Nate: Ugh, what an awful day. My aunt is in town, and I let her dog out while she was in Annapolis. Turn around to grab the leash, and the dog bolts. Found her four hours later thankfully, but man could that runt run.


User avatar
Mizzle: Whoa, dar. Good thing you found the dog, though. ;)

Snoink: Next time, offer jerky. The dog will not be able to resist.

Snoink: Also, in here:

"The new max is 3350 reviews, with five orange stars. I dare anyone to even try to get that much."

THIS SOUNDS LIKE A CHALLENGE.


User avatar
Nate: Face it Snoink, you're beyond your years! You'll never make it! I scoff at your feeble, futile efforts.

Snoink: ONE MORE POST AND YOU'LL GET 8000.

Just so you know. ;)





User avatar
Nate: So I just did a spot-check of the Lit forums. My findings? There is nothing to review! Come on, we need short stories and poems people!

GryphonFledgling: That actually makes me happy beyond belief...

And makes me want to write something.

Nate: To all the future (and present) Aunts, Uncles, and Parents out there: Never show a two year old boy Youtube videos of trains. You will never do anything else.


User avatar
ladypurple: Good thing my little cousin doesn't like trains. I'm safe.

Rosey Unicorn: As one of those kids who once upon a time loved trains, I agree.

Snoink: So! I was reading this absolutelywonderfulohmygosh novel that would KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF. Anyway, there was this guy, right? His name is Cal and he is, of course, tan and extremely muscular. Because, you know, all guys named Cal are this way. Anyway, he meets this girl, who he subsequently hates, but he feels this attraction for anyway... so much so that whenever they look at each other, they SHIMMER. Yes, that is the exact word used. I'm a third through the book and the author's already used that word twice.

Anyway, this guy has a past, and I wondered if you could relate to him. Apparently, he was once a lawyer, but then he found Christ, so he decided to quit the law firm (due to guilt, of course) and start up an Amish furniture shop. And, for some reason, he is a master carpenter who is able to do all sorts of these things... plus, you know, be hunky and muscular.

With that said, how many carpentry classes are you taking?

Nate: Indeed, being a Christian and being a lawyer is very incompatible! Representing people against monied interests as they navigate through the byzantine federal tax laws is clearly an evil. I'm not taking any carpentry classes currently, but as I'm attending a Catholic law school, I suppose I should start! As a Catholic, the guilt runs strong and surely I cannot last long.

Meshugenah: Oy, Nate! I got the thing that did the thing, but I never even *saw* the thing that did the thing. So did you mean the first thing, or that thing? Because that thing, well. You know. It's the thing.


User avatar
Nate: I meant the thing that does the thing when you go over there to that thing, duh! But does it do all the things you wanted the thing to do?
Sat Sep 04, 2010 3:33 am

User avatar
Meshugenah: Oooh, that thing. So far, it's doing most of the things I want it to do, but it's having some issues with thing one and thing two (because it couldn't be an operator error. Oh no!). Any suggestions? Other than letter the thing do that thing it does. That most certainly did not work.

Nate: 7.4 earthquake hit Christchurch, NZ less than an hour ago. Hope all the YWSers from there and their families are ok.


User avatar
Snoink: That's awful.

Mizzle: How sad. Hope everyone is okay, not just our YWS-ers.
