Have you mastered the espresso machine variables?

Peter is 74% responsible for what has happened here..

Just saying...

[staylor]

I also heard Peter is responsible for the other 26%.

[milowebailey]

That would make Peter one of the boyz!  There is a positive side to this

Word is that Peter loves to get down and dirty.

As much as I'd like to take 100% of the credit, alas, I cannot. 

The hardness of the Southerner's head is more than even my rapier-like wit can penetrate.   

But I still say if that's the best shot he can pull he ought to stick to instant.   



C'mon Robert, tell us what's really going on.



Maybe he had another run-in with Mrs. T's rolling pin, and he's not thinking straight.  We should give him the benefit of the doubt.

As much as we like to think Robert has tough skin and is impenetrable maybe one or more comments penetrated through.

He is human ... after all.

What, do I have to put a winky in my posts to show a sense of appreciation for your humor? I thought it was one of the funniest bits of burlesque ever, almost as good as "Who's on first."!

Thanks for going to the effort!

Being a written media and no voice and facial expressions sometimes make it hard to express the intent of the person making the statement.  Smileys, undecided, and question emoticons help in that they will portray to some degree the intent of the poster.

Glad to hear that you enjoyed Peter's humor. 

Does that mean your feelings were not hurt?  Was the lack of posting due to your thread going into a direction you did not care for?

Tex just loves the attention, I think. Any kind of attention as a matter of fact. Even if it means he winds up at the bottom of one of these.

Nah, it was something an uncle told me long ago, "Don't give 'em the satisfaction of an answer until you're ready to lower the boom on 'em." My feelings get hurt over some good-natured ribbing?

The first post or two had me going, then I figured out what was going down. I decided to let it run its course, taking notes the whole while - figuring what's good for the goosed will be even better for the gooser!

..taking notes the whole while - figuring what's good for the goosed will be even better for the gooser!

That was master level stuff going on...

You better have really good notes.

Point taken; names as well.
