seed
thank you. please be seated.
the recent events that have transpired here on the spring have
brought attention to one fact: the american people want us to
continue to serve them here on the spring. it is time to
put politics aside and focus on the needs of the american people.
and the boers. now, are there any questions?

Well, you know, the first one is:
Can any of the posts in here actually be used in a court of law?

i am very glad you asked that question. i think the american people
are technically in favor of having some of these posts used in
a court of law. now, i also feel that we need to examine the
issue further from several angles and determine what the best
course of action would be in regards to the technical use
of postings in a court of law. it could be that this is not
a good thing, though i do not want to make is sound like it is
bad because it is not. however the simple fact that the american
people are concerned about these issues makes it important, and i
am glad that you brought the topic up.
next question?

wow, ray, where'd you learn to talk like a lawyer? *grin* i think the danger of using these posts in a court of law would be from using them out of context. you know, a lawyer's favorite tactic.

now that is a very good point, young lady. i have strongly been
in favor of using and/or not enabling the functionality of
such items in the past. i have said before that such items
used "out" of "context" might prove to be problematic. technically,
this is an issue of grave concern for us here in screwed, and we
feel that the american people deserve a fair shake in determining
how they want these things dealt with.
next?

Then, Mr. Lopez, may we take it
that you are, in effect, in favor of
the aforementioned plan outlining the
proposed steps to take in any potential
future setting of such circumstances?
And, if not, could you elaborate on your
postion should such eventualities arise,
either directly or indirectly?
~ratthing

exactly. as i have said, the american people are in effect taking
a very proactive approach in these manners. John Rockefeller once
said, "i beleive that every right implies a responsibility, every
opportunity, an obligation, every possession, a duty." i feel that
the american people have given us a mandate to continue on as
careful a course as possible, given the most caring and humane
ways we can think of.

And how do the American people plan to reconcile the concept of 'caring and humane ways' with their Boer neighbours?
~ratthing

i am glad you asked that question young lady. this concept is in
dire need of reconciliation, in much the same way that many key and
important concepts are. our boer neighbors are very important to us,
and the mandate given to us by the american people demonstrates that
such a solid and lasting relationship is a key component to developing
a kinder and gentler approach to most cases of such magnitude.
next question?

Speaking of such gatherings, what would you suggest be done
to insure the continuance of said festivities for the following
generations, and if this isn't feasible, what are
your thoughts concerning the loss of such traditions to the
recent Boer/American confederation?

I'd just like to know what that word meant. It looked like one of those towns in
Wales.

No, it didn't have nearly enought L's to be Welsh.

ha-ha, Autumn!!
And NO NO NO!
The koedoedrolverspoeg competition is an important annual Boer event. Anybody can take part in seeing who can spit a kudu turt furthest.

that's done with watermelon seeds (pips) and/or tobacco juice
here in the states...
not to mention, Autumn, there weren't any y's...
in Welsh, it would probably look something like
kyldyndrollvyrlspoich...

LOL!!!
But $hit, I'd rather spit kudu turts than tobacco juice. Foul!

wer's had in his mouth snake venom, fire ant juice, leftover glandular excretions from old worn out scrubwomen right after the scrubbing, tire iron lickings from the hazardous waste site down the block from wer he lives, chocolate malts that grew hairs on the chest of the glass he drank it out of, small scale babysitter farts that traveled the length of the room and landed in the cereal he was eating.....this is only a 1000th of the worst stuff wer's had in his mouth that I can remember.....Terry and Ray
now lots more.....Stacey has seen him merrily suck on and seriously swallow useless lifeforms from other galaxies that when those lifeforms were touched to a diamond (that Stacey's grandmother used to own), that diamond melted into a puddle of naked booze.

No, those are bushwoman - I know, because my husband always says being married to me has taught him one thing: you can drag a bushwoman out of the bush, but you can't drag the bush out of the bushwoman.
So, a scrubwoman must be something else. A cleaning lady perhaps?

yes, you are correct...
and I thought that you could at least shave the bush off a bushwoman...

You might want to obtain her consent first. Anyone who flourishes in such an
environment, is probably pretty handy with a weapon.

�blush�
I'm pretty smooth, yeah. But I don't really have a choice in the matter - it is how nature intended it. My sister got my share of the back hair and thick eyebrows, and other exotic hairs when we were made; I got alot of head hair, and practically nothing elsewhere. Like a mutant rat, really!

I would feel that most of the conversations that take place in
those areas of The Spring that do have the conferencing system
would in almost their entirety be in existence but the special
prosecutor, the court, and, I think, the screwed participants
are sufficiently familiar with the conferencing system to know
where the conferencing system exists and to know the situation
in terms of the conferencing process but I feel, although the
process has not been undertaken yet in preparation of the material
to abide by the court decision, really, what the answer to that
question is.

William, would it be too much trouble to translate that statement into
English? (Perhaps it's been messed up by telnet...?!)
