Anthony. It says ADD a sentence or two. What
I created was the beginning
Maybe in time you will learn that what you create here, once posted, is forever out of your control.
so therefore it is
an introduction and not an addition;
It seems more of an obsequious, nihilistic grab for attention to me.
moreover,
If I started with a twenty line paragraph I still
wouldn't be ADDING a sentence or two.
Hopefully a 20 line paragraph would have more than a sentence or two, unless the column width is such that only one word will fit on a line.
If this
is too much for you to grasp, then you probably
are more amused than I at your immense capability
of counting to three.
Aw Hell . . . I bet Anthony could be amused by much
less, say this Thread, for instance!
I do; however, like your take on Mr. brother.
Ooooooo . . . bad-cop, good-cop, all in one person! Now
I'm amused!
I would like to see the use of full sentences
that pass for some form of the English language
when possible.
Yes Miss McGillacutty.
Try and use sentences that you
would be comfortable reading in front of somebody
you respect.
Well, that won't be too difficult, where do you think I learned my subtle wit and benign sense of humor? From the people I respect most in this world (and any other) . . . My Mother and My Father. They'd
LOVE this place!If this is too much for this forum
What was too much was your first line in this little diatribe about our replies to your precious thread.
well that's sad to say the very least.
I don't know about you, but
I don't get sad when I say "the very least", maybe you have some lexicological phobia you need to discuss with a psychiatrist.
I know
we all have a penchant for colorful behavior and
postings,
WHO!!?? WHAT!!??but some don't have the wherewithal
to keep it in check when appropriate.
And just
where, oh Wise One,
is it appropriate?
Dave, It's as questionable a contribution as it
is a sentence.
OK, so what happened to the "good-cop"?
MrK. As I don't live on Remote Central nor do
I post an average of over 100 times per week,
That's an average of 100
.8 per week, thank you very much.
I am regrettably not as up to date as you on the
Remote Central archives and overall history.
That's why Daniel gave us a Search Function!
Still, I fail to see what bearing your encyclopedic
comment has to do with this thread. If you have
nothing to add more than a "Been there. Done that"
Then please don't bother.
Well, you
were able to get "Been there. Done that" out of "old hat". And in case you haven't noticed . . . I
LOVE to bother!!!
Otherwise feel free
to contribute.
Some things in life
are still free..........
There are believe it or not new
people in here once in a while that may enjoy
themselves.
And I welcome them with an infinite number of available new threads to which they may post to their hearts' content. (Are you implying that
I don't enjoy myselves? 'cause you would be very, very wrong.
BTW.. The TWAT thread is not on track
for 20,000 posts by February, maybe you shouldn't
be here wasting time digging up inconsequential
thread activity for me.
Hmmmmmm . . . I do believe it was
you who imposed that benchmark, was it not?
Pardon me, yet I feel compelled to interject a
further bit of instruction.
Oh, please do, Obi Wan . . . you're our only hope!
When adding a post,
only use the history you are aware of,
THANK GOD!!! Due to my encyclopedic knowledge of the Remote Central archives and overall history, I can say anything I damn well please!!!!
and what
the last addition contains to formulate your addition.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm..........forrrrmulaaaassssss!!!!
-E.g., If the last post said "My shoes were wet
and made squishy noises as I walked down the hall."
You would come up with a relevant sentence add
based only on that last line, and what you already
may or may not know about the body of "The story"
"He has gone to bed in his boots" whispered Peter "how strange.!" --- How's that???
Please try to maintain a certain level of believability
and decorum,
Yeah, right.
or at least try to put the train
back on it's rails if it should roll off.
Too bad . . . can't do that. Please see
RULE #45 ( MrK
you don't need to insert a picture of a derailed
train here. )
Derailed Train pix are John's Department.
Like I said. This is a project. If nobody wishes
to participate, that's the end. That is fine.
If they do, It will work out.
Insert Tab A into Slot C . . . but what exactly is it that we're building?
If you are going
to use it as place for your digital vandalism
as is so prevalent in this forum. That's is only
your refection showing,
And a damned fine reflection it is!
please refrain if possible.
No-can-do.
Save it for a suitable thread.
This
is a suitable Thread . . . in this Forum all threads are suitable. No matter how high-falutin' you wanna make 'em sound.
Back to the beginning....
........it's a very good place to start.
I'll even correct a
bit of the grammar.
Grammar? We don't got no grammar!! We doan need no stinkin' grammar!
Sorry for the crack down.
Please see
Rule #43.
Once again, I'd rather
it went nowhere than down the path of destruction
like so many other threads that make my eyes bleed,
and by brain wish there were a workable time machine.
Yaddah, yaddah, yaddah.............
THANK YOU to those who can play by the rules.
To the rest... Well,... ...
WELCOME ABOARD THE MARAKESH EXPRESS!!!!!The Story
I'm not sure how old I was. The time we saw it
we were on a cross country trip. Me and Mr. brother
were in the back and the air conditioner was busted.
Mr. brother was the name of my pet monkey. We
were inseparable since the day my father brought
him home. My mother probably correct when she
said that a monkey was a bad idea for a pet.
That's
HIS Story . . . and he's sticking to it!
