I said $100 surge protector. I'm surprised at how many people spend $15 on a surge protector and are shocked, SHOCKED that it didn't do anything. Spend NO LESS than $100 on a surge protector for your stereo, TV and computer.

Now dear, everyone is saying bitch please, please bitch is revolutionary!

New YorK is so 1976, which is, not Koincidentally, about the time I left it.

While all of those things are inconvenient and/or unhealthy, they wouldn't cause people to be unable to exit their cars (unless they pass out from carbon monoxide poisoning in the tunnels). As later noted, the "cars" referred to were subway cars not car-cars and it is difficulter to get out of a subway car without power, plus you're kind of stuck-er even if you do get out.

Is there some kind of fund we can donate to for the surgery that is needed to attempt to fix the effects of the massive head injury you have obviously suffered? That's like the wisp of smoke that results when you try to strike a match but it doesn't light.

It may be a long walk wiht the rats but at least you don't have to worry about stepping on the third rail. Anyone remember that scene in "The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3"?

Yes, I like old movies.

YEs, please send loads of money my way.

Actually, i think the sitch is that I logged on today to vent some frustration, and then it was like a big love fest with all the venom spewing, like old times, that it made me soft... not soft, in my normal extremely pudgy soft way, but it touched my overworked heart.

*sniff*

I'm hoping this is a temporary condition, or i will need that cash for the lobotomy.

I did not know that trading PM's with fringey would get me pregnant, but thanks for the warning.

Lamest Posters Hit Parade*

3. Leagl
4. Burger
5. Paigow

*Much like Playboy had to retire Chico State from its list of party schools in the 80s because it was unfairly comparing professionals to amateurs, Bilmore has been retired here based on his 65,000+ posts (but reliable information indicates that he is in the top 5, if not the lamest poster of them all).

Power outage
 

Fringie and I have PM'd about this and we are concerned, most concerned RB about your present state. I suggested to her perhaps you are simply finally getting enough sex, and that is what is wrong with you? Is that it? It has to be something. Can we help somehow?

Ok until the "Hippie Chick" part.

Speaking of, anyone else see the story today on cnn about the guy who was pushed off a subway platform and survived by rolling between the rails just as a train approached? Train stopped on top of him (the conductor saw him, but couldn't stop in time) and emergency workers got him out. I filed it away in my Worst Case Scenario survival mental notes.

We can't give the money to you -- you are clearly not competent. I will have myself appointed guardian.

You can, if you look, see his actual number of posts now. I figured if I have to be lame, he can be lame with me.

Ninja, please.

I am no where near the lamest poster here, neither are most of those on your list.

Shit! You're right! I will immediately stop having sex so that I can return to my old self... shit. I'm telling him right now.

Thanks Dr. Leagle... this could have remained ugly. I will go on hiatus again until i'm sufficiently sex starved.

Back to Fashion
 

no, no, no - 6 Kate Spade bags - just the tip of the iceberg on the overall bag collection. realizing I had 6 spades made me think I may need to get help. (probably not as long as I don't pick up one of those pink LVs)

So what you're saying is that Arby will have her own little monkey? With a coin purse?

He's used his ample free time to figure out the most prolific posters. These are just the posters with the five highest number of posts. Bilmore tops all.

You are not lame. But Less wins the LPOD award.

Fuck that. Give me some credit for spreading the lameness around.

Since E/O is the official FB moderator, I tend to think of it as "doing her [unpaid] job". Of course she is the only one of those listed that has written a sonnet for me.

I heart you -- but would also like us to have a 1964 goat because of its rarity. I am pleased that you chose the '69 which is when they were produced with the most muscle (okay, 1970 too) and I hope you are selecting the 400 Ram Air IV 4-Speed so we can top out the HP. I super-heart muscle cars.

Wait, are you just messing with me...funning me.....making me look the fool one more time because I take people's posts seriously so I think that maybe you really like big blocks, real steel and no seatbelts but you are gonna come back and laugh at me....maybe I don't heart you:(

hah. wrong. and you are so lucky that I was in a board meeting all afternoon and thus your attempt to rile me about my anal virginity has lost its steam. :P

Looks like I am not the only one who, when the jeweler offers up the eye-thingy replies "like I would know what the fuck I am looking at/for?". I admit that I am a schmuck and trust the jeweler -- which is probably another reason why I own very little jewelry. The only way I will know for sure that this rock is real is if I drive my car into a lake and have to cut through the window glass to survive. To further express my trust of jewelers I own a convertible and carry a knife to cut through the top if the lake thing ever happens.

edited to remind everyone that I was in a meeting all day and am now playing catsup so screw you in advance for your serial-poster comments. I know you all missed me and are dying to know what I think about each and every topic.

Say it, she could have gotten the t-shirt. By this time tomorrow, enterprising sidewalk vendors and tourist stores will be selling "I survived the blackout of 2003" t-shirts. By the weekend, there will be a wide selection from which to choose.

Now that I think of it, if I lived within driving distance of NYC (but in a place with power), I'd be at the t-shirt printers right now with a rush order so I could start hawking them first thing in the morning.

So...tomorrow then?

I just saw a chart of the powergrids, and Texas has its own power grid. We're not part of the Western Interconnect or the Eastern Interconnect.

So, basically, Texas rules.
