Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Amyliz, serasempre @cox.net if you want to send it to me. My son was a big animorphs fan, as well as that other series of hers that sold fairly well, and I read all of those. If I can do that, I'm sure I can read anything you've written (It can't be worse *g*). I'd certainly be glad to give you my take on it, if you'd like.

Because books.

Deena, thanks. Sent the email off just now, in fact.

One newbie-ish question: What's "insent"? I've seen a few of you use it, and can't quite figure out where it came from, although I'm assuming it means "email's been sent."

Deb, I'll take a blink like that any day.

Yeah, that means "I sent you an e-mail." Kind of like "incoming." but with all the Bitches, "coming" tends to mean other things.

Up with the sun

erika, you may yet inherit the Porny Pants.

AmyLiz, sorry for not answering yesterday -- yes, red_emma at hotmail.com is the rightemail address for me.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

AmyLiz, if you want any more people to look at it, I'd be happy to.

Already, um, insent.

How porny. :-)

I want to join the Bitches. It's my favorite thread to lurk in.

You're just bad influences. And I've stumbled into enough accidental double entendre, I'm hyper-conscious now. Imagine the fun when JZ sent me a box...um, package...oh, the hell with it. That thing, with the notecards and stuff. Amy Liz, come be a Bitch. We don't even have a secret handshake.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I may have to resub to Bitches. I'm missing some of my regular conversations, damnit.

AmyLiz, Insent, Incoming (for future insents), backsent, backflung, there are a whole lot of versions.

Hil, Gladly! The more the merrier. Will send in a minute.

erikaj, No handshake?! (frowns) That's almost disappointing. :-) I think I will wander in there soon, though.

While I'm asking questions, though, I think I figured out "timelies" -- so you're not saying good morning to someone in another time zone, for instance? But what's "-ma"? As in "healthma", for example? If that one was in the FAQ, I definitely missed it.

Must go get actual work done. Blah.

AmyLiz, -ma is a child of karma. It specifies that you want good karma beamed your way from the group - for car repair (car-ma), health (health-ma), employment (job-ma), etc.
