:eyebrows:

I have been particularly regular here for the best part of a year, now. JP came back just last week, I'd not seen him at all until then.
It seems a few of the longer standing members have returned recently, which is fantastic because it's coinciding with the 10th anniversary of the board's inception (this Sunday, I believe).
So stick around :D

Sorry to hear about you and the bin recipient.

That's a tough go all around; hope you're doing well and are whole in body, spirit, mind, and wallet.

I may just stick my head in here, now, if the older crew has re-appeared.

I believe Clocker still posts?

Quite clearly, I did.
Do you see your error, there.

Only one on this forum does try to correct colloquialisms, do you see your error? In this case, your prior is as correct as my latter.
/x-thread ref

Yield to my colloquial imperative.

Doesn't the imperative accrue to the author of the...oh, nevermind.

Infrequently, more's the pity.

And don't be worrying about the bin's rightful owner. I didn't contest custody (of the bin) and found myself with a less shouty model (of a female) who is now quite settled within our chrome encrusted dwelling.

Good, then I'll be sure to rob your house and give them away to fuel cell developmental research projects.

LOL! You'd be in for quite a surprise if you tried something like that. You would have to try to do your fuel cell development research projects in your coffin.

I'm glad to see Kevin is back.


Clocky will probably show up around here soon.


I actually heard from Bob (BigBoab), but he doesn't seem to be posting here anymore.


Whatever happened to Lucifer (devilsadvocate) ?

I mean when I pry them from your warm dead hands, before the volunteer fire crew shows up to watch your house burn down while they wait outside for someone to come running out and pay your fees.

Both cocky and confident.

I like this. :wink:

And you assume that we couldn't or wouldn't pay the fees? How hard is it to pay the fees on time? I would much rather pay a non-union, private fire service like Rural Metro than pay taxes for some bloated bureaucracy to do the same thing at much higher wages and legacy costs.

What no one has responded to in these last few pages of posts is the fact that Walker won the recall election by a landslide in a formerly democrat stronghold.

Is doesn't look very good for unions, now does it?

Is doesn't look very good for Obama, either, now does it?

You could easily get behind with all the money you're dishing out to fedex handling all of your mail, a private security agency handling your neighborhood crime, a construction firm you contract with directly to handle your potholes and road maintenance, etc. Or maybe you're filthy rich from exploiting others and you could afford it, but had a difficult time keeping track of all the separate bills, so you hired someone else to just pay your bills, and they forgot to pay Rural Metro that month.
