I've invited buffistas to my parents' for Xmas morning! Kat and lori had xmas dinner with us.

Delurking 1: Because we don't always check our e-mail.
I can always claim I met Sox at Sparky's wedding! Which is also where I met Sparky.
Buffistas hung out with my mom and stepdad in a whole other state, while I was back home in Ohio! My mom and stepdad were in Vermont on vacation, and megan walker and Trudy were also in Vermont, and they all planned to meet up at my brother's restaurant (Trudy had met my mom when she previously visited Cincinnati, so it wasn't a totally out-of-the-blue thing).
Because it's the Buffistas, I knew it wouldn't be long before someone mentioned the other way.
And risk pregnancy ?
Whoo!! Look at the size of Vortex's Oxford comma!
almost as big as my busoms.

All part of my elaborate white slavery axe murder plan. Just FYI.
Well, I didn't know I was dyslexic until really late.
Skipping a couple dozen to claim Seska as my sistah! When I was a kid, there was a different technical term for it...'stupid.'
No joke, it wasn't until Cher started talking about dyslexia that anybody put 2 and 3 together to look into what caused my slow reading, mixing up letters, leaving out portions of sentences, etc.
One college professor, bless him, used to drop my bluebooks, ungraded, on my desk with a time when I was required to verbally tell him what I knew.
Most other instructors just shook their heads and tsked, "How can someone so smart be so..."
In a way, I'm glad. I'm not sure I would have taken to the accommodations my faux son uses now. Plus, I work really hard to figure things out.
Did you say " axe murder " makes notes . ((( hugs ))) Askye's shoulder .
So says Miss "Gave up everything to bring Rock and Roll to the Needy".
Hah!
I usually just say "my friends" when sourcing some piece of arcane knowledge I've gleaned from here. The SO knows when I preface with "My Friend So&So" that I mean someone from the boards that he may have never heard of.
But at this point, he does know about lots of you. And I always show him Noah & Grace videos. He's much with the Noah & Grace love, as is right and proper.
And he's a geek too, with his own invisible friends, so it's not an issue with him.
Copped form others:
Cilantro: Needs more research
Olives: Oh indeed, all kinds.
Double-space after a period: Not as much as I used to. I'm getting better.
Muffaletta: Even more research
Semi colons, as well as serial commas, are as common as my horrid habit of comma splice errors.
My comma splice errors make editors, and English teachers, cry.
