obviously, it doesn't rain enough.

:-)) I had to smile at that one.

i did too, but i was worried you wouldn't :-)

I have the worst most warped sensed of humour you could ever find. It
has always caused me a LOT of troulbe because I can see humour in just
about any isaster or misfortune known to God or man.

Sydney has been getting lovely lots
of rain. Not in the catchment of course but over many of the
burbs.

my neighbour 2 doors down (i.e. about 1.5km away ;-) rents a
catchment
property. sydney catchment is actually huge. IT IS EATING
AUSTRALIA!!! while
it's true that most of the rain happens on that side of the
mountains, i can
tell you for a fact it's raining in the catchment RIGHT NOW.
/looks again
yes.

About bloody time. It's missed it soooooo many times.

hunt so hard to figure out where you're headed in all that
verbage.

my babble's "verbiage", actually. g

Glad you recognise it as such.

that i do (i hope you don't think i didn't know that i babble). but
mainly,
i'm just an excellent speller g

I used to be before I started using computers. Now I have to write a
word by longhand if I want to know if it's right. Sodding keyboards.

decide you're a persnickety old grumblebum, because that's most
likely just
as wrong.

Both views can be right but it depends ont he ocassion. Like most
people.

what - sometimes you really are a cheerful young woman & other times
you
really are a grumpy old man?!!

So only old men are grumblebums? How odd. But usenet is such an odd
beast. I've been mistaken for being an American, a black American, a
man, a woman and many other things besides. It's all in the eyes of
the beholder and depends so much on what one writes. But I can be
lots of thing too at different times in terms of personality (as can
anyone).

Well it does make for difficult reading. It's called an "eye
jag".
That means that writing in such an unaccepted style is hard for
the
reader to read fluently.

mm, people say that. then later on they say they got used to it.

I never have.

i can't say
i'm bothered how they feel, really.

Yes.

I can understand why you do it

why do i do it?

It's easy (or lazy depending on one's perspective).

but I can't type and I still make the
effort because I know how hard it is to read uncapitalised and
unpunctuated writing.

tch! i punctuate. you don't have to exaggerate.

Well you do use full stops, but beyond that............

are we finished yet?

Don't tell me you are going to turn chicken on me!

no. i'm bored! i'm not taking you seriously! it's ridiculous! it's
over!

Over? Then why reply???????

However, you'll be pleased to know that I can actually type just as
fast
with capitals. There you are. Don't expect to see it again any time
soon
though - it's just a pre-Christmas special.

Pity. So much easy to read.

salut!

Merry Xmas!
