How could I tell this comment was sarcastic?
I can't help but guffaw here, because this is just too precious. The whole *thread* was initiated to poke fun at Judy's continuing tendency to "translate" what other people are "really" saying in their posts, because she "knows" what they're saying. She's on record here dozens of times of claiming that they really "mean" exactly the opposite of what they say they mean. It's rather an amazing siddhi she professes to have, if you think about it. But it seems to function irregularly. Now she can't even tell when Lawson is being sarcastic and when he's not. Maybe the siddhi only works on...what is her term... "anti-TMers." :-) Thanks to both Judy and Lawson for making my morning. You just can't make this kinda stuff up. It's really delightful... :-) :-) :-) ------------------------ Yahoo!
