I would have though the word was "flout" not flog. But I should talk:
somebody will to flout me with a wench. ...or flog me with one. That might be fun, though probably not for the wench. I have adjusted my header so my comments are only going to this newsgroup alone (rec.gardens.orchids), rather then being cross-posted to four newsgroups simultaneously. Even in this newsgroup some of us are more aware then others of how long and deep the history of some participants go. But I know that there must be lots of people in rec.gardens who don't have any idea where any of this is coming from. When they say, "not here please" they are not speaking of "Here" And you have to forgive some of us for not joining in often enough to make it look like we are participating. Believe me there are only so many orchid questions and answers and comments and even this flare-up is a repeat to some of us. But to those of you for whom all of this is new: have fun. If I have to I will squeeze into my old purple spandex wrestling leotard and step into the ring with you orchid newsgroup yearlings but I assure you that I have grown considerably larger and though it may be made of a highly stretchable fabric, the resulting explosion from a rip probably won't be as humorous as it promises to be at first glance. I know it is possible that nobody but me cares what my opinion is but I share it anyway (if somewhat obscurely) because I like to type. And, yes, I know what I am smoking isn't doing me any good either. I know that if I am not having fun in the flames here I am at a disadvantage and should get out fast. I also know that when I get tired of the non-orchid related subject matter being discussed I have filters that can make it disappear and when I turn them on it will seem as if I am gone but really it will be you all who are gone. In the mean time, in case I need it, I am going to go shake out the wresling leotard and give it a good once over. If it should explode I don't want nobody hit in the eye with a moth ball. If you are reading this, you have read too far. |

Since I think some apologies are called for, I will start:
My apologies to rec.gardens and alt.binaries.pictures.gardens for continuing this thread in all four groups -- I did not realize until a moment ago that this thread went to 4 groups. Most of the participants thus far have been regulars in rec.gardens.orchids and alt.binaries.pictures.orchids (but I don't know how many or how few of us hang in the other groups as well). Since I do not frequent the other groups, I would not have replied to all groups if I had realized before that all four groups were receiving this thread. This is my last post to this thread.

If you are reading this, you have read too far. Sounds like we have a new generation going to the war. Loved reading to this point. It was well worth a good laugh. For the 'yearlings' not all of us Old Timers answer as many questions as we used to. But then you don't always comment when we do post. So we let you answer and only pop up when it is new, interesting, or someone has taken a header into the swamp and no one has rescued them. I for one wish Prem would learn not to cross post to the world. He never posts to less than 2 newsgroups at a time. SuE http://orchids.legolas.org/gallery/albums.php |

*grin* Sorry, I tend to type the way I speak when I'm ticked off, and I was avoiding using "a*ses". It was certainly better than "Trundle your buns." J. Del Col |
