The longest thread ever

I wouldn't do number 1 on DD's list...

What, no lappy for a week??? Not a chance. I think I'd get the shakes or something. Tho I have no clue what internet access will look like...

[Lavabe]

But Dude, you're Lavabe! Spanarkel (sparnarkel?) is only 6'5", Firth a dinky 6'1.5"!

"You don't keep score? Then how do you compare yourself to other golfers?" "By Height."

Jim Spanarkel

Yes DA, but I don't play basketball, I don't golf, and I don't act in Victorian period pieces. My fate is sealed.

But hey, at least I was dude-ed.
Cheers,
Lavabe

Go cold turkey, the only chance I have...

I have heard that Lavabe does it by the length of his driver...

Please, Pride and Prejudice is Regency! (It's set in 1812. I've read the book probably 70 times.) I will concede Colin Firth to your wife if she'll let me have Clooney.

I have run out of things to say.

That sentence was incorrect, the first clause of this sentence is correct, and the third clause is not.

[wilson]

That sentence was incorrect, the first clause of this sentence is correct, and the third clause is not.

The sentence was also dangerous. How can we be expected to carry the LTE on without the guidance of our founder?

There's always yogurt!

Isn't that from Forrest Gump, or am I remembering something incorrectly? I suppose it's possible I am remembering this incorrectly, it's been awhile since I saw the movie.

The correct Gump quote would be, "That's all I have to say about that."
That's all I have to say about that.

[TillyGalore]

The correct Gump quote would be, "That's all I have to say about that."
That's all I have to say about that.

I figured a whipper-snapper* would set me straight. Though I figured it would be BillyBreen. Billy, you're slacking.

Wilson, I mean that will love and respect.

OK, so I post on some other message boards, sometimes. I know, I can't help it. One of them is for playwrights. One of the threads was a rhymes with witch session about why can't actors/directors just perform the lines as written instead of trying to make changes, blah, blah, blah. Me? There are always 2-3 lines in my script that I truly care about, the rest of them, as long as you don't change the inherent meaning of the dialog, I welcome some experimentation. (And I steal the good stuff.) Anyway, after several rounds of back and forth I chimed in with this:

Oh that this too too solid flesh would melt.
Damn it Burbage, I wrote sullied.

I'm ashamed to say I don't think any of my fellow playwrights got the joke. Do you?

[Lavabe]

There's always yogurt!

Oh geez ... I get 20 minutes of downtime while grading today, and there you go again, raising THAT thread topic.

What happened with the low-sugar yogurt discussion? Last I recalled, Greek yogurt was the yogurt of choice.

Cheers,

Hamlet? Shakespearean editing? Is it solid flesh or sullied flesh? Isn't google wonderful!

For fear of retribution, I dare not dive too deep into the yogurt. I'm into whole foods now: meats, fishes, fruits, veggies. Much like a caveman.

[Bostondevil]

I don't really like yogurt. And I never eat the frozen stuff, I mean, why not just have ice cream?

[kmspeaks]

Yougurt is a staple in this college kid's diet. It's a nice change up from cereal when you can't find any hot food that looks edible.

Yogurt with granola mixed in is also delectable. Fish80, as for "diving into yogurt," well...that's just gross.

[Bostondevil]

That Go-Gurt stuff that my kids eat? Yuck.
