That's what I'm running now as well. Since they put up new servers it's not too bad.

Are you using a different version of Google than I?

There are *NO* posts with "PENMART01" as tha author, and the last post with "PENMART" as author is
May 15, 1996.

Remember, Google is your friend, but you *do* have to use it.

okie-dokie! ;-)

I had a house full of women doing crafts tonight. Threw myself together some steak, eggs, and
homefries. I'd forgotten that breakfast for dinner is actually pretty good!

Michael,

Tallulah was a first cousin of my father. The rare few times I had the opportunity to be in private
company with her and family, it was really a hoot!

I also think he's trolling. But to answer your rhetorical question, stupid people often quote
Sheldon's obscene or abusive messages in totality when they reply, and the reply gets archived
in google.

Wayne, my father's family is from Winston County AL and, IIRC, Tallulah and her senator father were
also from Winston County - Bankhead Nat'l Forest is named after him, I do believe. Small world.

Prat? Must be short for "immature". I'm not familiar with it being used as a noun, though, so "prat"
could mean "prattle" to the rest of us.

Prattle <aka: BABBLE>: to utter or make meaningless sounds suggestive of the chatter of (very
small) children.

Maybe he was testing you... yeahhh, that's it <Barb>.

Ahem, I was testing Barb with my grammar usage in a different thread. Just wanted to see if she
*were* awake or not. LOL!

It really is a small world, Terry. My father's family was originally from Cullman County which I
believe is adjacent to Winston County. They later moved to Birmingham then, later still, moved on to
NE Mississippi. The senator was quite a figure in AL in his day. Many local stories.

Learn how to use your Killfile and jump in. The group has a lot of pretty good ideas and even some
recipes. A word of warning however, if you get insulted easily, skip this one.
