Hey! I'm just getting started!
Do-de-do-de...what the??didn't i just come through here??i'm following myself again and i always get lost...do-de-do-de.
There's someone here, either on Bluetooth, or talking to himself....
You're right west,he just passed me...oh that was me never mind.
Yesterday upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there,
He wasn't there again today,
I wish, I wish he'd go away...
Hey jerry,you're good you might be the next..willum wurdsless lungfiller.
I'm just a poet and now, you know et. [[See how I did that? I'm just bad, Bruh!)
Jerry,you da man.
He makes a fortune writing verses for greetings cards.....
Actually, I rewrite them. Changing a word or two before selling them to another publisher is quicker and requires less imagination.
I tend to buy the cards marked 'Blank for special messages', as that's a good description of my mind at the time of purchase.
I'm not averse to that.
You're on the right lines....
I must confess I've been having serious difficulties with my iambic pentameters, but then don't we all?
Oh, I KNOW! There seems to be no reason or rhyme to it all. I had to have a scan to check out mine.
I didn't need a scan as I've already got a meter.
OK, I'm reading you well.
What's afoot?
I just knew you'd say that. Give you an inch, and you'll take a yard.....
Question: When is a game not a game?
Answer: When it is afoot.
Plans, preparation, happening....all words in current use, but where 'afoot' has declined....
Question: When's a door not a door?
Answer: When it's ajar!
LOLz. [[I crack myself up, sometimes.)
I hope you were paid well for your contribution to those old-style laughter tracks on US comedy shows. They were so maniacal, they were funnier than the scripts.....
Q. Why did the chewing gum cross the road?
A. Because it was stuck to the chicken's foot.
Oh, I'm really going to miss Joan Rivers.....
Why did the possum's friend dare him to cross the busy freeway?
He wanted to see if he had guts.
I'm glad that one ended quickly...especially considering the tragic consequences of that unfortunate spelling error.....
I have to stop using my tablet to post comments. Auto-correct has been doing a job on my posts lately.
Moses threw his from his hands.
I have an iPad, but I can't really get along with the touch screen. I much prefer a keyboard.
Ummm.... Was that a Biblical reference to what happened when Moses saw the sin of the people against the Lord or do you know someone named Moses? In any case, I won't be tossing mine anytime soon... Typing from it right now [[some people never learn, I guess).
I can see it being very useful to read incoming messages, but I feel I shall never learn to input as fast on the iPad. For one thing, I don't feel comfortable with the rigid surface. I like something which responds to my touch, like this keyboard. [[and yes, that was a reference from the Bible...)
Hah! I thought for a moment that your partner's name was 'Moses'.
Regarding tablets, they are good for browsing, much less so for anything serious. I would never conduct business with one and I'm not reading e-mails on it anymore. And God forbid that I would put personal documents on one with the news reports of how easily people are stealing information wirelessly these days.
With that being said, it's easy and kind of fun, so it's well worth owning.
I actually haven't found it so easy yet. I use the laptops, sometimes desktop, at home and work.
The iPad comes out with me but, very often, if I settle down with a coffee, I can't get a connection, even when I'm led to believe there is free Wi-Fi access. Happened just yesterday. I should learn to take a break from the internet, and just leave it at home.....
Be careful with the use of free wi-fi. There are many scammers out there making use of it. Over here, they're setting up free hot spots so that they can crib information from the cell phones and laptops of trusting people who discover the networks.
Yes, I do tend to be careful. Any work which requires financial details - bank accounts, paying for items via the internet - I generally tackle at home. Otherwise, being rather 'old school', I tend to think of doing serious stuff like finances, but while out and around, as being far too casual....:)
What a world we've created. People work harder to rob others than they would need to in order to earn the money legitimately. I don't understand why some are simply predisposed to causing heartbreak.
Almost always their background during their very earliest years......
You're surely right, but I'm convinced that there are some who have deviant personalities that can't be attributed to their environments. I've seen families wherein everyone is well-adjusted except for the one who believes that he is owed more than his meager circumstances provide. Sometimes, those families are very well-off from a financial standpoint. I'm not sure what parents can do for the child who feels unreasonably entitled to more than life provides.
I'd have a guess that some rebellious children become like that if they have a bit of spirit in their personality, and may also be intelligent and sensitive - but start to feel that a sibling is being favoured - and that, in turn, they are less favoured.
They are disappointed, and feel they have done something wrong, but say nothing directly to their parents, or teachers [[or anyone else that they feel they should be respecting), for fear that the truth is confirmed.
A gulf forms between the parents [[or teachers, etc) and one or more child on the one side...and the rebellious child on the other. Then, a few hormones start to kick in....
