first i switched to another account becasue of that snafu with my e-mail,
(yeah, tim, the one where i was soliciting funds :-} ), then i had trouble
sending e-mail through it, so i did switch to a yahoo account - but no
longer had walt's e-mail addy.


That makes sense. Errrrr, not having Walt's email versus soliciting
funds..... g


damn warren, get out of my head- that's just scary!! BSEG


Hmmmmm, so many possibilities with that one........

i was with ya up to there. as a matter of fact, i pinged wally with some
hesitation, figuring i would probably hear about. i just wanted him to know
i was sending a freind of mine out his way, particularly since i have
requested a favor of this fella while he is there.


Dat's coo. I haven't been following ROFF that closely for the past few
months and basically had been seeing a lot of "pings" and a few
"complaints" when I did browse ROFF's meager offerings so thought I
would attempt to explain.

no- you can just answer the last e-mail i sent you- smart ass ;-))


I've been busier than a three peckered rabbit during breeding season
between work, moving, my daughter, company, remodeling the drift boat,
etc. Hell, I haven't even sent the email I was intending to send to Tom
Brown when I pinged him! :-(

i didn't feel like he was trying to be a dick, i just responded in the same
(as i interpreted it) tongue in cheek form in which he responded to my
post - it wasn't meant to be confrontational. *ya'll must have missed my
smilie*.


While your smile adds considerably to this place, I was unable to
interpret it because I was unaware of the relationship between you and
Tim. But it is in writing now.....

i think it's only been a few in the past couple of weeks, (i think)


Hell, half the time I don't even know what the date is....

Somebody else: What's the date today?

Me: September?????

no, that's not the reason i gave for pinging him, the reason i gave is that
my mail/ server has been ****ed up.


Freakin' newbies...... g

i can dig it warren.


Damn hippy...... BSEG

i didn't mean to be annoying with pings, nor has
"pinging" been something i have a "history" of doing on roff. it's just
been a few as of late related to my server issues-


Well **** me if I was wrong!.!.!.!.!. g

by the way, i sent you a note on my "newest" yahoo account the other day.
did you get it?


Yes I did receive it. Between work, moving, being lazy, etc I haven't
gotten around to doing many of the things that I have been meaning to do
lately..... Realizing just how lazy I have been on my only day off has
motivated me to get my ass in gear though. Time to go run some errands
then pick up my daughter, run some more errands, unpack more crap, go
pick up a few more boxes and get this place cleaned up. I'll drop you a
line later tonight once I get my daughter to sleep.

Thanks for "pointing this out". Your use of bandwidth is far superior. G

For the record, I am not concerned about bandwidth. Anyone who reads roff is
wasting it anyway. ;-)

I'm not sure why, but ever since I began reading ROFF, the band around my width has
increased in size?

I never figure it's a waste of bandwidth to inform (nicely, if I like
them) someone that they're doing some thing that's annoying (if that's
not their intention. Hard to tell about that on ROFF sometimes) and
may make them look foolish. It was a naive error. It's corrected
now. I think it was pretty nice of him.

How's that for PC, damnit?
