Well! well! Well!
Ok Rico, point noted, clarification accepted, thanks ....sorry I was of no use
& would be of no use with my internet illeteracy - wrong choice, Rico!
Was Kevin trying to stir up the pot by any chance? kerfuffle huh! hey hey!
Anyway, the misunderstanding, crossed signals.. call it what you will, did
result in postings though.... & Kevin if it wasnt for your query, I wouldnt
have got Rico to see that I made a very "poor" help. So thanks! By the way
Kevin why did you call me poor? didnt get that meaning of yours & didnt bother
to question Rico's sentence anyway..perhaps another of those typographical
errors which you seem to pick up & point out so quickly. I cannot consider
myself poor when I have friends on SaligaoNet like you, Rico, Albert, Mario &
Muriel & all the other SaligaoNetters besides a whole lot of friends in this
part of the world.
Muriel & Mario...I see how quickly you rise to the occasion - causes are
supported in a jiffy, hope you are successful hereafter in all the good causes
because in Saligao there are a number of them, but my being or not being on
this Net shouldnt be a "cause". Thanks all the same. & contrary to what Kevin
suggested, Rico was not in danger, neither is Albert nor myself - Kevin has
a wicked sense of humour which makes him seem "insolent" - hey Kevin! your
word, not mine - I just borrowed it for a while. But lightning bolt???
Church of Google? Kevin, be careful what you mess with...... other than
SaligaoNet & Darwin of course..... gotcha!
& what is it with the desert? a sly dig at those of us living in this part of
the world as opposed to those in the western world? Donkey carts & cycles as
opposed to "Tubes" & "Undergrounds",... tents & huts as opposed to skyscrapers?
The Bahrain skyline looks more like that of New York now - from the window I
can see the towering World Trade Centre with its wind turbines, & Financial
Harbour - (50+ storeys & still climbing) - awards have been gained - & more
coming up,... Malls & hypermarkets with all "signature"/"designer"/"branded"
goods peeping out at one ,... on the roads are seen Mercedes, Lexus & BMWs
alongwith the Toyotas & Nissans & Suzukis .... & those in the rest of this
Region will vouch for much more.
Voluminous offerings? from the desert? Jeez! Kevin, you do pay a lot of
compliments. Thanks a million! Voluminous reminds me of those huge billowing
skirts & dresses of the Victorian era - but you forget that at present I live
in a "Kingdom" where Democracy prevails, which means freedom of speech & no
policing of thoughts or words & deeds, or so it seems - do read the daily
newspaper on the net - Gulf Daily News - & you will know what I am "talking"
about.....by the way I have contributed to this daily paper only a couple of
times....everybody seems to be saying the same thing & repeating themselves
more often than not when nobody listens, ... some people do tend to be deaf
when it is to their advantage of course.....I will stick to SaligaoNet inspite
of there being not many voluminous writings or topics.
Hmm! doesnt look as if the above 2 paragraphs are Saligao-related but I will
"let them be" even if I do invite the wrath of the Fathers of this Net.
Have a nice day & weekend. I had a beautiful weekend - dustfree! & a lovely
Valentine's Day spent with friends at home rather than at the hotels &
Restaurants - Global crunch & all that, you know....... Hope you all enjoyed
the day with your family & friends.
Ta ra
Annette
