Ms.Inspector : Thank you for your help.
Guest_249 : K thanks. I have been trying to track down Mr. Kevin ______ for weeks now.
Bundy. : Don't know.
Guest_249 : I totally appreciate your help. Do you know if the same guy still owns it? From what I remember it was a dump.
Bundy. : It is now called The Zone.
Guest_249 : Or can someone tell me what is right next door to what used to be the sports castle on Broadway? I appreciate your help.
Guest_249 : Does anyone know the status of the sports castle in idaho falls? I know the guy's first name was kevin... does anyone else know his last name? I have a business venture for that place.
Guest_409 : gato
Guest_409 : K see you later
Guest 3333 : well my dog is DEMANDING to be taken outside, and I have found out that if I don't give in, i'm the one who ends up paying the price. Thanks for your help -- hope to talk to you later
Guest_409 : hotmail has premade ones in a drop down
Guest_409 : I use Outlook, doesn't work in it
Guest_409 : some, not all, depends on the program, I think
Guest 3333 : I think i have them all written down. will they work in e=mails?
Guest_409 : try them out. glad to help, this is how I learned!
Guest 3333 : i thought you had to download something to make all those faces. Thanks.
Guest_409 : *remember
Guest_409 : remeber not to put any other words or symbols next to them or they won't work
Guest_409 : colon, the word evil, another colon makes
Guest_409 : 8 and right ) makes
Guest 3333 : as you can see, it doesn't take much to keep me happy
Guest_409 : colon and capital D makes
Guest 3333 : i'm so excited!!!!
Guest 3333 : guess you can get an education on the internet. okay going to try the frown,.:(
Guest_409 : colon and left parenthesis
Guest 3333 : Cool! How do I do a frown?
Guest_409 : yay
Guest 3333 : okay, going try that -- so if something funky comes through, bear with me.
Guest_409 : colon and right parenthesis
Guest 3333 : i don't know how to do smiley faces, so I have to resort to the old fashioned way
Guest_409 : DITTO, ha ha
Guest 3333 : as far as i'm concerned, we can write anything we want. i don't get my feelings hurt on an anonymous blog
Guest_409 : LOL
Guest_409 : are we allowed to write LOL?
Guest_409 : true, true
Guest 3333 : yeah -- you know the old saying: ask a man, he doesn't know the answer, ask a woman, she'll find out the answer
Guest_409 : I'll have to ask another girl, I guess
Guest 3333 : that would be my guess.
Guest_409 : Or they aren't substantive enough for him...
Guest_409 : He must not know anything about MAF's?
Guest 3333 : ok, i've said all i know about them. any other ideas? Come 565, what's your idea?
Guest_409 : okay, lets discuss mass airflow sensors
Guest_565 : Could you girls please find something a bit more substantive to discuss here than the price of the candidates clothing or their haircuts...Pleas e.
Guest_2549 : it is 300,000
Bundy. : Give me a break already. Do you really think that is newsworthy? It was already noted that her dress cost $3000.00.....get a grip on reality. Are you going to itemize the cost of all her accessories, including underwear too?
Guest 3333 : who confused it? The gist of the story was that the entire outfit cost $300,000 -- not just the dress.
Bundy. : I am shocked that someone would confuse $3000.00 with $300,000.00.
easterner : «link»
easterner : oh for goodness' sake; here I was, foolishly buying the rumor that McCain's dress cost 300,000...actual ly, it is just an ESTIMATE of her dress (3,000) and all the jewelry (not all purchased for the event), shoes, etc, is estimated to cost.
Guest_96 : I heard Hillary pays about that for those sexy pantsuits
Guest 3333 : I meant identify with the people, not just identify the people.
Guest 3333 : don't the candidates both want to identify the people? I'm sorry, but spending that much money on one outfit certainly does not identify with this person or any others that I know
Guest_Gato : And she may have had the jewelry for some time. I didn't see where she bought it recently just for that night. Like Bundy said, "So what?"
Guest_Gato : Maybe some of it was Cindy's tax stimulus check and she was just doing what we were supposed to do. Spend it.
Bundy. : I want that job
Joe Eagle : That's one thing I like I liked a bit about Ross Perot (sp?) He at least was willing to cut into crazy programs (like the $80,000 a year tea tasting job that started over 100 years ago)
Joe Eagle : I think both sides are very guilty of crazy spending!
Joe Eagle : And we wonder why they can't get the national spending under control.
Bundy. : I don't know the source
Bundy. : I asked that question in the Palin post.
Joe Eagle : One beef I have with all politicians is that they seem to spend $$$$$$$ on such lavish things that are completely unnecessary.
Joe Eagle : Did the article say where th funds came from?
Bundy. : True. However, she is wealthy enough to afford this (if indeed it happened).....re member, she has 8 houses!!!
Joe Eagle : I wonder if any of this comes from political donations - if I had donated to McCain camp. I'd be a little frustrated if I'd had known that much money had been spent on an outfit for a single night.
Joe Eagle : If it is completely her funds, she must be one wealthy woman - (or maybe she views it as an investment.)
Joe Eagle : Probably more than both your and my salaries put together!
Bundy. : So what? If she wants to spend that amount of money that is her choice. Now, that would be a different story if public funds were ever used. Kind of like Obama and the DNC spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to rent Invesco field and all the props (fireworks, music, etc.....for their shindig.....)
Guest 3333 : I just read where Cindy McCain spent over $300,000 for her opening night outfit at the RNC. That is several year's of my salary.
Guest_Narrator : Blinding laser blasts shatter the darkness, the sound of screams ring out, then silence.
Guest_SandDevil : Aiyee, he's on to our scheme! The fake Cat Droid has failed! Run!!
Guest_ObiWanCatobi : (something's not right here....)
Guest_ObiWanCatobi : Don't be ridiculous, Cat Droid. No one can do what you suggest.
Guest_Cat Droid : Whirr, click! Want me to stun her and bring her to you, Catobi?
Guest_ObiWanCatobi : Now there's a name I haven't seen for a long time....
Guest_Gato : easterner's last comments in the CB are funny! Purrs to easterner from Gato!
Guest_Gato : Meow
Guest_T-Boone : Here's the link off Ch 3's website «link»
Guest_T-Boone : a co. in shelley is selling personal windmills to power your home with. As long as you have at least a half acre of property, for around 15K one could be yours. (they say it'll pay for itself in 8-10 years) not a very good incentive
Guest_007 : It's a blog, it's not a term paper! geez
Guest_007 : j/k
Guest_007 : Its just SO frustrating isn't it??
Guest 0000 : I wish people would proof read their articles, live chats and comments before posting.
Guest_007 : lol
easterner :
easterner : oh, I just meant to say ditto. . . ha
easterner : LOL, oops, my bad. . . .:)
Guest_007 : kinda like "my bad". Used too often.
Guest_88 : no smileys or laughing out loud abbreviations people. you might offend boomer and his perfect writing skills.
Guest_007 : Best of luck to nemesis, but I'm sure she'll be back after a short hiatus. On a lighter note, looks to be a great Friday!!
Guest_007 : Some have come back under different identities and others resume under their same names. I think it's good for everyone to take a break from time to time if only to get out of the "circle of doom" that is political talk.
Guest_007 : We've all voiced our opinion and at times felt like leaving, which some of us have. However, being the fun site it is we (& those that have previously left) always find our way back.
Guest_3902 : Maybe this site is experiencing major overhaul. Either way, it's too bad the posters I enjoy reading, agree or not, have left.
Guest_3902 : I have seen some of the most even-tempered, thoughtful and respectful users leave, and the "dead weight" someone referred to stay here and get in everyone's faces constantly.
Guest_3902 : I suppose you would be disappointed in a person who left a bad relationship too. Sometimes we leave in life what isn't healthy or productive. Comparing it to toys is not even in the same ballpark.
Guest 3333 : I see nothing wrong with strong opinions. At least the people are not namby pamby. We can't always roll over and not let our opinion be known.
Joe Eagle : I do agree with Nemisis that there has been very heavy and heated in the political discussions area recently - but I have to remind myself the elections are just around the corner.
Joe Eagle : I think Nemesis was tired of all the political talk. We have some very strong opinions on this site (which I love) and some great debates. Some enjoy the debates, others dont.
boomer : Why not save it until after the election? If you all want to change some minds, get out of the house and hit the street. Go get someone registered.
boomer : Time for the politickin' to stop for a while. We can all bicker forever, but no one is changing opinions.
Guest_1592 : I don't think that's it at all. S/he posted in the McCain's pick thread, and I think s/he's just tired of all the nonense and it's not making her/him happy any longer. I respect her/his decision to do what's best for her/himself. And if being here isn't it, then it's the right choice to move on.
