worzel
I've been in a serious relationship with two women in my life who have both nagged me to go to the doctor as soon as I fart, and yet if either of them is almost comatose with something they still don't go to the doctor. I always hated it when people told me women were hypochondriacs but they seem to do it by proxy and ignore their own health in my opinion. Not having a go at you, sorry, hope it didn't sound that way, just relaying personal experience lol
1:56 am
puglet
it sounds like to me they cared more about you then themselves. and you dont bother me by your words at all
1:57 am
worzel
it's awful that you can't delete your own gob isn't it? sometimes i should think before I write the way i do. As i said, it wasn't aimed unpleasantly, but being a man it came out that way - my apologies pugs (((hugs))) xx
1:58 am
worzel
the other thing that worries me is that I've been to the doctor's twice in about 20 years and each time i've ended up having an operation or a procedure at the hospital. I'm sure if I just stay at home and suffer the pain it'll be something minor lmao!!!
1:58 am
puglet
your writing dosent bother me at all Wor and nothing to be sorry about.
1:59 am
rururocks
*watches PC police pull up to PB
2:00 am
flosey
but Worz, wouldn't it be better to have something checked before it becomes so serious?
2:01 am
puglet
if you had to have medical work then sounds like you needed to go--and how much belly aching did you do before you finaly went? Maybe they got tired of listening to that--lol
2:01 am
worzel
Oh don't get me wrong, flosey, I totally agree. All I'm saying is that in my PERSONAL experience with the two women I've lived with - and BOTH their mother's and my own mother (real mother) they do not take their own advice xx
2:02 am
worzel
I never belly ache about my ailments lol - I've been known to actually be sent home from an 18 hour shift because I wasn't well and refusing to go. Not that I'm a martyr, I just don't agree with illness xx
2:02 am
flosey
I understand that, worz, just better to be safe than sorry - to quote an oldie
2:04 am
puglet
if I remember right this tummy stuff isnt the first time Ive seen you say something about it Wor. Last month I remember you feeling bad over it
2:04 am
worzel
And yes I also agree that they care, but sometimes it really pisses me off when the one I love refuses to go to the doctor themselves because I love and care for them so much that I get scared, sometimes, for their health but they refuse to go x
2:06 am
flosey
I agree, Worz, if they can't take care of themselves......
2:07 am
worzel
Correct pug. It was longer than a month, but yeah. See, I had appendicitis last October and suffered a lot of pain, so when I got a SERIOUS pain again in February I decided to go to the dr to be on the safe side. It was treated and was a lot more uncomfortable than it is at the moment. Pugs you are so kind for thinking of me though - all of you are. I SHALL take care. Thing is, I KNOW when I need the doctor, and I promise you I will go if necessary xx
2:07 am
worzel
brb need a coffee xx
2:08 am

flosey are you still having sleeping trouble

2:19 am
sprite
mwah, it was ok, I guess. Got a real big hug from my daughter yesterday morning, that was awesome. Somewhere halfway the afternoon my son hurried to the stores and back, and brought me roses and chocolate. Which was late but nice. And I reminded my husband it was mother's day and he said the kids seem to have forgotten... so I told him they didn't and he had, and to make me a nice brunch, which he did.
2:19 am
worzel
funny word tutelage, i must say, but you can't have tutel lol
2:19 am
flosey

2:21 am
sprite
hey flosey :D
Nah, great would have been a mother's day breakfast and hugs at the start of the day. As is our tradition. This was more like ooooops we forgot.
2:21 am
sprite
thank you, pugs, that means a lot to me :)
2:23 am
puglet
I was telling in the back log that from a little after 5 until aboout 6pm we had a tornado over top of us just setting there--but it never came down to the ground--so that was a bit scarey
2:23 am
flosey
ah, sorry, Sprite. 3 of my kids called, the other I never expect to call, but I know he cares, he's just very busy - am hoping both boys will be out this summer
2:23 am

puglet

2:25 am
sprite
np flosey. I think it is different when they have left home and are living lives of themselves. Mine still live here and we have some traditions. Glad they called you. And the one that didn't can't be too busy to spare his mother a few minutes... but maybe it slipped his mind.
2:25 am
sprite
hey rose :) *hugs* Am wearing your very sexy black socks :D
2:26 am
grannyrose

I got my sister to go to church with me yesterday and then afterwards we took out a rose and put on our mom and grandmother's graves
2:26 am
grannyrose

2:27 am
grannyrose
oh, pugs how lovely. and for sister to go with you as well. wh4 a marvellous thing.
2:27 am
sprite
very well, rose. Just a bit tight at the upper band part, but I think that is on purpose? So they won't slip back down? Can't wait until tonight to see if there hasn't been much swelling :)
2:27 am
puglet

2:27 am
sprite

2:34 am
puglet
oh and gradyn, sent me a letter saturday--very nice - Iam going to his end-of-school program the last friday of this month
2:34 am
sprite
and not judgmental. I know nothing drives me away faster than someone proclaiming judgements.
2:34 am
sprite
oh great, pug! Am so glad he is doing well.
2:35 am
sprite
hm thought I found a fish but it is not valid. Must be misspelling it. Halbut.
2:35 am
grannyrose
ditto here, sprite. i am so adverse to people, no matter who they are, being judgemental. it is not up to us to judge others. we can judge if an action/word is right or wrong only.
2:35 am
puglet
the letter was cute--he wrote on a plain sheet of paper and his lines were not at all straight but more like from oppisits corners--lol
2:36 am

I hear you, rose! I know we all judge, it is human nature. But at least we can own that we do so and that we shouldn't. And definitely not impose our judgement on others.

2:47 am
grannyrose
then again, imagine being ab4 to pull your head in...neat trick.
2:47 am
worzel
Hermaphroditism is actually a very misunderstood condition. No hermaphroditical human has been born with both sex genitalia - just internal organs - i.e both testes and ovaries. Mind you, it would be fun to have both I guess . . .
2:47 am
grannyrose
oh, dear....now i've lost it. bbs....
2:48 am
sprite
I'd like the eyes on telescoping stilts.

grannyrose

2:52 am
grannyrose
i give up liz, why can't you?
2:52 am
sprite
cuz it is enable and it sucks
2:52 am
Lizlin
Prefer sprites answer.
2:53 am
sprite
or because there is no V in the grid
2:53 am
Lizlin
Si 4 and ab 4 are though.
2:53 am
grannyrose
am thinking it should be sievable..
2:54 am
sprite
I think it is a great addition to our dictionary. Am putting it in, Liz.
2:54 am
grannyrose
btw, th4 ab4 gets a good workout with this grid.
2:54 am
Lizlin
I'd go with either word.
2:55 am
sprite
there, added to our babble dictionary
2:55 am
grannyrose
okay, all up 9 words use the ab4, including the initial one.
2:56 am
Lizlin
Really glad the party was good Rose. I read back in the chog last night.
2:57 am
sprite

2:58 am
Lizlin
Bbl - early dinner. Hubby going out
2:58 am
sprite
hm nm, I see there are no 9 words at all. Must be reading rose's post the wrong way
2:58 am
grannyrose
liz, it was amazing. and don felt really valued by his family and friends. step-daughter behaved herself. step-son, with asperger's, disappeared at some point, he just walked out and went home. i think i might email him, and gently point out how rude th4 was.
2:59 am
grannyrose
lolol, sprite, sorry dear. eupherism. all up = total of
2:59 am
worzel
don't think that rude comment about the lucky ciggie went unnoticed, ya dirty devil xx
2:59 am
sprite
or maybe you shouldn't, rose. Just let it be. It is tough, being at a social function with asperger's. I think it is great he was there at all.
3:00 am
sprite
ah, thanks rose :D
3:00 am
grannyrose
oh, you are back are you, worzel? * one eye-brow raised*
3:00 am

3:01 am
grannyrose

worzel

3:09 am
sprite
babble tends to grow on you. Before you know it, you are yelling at enable.
3:09 am
worzel
what's enable?
3:09 am
sprite
the dictionary that is used for babble. We use an archaic version.
3:10 am
grannyrose
you were correct, sprite
3:10 am
sprite
thanks rose :)
3:10 am
grannyrose
worzel, enable is a word list linked to babble.
3:10 am
worzel

3:11 am
sprite

*sends rose a big belly laugh*
3:19 am
Lizlin
Did the jester's hat make an appearance?

Lizlin

grannyrose
yes, liz. it's a matter of education.
3:20 am
grannyrose
oh, liz, to die for...but too much. next time i will halve the recommended amount.
3:20 am
sprite
I don't mind nekkid people. Love to go to a sauna. The wobbly bits don't bother me at all. Always so reassuring to see there are no perfect people. Or only perfect people, maybe.
3:20 am
Lizlin
Do you have SBS Rose - have you been watching The Bridge? Key character is a female asperger detective - some of her lines are hilarious!
3:20 am
Lizlin
A bit of indulgence is fun ;)
3:21 am
grannyrose
it was very light, and not overly sweet. the mascopone cheese was delicious.
3:21 am
Lizlin
Haven't been to a sauna - but Turkish ba 4 is fantastic!
3:21 am
Lizlin
I'm sure I'd've loved that cake.
3:21 am

3:35 am
puglet

3:36 am
grannyrose

sprite
no, not yet, pugs. The birthday is still far off.
3:36 am
puglet
Iam glad all went well on that and I cant beleive it got there so quick either
3:37 am
sprite
latin is a dead language, which kind of prevents it being a favorite to me. But I have always enjoyed reading it.
3:37 am
worzel
lmao - not you mum - bent, not broken - like the stem of a falling daffodil awaiting the splint of love from the tender hand of it's carer
3:37 am

pugs, did you gget the dogster message? You might like the website, it's very nice and both Raffie and Rufie are registered
4:19 am
grannyrose
yes sprite.
4:20 am
puglet
I dont think so Ruby--did you just send it
4:21 am
rubyfoo
no, last night. It's www.pupster and you can search for Rafaella andRuffino
4:21 am
puglet
okay Ruby, will check into it and thanks
4:22 am
rubyfoo
there are some adorable pugs on there andmaybe you'll find some great Danes
4:23 am
puglet
you have pics on there too Ruby
4:23 am
rubyfoo
but not very good ones,I haven't quite gotten the hang of it yet
4:23 am
puglet
Iam going to work on getting some pics to share with you guys as soon as I can.
4:24 am
puglet
I hate having pics of me but I know I owe you some so will get it done soon, Iam hoping
4:28 am
rubyfoo
Did I mail you the one of me holding Rufie?
4:29 am
puglet
yes, you did--couldnt hardly see little you--lol
4:29 am
rubyfoo
that was the idea!
4:30 am
puglet
lol Ruby--looks like you were crushed--you poor thing
4:30 am
rubyfoo
did you see the size of his paws?
4:31 am
puglet
I did! good thing both werent on you
4:32 am
rubyfoo
now, at 80 lbs, you should see him climb on my lap whenI'm on the floor with him. He is ruining my knews
4:32 am
puglet
if hes on his back legs standing is he as tall as you
4:32 am
rubyfoo
no, because his legs aren't that long. But his torso is the same as mine
4:33 am
puglet
as small as you are you need to be careful
4:33 am
rubyfoo
fortunately, he doesn't jump up or he would knock me over
4:33 am
rubyfoo
Raffie is almost as big, about 60 lbs now and very strong
4:33 am
puglet
that very good for your sake for sure--I imagine either one could knock you over
4:34 am
rubyfoo
I feel a lot better now that I'm walking Raffie every day. I get to see the neighbors and get exercise at the same time.
4:35 am
puglet
Beulah has more legs then body--I will have to see if shes as tall as Iam if on her back legs. Since shes trained to not jump up Ive never tried that
4:36 am
rubyfoo
Maybe you could teach her to dance
4:36 am
puglet
thats good for you Ruby - helps your mind too I bet to get a break from the homefront
4:36 am
rubyfoo
ya think? Howmuch does Beulah weigh?
4:37 am
puglet
she loves jumping and ball playing
4:37 am
puglet
about 90lbs or more
4:37 am
puglet
havent had her on a scales for awhile
4:38 am
puglet
her tail is her weapon--that thing is like a thick bullwhip-lol
4:39 am
rubyfoo
when the vet needed to weigh Raffie, I brought down my bathroom scale, stood on it, and then she handed methe pup
4:39 am
rubyfoo
Chows' tails are fluffy
4:41 am
puglet
Beulah loves kids and they like her--they know to cover their face when that tail is close-lol But she's a big kitten with them and lets them do whatever to her
4:42 am
rubyfoo
they are not so friendly, very selective about who they let touch them. And they have to approach "low" because the dogs can't see up or to the sides very well
4:43 am
rubyfoo
I have to go and make lunch for Mr. Personality
4:43 am
rubyfoo
see you lter, cookie
4:43 am

6:12 am
worzel
well you've done better than I would have. I wouldn't have got it home from the bakery!

6:24 am
crosshair
and it is time for Crossy's shout out of the day!! Today I would like to wish Dorthy Hodgkin a happy 104th birthday and i must say that she does not look a day over 92:). Interesting tidbit is although she gave so much to science and discovered amazing things that affect us all medically to this day, the poor woman was banned from entering the United states due to her husbands political affiliations: ) So, once again, happy birthday Dorthy!
6:24 am
crosshair
doing well, granny
6:25 am

Crossy is being a good boy and having his yogurt and granola for brekkies today:)
6:26 am

egad, crossy. our governments have a lot to answer for. glad you are well, mate. have promised myself, if my lower back is this painful tomorrow morning, i am NOT going to work.
6:26 am
Angelsong
hi, all. quite a lot of amusement in the grid today. Couldn't words found within words be considered ne8/50?
f
6:27 am
grannyrose
okay, crossy. smile while you eat it...
6:27 am
Angelsong
Fortunately, the words are not un10...
6:28 am
grannyrose
absolutely, angelsong
6:29 am
Angelsong
most of the words are ne8/50; they are not so slippery as to swim away...
6:31 am
grannyrose
am i a wuss, coward? my lower back muscles are in spasm, and both hips aching, whenever i walk. and they expect me to work on my feet for 2 hours.
6:33 am
Angelsong
not in my book, granny. muscle spasms and I are old enemies. they do hurt!
6:35 am
grannyrose
angel, 8's are, ha, lu, ne, ne, ta, te, we
6:36 am
Angelsong
yes, granny..I have all of the 8's
6:37 am
grannyrose
angel, in the US, a company called vitacost...they have magnesium malate on their sire. it is the wonder drug for muscle spasms and cramps.
6:37 am
grannyrose
*site*
6:40 am
grannyrose
angel, hopefully your kidneys are still functioning well. i swear this form of magnesium is amazing. i never thought i would be free of the spasms again. but, as i said, with the arthritis, it is still hard to handle.
6:41 am
crosshair
you just take it easy granny. do not rush things
6:42 am
grannyrose
i hear you crossy. and as i said, if i am like this tomorrow AM, i am so not going to work.
6:44 am
crosshair
what is good for foot and leg cramps?
6:45 am
crosshair
because i can only stomach so many bananas
6:47 am
jwr
someone mentioned magnesium malate earlier -- if you're looking for things like that, lowest cost would probably be Amazon.
6:48 am
crosshair
actually, just saw granny was already talking bout it. i must keep up with the chat
6:48 am

yay, ibd. well done
6:53 am
crosshair
will have to price it out here. the magnesium itself is $8.19+ tax, and the shipping is $10.
6:54 am
crosshair
so, a 20 dollar bill for 180 tabs
6:54 am
grannyrose
i think the shipping is for multiple bottles, crossy.
6:54 am
grannyrose
i pay the one shipping cost for 4-6 bottles. snail mail.
6:55 am
crosshair
it says any size package
6:55 am
grannyrose
and 180 tabs wil;l last you 3 months. look at the cost of other magnesium products available. and they don't work as well.
6:56 am
crosshair
mm, they have a sale on right now for magnesium..
6:56 am
grannyrose
the malate is an acid made from apples.
6:56 am
crosshair
360 tabs $17.69 = tax
6:56 am
crosshair
ahh was wondering, ty granny
6:57 am
grannyrose
go for it, mate.
6:58 am
grannyrose
crossy, MIL suffered from night cramps for over 40 years. i tried this, and she was virtually cramp free for the first time in th4 long.
6:59 am
grannyrose
*tip* once you give them a great feed-back...you pay snail-mail rates, they send express post.
7:01 am
crosshair
works out to 30 dollars for 360 1250 mg tabs
7:02 am
grannyrose
considering, it is about th4 for magnesium 30's in another form, you are way ahead.
7:03 am
crosshair
oops! I must get going. New class today:) Am done with English and taking a workplace law class of all things for the next 6 weeks:)
7:03 am
grannyrose
check it out at your local chemist/pharmacy first. then order. you won't regret it.
7:04 am

Thanks, Helen. Sad morning for me.

11:00 am
MLFAN17
Judi i am so sorryfor your loss we just lost a cat a few months ago
11:01 am
Judi
Ty, MLF. She developed lymphatic sarcoma around her intestines. Painless (thank God for that), but she just couldn't absorb any nourishment after a while.
11:01 am
helensgirlkid
Did Macey enjoy the Peep?
11:03 am
Judi
Ha ha. That was not Macey in the peep pic. She did enjoy a last meal of roasted turkey, kitten milk and many, many treats.
11:03 am
MLFAN17
judi we are not sure what happened with our most recent cat's passing i think partly a stroke and maybe an injury we couldnt afford to take him to a vet. Other cat passed a few yrs ago she was much younger so no idea there
11:04 am
Judi
Stuff just happens to them, MLF. Macey was about 13. It never gets any easier to see them go.
11:05 am
helensgirlkid
we 8 - capable of getting what happens with water
11:06 am
MLFAN17
it eases it in a way as we have a cat now who is just overa year old her name is Ginger
11:06 am
helensgirlkid
When they get old enough, there's a little handful of things that can be what goes wrong - ang not a lot to be done for any of them.
11:07 am
Judi
Yes, we still have our Norman. He's a 15 lb. tub of mush who will probably outlive us all. It definitely helps to have another animal to cuddle for comfort.
11:07 am
MLFAN17
helen i know about that unfortunately
11:07 am
helensgirlkid
That kitten milk was a big help with one of ours in her last weeks - that and Greek yogurt, of all things.
11:08 am
MLFAN17
greek yogurt?
11:08 am
MLFAN17
Judi how old is Norman?
11:08 am
Judi
Norman is also 13. Healthy as a horse.
11:09 am
MLFAN17
that is awesome Judi:)
11:09 am
Gail
My elderly border collie ate greek yogurt, it was his very last meal - frozen greek yogurt.
11:09 am
Judi
Our husky loves goat yogurt.
11:09 am
Judi
It's very good for them, especially if they have digestion issues.
11:10 am
MLFAN17
our cat Ginger will not eat any people food
11:10 am
Gail
Quid never had people food, except the frozen yogurt. We had some every night after we got home from work.
11:11 am
Judi
It's funny how they all have their own tastes. Macey like mac & cheese, raw fish, popcorn, any roasted meat.
11:11 am
MLFAN17
that is sweet. Ginger also likes to play with her crunch food and when we tried french fries did the same thing lol
11:12 am
Judi
Norman, on the other hand, sneers at most people food.
11:12 am
MLFAN17
she did the same thing.
11:13 am
Judi
I suppose after he'd eaten a dead mouse, nothing else quite compared. lol!

We had one cat getting a scruffy coat s0 I took her to vet - cancer, painless. We were going out of town the next week, so I took her home and stuffed her with all her favourite - Devonshire cream, blue cheese,
11:17 am
MLFAN17
thats the clue i can think of lol
11:18 am
helensgirlkid
gerber's pureed lamb, egg yolks, fresh asparagus (yes, she loved it!) and we all petted her like crazy. Took her back on Monday and held her while she got her shots Nice to be able to do something like that - that she really liked.

In the crowd I run with, "adult sippy cup" refers to any covered drinking container used to conceal an alcoholic beverage in public.

The slogan on new Hampshire licence plates is "Live Free or Die" These plates are manufactured by prisoners in the state prison in Concord.
3:02 pm
fnurt
True story: A New Hampshire resident once wanted to cover up the slogan on his plate for religious reasons. The state said he was not free to do so!
3:13 pm
penquis
someone in NH recently won a court case to keep his license plate....cops lie.....
3:13 pm
o-o
In 1977, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the case of Wooley v. Maynard, 430 U.S. 705, that the State of New Hampshire could not prosecute motorists who chose to hide part or all of the motto. That ruling came about because George Maynard, a Jehovah's Witness, covered up "or die" from his plate. "By religious training and belief, I believe my 'government' – Jehovah's Kingdom – offers everlasting life. It would be contrary to that belief to give up my life for the state, even if it meant living in bondage."[2] Pursuant to these beliefs, the Maynards began early in 1974 to cover up the motto on their license plates.

6:02 pm
lil*monkey
Thanks for explanation of the kids game! I didn't know that.
6:02 pm
car.eeyore
I did but I believe the one with an E at the end is a word as well...but I could be wrong.
6:02 pm
MollyL
Well, fistule is in the dictionary. It's just that this game is based on a word list made up by mad men.
6:03 pm
lil*monkey
I believe with E at the end is the French word.
6:05 pm
MollyL
Yes, it is the French version. However this word list only recognizes French words like merde (shit)

10:07 pm
Jillyjill
I finished earlier...just popped in to scope who was on...let me know if you need clues
10:11 pm

Considering what a hotel room in downtown Manhattan costs, Lickety should be there himself to hand write the list for you.

10:50 pm

i was so tired on monday, i went back to bed, instead of going to hydro. the weekend was full on.
10:51 pm
kje
I could use a couple days just to sleep I think... though tonight likely won't be it - I need to get some laundry done
10:53 pm
grannyrose
yuck, kje. it's such a problem the way the fairy godmothers of this world have disappeared. i haven't seen mine since i moved out of the family home.lol
10:53 pm

we did a bunch of different things. we went to two plays Wicked and Becky's New Car. We also went to an astronomy movie at the IMAX, and walked around Spokane's River Park, which is beautiful.
11:08 pm
harpjane
Then we found out about a dog agility competition and watched that for a while.
11:09 pm
grannyrose
wow!! what did you think of wicked?
11:10 pm
harpjane
I loved it! The cast was very good, especially the stars. The special effects were grand. I read the book several years ago but it diverged from the book in delightful ways!
11:12 pm
grannyrose
lovely. it seems you packed a lot into 2 days.
11:12 pm
harpjane
We were busy the whole time. We also camped, and took some nice walks where we stayed.
11:13 pm
harpjane
The rivers are all very full which made it wonderful!
11:13 pm
grannyrose
oh, jane, it all sounds sp perfect. and obvious;ly the weather was kind to you.
11:14 pm
harpjane
we just had a few sprinkles, nothing big
11:14 pm
harpjane
it's spring here, btw
11:15 pm
grannyrose
i'd love to see wicked. but himself is very much against it. * sigh * he's such a stick-in-the-mud sometimes.
11:15 pm
harpjane
Google "Pitcher and Bowl Spokane" and you'll see some pictures of the area.
11:17 pm
grannyrose
oh, my. what a beautiful piece of our world.
11:24 pm
harpjane
I think you have some beautiful pieces where you live, also
11:26 pm
grannyrose
why thank-you jane. i think so too. but there are so many places on this planet which take your breath away.
11:28 pm
harpjane
I'd love to come to nz sometime.
11:29 pm
harpjane
te6 anyone?
11:29 pm
grannyrose

11:30 pm
grannyrose
te6, the number after nine, + 2 vowels + plural letter
11:32 pm
grannyrose
oh, jane,don't start me on NZ. we did a cruise down the eastern coast. it was amazing. next time we are going to fly over, hire a camper van, and drive around the ineer part, and along the western coast, hopefully of both islands.
11:36 pm
harpjane
How far north are you? I see you're in Melbourne but I don't know where that is, really.
11:37 pm
grannyrose

11:38 pm
grannyrose

11:39 pm

11:39 pm
grannyrose
hey ya, mate. how are you? have you been doing lots of driving today?
11:39 pm

11:41 pm
rururocks

11:42 pm
grannyrose
ugh, that is warm. any predicted higher this week?

poor don drove over to pick up a new metal storage cupboard for the garage today. unpacked it, and in the process of assembling it, the lock for the door fell apart. he is not a happy camper at the moment.
11:46 pm
rururocks
I hate having to assemble stuff.
11:46 pm
rururocks
can't we just get stuff already done
11:47 pm
grannyrose
of course you can, at twice the price.
11:48 pm
rururocks
yeah.. well often the guys you pay to build stuff don't do it right either
11:48 pm
grannyrose
and they're supposed to be the experts, right?
11:49 pm
rururocks
right.
11:49 pm

11:57 pm
grannyrose
hmmmm, haven't seen him since his birthday. i emailed him, and still no response.
11:58 pm
grannyrose
and i don't have his partner's email addy either. i must admit i am a tad concerned.
11:59 pm
rururocks
yep.. he vanished a bit ago.
11:59 pm
rururocks
I don't have his email.. so nothing I can do. I do speak to people that communicate with him.. so no word there either
