I have to agree with Steve. Running XP on the Internet is an invitation

When I say "your" or "you", I'm not referring to you personally or any single person on this group. I stay away from making personal remarks. Unless, of course, if your name is "Bruce."

That's too easy. Of course you made a personal remark aimed at him
personally. You can't do something and then simply say you didn't do
it :)

I see the problem here. You are muddling judgement with suspicion and
fraud. I suggest that you google "synonym judgement", "synonym
suspicion" and "synonym fraud" to see that none reference the others. I
understand your confusion, not being a native English speaker. But
you're getting there!

But it's true. John says: My son didn't call on Father's Day. And RFC
goes: He has no relationship with his son. He must have been be a
deadbeat dad! Boo! Hiss!
 
It's possible, but we don't know that. We know nuttin'! That doesn't

What would be the point of that? I know they can afford a house on
this street, and that's about all I need to know.

That was not my first conclusion. My first thought was: his son got
tired of the crazy.

Or maybe the son is crazy. Or maybe they're both crazy. Or maybe
neither is crazy. We know nuttin'!

I just looked at Joan's full headers. I don't see any hex format
there. Copy and paste what you are seeing. I'm just curious.

Publix at #15. It's the only grocery store on this list in my area. As
usual, a skewed survey.
 
FWIW, Publix adopted a recent SC proposed law against plastic bags (as
did many other local retailers). For some reason it has not officially
been signed into law. But the retailers stepped up. Some stopped
offering plastic bags at the checkout. I've seen signs out in front of
stores urging people to bring their own bags.

Our shopkeepers no longer give them away free. They charge 5p per bag.
Not a lot you might think but it has reduced consumption hugely. It is much
more normal now to see shoppers carrying their own shopping bags:)

WTF? Before I switched to reusable bags, I brought paper grocery bags
back to the store. They lasted for dozens of trips before I had to
retire them.

Front passenger seat for me, since I vanishingly rarely have anybody else
in my car. As a bonus, if it's raining or snowing, I don't have to faff
around getting them out of the back.

What's this stuff good for? I know I can use in for bathing. But what's it
good for in the kitchen? I have a bag. Not sure where it came from. Might
have been a gift.
 
Thanks!

The idea of having a bag of fossil salt that's been around since before the age of dinosaurs is pretty awesome. Chipping your teeth on particles of quartz, however, is not cool. I dumped my bag of salt because I'd like to keep my teeth for a while. Your best bet is to toss the salt around your house to ward off evil spirits. That's what we do.

I was in Mexico just once and only for an afternoon. Parents
decided to go watch a bullfight. I was still young, probably
about 5. My only memories of that are from the home movies they
took. They also bought a fake souvenir poster there that
advertised the event and listed the matadors. Three matadors
listed in large letters. My name was the second one listed. heh
heh I still have that somewhere here.
 
Note: Pretty sad thing to watch. I was told that the dead bulls
were given to the poor for food. That's well and good but the
torturing for sport is pretty messed up.

Don't believe everything you read on Wikipedia. The term for the neck
between the two is Mesoamerica per, well lookee here!, Wikipedia.
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoamerica>
Central America is much more descriptive. Well, lookee here! Wikipedia.
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_America>
Apparently, the jury is currently out on where the two Americas join
and what's in-between.

Dude I wasted all of my time reading this post hoping there would be a
good plot point or otherwise a reason for the post and for reading it.
Like lets say a freakin recipe for at least the pea soup

Anyone here play online poker? I do. I play micro limit so my profits
aren't that great, but I used to make a small profit. How? By grinding it
out. Playing very few hands and playing only premium starting hands. I'm
talking Texas Hold-Em poker. It's a very boring way to play, and even
though I make a few shekels here and there, it's not very satisfying. You?
I started to play looser, but now I'm losing. It is however more fun to
play loose. Playing tight and winning is more of a drag than paying loose
and losing.

Did you cook or prep any food in between those games?

I notice definitions online list many countries, such as Panama, being in
North America. Presumably on account of them being north of the equator.

Why do your headers show your IP in some sort of extended hex format?
 
I've seen it in other posts but never worked out what conversion is being
used.

It's two small legs and a thigh with backbone, dumbass. They were
chicken quarters and that's about $1's worth there ($.75/lb). And
those are medium egg noodles.
 
You say you eat a whole chicken and you call that two meals?
