Yay, new page.
hello shaggy :wave:
I was wondering what happened to you. Haven't seen you around in a bit. Hope all is well.
Yes. I'm at an age where people go silent and it is easy to let the imagination run wild.
Well, I'm still alive. But I got to say, after 65 it feels like my body is aging in dog years. :cool:
Going to the dogs, are you?
Yeah, it's ruff!!
I got chastised tonight for warning an old lady not to toss around the phrase "cyber friends" which apparently doesn't have the connotation that it had in the past.
I was certain that its proximity placed into the same realm as "cyber sex" but a few searches seem to show that the old stank has been expunged.
Live and learn.
Paul McCartney once told me to live and let die.
You should have corrected yourself to cyborg friends, and told her that she would be assimilated.
hmmm, I see Niya is back. Looks the VBF has granted him a pardon.
How did you guess that the place is crawling with Apple users?Quote:

Well, I told my son tonight the truth about Santa, Easter Bunny, etc. and that was one of the hardest talks I have ever had.
I feel terrible. But he is old enough and it was time.
What truth?? Has something happened to them?? Have they done something bad??Quote:

I don't remember whether or not I actually believed in any of those characters.
Yeah, I can picture you in a lab coat by 5yrs old. Enough of that childish nonsense. :pQuote:

That's more accurate.
Somebody attempting to slide down our chimney always bothered me a bit. It wasn't a very good chimney to slide down, even before we stuck a woodstove into the fireplace. I didn't think I would fit in the chimney, and some fat guy was right out, aside from the fact that he would be neither jolly nor clean by the time he reached the bottom.
Bet his mom didn't appreciate that.Quote:

I would've expected a hairy chested man ripping his shirt off with the message in body paint on his belly while also trying to sell vitamin supplements.
Except instead of Brain Force, itd be Chest Force :pQuote:

I just rub a bar of dry soap over my skin. It's nasty.
Seems like a waste of water. Aren't you supposed to bathe in sand like the birds?
Are these people 120yrs old or lizard people??Quote:

Working on the former. It's certainly an age thing.
Bathing in sand is rough on the skin. It's a coarse, basaltic sand around here that nobody woud take for granite.
So hard to keep up with the slang. What's the phrase, or is this already obsolete: "Iced out?"
Now, two weeks later, suddenly "What do you want?" out of the blue.
Are there classes or a club or something? Where do they get such behavior?
Yeah, that's obsolete. I think the current phrase would be "ghosted", but I'm old, so maybe that's too last year.
The games continue. Is there a class they take or what? "Fight Club" for women? :p
There's a manual. You don't get one, of course, but they have one.
And you choose to play the game. lolQuote:

My guess is that I might be a pawn in some rich widows' sport. What suggested that was an open post about getting together with her friends to laugh their asses off sharing "dating stories."
Probably time to leave the playing field.
Over what time frame did those three different cars show up? I wouldn't say a "pawn", based on that, but I'd certainly be concerned.
Black widows eat their mates.
2016, 2018, and 2020 according to Google's timestamps.
The house? That was after downsizing once the deceased husband had been ill for 2 years. There is more, but it all reeks of much bigger money.
Actually I don't give a damn about any of that. I might be a frugal as Jack Benny but that's by choice.
Bizarre. The "setting a phone call appointment" thing now produced:

... 3pm Tuesday. Haha. See, we are never on the same page. lol. What are you doing work wise now?
Sounds familiar
Darn, I forgot gif's don't play.
Point taken though.
Godfather, right?
My father was dating a gal in Canada who had a very nice house and a very nice car. She had no money, though. She had to rent out several rooms in the house just to cover the payments. Poor money management can make you appear rich when you are not, or can make you appear poor when you are.
Well somebody must be making house payments, quite a bit on that note yet at an absurdly low rate of interest. The phone is "stealthed" and it took a little digging to get past the fake name associated. Everything seems to check out.
Amazing what you can find with some effort and paying a dollar to one or two web sites.
Yeah, GF IIIQuote:

Well, don't give up!!!
It's fun reading your posts about how much fun your having. ;)
Yeah, fun. Can't wait for the other shoe to drop. She seems to have closets full.Quote:
