1. We NEVER make fun of anyone (at least to their knowledge) without the prior consent of others who have already treaded that path with much success (and then we all just jump on the bandwaggon).
2. If you see your name or find yourself amongst conversation between the good folk on this forum...RUN!!! (be blessed, that means we are willing to tolerate you either until we get tired of talking about you or you present us with a lawsuit, whichever comes first)
Bwaaahahahaaaaaaaa....[evil laugh]

We are not making fun of you, on the contrary, we are very appriciative of the fact that you (inadvertantly) lobbed up a softball at which, several of us took a free swing.mandydollie said:i like my thing-a-ma-jig..... i guess my small town girl homemade word was a hit?

Whether it's a thing-a-ma-jig, thingy, doohickey, whatchamacallit, whosit or thing-a-ma-bob, this crew will find a way to have some fun with it.
And as long as what-ever-it-is transfers your files successfully, who cares what our gang does with it?

But wasn't that my original point? Sometimes you don't want a thing-a-ma-jig that's faster.
If we didn't like you, we wouldn't waste the brain power thinking up the jokes.mandydollie said:
