Because Google Groups users are incapable of recognizing their own user name?

Mostly, it's because most people don't think of themselves in the third person but I'm having serious doubts about you.

>It is indeed a brilliant feature. It allows one to easily see which posts are self-written. OTOH, if one picks their user name as "me" while using Google Groups, that's what gets displayed as the poster. You'd think that Google wouldn't allow that user name to be used. I mean, that's just asking for trouble!
 
I understood it said "me", not because that's the name you gave
yourself, but because it's you. So that everybody sees "me" instead of
their chosen name.

But now they think that their user name is "me".

A lot of Americans don't care if other Americans have health insurance or not, all they care about is themselves. Why is that? I do not know.

Central air here and there's a big difference in an apartment and a
house. I think you once mentioned it's a 2br apartment? Something I
vaguely recall about a workroom that was probably the 2nd bedroom?
 
Here is quite a bit bigger. Home built in 1963. Like housing then, it
has it's quirks but in any development, you have some in each block
that are upscale of the others. Thats mine. Not obviously bigger from
the street view, it's 7 feet longer (front to back) and some 3ft wider.
It's been added to over the years so has a huge back screened porch
that is 13ft x 44ft plus the corner end was enclosed to a sunroom aka
'4th bedroom' (but technically enclosed porch by VA building code
because the ceiling is 7.5ft). The 1.5 garage was enclosed to an extra
family room.
 
Clocks in at just over 2,000 sqft. Just under 1,000kwh for April for
$125.

No. I have gas heat. The blower on the furnace runs 24/7, but that
doesn't draw a ton of current.

News about churches reopening, etc.
Trump vs state governors.
 
One reporter said,
"Well I'm a Christian and I'm dying for churches to reopen."
 
heh heh Do you spot the funny part like I did?
 
He better just hope that he doesn't find himself dying
*because* the churches reopened too soon.

I have only made kimchee with Napa. I'd love to hear how you make the
cucumber type. I have a nice jar of Korean chili flakes that I can
use.

I've never read every post and of late I read less than half. There're
some half dozen I have killfiled so I never read their trash and I
don't bother opening posts from those whose name I don't recognize.
If a new poster wants to be recognized they need to introduce
themselves otherwise I'll never open their posts again. When I see
that the same person makes multiple posts in a row to the same thread
I delete the entire thread unread. I've been at RFC long enough to
know that if posters are not replied to they eventually disappear.
I no longer post often but I try to make at least one post a day.
There are some who rarely if ever post anything useful but I will
still read their posts for the RECreational/entertainment value like
Kootchie and Julie. I used to read the Dwarf's posts regularly but of
late they have the value of used TP... they're mostly hateful,
envious, and spiteful... they're infected with the FaceBook Virus.

Here's another thing I just thought of...
 
Cheryl's sister had died young leaving 2 young kids.
Cheryl either took them in or at least was helping
out with them.
 
And then Aunt Cheryl dies young too?
 
Those poor kids will probably have a very cynical outlook
on life forever.
 
Good one, God! >:-|

Well, I don't think a wild goose would make a very good dinner...especially with having to remove all that shot...
 
;-)
 
Just saw a silly joke that has nothing to do with this topic:
 
"A man is walking around blowing a horn. Asked why, he said it was to frighten off the elephants. Told that there are no elephants in New York, he said
"See – it works!'

I rarely read most of your long pontificating posts either, but I don't rely on a killfile to not read them! Because *I* am in control of what I read or not!
