So frustrating being a Standard member and having your communication options removed 1 1. We used to be able to read and respond to e- messages but no more and we could chat with people on a limited basis but again gone. I been a member before and don't feel like going that route again. But if I don't then I might as well just leave. It's like they are systematically forcing us to . SO uncool at least in my humble - or not - opinion.

Wow, look at all the fun I'm having around here.
It really sucks to be a standard member ........ then again it sucked to be a paying member as well.
Gotta wonder if anybody really gets lucky here or if it's justa load of BS to keep us trying to land the horny one.
Any thoughts on twats?

A small boy is sent to bed by his father. Five minutes later came the plaintiff appeal, "Da-ad."
"What?"
"I'm thirsty. Can you bring me a drink of water?"
"No. You had your chance. Lights out."
Five minutes later, another plea, "Da-aaaad."
"What?"
"I'm thirsty. Can I have a drink of water?"
"I told you no! If you ask again, I'll have to spank you!"
Five minutes later, the small boy again issued the plea, "Daaaa-aaaad."
"What?"
"When you come in here to spank me , can you please bring me a drink of water?"

Here are the answers to the questions in my previous post.
1) Las Vegas. Must be the stress of winning all that money or,
more likely, losing it. This also happens to be the city with
the most unlisted AND the most churches.
2) 39 times.
3) Alfred Hitchcock.
4) The teacher thought that she was to quiet and shy.
5) The $64,000.00 Question.
6) The Olive after his long-time girlfriend.
7) The Stanley Cup.
 It's the upper front part of the shoe.
9) The Chiffons.
10) Norway.
11) Becuase Gehrig was a lefty and Cooper a righty. Cooper tried
batting and fielding left for the part but looked too awkward.
So they filmed him doing those things right-handed and then the
negative was reversed to make it look like he was playing left.
And then, of course New York was no longer backward.
12) Simple, succulant, usually single-pitted fruit, such as plums,
apricots, peaches, cherries, almonds and olives.
13) Louisbourg
14) Wisconsin, West Virginia, Wyoming and Washington
15) Hall of Fame linebacker Dick Butkus, who helped the Chicago
Bears earn the title "Monsters of the Midway" in the late 1960s
and early 1970s.
16) A tax increase of course.
17) Johnny Horton's The Battle of New Orleans, which celebrated
the smashing defeat of the British by American troops led by
Andrew Jackson in 1815.
1 John Wayne in Seven Sinners (1940) and The Spoilers (1942).
19) J.A. Bombardier invented it. He didn't call it a Ski-Doo - as
many of us would have guessed - he originally called it a Ski-
Dog.
So, be honest now, how did you do? Personally I think that I got 9 right. Could have been better, but not too bad I figure.

Someone comes up with a great idea in a meeting and then everyone comes up with reasons why it won't work. Namely:
* We've never done that before.
* Nobody has ever done it.
* It has never been tried before.
* We tried it before.
* Another company tried it before.
* We've been doing it this way for 25 years.
* It won't work in a small company.
* It won't work in a large company.
* It won't work in our company.
* Why change? It's working OK.
* The boss will never buy it.
* It needs further investigation.
* Our competitors are not doing it.
* It's too much trouble to change.
* Our company is different.
* The ad department says that it can't be done.
* The sales department says that ot can't be sold.
* The service department won't like it.
* The janitor says that it can't be done.
Any of the above sound familiar?
Makes you wonder how on God's green Earth people stay in business doesn't it?
Merry Christmas one and All !!

Ok, Ok. Just a tad late with these, but hey better late than never right? Anyway here goes.
November 22, 1718 - Off the coast of North Carolina, Blackbeard the pirate was killed in a battle by a boarding party of British sailors, ending his reign of terror in the Caribbean.
November 24, 1971 - After collecting a ransom pay-out of about
$200,000.00, D.B. Cooper donned a parachute, leaped out of the rear stairway of the airplane he had hi-jacked over the U.S. Pacific Northwest and disappeared. He has not been seen since, nor has any of the money been recovered ( unless you count tonight's episode of NUMB3RS ). So, he died in the parachute jump? He got away with it? Perhaps we'll never know, but it's certainly the stuff of urban legends.

A friend of mine suggested this a little while back. He wants to petition the eleavtor manufacturing companies to have only 2 Muzak songs played in ALL elevators. One for going up & one for going down of course.
The song for going up is, what else ...... "Stairway To Heaven".
The song for going down is ....... "Highway To Hell".
Well, what do you think? I'm sure that there are more ideas for both categories. Suggestions anybody???

Oct. 1, 1883 - Canada's first medical school for women opened, thanks largely to the efforts of Dr. Emily Stowe. The Toronto Woman's Medical College was createrd to provide female stiudents the opportunity to train without the discrimination and abuse they had experienced in facilities open to both sexes. The school later changed it's name to the Ontario Medical College for Women.
Oct. 2, 1883 - Another women's medical college opened in Kingston, due to the hard word work and determination of Dr. Jennie Trout.
Oct. 4, 1957 - The Soviet spacecraft Sputnik 1 became the first artificial satellite to orbit the Earth. It was about the size of a basketball and weighed 84 kg. Equuiped with two radio transmitters and four long antennas the broadcast a constant beep, it circled the Earth for 21 days. Sputnik's launch stunned the world. It hearlded the "Space Age", created an identity crisi in the United States, led to the creation of NASA and began the race between the world's two superpowers to place a human on the moon.
Oct. 5, 1969 - The first episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus was broadcast on the BBC. Will we ever get tired of the re-runs?

Wow, seems like just the other day it was the Labour Day long weekend. And now November is just around the corner. Where has the time gone?
So, it would appear that October was a busy month in History. I'll have to pop back and post some of the monumentous happens in October later. Interesting to read and see just what occurred over time in each month.
