<p>Geez, QuantMech - don’t you have something to say about all this whirling?</p>
<p>jym, I have 3 replies, any or all of which will instantly result in the mods finally shutting this thread down. Frankly, I’m shocked you have co-wallowed.</p>
<p>I need to get S out of highschool and into T.I.T.S. before I lose my posting priveleges.</p>
<p>Right on Harriet!!
To everything there is a season… turn turn turn…</p>
<p>I think she is also about to be canonized. She has risen the dog from the dead. Now THAT’s an EC (or is it a hook… I forget)</p>
<p>now, now, now violadad,
Didn’t mean to leave you and your son’s T.I.T.S efforts out.
There is plenty of room for you down here in the gutter with us!! Come on down! Just leave the reincarnated dog. There is a leash law. We do have our dignity. Somewhere.</p>
<p>*** Wait** News from the front! VD’s son is already into T.I.T.S. Congrats!!</p>
<p>reincarnation = a new leash on life, initiated by the dog who rides in the backseat from coast-to-coast, while turning in circles. If priestess can make the journey within 3 days, she has achieved Nirvana. Nirvana is not my night cream, so don’t take any.</p>
<p>Violadad, I don’t think you’ll lose posting privileges. They always need a viola, although dads are kind of common.</p>
<p>p3t-
You mean his name isn’t voila dad?? I thought he was our resident French scholar. Now you see him, now you don’t. Well fancy that.</p>
<p>As an aside, no one want’s to see this thread be deep six’ed. It is doing wonders to our post counts! At this rate I’ll graduate from a Senior to a Master member soon!! VD, are there any Master members in your house?</p>
<p>Voiladad. You just reminded me of when I used to take S-1 out in a stroller, just a few years before he began to apply to many fine colleges.</p>
<p>There was a developmental milestone moment (this next part is true) when every man he saw he pointed to and said, “Daddy.” It was a gross generalization, of course, but when we went down the street and he’d start pointing at men, yelling, “Daddy!” they’d start jumping behind lampposts and doorways. We cleared many streets this way. </p>
<p>Back to topic…what was the topic?</p>
<p>Wait, ViolaDad, I thought we were discussing your D, not your S. I apologize if I missed when your son entered the discussion. I think that puts a totally different spin on things because according to US News & World Reports males have a MAJOR advantage in admissions these days, especially at LACS.</p>
<p>Or maybe the roombas have confused me.</p>
<p>Paying3, I laughed so hard at your last post that my dog ran out of the room. Who needs roombas when you can clear streets with a single word?</p>
<p>paying3. I not only had a useless major (the one that most athletes pursue to maintain eligibility.) I was also for a short time an art history major too. Gotcherback sister!</p>
<p>I made the mistake of working today. I see everyone else took the day off. Well, I won’t make THAT mistake again! The only way to keep up is to leave this page open and refresh every minute or two. 170 posts since last night! They’re coming to take me away ha ha ho ho hee hee (17.5 points to anyone who remembers the flip side)</p>
<p>Listen, now, I realize we’ve all driven our credibilities into the gutter with this thread, but you’ve got to believe me: The next sentences are true. </p>
<p>The son I told you about in the stroller? Last winter, he bought himself a roomba. I didn’t know what it was until this thread. He lives in an apartment the size of a walk-in closet. When I last visited him, it arrived by UPS. The cat and I were jumping all over each other trying to get out of the way.</p>
<p>yawa em ekat ot gnimoc er’yeht. I want my points and a roomba.</p>
<p>And now to bed.</p>
<p>Excellent! Well done! And the … “artist”? (or is that “artist?”)</p>
<p>(if you can find this question when you wake up many hours and hundreds of posts from now)</p>
<p>Napolean XIV Jerry Samuels. I guess I could be going by “GreyMom”, eh.</p>
<p>Beautiful! Came out about the same time as “Snoopy and the Red Baron” if I recall correctly. Aah, but we stray off topic.</p>
<p>This thread has done wonders for my Post count. No one’s answered my burning question of how many to get promoted from newbie to the esteemed “Member.”</p>
<p>And … and… how come I stayed @ the same # for three posts? How is that possible? I’ll never make Member at this rate!</p>
<p>Trust us, you will be a Member in no time. Or we will force you to become one. Resistance is futile.</p>
<p>Voil</p>
