citizens, regardless of income. I believe all in our society should be protected by law (life and liberty). I support capital punishment for people who take others' lives. I support a strong military, strong defense, fiscal discipline, term limits for congressmen, vouchers for parents to send their children to the school of their choice (although my first goal would be to phase out public education entirely and leave it to the private sector. Individual parents ought to pay for their own children's education.) I do not support big govt giveaways or corporate welfare. I am opposed to the marriage penalty and double taxation as in dividends and the "death tax" and capital gains. I am opposed to gun control as it a.) violates the Second Amendment and b.) does not work. I do not believe meat is murder, and I support the right of citizens to decide for themselves whether or not to spay or neuter their pets and whether or not to wear their automobiles' seat constraints.
So which of these is antithetical to conservatism? Which of these makes me an "extremist"? To me, they are all common sense and have more to do with the mainstream than a lot of other things people say, like calling the president "Dumbya" which is disrespectful and sounds extremist, as well as bitter. Oh yes, and I also support free trade. I do not think we should be the world's policeman; however, I do believe we should be involved in world affairs to a limited degree and not be isolationists. I support military borders to keep illegals out (I used not to, but I have since changed my position on that). I do not think illegals should have access to the benefits of American life, as many now do. The key word there is "illegal". I support tighter regulation of emigrants here. I am more in favor of the free market approach to things like science and medicine and am wary of politicians wanting tax dollars for these things, as well as various subsidies for certain professions. For instance, I think rich, Hollywood celebrities should fund "the arts" rather than taxpayers, who have no choice in the matter.
So any time you wanna tell me how any of this fits in with extremism, honey (I know how you like it when I call you that), you just go right ahead.
>>you definitely need to read more books, now that you're finished writing your own. <<
I plan to, such as Ann Coulter's "Slander" and Jonah Goldberg's "Bias in the American Media."
I finished writing two books. I have six more I want to write. Hopefully, I will get them published one day. I am still working on that.
>>One time you told me to address no further comments to you, and I guess we should keep it like that. <<
Wanna get out of your "extremist" accusation, do you?
I said that once, after a particular nasty post by yourself in regard to me. If you want to maintain a grudge from that, you have that prerogative. But we have actually communicated a tiny bit since then, so I'm surprised to see you bring it up. (Except for the fact that you are trying to get out of your "extremist" accusation, and I do know that you are not an entirely honest individual.)
>>Good luck in the future.<<
Thanks. I should be around for a little while ITM.
I'm surprised to see you posting here, Righton. Last I heard you weren't going to post where you weren't wanted as you were never actually invited here, but only gained access from the link that Lunatits provided on the old PI board.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"Lunatits." Funny. You should be a comedienne, Meme.
<Oh, what a sexist noun!>
Well, it's a man's prerogative to change his mind. Besides, I felt lonely. Although no one was on, I felt like I wanted to leave a message, and some of you aren't as hostile to me as you like to let on.
And like I said, I plan to leave the web for the duration probably starting early next month. I called Comcast once about whenever I want to cancel and I was told that when I cancel it is over. That very day my service will be discontinued. I will, however, be charged until the next date which makes it exactly (?) months when I first signed up. So whatever date they say, I plan to call around that time and cancel.
>>So, how's about it people? You okay with Righton being here?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Well, heck! Who's gonna disagree with anything on here any other way?
Personally, I think you're as full of crap as the President. No one that I know glows about Saddam Hussein. That he is an evil man is indisputable. That he poses a threat to the United States of America is.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
How is that disputable?
You glow in that you unwaveringly criticize and condemn our president for taking action against him.
>>You and your President are shortsighted, arrogant and will plunge us into a national nightmare of unprecendented porportions. If Bush continues on this course in ten years, you won't find a flaming Republican that will admit they voted for the retard.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Much like many today are ashamed to admit they voted for Clinton previously?
How am I arrogant and shortsighted? How is he?
>>The Pharoahs fell. The Caesars fell. The Czars fell. Will Bush II be our downfall? We will see.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
A bit mellowdramatic, isn't that?
>>. I think history will validate my position on this coming fiasco....we will then see who history points to as a traitor!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
And if we find success in this endeavor?
Will you be prepared to admit you were wrong and the president was/is right?
Even now, one of the masterminds behind 9/11 has been found. For many months, the administration has been criticized for not finding any of those responsible. Now a few have been found, and I don't hear those naysayers crediting the administration with that.
Oops. Pardon me for using the language of those filthy French.
C'est ne pa.
<Durnit!>
Abortion is not murder. The right of women to determine their own reproductive destinies shall not be infringed. Read it and weep, you little creep.
--------------------------------------------------
Slaughtering an innocent human being is indeed murder. And they already have "the determination of their reproductive destinies". It's called keeping your legs crossed.
I just figured I'd answer the only two posts made to me since I originally joined -- thanks to you, Quasi.
And now, adieu.
And, oh yeah...SUPPORT A WOMAN'S RIGHT TO CHOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meme
___________________________________________________________
And oh yeah...it depends upon what that choice is.
If it is to harm another, then sorry, no can do.
Hopefully, GW will not blow us all up while I'm busy. (I just hate when that happens! What I'm really hoping for is somebody to smack the crap out of him and straighten his stupid ass up.
*********************************************************'
You libbies are so weird! You speak ill of our president and positively glow about Saddam Hussein. Personally, I think yer a bunch of traitors!
Here it is, Quasi, Graywof, Coco, anybody else:
Here are the originals, from the days preceding and including the bans of our fine characters from the place I call "Red China". Enjoy. http://groups.msn.com/Anopenforum/general.msnw
If anyone wants to join and start posting, feel free. You don't need to be "approved" just sign up and post. But if not, that's fine too.
Quasi and RIghton's responses to the warning and the deletion of the messages was to go on an ever escalating barrage of nasty messages and insults aimed at the board.
============================================================
Entirely untrue. And guess what! I saved the originals. I will post them on my board at my next convenienece.
"Barrage of nasty messages adn insults aimed at the board" indeed!
The thing I stated right before my ban (my last post) was that Neuro, cap, and GW have said far too many hurtful things to me to be the ones to "discipline" me, as GW kept telling Quasi they were doing. I will re-post the original on my board and provide the link. Then all (who wish to) can see for themselves.
At least I think I saved that one.
I felt that WMW, BEZ, MildlyDisturbed and a couple of others brought new life to PI, and not just because I share their political views.
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Ah, I must be one of the others.
I understand, since you do not usually share my political views. <G>
Uh oh! Only 13 left!
BTW, please forgive me, people, for cluttering your board like this. I just feel like having someone to talk to, if only for the moment.
I wonder if Mommy will ignore all these.
Thanks for posting over there, all you guys. I couldn't last long without Jade's humor, Sassy's insights, Mom's dedication, and Rogue's rogueness.
-----------------------------------------------
How 'bout Righton's, um, rightness?
Rogue, My original reply to you on that other board was, "LOL. Just try it, you potty-mouthed, filter-bypassing baby-butcher,"
_______________________________________
Sounds good to me. You been hanging out with me lately or somepin', Skep?
Capamo did a super job of passing the link along. I noticed on PIA (where I'm not a member of Graywolf's board) that USMC was asking where everybody is posting now. He's a conservative, but the problem is that he's often a NASTY conservative, and I hope he won't get the link. I suppose he will, though, and then Amfortas will show up, too. It's difficult to explain how I feel about posters like Amfort and sicilian, and USMC too. It's not just that I disagree with them, it's that the level of discourse seems to sink to low levels when they're around. I don't feel that way about most conservatives.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++=
How do you feel about this conservative, Skeppy?
Capamo didn't do a super job of passing the link along to ME!! Go figure!
Case in point: I came upon a spot where GW says he's removed the ban from RightOn, but 'refuses to invite him'. A typically smarmy, simpering kind of thing to do and say, since to remove a ban WITHOUT letting the victim of the ban know it is morally tantamount to just continuing the ban, but trying to escape the moral consequences of being a hypocrite about it.
--------------------------------------------------------
Hilarious, Quasi. Truce?
Well, anyway, I'm cancelling my on-line service within the next month, as I'm planning trips and won't want to continue to devote 'bout $50 per month to keep on and on.
I guess you know if you've ever checked there that PP was trying to belittle you on there to GW. Also, I am a registered member of Red China and have been for several months now. I just don't feel like posting. The one thing they (really, he, and when you put the screws to him on my board, he split) did was to silence free speech on their board. Aside from Mac and Beezly, who aren't there anymore, there are hardly no dissenting voices. Pretty much everyone agrees with everyone else on most things, which is death to any board. But cappy and GW have proven before that they are too thick-headed to admit to even the slightest of errors. I used to tell them they should abandon their silly "delete after 60 days" rule (actually, it was thirty but I got them to extend it), because sometimes people are gone a little over 60 days. Then about a week after they banned us, I noticed cappy erased a post pat34lee left for Spall, who came back a week later and could have answered it. But would either of them even then admit it was a mistake (the "delete" rule)? Nope, of course not. And as I tried to point out to them, the rule serves no purpose, because Microsoft already creates new pages and further making posts do not even make a dent in your storage space, even if you type hundreds of messages.
But oh well. I'd like to point out that this board doesn't receive a whole lot of action, mostly IMO because there aren't enough dissenting voices. But I digress.
Anyway, I love it when we're on the same side as I feel you are good with words and make a most difficult adversary (though not with me, of course).
Incidentally, I did not get banned by the PI board either, possibly because I left my curser in the next post I wanted to respond to, and went to bed, turning off my monitor but leaving my PC on in that place. Then when I came back the next day, I could not post. But I went to another of WLS's boards and posted what I had attempted to paste, and tried to continue to conversation. I got about three or four posts up and left and came back. Then they froze that board, and THEN I was banned. I guess they didn't like me carrying it further.
Every public board must have one resident loon - it seems to be an unwritten law. If we could choose between Amfort, Gad, u, or Righton, I'd pick Righton!

Oh, you would, would you?
And what precisely makes me a "loon"?
Let's talk about Roe vs. Wade....
Even if Righton somehow stumbled on to this board, it's closed and for members only.<<
Oh yeah?
