Lisa!, could you please write out your words? I can't even begin to guess what you're talking about when you only type one letter of a word.
Not important because I can't understand if you're on! :biggrin: h:hour/m:minute(min)/s:second(sec) o:)

You mean because I'm in invisible mode? Are you still upset about that? It's fun sneaking up on people. For just $25/year, that's only slightly more than $2/month, you too can be a contributor and be invisible. :biggrin:

Bother us? Nah, we'd have to understand you first. :biggrin: :smile: Once we get the abbreviations translated, it's okay. Well, there is that confusing exclamation point in your name that makes it really difficult to figure out how to punctuate sentences when we're talking to you, and I always feel like I'm yelling at you when I say your name with that exclamation point at the end. :-p

Nope, just confuses me. If I can't sort it out, I just skip over it unless I think you're replying to me, then I try to get you to clarify. Why? Do you do it on purpose? I assumed you're accustomed to IM chatting and have abbreviations that make sense to you but aren't familiar to those of us who still type complete sentences in IM.

He needs to be 0.6 years older. Hmm...by now it's probably more like 0.5 years older. Pogo, what month is your birthday? Edit: nevermind, I looked it up in your profile. You only have about 4 months to go until you're 17.6. :biggrin: We'll throw a really big un-birthday bash for you when that happens.

It's not called mooching, it's called dating. :-p
Buying a lady a drink is always a good idea.
Well unless she's under age then that could be a very bad idea.

Well, usually they just carry it out on a tray, but okay; just hold still while they carry you, I don't want my drink spilled by the time it gets to the table. :biggrin:

Also known by its scientific name as Brewnog's condensate -- requires rare tropical ingredients, the right fermentation process, and just condensed at just the right time and temperature.

He's also working on Brewnog's Nuc-brew, which has a bit of an after-kick (or prehaps afterburn) to it. :wink:
