I've opened a new classroom, but Miss Rika has the gradebook. So if you're looking for a grade you'll have to ping her. Miss Slippy is pretty generous with the plusses if you compliment her shapely legs, so you might try submitting your homework to her instead. My secret for getting extra plusses on my A+ from xs will remain a secret between me and her, so you're on your own if you want her to review your work.

I'll be in a training class all day and away from my computer. Y'all have fun in my absence.

I thinks this counts as Threnody:

We can never replace a fellow Marine or best friend, but I can attest that he died doing what we all hope to be doing as Marines, they were advancing, leading, and setting the example, they were being MARINES! It may not matter in the grand scheme of things to anyone but us, but we are singularly proud that we have and know Marines that fought and died like these.

We remember and memorialize them and keep them alive every single time we put on this uniform -- we are just honored to wear the same eagle, globe, and anchor as these warrior/heroes. We don't make policy, we don't decide on the fight, but we do fight and win. And when we win, it is because every one of these Marines fights with us in spirit, and we will not, we cannot let them down.

To we Marines, Semper Fidelis is more than a motto. It was to them, and to us who were privileged to fight with them, a way of life.

Ignoring the threnody for 6-year-old Tiffany after being savaged by a 170 pound 12-year-old monster, the courts saw fit to let him go. After all, he was a good kid. Now, Lionel Tate is back in jail for armed robbery. May they keep him there. Any 12 year old who can't tell the difference between play wrestling moves and beating someone to death is probably beyond redemption.

I don't forsee a threnody anytime in the near future for the stupidity of crooks.

You can't make this stuff up! 'POSTER' BOYS FOR STUPIDITY

A Brooklyn suspect in two livery-cab stickups redefined stupid yesterday when he walked into a police station to check on his arrested partner-in-crime — and found himself standing in front of his own wanted poster.

Please join me in a threnody of secret garden's account. She had all her info purged from the computer and has to start over. I am in the process of regaining my name.

Goood Morning secret2 (ya newbie you( l-)

I will rise up in a threnody of grief stricken ululation for the loss of all your data and your persona.

While I compose said threnody, allow me to point you to an answer to a question you asked about why someone would need two sound cards in a computer.. I posted the comment in Monday's WFTD, but don't know if you got pinged for it or not,

if you didn't, the link is HERE . If you have already read it, please disregard the link ;-)....

Anyhow, VRWC, that's my homework, know ya don't grade ;_ but it does fit in with the news of the day, since secret has lost identity and persona, it is only right to compose a threnody of lament for same.

Ok, xs, and all, today, gwmoore is pleased...girlchild has met someone...probably the only Republican Conservative in the whole Peoples Republic of New Jersey, and is actually going out with him.... hurrah!!! progress at last!!! the "sitting around the house with great lament" stage is over, thank God. Even though she was abused, there are wondrous things at work... her first marriage was civil, therefore, as far as the Church is concerned, she was never married...no priest was involved... The guy she met ( and is serious about, BTW) is very much like gwmoore (Navy, carrier,motorcycles, "checkered youth" etc etc but a Republican!! Conservative!!! in the PRNJ/ Unbelievable!!!)... a genuine nice guy..... gwmoore approves of him....He too, while divorced, also had a civil wedding the first go round, so he too, in the eyes of the Church, never married......

OPNOTE: I do believe I'm rushing things here, but should events progress in the (hopefully) correct direction, maybe I can have things done up right this time!!!!!! Sheesh, one can always hope....

Sri to go off topic, but gw is excited for girlchild, as he sees positive signs..Now, I got to get them both posting on FR so I can get a real handle on their true views [espionage grin]...girlchild is already trinity1 so she can post immediately, but I don't know if this guy knows about this excellent site or not......LOL....

OK, end of OT discussion, and back to singing the threnody for secret's FR identity.....

Greg

The only threnody going on here is one for my ipager which passed away yesterday in route to Atlanta. I'm really dancing a jig in celebration (until the new one arrives anyway!).

VRWC, I think I might have to take a "F" on *threnody*. I don't have two brain cells today to rub together. Bobby said he'd rub up against me though, but I don't want his brain cell. He needs it.
