Same goes for me if you ever need the help.

I was all set to have some lunch and then start drinking but now all I can think about is the work that I could/should be doing. Fucking dissertations.

Post Whore's post whoring's post whoredness is exceeded only by Post Whore's post whoring's post whorosity.

ETA: just notice a very cool feature of this board software. It shows you when someone has posted in a thread between the time you last viewed it and when you submit your post to go live. Thus, you can edit your post accordingly.

Man... I gotta update the BTD software...

Would it be accurate to say that a "Post Whore" is one who enjoys and actively seeks posts to fuck? :-?

Sounds like the only software you need to get is something to block all those sites. When I first looked, I had difficulty seeing who was a genuine member of BTD.

Otherwise, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Seriously, you've developed a fun, thoughtful board with real camaraderie. I only wish I had seen it when you first started it up.

And man ... that bee story gives me the creeps. Makes me wonder what's crawling around in our house. :ymsick: :ymsick:

She is strictly off limits. At all times. To everyone. Except me of course ;)

Thanks for the kind welcome, everyone! Good to see TomL and the other BTD'ers over there, and crazies on BTD. Cross-pollination is good.

One BTD poster we probably won't see here is Vance - his head would explode from the profligate use of emoticons here. :D

My thought exactly. Reminds me of that opera singers' forum we looked in on.

Welcome Johnboy and TomL! I am a little behind on my reading since y'all posted as I was preoccupied this past week and weekend! Looking forward to popping the top off a draft and reading the BEE story! :)

I am curious, would the use of this Word be considered a NOUN or PRONOUN? I am not sure that it is a person, place or thing, but then when I started looking into this further, my head started swimming in all the new variations and extension of how grammar as WE used to know it is evolving!!!! Kind of like NEW MATH!!!! :D

"Word" employed in the above manner would often get lumped in with the interjections, but it technically doesn't really qualify as any part of speech. It's akin to the words "yes" and "no":

Does anybody remember that Cosby Show episode? That was a good one, although in my opinion, there weren't very many Cosby episodes that weren't good (at least until the last couple of seasons).
