I've heard about the lime trick, I'll give that a try. As we know lime has many uses, especially here in New Jersey.......... :rolleyes:

it goes well with tequilla and salt. :p

Hi! No, not repressed. Yes, a woman. My post was not about the drinking at all -- it was about the posting when drunk. 3Ring is cool with it the morning after, so...let the internet record remain! :)

I find it distasteful in the extreme that potential (and current) employers poke about the internet in an attempt to glean insight into an employee's character -- but, some do.

Hmmm. I'm sure this will come across as somehow judgmental but it's not meant to be: on most fora I've participated in over the past, oh, let's just say 10 years for short, drunken posting was strongly discouraged. Mostly, I think, to protect the poster.

I'm a bit distressed that this woman was encouraged to keep posting for as long as she did. I know that most everyone here is fond of her...but, as is well known: the internet is forever. What if her potential employer got a whiff of tonight? Okay, Bithy, you are being a spoil-sport. Why don't you just grab a beer and shut up?
Don't worry about 3, she's too smart to ever let her employers know her sl identity. And yes we do love her.

Golf is a stupid game.

Speaking of games.....once again I present

Baseball, explained to a Foreigner

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in.

Each man that's on the side that's in goes out and when he's out
he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out.

When three men are out the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out.

Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

When both sides have been in and out nine times including the not outs

That s the end of the game.
That about sums it up.

Re cricket: The grass on the pitch grows faster than the game progresses.

Hmm, just thinkin' ...
If dog pee does such a fine job with killing grass, you'd think someone would bottle the stuff and sell it as a more environment friendly weed killer than Round Up or something.
Maybe I could borrow Boomer to pee on my dandelions.
Hmm...since we've been neglecting our yard a lot of unwanted grass has appeared...

Yeah, just as soccer has insidiously taken over our parklands, recently a new park was dediated to Yankee great Phil Rizzuto, with 2 soccer fields and no baseball field :eek: , cricket games are becoming an annoyingly common sight. :p
World style football and rugby are very popular at the playing fields near my house and have been for years. But I haven't seen too much cricket around here yet.


From: 3Ring Binder
no worries. i was goofing. and if my employer wants to stalk my internet use, have at it. i yam wut i yam. no regrets. don't you worry about me. i'm a big girl.
It was fun, and obviously nothing to do with your professional life or qualifications.

Yeah, we got that too there was even stuff like milo growing up around the bird feeder. We stopped putting feed out there a while ago when we got over-run with pigeons.

employers snooping through your forum posts and being shocked at someone drinking alcohol... and people caring that they might... that sounds like a repressed society to me!


Whenever I encounter those questions on job apps about my leisure activities, I leave them blank, it's none of their business. If it keeps me from getting hired, fine, it's probably someplace I wouldn't want to work anyway.

Repressed? I understand Bith (who is apparently a lady) lives in California, and I hadn't noticed them being particularly repressed last time I was there :cool: . . .


But remember, California , and New York for that matter, is home to some of our most illustrious Nanny Staters, in both the entertainment and political arenas. They however proudly proclaim themselves Liberals. I guess it is the "Do as I say and not as I do". Party. :p

It's kind of like when you take a sick day and then they want you to tell them exactly what was wrong with you. I used to say "personal illness".

We think the nanny state should provide us with what ever drugs we feel we need to have fun and get through the day.

I think you were a little distracted.
You think? Well, one could hope....







and would probably even be correct.

Or maybe a little TOO judgmental. We have heard of cases where people did not get jobs because their prospective employer did a simple web search, found their Myspace or Facebook pages and did not like the images set out there.

Personally, I never cared what anyone did on their own time as long as they did the job they were supposed to do, and did it damn good, when they were on company time.

Brenda - Guess what I discovered. I went out back to attack the dandelions and noticed that a certain male in this household has not mowed back there yet. Well, if the grass (I use that term very very loosely) is allowed to get tall enough, it hides those dead spots caused by the dog pee.
:rolleyes:
