Sincerely, Living in a White Out --------------------------------------- Living in a White Out, Tell fertahubby that while he was soiling himself you consider letting Wayne's coat hang in the dining room cause he was bringing home the bacon. Oh wait, be patient when explaining bringing color into a white world, it takes time. People get weird about that. ;>
Originally Posted By bloona hey, my back yard's not for hiring !!! actually it could do with a make-over ! Dear L&L.

A good friend of mine, says that she will not try to hide me in her suitcase when she goes to Orlando, as I did not agree to hide her in mine when I last visited. Is this just being petty? Should I end our friendship? If I did hide in there, would I need my own passport? Could I breath in the cargo hold? Or is it humainly possible for a human to hold their breath for 10 hours? Thank you in advance.
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Dear bloona, Yes. Possibly. Not unless somebody finds you, in which case not having a passport will be the least of your worries. Yes. No. It's a moot point because you'd freeze solid anyway. Miss Litter thinks you need to find a new friend who is fabulously wealthy and generous. And hey, if he happens to look like Aladdin, all the better. Good luck, dear!

Throw yourself over her shoulder while dressed in a 'Hefty or Glad' bag. Have fun, be brave, challenge the status quo!

They have to come to these realizations themselves. It's called tough love. When he posts things that are suppose to be funny but there not. No emoticons of smiley faces. No LOL's, no ;>. Just let it hang there in dead air just like his dead pathetic, sad, painful, useless, mindless, disgusting attempt at humor.

Dear "friend of you know who" -- I sympathise with the heartbreak you feel. As Lisa said, sometimes you just have to accept that you are powerless. However, it might help console you to know that your friend's unfortunate condition seems to be due to a recessive trait. His offspring have well-developed senses of humor, even despite the environment in which they have been raised. As is so often the case, we can put our hope in the children.

Originally Posted By Inspector 57 <<Yes, but they turn into little cheats and hustlers!>> Well, yeah, they're total con artists. But they have good senses of humor!
Originally Posted By debtee ohh I just thought I'd better check that you all know nut cases is a term of endearment here, I hope it translates ok! lol

Thanks you two. "informative, helpful and friendly". Hey you could use that as your name!!
