3. "keeping redqueen's irritability going"

Why bother ? redqueen is the only human that can defy the laws of thermodynamics by managing to

7. My best friend used to simply call them "VersaRobbers."
Edited on Tue Apr-28-09 08:48 PM by Mike 03
In the ancient 80s, they used to be called "VersaTellers" I think; that is where the term came from, apparently.

15. One of my many pet-peeves.
Why would anybody waste money on a hot water heater? I installed a cold water heater in my home. If I had hot water I wouldn't need a water heater.
