I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I get to feel good and then not have to pay my bills. Win/win.

hivemined, especially British and American spellers: orientated?

That's what I want to spell, and then force myself to spell "oriented" instead, but I don't like it. That latter feels too much like "I showed them whites how to be sinophiles!".

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I remember in Alive they ate livers because they were nutritious. Maybe easier to chew too.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

orientated?

Nope nope nope.

t edit My understanding is that it's a back-formation that gets used so often that it's in common use. But I still don't think it's any more correct than "conversate."

We host a server, msbelle. And my kids play on some kid-safe public servers, too. I'll email you the details.

CJ plays, msbelle. He doesn't normally play multi-player though. He said some of the multi-player servers aren't well moderated. How old is he again?

I have sorted out which servers my kids can play on. Sometimes they play on friend's private servers and sometimes on public. The kids prefer well moderated servers.

They also like to Skype when they play, too, to talk to each other through the game.
