Are you sure it's worms??? If you're in a place with significant snow, it
can be caused by frost heaving.

Worms leave dirt from their excavations outside their holes. I
experience them when walking barefoot in the yard. The little dried piles
make indentations in the soles making you wish you had your shoes on.
I tolerate the piles knowing that the worms are aerating for free.

Not the kind of worms you have Kanter. He's not draggin' his ass around
the yard like you do.

You kids really make yourselves look bad with all this sort of talk.
NOBODY is impressed and we just wish you would either straighten up or
go away.

Q. what's wrong with top posting

Eric 13-07-2005 03:38 AM

Yeh if all you ever read is the very last post! But if you read them as they
are posted then top posting is nice and makes it easy to follow the whole
thread. ie: go read the previous post in this thread then read this.
See????

Top to bottom. Bottom to top. What's the difference, as long as everybody
follows the standard.

And what people like Eric forget is that the world didn't begin the day they
went online and decided to top post.

And if everyone had the courtesy to follow the standard, this thread could
make sense. Instead, who can tell who's responding to what?

He gets all cranky when anyone suggests a possibility that falls outside his
narrow realm of thinking. He likes to just sit on his rock like a lizard
warming itself.

No, he's just someone else that thinks people like you are idiots.

That's not surprising. There are support groups for people who suffer from
all kinds of afflictions.
