Of course we're sometimes biased where he's concerned. ORWEN: Hugs to you Spirit! ORGOCH: Got condiments???

Originally Posted By MPierce I'm right in the center too, and I think Governor Palin is refreshing, and the subject already started down that long political road. I love a good scrap about politics, religion or any other subject. I do agree that they belong somewhere else though. Good sound advice as always from Nikki, and bobbelee. Now spit out your gum SPIRIT, and sit up straight!

She's always thought she was better than the rest of us and that she didn't have to obey any of the same rules. I say it's high time she got knocked clean off her flimsy little splinter of a broom stick. Any time you feel like roasting her little rump in public, you sure have MY permission to do it! I'll ever supply the fire wood!

Originally Posted By MPierce >> Is the minion revolting? That's used as a verb, not an attack on you personally. << Absolutely not. The Spirit likes to have free thinking minions. I disagree with Spirit on several issues, politics is just one of them. I have a very high respect for his opinions on any matter. I've never felt I needed to look at a clone of my beliefs, and opinions to find a friend. I would never consider anything you say to me as an attack bobbelee. You're just not that way, and I know it.
Originally Posted By bobbelee9 Thanks, MPierce. I don't try to attack anyone, but I realize the person reading what I wrote might see things differently from how I meant it. And visa versa. Thanks Orwen, but I prefer roasting rumps in my slow cooker. Helps to warm up my house on cold days.
Originally Posted By Witches of Morva ORWEN: Well, that's okay, bobbelee9, duckling! I like your idea even better! It's the next best thing to boiling the old biddy in oil!!

Ever tried to talk and have a 10 year old interrupt you and tell you that you're wrong? Ever had a 10 year old tell you that the books (which you spent your own money on and provided for their enjoyment) suck? How about having 10 years old talk over you while you're trying to teach, and then complain to you that they're failing? If I hear the excuse "rules are made to broken" next week, Spirit and Dave are flying to New Orleans and sitting with my kids while they serve detention from 3:00-4:30.
