    OK, the BOT story. Last November we had rain for a period of about 3 weeks straight. One day, Bernd asked me if it had stopped raining yet. I told him yes, but now there is this Big Orange Thing in the sky. It was warm and bright but I couldn't remember what it was called. Ever sinse then, when Bernd wants to know how our weather is, he asks, "how's your BOT." Now, arn't you sorry you asked. It was much more fun when you didn't know.

    Wow, now why is it so hard to say that? If you CANNOT place them anywhere else then guess what......SOL. Sorry, but if there is NOTHING you can do what do you expect from us? Magic Pixie dust?


    HAHAH......The beginning of Magix Pixie Dust....LOL

    F it! I'll say it... I've been all over this here "internets" (to quote W) and this thread is the best thing ever written anywhere at anytime on any subject. It tears at the fabric of my reality. It is literary, yet banal. It is surreal, yet familiar.

    I was first reminded of Sartre's "No Exit." But, then I realized it was Beckett's "Waiting for Godot." Last line of the play: "Let's go." "Yes, let's go." (Stage direction: They do not move.)

    All I can say is I'm copying this ***** to my clipboard and shopping it to publishers.

    Now THAT is a classic!

    OK, I did read most (but not all) of the original thread, and found it both amusing and really strange. It didn't come close to something I was part of a few years ago, however:

    on another website, epinions.com, numerous reviews had been written on "The Passion of the Christ." Many were very positive, and others weren't - that's normal. One jerk, who called himself "dslcobra02" posted a favorable review on the film, but felt it necessary to add a series of vicious, anti-semitic remarks. Then, others (myself included) posted comments on his review advising him that epinions.com was not a place for such comments, and the stream of vitriol and anti-semitism that then spewed forth was nothing short of incredible. Ultimately, the site administrators removed any and all postings from dslcobra02, but not after an incredible series of back and forth comments from outraged Jewish folks and dslcobra02's hateful and genuinely cruel postings.

    SVI may have been (if he indeed ever was) an idiot, cretin, or living example of walking and talking plant life, but at least he wasn't hateful and cruel like dslcobra02.

    Hope you made it to the underware in the mail part from the guy he never met and is in love with.

    True that. Not a mean bone in his body. But a very lost soul. Have you been to his website? http://www.vanillaice378.proboards74...action=recent#

    Yeah, I kind of wish I'd archived some of the previous 'what's new' updates. They tend to get a complete edit every time, so some of the details are lost. But then I thought, "someone might think there was something wrong with a person who archives that kind of stuff."

    ...really, I don't have a problem...really...

    That guy (in the rocks section) used to be his avitar and that is the pic he keeps over his bed. Maybe Adam couldn't compete. But that guy Adam has been yanking our lil' SVI around from the start. SVI just doesn't see it yet. Love can be blind.

    LOL I just read that on another site and was wanting to use it. I am proud to be at the same level of normalcy as you. They say friends seek their own mental health levels.

    Two things:

    1) He needs to dump that fool Adam and find himself a nice guy who will treat him well.
    2) He needs a spell checker.
