Hi. I fought through monkeys in the desert to get here just to see you.
I told him where you were hiding!
Those desert monkeys can be vicious too. [img border=0 src="vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/4.gif"]
It's the lack of bananas that does it.

wow you sure got approved fast to post on here. I am still waiting.I guess they don't want me???
Sorry guys, didn't think it would be this hard to join a forum.
You know where to find me.
Now I can't even use my handle as it is reserved but I am still not approved.
someone put the coffee on to wake up the administrator. 2 days waiting for approval is a long time.People might lose interest!

Right at the VERY TOP of the registration form, it says:
"after registering you [b style="font-weight: bold;"]MUST[/b] send us an email using our handy-dandy [a href="../contact.php"]contact form[/a] requesting that your account be activated. No request from you means no forum access."
Seriously, what part of that seemed unclear??
Did you send an email? Nope.
Did you get forum access? Nope.
Now, since you didn't post your reserved user name here, I have no way of knowing what it is. You could tell me what it is so I could activate your account, or I could start guessing and you could tell me when I get warm.
sorry teh broken to be so stupid.
the process of joining this forum is different then the others. I did not see any thing I was suppose to email back.
my user name is nsgirl
If you can just activate it I would appreciate it.
I still see the anti spam thing to fil out.
do I still need to do that every time to post,or am I not fully registered yet?
O.k. I see it is now working with my user name,but I still have that anti sapm thing.
Does everyone have to fill that out after every reply?
I figureds that was only for guests!
Nope NS....we all fill it out. It's not a 'mistrust' of the members at all...it's just about the spam. (//forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/14.gif)
well that sure slows thing down doesn't it. that will take some getting use to.
I actually registered long ago mom.
I does take some getting used to, but then it becomes second nature.
By the way, welcome back. (//richedit/smileys/Happy/14.gif)

I hate when it times out while typing up a post
lol.. what's the deal with the pig anyway?
I've had the volume up on my computer listening to music on a separate tab when that pig comes out oinking and it scares me. I literally jump every time. Then I say out loud "Gosh that scared me". Then I think "Who am I talking to? No one else is here."
DDD, you can select a longer time limit, or unlimite d time. (//richedit/smileys/Happy/14.gif)
Natasha, the pig always scares the bejeezers out of me too when I forget that the volume is up. If it makes you feel better, zap him a dozen or so times, and he will give you some good karma.

I haven't watched that show in a long time.

Sounds like it. I used to watch it on a regular basis but don't have much time for TV these days. I prefer watching movies. I've gotten to a point where I don't like action much anymore. They're too far fetched. I love scary movies though. Especially when I have to sleep with the light on..lol.
Oh I do still catch an eppy of Family Guy every now and then though.
