[Dancer]

what's wrong? :hug:
:redface: I was looking for help with my Chem homework.

Now we are doing breaking bonds and the math behind London Dispersion forces, hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds and (yeah, good luck with that) covalent bonds...we were given heats and such and I was going, "I don't even remember her TALKING about some of this"...

A lot of it had to do with surface tension of water and stuff... pressure, boiling point at room temp...that stuff.

[texan_rep]

ohhhhhh....

did you finish?

[Dancer]

ohhhhhh....

did you finish?No, it was the last homework. I had to turn it in at 10AM on the nose. That would be 11 am central ;)

[texan_rep]

oops...

[texan_rep]

No, it was the last homework. I had to turn it in at 10AM on the nose. That would be 11 am central ;)

ummmmmm....wouldn't that be 9AM central?

[Wireline]

Cheating on homework? On a public forum? From Tex?

I am shocked - SHOCKED I tell you.

[texan_rep]

She is not cheating...she requests help and I give it. I don't do her work for her.

[texan_rep]

oh...morning...

Didn't mean that to sound snippy, but I have teachers in my direct AND extended family, on BOTH mine and my wife's side...and if I could make a living at it, I'd love to be an engineering professor...teaching is something I both enjoy and have some skill in...

[melinda]

She is not cheating...she requests help and I give it. I don't do her work for her.

btw: when asked someone (I don't know who) replied that their favorite Bible verse was "and it came to pass...". This was their favorite Bible verse??? Yes, the person stated. I always have to remind myself, it came to pass, it did not come to stay. ;)

Never argue with idiots. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

[Wireline]

Never argue with idiots. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

One cannot be a hermit, though....anytime I step out the door or log onto this thing you call the internets, I encounter idiots, minions, moron, imbicils, ax grinders, haters, personality retards, etc...

At some point in reality, you HAVE to interact with idiots, and they will try and argue with you, just because they think they have some sort of demonic obligation to start some serious ****....

I think it wise to remember that Christ himself opened a whole case of whoopass on those who were using a temple as a trading post.....in my interpretation, that makes it OK to 'lose it' once in a while, as long as the intent is pure....

That said, arguing with assbags on the internet is really nothing more than a total waste of time, bandwidth, energy, and brain cells (they are limited, ya know...not expendable, either)

[Wireline]

making jokes and being a general nuisance to society with bad puns is still acceptable, though...

Hey! Did you you hear the one......? :mrgreen:

Oh, I never said never INTERACT with idiots...:whistle:

DRAW!

I can't draw worth a damn. My youngest is a hell of an artist, though...

[melinda]

I can draw, but I'm not a hell of an artist....just a bit of one.

[Wireline]

I can't draw worth a damn. My youngest is a hell of an artist, though...

Me neither...I can't draw fer squat....

I can draw a conclusion, draw blood, draw a bath, overdraw my checking account...but give me a visual artist medium, and it looks like someone threw up on the paper....

That's usually because someone saw what I drew, and did.

we used to play "Pictionary" quite often, and one of my friends' husband yelled at her, he said, "everytime you draw something, I always want to guess '*******' because all you can draw is a circle!!" :))

[Wireline]

Hmmm....it might help if she scribbled some hair on that...might make it easier to identify,

I'm not exactly sure w/ my son's ex-g/f b/c her mother was a drama queen, and it was hard to get a straight answer from her............but I would guess it was much the same as your mom's. the crushing headaches and blurred vision were what started the whole process of going to the doctors, that's how they found it. I was also told that if you were going to have a brain tumor, hers was the best kind. (I mean if there can be a "best kind").....anyway, she is fine now.

whole 'nother story now....now she is PG, and her mother has completely disowned her. I can not understand how anyone would abandon their daughter at the time in her life when she needs her mother the most. She got pregnant from her boyfriend while in college. Not ideal; but it happens. The boyfriend is beside himself w/ happiness; the girl is adorable....and the holier-than-thou "Christian" mother has disowned them both. What is wrong w/ people???????

OK, sorry...........................

Oh, that's awful. What a bitch she is.

[Wireline]

1. Technically, we all do look alike...just on the insides.
2. I was diagnosed with a similar tumor when I got out of the service ... thru the miracle of prayers by other people (I was a total and absolute non-believer back then) said tumor healed and departed...we shall be praying for you as well...(at least I will be)
3. We have a sinkhole out here in West Texas...she lives out in Kermit.

[melinda]

Oh, that's awful. What a bitch she is.

to be honest, Haddie....I think she is crazy.
I know all things work for a reason and a purpose, but many times I feel that my son would still be w/ that little girl had it not been for her mother. My son dated the girl for three years; he loved that little girl. But he could not deal w/ her mother any longer.....
but she and her new b/f are so happy, and thankfully her grandmother is helping them out. And many "mothers" in the community who know her story. It's still so sad though.

[melinda]

Kermit.

[thehunter]

[Wireline]

wire...facts and I are best buddies...

In your profession, they have to be...in mine, there is a balance between fact (Ohm's law, Nyquist theory, etc) and opinion (which mic sounds better than the other?)

A menu in a strange restaurant is a terrifying ordeal for me...:evil:
no facts on which to base my decision - only opinion and intuition, and hold the cheese.

[melinda]

Ron Stone died........that's so sad. :(

[JDGreen]

Ron Stone died........that's so sad. :(

Who's Ron Stone?

[texan_rep]

He's a former Houston news anchor (I had to look it up...I didn't know either).

[texan_rep]

morning all

[Wireline]

Houston had a news anchor?

Isn't that kind of like Lubbock having a boat anchor?

Isn't there a singer/songwriter named Paul Anchor?

[JDGreen]

He's a former Houston news anchor (I had to look it up...I didn't know either).

Oh, OK.. Thanks..

[texan_rep]

*groan*

[Wireline]

Groan? GROAN?!? That's all you can say?

Nothing like, "I've groan used to bad puns, but this worst." or "he must have fallen and twisted his anchor"

but just 'groan?' Its like you are losing your spirit Tex....is "the Man" holding ya down? Have they broken your spirit...I don't mean to cause such a row, but its unsettling to see you in such a skiff.

[texan_rep]

I'm tired, but I'm not too tired to keel you or dock your pay...

[melinda]

He's a former Houston news anchor (I had to look it up...I didn't know either).

yeah, he always gave me my news while I was growing up......somehow he got old.
RIP Ron.....:(

usually I have to hold "the Man" down or else he gets away...............

[Wireline]

Kind of like wagging the dog, but on a different scale, huh?

[Wireline]

I'm tired, but I'm not too tired to keel you or dock your pay...


Oar else what? Trolling? Sorry - don't mean to barge in on your life like that...but is it something to do with your dinghy?

[melinda]

:rolleyes: pot-kettle-black....

[melinda]

mel..real close now...any food suggestions yet :)

OK...my friend said there really are no bad restaurants or places to avoid. They are all good, and the seafood is always fresh.
She did mention Gaidos, which is very cliche to Galveston.
And she said Fisherman's Wharf was GREAT!! She said to have a bellini there.....:)

lots of just little hole-in-th-wall places that are fun....so just explore and enjoy!!!!

[texan_rep]

Uh, huh....

Lord KNOWS you've never posted a lame-o and feeble attempt at a pun....

:rolleyes: pot-kettle-black....

absolutely I have never done such a thing...you're just jealous...

[melinda]

:rolleyes: pot-kettle-black....

"Hello, Pot....this is Kettle. You're black!" :))



(what's that from?)

[Wireline]

Mel, I think that was from a Gene Wilder/Richard Pryor movie in which they both get wrongfully sentenced to prison terms...some sort of 'comedy'...

Tex...:liar:

[texan_rep]

I have no idea :((

[melinda]

it's from an episode of "Friends"....but they could have stolen it from somewhere else. :))

[texan_rep]

oh...well, I never watched "Friends"...

[melinda]

oh...well, I never watched "Friends"...

my husband can't stand it either....but my daughter and I both LOVE it.
We both own all 10 seasons on DVD; our own sets, we don't share....we have many of the episodes memorized b/c we watch it so danged much. :))

:mrgreen:

[melinda]

[melinda]

:mrgreen:

:)) :)) :))

[texan_rep]

What's the problem? Isn't your boat waterproof?
:mrgreen:

I suspect half of it is...

[melinda]

I suspect half of it is...

port or starboard??

[Wireline]

shouldn't that question read: "port or chardonney?"

I've heard you wine before, y'know...and don't make me blush.

[texan_rep]

port or starboard??

ummmmm...the correct question would be "bottom or top"...to which the correct answer would be "hopefully, bottom"...:))

[melinda]

ummmmm...the correct question would be "bottom or top"...to which the correct answer would be "hopefully, bottom"...:))

that's too easy....I like mine better. :))

[Wireline]

a waterproof bottom?

I guess it depends.

[melinda]

a waterproof bottom?

I guess it depends.

oh, Wire....really. :)) :)) :))

where do you get this crap?

[melinda]

a waterproof bottom?

I guess it depends.

you really can be such an ass......:razz:

:))

[Wireline]

Sorry...really.

It is almost an affliction :sad: that I am such a smartass....its gotten me into trouble more than once.

At another site I frequent, I recently passed a posting milestone - someone commented on that, and mused in written form wondering how many were serious and contribution oriented posts, and how many were just smartass remarks or puns....

Funny/ironic that I noticed the two within 5 minutes of each other....


Truth be known, acute smartassery is a wonderful self defense mechanism.

[melinda]

Pardon me if I don't verify your cute, smart assery...:snooty:

[Wireline]

Pardon me if I don't verify your cute, smart assery...:snooty:


really, Tex...my smart-assery is all its cracked up to be.

[melinda]

is tex saying that Wire has a cute ass? :eek:


:))

[Wireline]

yes he is...and I for one am both offended and flattered...

Should I post in TTTM or ask him to send flowers?

[texan_rep]

is tex saying that Wire has a cute ass? :eek:


:))

:evil:

No...I am saying that I refuse to verify his self-proclaimed cute ass...:snooty:

[texan_rep]

no I am not...:snooty:

[Wireline]

admit it, Tex....its OK....just don't try to act on these fantasies, and we all will be just fine.

[texan_rep]

once again, wire...the proper smiley response would result in an instaban. So I'll just have to tell you that you're number 1. :whistle:

[melinda]

:evil:

No...I am saying that I refuse to verify his self-proclaimed cute ass...:snooty:

awe, I just couldn't resist. :))


morning, tex. :hug: :hug: :hug:



you do still love me? don't you? :angel:

[melinda]

morning, Wire. :hug: :hug: :hug:

[Wireline]

And you would be...Number 2? :whistle:

Morning Mel :hug: :hug: :hug:

Tex, what happened to the "turn the other cheek" approach, anyway? :mrgreen:

[melinda]

And you would be...Number 2? :whistle:

Morning Mel :hug: :hug: :hug:

Tex, what happened to the "turn the other cheek" approach, anyway? :mrgreen:

the crap just never stops flying around this place....does it?? :))

[Wireline]

I know....its like there is a critically evident outbreak of no assitawl, a debilitating medical condition.

[texan_rep]

awe, I just couldn't resist.


morning, tex.



you do still love me? don't you?

:evil:
:snooty:

:doh:
:wall:

:hug::hug::hug:

morning mel

[Wireline]

he's whipped...

[texan_rep]

wire, your interest in my cheeks worries me...

[Wireline]

who is discussing your cheeks in other than a clinical approach, Tex? No assitawl is a serious condition which if left untreated, will result in a terminal case of OMA...(Old Man's Ass)...symptoms include sagging pockets, regardless of what is in them, strange wobbling appearance, and so on....

[texan_rep]

Unfortunately, those are the same symptoms exhibited by a drunk farmer...

[melinda]

:evil:
:snooty:

:doh:
:wall:

:hug::hug::hug:

morning mel

I am hard to resist....frustrating but lovable. :)

[texan_rep]

yes, I seem to attract that type...:doh:

;)

[Wireline]

What type - the drunk farmers you spoke of?

Doooooooooood!

[melinda]

What type - the drunk farmers you spoke of?

Doooooooooood!

no...........the frustrating but lovable types.

[JDGreen]

I LOVE a smartass!!
it's what I, myself, am known for in my real world. ;)

Better a smartass than a dumbass... At least that's how I roll...:mrgreen:

[melinda]

Better a smartass than a dumbass... At least that's how I roll...:mrgreen:

but what if I'm both?? :))


in real llife I am always a smart ass, but sometimes on type it just comes out mean...I hold back on here.
but in person..................:mrgreen:

[JDGreen]

but what if I'm both?? :))

Don't hold back... Tell us what you really think.....:mrgreen:

Did you ever record any of those obscene phone calls? You could listen to them on your iPod or something...:mrgreen:

[Hadassah]

If I did listen to them in the machine, I'd be laughing so hard, they wouldn't be able to get a good pic. :)) :)) :))


Come to think of it....I was told I might be getting another one last night........never happened. That obscene caller better get on the ball for today! :razz:

[texan_rep]

we'll be waiting for a full report...

[Hadassah]

I'm home. Nothing to report yet.

[texan_rep]

They didn't find ANYTHING? :razz:

Go answer my question! :lol:

[Hadassah]

Oh, they had to have found something. They just haven't told me yet what that is. Heck, they haven't even told me if I do have a brain. :))

[melinda]

tex....it's do or die, and so far you're doing. ;)

[Wireline]

Morning.

[melinda]

Good Morning, all y'all Texans out there!! :hug:

[Wireline]

Morning folks...

Just got back from the Vietnam Vet's Memorial location - I provided and ran sound for a gathering of bikers taking the Southern Route on the annual "Run for the Wall" event, in which bikers of all types from all over the nation ride to the national Vietnam Vet's memorial "The Wall" in D.C....

Attendance was down this year, thanks to the price of gasoine....I think the estimate was 410 bikes, plus support vehicles, etc...the local American Indian group (of which I belong) offered a 'smudging' ceremony to all riders, and all but 2-3 took advantage of it...My spouse is allowed to conduct smudges, so she did about half of them....quite a sight.

A great bunch of people from all over riding for a great cause - rememberance of fallen soldiers, surviving soldiers, and lost soldiers (POW/MIA)....

Hell, I'm always proud to be an American, but there are some days that pride does not properly convey my feelings...this is one of those days.
