Yes we did.

How are you and how is your hubby feeling?

I assume he is home from the hospital.

Annabel... if your intent is good, your phrasing has little significant, and if your intent is bad, your phrasing has little significance. Examples:

You're incredibly great = good
You're fucking great = good

You're a stupid homosexual = bad
You're a fucking dyke = bad

Same diff, really.

Is it just me, or is there no way to find a post in these long threads? There's no search-within-thread.

seebs, if you know who posted it you can search on their posts and then look through the list for the one you're thinking of. That might work.

Seebs... FYI - I figured out where I had read those new GA rules. It was in the News and current event forums. I KNEW I had read that message or one very similar to it a few weeks ago!

Let's hear it for fucking great people, as opposed to people great at fucking, which is quite another matter altogether, although I'm sure they're worthy of praise as well. :P
