And the Troll-o-Meter judges give it: a....2.3!!! Awww....we thought it
would be higher! Let's ask one of the judges why the low score..
"We just felt that although the delivery was _fair_, the presentation
was old and re-used...it lacked imagination and had the earmarks of an
adolescent who had just discovered that daddy was in the bathroom and
left his computer on...sorry, just wasn't original or funny enough to
rate a higher score...some of the judges felt sorry for him so that's
why we agreed on the 2.3 instead of 1.0"
Well folks...there ya have it...the Troll-o-Meter judges have
spoken..come back next post when we see if ole ruffian (aka buddy) here
can try for a snappier comeback!
*clap* clap*clap*clap*
.. thankyou...no really..you're too kind...thankyou..please....

Yes, not only do you have to tell your entire life story, including
intimate details such as are found on the talk shows, making up good
stuff if you are boring, but you also have to send a FQ to everyone
before we let you post.

Yikes! I"m even too boring to make stuff up!
I knew I was doomed from the begining!!
Maybe I should go hang out in the creative writing ng... Gosh, I hope not
that place is scary! :)

I agree with you, Diana, which is why i'm changing the subject to OT, starting
now...LOL.

Whew! Im so glad you explained...
Now, had I gotten to know you better thru some OT posting and all I might
have known this was meant as humor. ;-P
heehee...
I wish there could be a very good way to seperate the OT chatty posts from
the ones that are truly on topic, but right now there isnt. It does help
when we remember to put OT in the topic...as you pointed out this one surely
should have been marked as such.

By the way folks, I was just kidding with the 'starting another
newsgroup' part of the post! I realize I have an off the beaten path
kind of humor but sometimes don't realize how it'll be read until after
I read it myself!!! :-)

Except that....posts like this don't have OT in the subject line! ;-)

It seems every now and then a member here gets the desire to 'know'
others better and posts a open ended question that is remotely
associated with quilting (and sometimes not at all). Maybe they should
start another newsgroup devoted to self-disclosure....

You vould always just filter out messages that have OT in the subject or

I don't think you are forced to tell anything ( or read anything) that
you
don't want to......

I agree w/Buddy and disagree w/Flossy. This NGrp is like looking in a
"junk drawer": You want to find something you hope is in there
somewhere, but you have to wade through a lot of stuff to find it. It
does no good to say "ignore everything there but what you're looking
for" We are human, yet almost as curious as our cats.

I'm new at quilting, get help here, and appreciate it. Some of the
"old hands" who know their craft well and willingly share their
experience also like to talk about a lot of other stuff with their
friends.

Some might respond that I'm paying the price of admission by being an
"outsider". Like a child: be seen if necessary, but not heard. Your
opinions don't count here. Power sometimes corrupts. I don't like it,
but it's "their" NGrp by sheer number of posts.

On balance, it's worth my time, since it's the only game in town. And
thanks for sharing information on quilting.

In that case, feel free to plagerize someone else's life. wg

about
other

problem.
But

relevance

Herin lies my point. You learn to skip posts. You learn to ignore
what
you don't want to read. Joan has been here for longer than me, and I
have
not heard her voice her opinion on OT posts until now. Either way,
IMHO,
we are all allowed our opinion. Joans opinion is that she doesn't
like

the

OT posts. My opinion is that I love them. Neither opinion is wrong,
neither is right. We agree to disagree.

| However, if you upset the board 'divas,' prepare to be scorched.
:
They are

I by no means,do I consider myself a diva....I'm just overly cranky
today.


BTW, on a side note for Joan, I'm taking "Grassroots" to the hospital
with
me for some labor music g

Karlee in Kansas who is wondering if/how she can get her favorite 311
cd
autographed.......

Oh what a great idea!

By the time Emilia got her first major film role in 1984, as a vivacious
young cocaine addict in St. Elmo’s Fire, she herself was battling a
serious drug addiction. The film’s director, Joel Schumacher, threatened
to fire her if she didn’t clean up her act, and Emilia quit using drugs
during the filming. When St. Elmo’s Fire was released, it became one of
the quintessential movies of the eighties.

Emilia's three-year relationship and on-again, off-again engagement with
Emilio Estevez, begun during the filming of St. Elmo’s Fire, ended in
1987. Shortly thereafter, Emilia met actor Bruce Willis, then the
charming star of TV’s Moonlighting. After a whirlwind three-month
courtship, Emilia and Willis were married in November 1987.

Less than three years later, both Emilia and Willis had made the leap to
A-list Hollywood stardom—

*Ok, not really my life!! Could you image Emilia and Emilio??? Yuk!
Good think I dumped him and married Bruce... Oh, wait... That's NOT my
life!

So glad you liked it. Feel free to express your appreciation in fabric.

Emilia and Ashton sittin' in a tree...
