Poofing to pout is no fun. Too quiet. Especially if no one misses you!
Sorry, Rick, like it or not, I'm back. you'll have to take those Poofs on account!
Cute, Jabber. Don't encourage him!

On account of what?
You guys are pretty funny tonight...I think 
Ok, So go to www.poofpal.com and make a withdrawal next time you want me to go away!
(grin)
So (she says, diplomatically changing the subject) can somebody remind me what the job of the Attorney General is? Isn't he in charge of "federal criminal investigation and enforcement"? And so *why* is he in the Pacific Rim Countries, telling them they need to increase their cooperation in our war on terrorism? Since when is that in the purvue of federal criminal investigation and enforcement? I don't get it.
Ok, never mind, WAY to serious for a Wednesday night (or Thursday morning, in Lexie's case!)

Oh, NO, Lexie, I would NEVER say such a thing...
at least, not until you tell me what a "slyber" is... another aussie-ism?
Well back in the ole MSN chat days...you used to get freaky blokes (kinda like jabber ) that would ask if you would like to "cyber" (I gather you know what that is?), then MSN filter decided you couldnt say that, so it became "slyber"

Oh, yeah, I'm familiar with "cybering"...
Mainly because my ex-hubby used to do it. Probably still does. When "virtual" became "reality", "hubby" became "ex".
No objections to the principle, though!

Tee-hee! Well put! I don't often post in this particular thread, but this post was cute!
Wish you would, chatter... we can always use "fresh meat"! (grin)
Good night lady(?).
Who, me?
Flattered, I think.
Good night, thanks for the fun!

Jabber,
You come up with some of the funniest lines. You and Lexie and Falcon Gal have the best "outlook" on this forum. You guys always have great lines/comebacks/wit/posts.

Never think that. If I left a reply everytime you gave me a grin, or a chuckle, I'd be spending even more time on the forum. I try to save my congrats for the times that I laugh so hard I pass a kidney-stone. I'm talking loud-laughing that causes everyone else around to raise their heads (and sometimes one of them starts laughing at my laughing - I'm being serious, about something humorous).
Rick posted: Have you seriously considered therapy? 
Yeah, me neither!
The goofy thing about bulletin board/forum humor is that while some of it is sound-bite size -- you can read a single post and "get it", other humor builds through a thread and you almost have to read the whole thread to "get it". That's no help when somebody asks you "What's so funny?", and you realize for them to have any hope of understanding what you're laughing at is page back 10 screens and let them start reading! They, of course, don't have the time to go prospecting for a laugh, so you're left feeling sort of foolish. "Uh, I don't know!" with a sheepish grin! Yep, and now they REALLY think you're WEIRD!

One of the following 4 posts is the shortest post on this forum (it's not much, but it's something).
Yes, Rick, you've made your point...

I don't want anyone "seeing semi-disguised snide non-sequiturs everywhere", so best not to respond.

Oh, no, Rick, don't let ME inhibit you! I'm over it.
please, honor me with your response. Else I'll just have to go back to teasing you.
