Gotta tell you that Krispy Kremes just don't do it for me. I think Dunkin Donuts is better, and just as good are Mister Donut and the local bakery.

Anyway, I had leftover Indian and Asian style food: cauliflower with onions and tomatoes and eggplant in a garlic sauce. With a dark chocolate Klondike to get me through the bill paying.

Agreed


I agree with Corgi, that's an entirely different subject from proper care.



Really, charles. Where HAVE you BEEN!? Tomorrow is here today!
I think I'm living in the past more and more. But then I find that I prefer it there and resist being dragged into the future (present). Some clothes I've kept for 20-30 years are now coming back fadishly and then gone again. I wait hopefully for the time of retroethics. Signs of impending senility I'll be dead by then! Oh Lord! I remind me of my grandmother!

If you dont like the posts from this person why read them?

Are you looking for some entertainment by posting negative stuff. Your posts are NOT amusing.

I'm not condoning any posts this person has made but, geesh, if I read something like this I ignore it and dont read any of that persons posts any more, not make an ***** of myself.

The negative, harping, attacking posts are as bad as anything I've read from this poster. Sounds like there was some kind of animal abuse at one time. That isnt something that should be dealt with on this forum. And if you are aware of more then report it. But not here. We cant do anything about it except make more negative posts. IMO. You that are doing these posts seem to enjoy the attacks. :no: what a shame.

When no one replies to this person then what do you think happens to their posts???? They drop to the bottom of the pile and dont resurface. They get bored with the whole thing and leave.

END OF STORY

So if you dont like the posts..... leave it be.... starts a new post about your breakfasts and enjoy your krispie cremes.

This morning, we're having brunch....fried potatoes, scrambled eggs, sausage links, warm biscuits with butter and strawberry jam with a nice pot of hot, fresh coffee.
The wait for a Krispy Kreme donut is worth it. They are so good. But... your brunch sounds outstanding too.

Dude! Now it wasn't exactly like the fried bananas and ice cream I remember, but YUMMY!

All I did was brown the butter, chop up the banana, give it a good dousing of cinnamon, toss a bit of sugar on and roast (I mean, it IS a George Foreman Lean Mean Roasting Machine for about 20-25 minutes.

YUMMY!!!

It's absolutely horrible looking but tasty! I'm going to start working on perfecting the recipe. I've needed a new one to work on --- I spent half the spring perfecting a Thai Green Curry/Coconut Milk dish with broccoli, chicken and other goodies --- so maybe half the summer working on this one.

YUMMMMM!!

Two times more fiber! EB also posted the same message on the Equine Forum.

Ardie, your brunch sounds fantastic, please can I come over and join you? Maybe we can get countrygrrrl to join us and bring a bunch of fried bananas and ice cream for desert. If she's busy, maybe I can round up the last of my secret stash of saskatoon berries.

I DID NOT bring it up... your's and the others lame posts on the animals getting treatments post brought it up...until THAT point I was totally not reading that person's posts... FRANKLY I DONT GIVE A DAM WHAT THIS PERSON HAS DONE....it is still not an excuse for the way you people are acting.

And you obviously are so set on following this person around and tied up in your "fun" that you dont get it

IGNORE!!!

Just like I am going to ignore you from now on.

If this person is trolling so WHAT. DONT READ the posts. DONT respond. EVERY time you respond with your stupid breakfast crap it just brings it back to the top of the boards. Should I suggest you people be banned from the site for posting obnoxious posts as well?? Think about it for a few minutes.....

are your negative, attacking posts, any better than someone posting stupid questions and comments?? NO
AND your sending a personal message is even worse. Dont message me again

and stop harassing people. If you need cheap thrills then go to the adult book store or a porn site or something. I know the net allows you to attack and abuse people with anmenity. This isnt the place for it. It just shows a persons maturity. It makes me less likely to believe, or even to ever read anything you or the others post. The fact that you sent this shows your immaturity... if you have so much aggression that you have to do this sort of attacking crap I suggest counseling or strenous exercise.

From this point on, anything you send to me will be ignored. Dont bother replying.

Stacy I might suggest the same for you... Look in the mirror dear.... attack someone else.

EB, it's obvious you don't know the whole story and you'll never know the whole story because Smith deleted a bunch of posts she made in the threads she started.

Had you known the whole story you would have known several people reported Smith to the authorities.

END OF STORY
Wrong answer. If you knew the whole story you'd know that Smith kept some of his/her/it's threads from dropping to the bottom of the pile.

If you don't like these threads why are you wasting your time reading and responding to them?

Fla Gal

Edited to ask,

EB, are you suffering from Moderater Envy or did you just run out of Prozac? With kind regards that you get your problem worked out.

eb, are you also aware that you are suggesting a ban of one of the entire forums favorite moderators? I would think that Kincora might have a bit more background on this topic, having been here so much longer than yourself and it just might not be wise to start telling her off when you absolutely do not know the background on this matter? Perhaps, your 97 posts more than qualifies you to run the forum though.

Okay. This is just too bizarre.

But I'm a faithful lurker on the equine forum. I don't have horses, but the neighbor's horses pasture on my land and I am totally fascinated by them. And there's some beautiful paints and other horses around here and everyone here but me is a cowboy and always riding around on them and I'm just crazy about the horses.

So I've lurked on that forum for months now.

And I think both Kincora and wr rock! I've learned so much from my lurking and have always found them to be helpful and knowledgeable ...

Even in the case of this Smith. And I also read Smith's posts before they got deleted and, boy ... :no: pretty sick. Pretty darned sick, even for a troll. :no:

So, here's a huge thumbs up for kincora and wr --- you're doing great work on that forum. And I see absolutely no justification for the criticism being launched at you here.

*back to lurking on the equine forum* :yeeha:

Don't be lurking, step right up and join in. I enjoy your input on the other boards and would welcome hearing more from you on "horse'. You don't have to own one to have ideas and thoughts, ya know.

Stacy, you've handled some crap over there that I would never have expected to see and you've done an awesome job, you were definately the right person for the job and you've done it with a lot of class. I stand firmly in your corner.

There we go, no breakie discussion, just some good old back patting :haha:

Hi Evil, and others "unaware".....

I TOO, had my go round with this IDIOT.. and yes.. like it or not.. that's what he/she appears to be.

I innocently answered his idiotic post in regard to animals being 'registered' etc.... seems the others were just responding HERE, in somewhat tacky fashion to ALERT the NEWER folks on here.. I'd say "THANKS" were in order...

By the way.. If you WANT to .. click his name and go read ALL of his/her posts. Pretty much tells the tale. (Unless, like the NICE folks at this forum have stated... he/she's deleted them?)

ANYWAY..

BE happy!! This IS a GREAT forum. Good sincere, helpful, and yes..even knowlegabe individuals that don't care for bored, foolish trouble makers taking advantage of thier kindhearted helpfulness... Can't say I blame em!!

Soo..... Krispy Kremes..... Mmmmmmmmmmm!!

BUT.. just for the record: YES, I think people go too far with their animals.. but NOT in the ways Smith mentioned! How about CLOTHES, special everything???? Good god! One trip to PetCo or PetSmart will really scare you to think CHILDREN dont' get treated so good!

The above is a private message I sent to Evil Bunny regarding his/her post on the Equine Forum. Very, very poor form, Evil Bunny. One just doesn't air ones private messages in public. It's on par with passing gas in Church <grin>

Thank you for your support wr, Countrygrrrl (post! we're a fun bunch for the most part), and Fla Gal. This is exactly what Smith wants to happen when she posts her drivel-get the fur flying!

I've never been to a Porn site, or an Adult bookstore...am I missing something really good? Since you are familar, can you PM about your experiences EB? (tongue firmly in cheek)

Stacy is doing her job ( and a darn fine one at that!) as a moderator for pointing out as I and other members have done that Smith is bad news! He/she throws raw meat out ( inflammatory topics) sets back and sees what innocent member will take the bait. I suspect that he must be laughing his @$$ off at the discord his newest thread has caused.
Hang in there Stacy!!!

Quite honestly I think it's worse than passing gas in Church. Her netiquette and manners leave a lot to be desired. I agree, very, very poor form on EB's part. Quite a display of immaturity. Pity.

Thanks for the warning EB. It lets us know how far we can trust you and your judgement. :no:

Just wondering here sounds like EB is either related to Smith or is a very good friend trying to step up to bat for the troll.

It's pretty sad when a moderator condones attacking people. A good job?? A good job would to be to report this person and have their posts deleted, not continue to post and bring them up to the top.

If anyone has a clue...or could read what I posted I have NOT condoned what this person has posted....I am objecting to YOUR tactics. Including the message sent to me and the entire reason that was posted. I dont take to abuse very well.

Your snide remarks and slams of me have been very uncalled for. I can see that you all are the types who have the mob mentality. Hey this is fun to attack people.

Yep I am sure Smith is having fun watching you guys attack me instead of him/her. Can you look at what you are doing and figure this out? I'm not the one you need to be fighting with here.

If an expert on here thinks this is the way to deal with something then perhaps this site isnt the friendly helpful, "community" type place it is portrayed to be. Perhaps it should be renamed to "our gang" and you guys can be the only ones here.

Flame away all you want because I wont be reading this post again. I am sure you guys will still enjoy your "cough" witty slams. Have fun...and Sunday is only one day away...don't forget to ask for forgiveness for your hatefulness.

Just as a casual observer, I would say Smith is the most successful troll I've seen on any board in a long time!
