THANK YOU RB!!

Post by Guinevere »

As of today, nine refugees from Le Chat have successfully registered at Plan B. "Successful" meaning, they register, their registration gets lost among the spam bots, they post to me on Le Chat, I PM RB, she searches them out and approves them, and the I post back on Le Chat letting them know they're good to go.

All your work in helping our old/new friends make the jump over here is truly appreciated, lady.

Beers are on me!

Kind of her indeed. Are there more to come or can we raise the draw bridge?

I think you should leave the drawbridge down for now.  Methuselah from the old Car Talk board apparently is involved in a Facebook-based group with some of the old-timers.  He sent messages to some of us inviting us to the Facebook site; but since there are those (like yours truly) who refuse to get trapped in the cesspool/quicksand pit that Facebook can be we duly told him and his cohorts about this place.  So there may be some old ex-pats and trickle-ins coming from there as well.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

T'would be grand indeed if they did come because we need new blood here, even if it is all Geritol fortified blood.

Thanks Guin happy to help :D
If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you may have misjudged the situation.

Again I ask, "Have they been properly vetted? Anyone check their past facebook postings? Are they on the no fly list? Has any of their neighbors bought guns for them? Does their moms know what they are up to?".

I plan on taking them all to the vet at their earliest inconvenience.

Yes! All of the LCH immigrants should be required to have at least two vaccinations. One is for the Locaccocol virus and the other for the Dipquadtheria. The Locaccocol vaccine (for women only) is to stop a person from blaming all of her problems on someone else while turning every thread into one about herself. The Dipquadtheria shot can kill the virus that causes a big fat-assed liar to claim to have an important government job and believing that Van Halen is the most influential guitarist ever in the world.

I've had all of my vaccines and other than feeling a bit autistic, I'm just fine.

Many many thanks to R-B and Daisy, without them this place would not function at all.

I call BS on any gender-specific vaccines - those behaviors are equally represented among men who post online!

Very true...

And as you have demonstrated by your absence over the past several weeks, without you...

this place nevertheless functions quite well... :nana

They haven't perfected the Locacoccal vaccine for men yet. In sample dosages they have used on men it has made them less needy but it also turned them gay. Until they isolate and remove the ingredient that makes them gay they're just giving that vaccine to women.

I can think of a male poster in rather desperate need of that vaccine, and if becoming gay is a consequence then it would have the added benefit of broadening his choice of reading material outside of the Murdoch family of publications.

I have spent the last several years developing an immunity to dipquadtheria.

I have been properly vetted.

I've been to one vet after another.

Even tho I played Just a Dog in last week's show, most say I'm more of a cat. :?

I took my spotted cat, Spotted Cat, to the vet just a couple of weeks ago. Does that count?

I categorically reject that kit and caboodle as a reasonable substitution. Purrhaps you should just get in the carrier on the appointed day.
