Actually, I do not like grits at all... I am an embarrassment to my family   :P

Fortunately, pancakes are one of the few things I actually can cook. My dad taught me how to make awesome banana pancakes growing up.

See, I'm a pancake purist.  Just plain 'cakes, with lots of butter and syrup...

This thread has been...flap-jacked. 

Oh yeah, I so went there.  ;)

*facepalm*

It would probably have more of an impact, Bookie, if we agreed to make out. 

;)

*contemplates, if only to make Mystic salivate*

And, ya know, 'cause Aine's hot  :-*

Bookie and I are planning on staying at the La Quinta hotel in Blue Springs.  It is where we stayed last year for the...er *coughs* Incident.  ;)

Reasonable rooms, good rates, decent breakfasts.  Well, not that we *need* breakfast as Mystic will be providing us with pancakes.

Man, make one comment about liking pancakes, and next thing you know you're cooking up breakfast for a whole hotel...

Excellent!! Yay for pancakes!!

Hmm, fair question.  I was thinking sad pout.  But, in order for you to feel like you're missing something, I'll attempt a sexy pout.   ;)


AND, to have even more of an impact, I'll convince Aine to pout sexily as well.   :-*

I will pout if I don't see you when I am in town...    :P

I think I might be going to this signing...

Oh come on bookie, Houston isn't that bad. I am sure it would still be fun.  ;D

I'm sure Houston would be fun... well, anywhere with a crowd of forum people would be fun.  But really, you can't beat Chicago for a Dresden gathering... I mean, a group picture with Sue is worth the trip in and of itself  ;D


Well, it did happen in Texas...

<< is bummed

Houston is probably doable for me, but won't be nearly as fun as Chicago.

Maybe there's a Chicago date later in the tour... I'd rather go to Chicago for a 'regular' signing than  to Houston for a release day signing...

I hope I didn't make you feel bad.  I just wanted to let you know we hadn't forgotten about Wizwad. :-*

No problem!  It was just a 'facepalm' moment!   :P

Site Suggestions & Support / Re: What is the deal with multi-posting?
« on: November 04, 2009, 11:16:27 PM »
I guess, for me, I don't want someone to report me, because they are feeling like they can't join the discussion.
That's not(or shouldn't be, in my opinion) on me...it's on them.

I think there is a clear difference between someone consistently posting on a topic, and someone attempting to lock down a discussion on here.
I've seen the latter....and reported it, not for the multi posting, but for the bullying behaviour.

So the theory would be that in and of itself, multi-posting isn't an issue.  But if the multi-posting (or any other action) seems to be locking down a discussion or otherwise bullying, it should be reported. 

We can't look at things from everyone perspective, however.
I've seen, during my time on here, comments I meant innocently, and even things where I said, straight out "This is my opinion" or "Well, in my view" be mis- or re-interpreted negatively.

I think we need to be careful not to put too much onus on the poster for the readers interpretation...otherwise we'll never post anything more interesting than 'Nice day today'.

I'm not saying all the onus should be on the poster.  But it seemed like the discussion was tending toward all the onus being on the reader.  I believe there is a balance between the two. 

How so?

If the individual is feeling uncomfortable because of something that is bullying behavior, then it's not just a personal issue.
