?

[SheepyMcSheepster]

11. both!

and i demand the accounts in seperate posts so that i do not become confused!

[mermaid]

19. Last Ticket I Had To Pay

Got busted for 75 in a 55 on Interstate 35 in Austin.

Schmuck in an SUV was pacing me, and refused to let me over so I could exit. So I surprised them and sped up right quick, enuff to get over, and then slowed back to 60. Wouldn't ya know a schmuck in a blue hat and a radar gun nailed me.
150 bucks down the toilet!

[mermaid]

20. Last Ticket I Beat

Bought a used car from a private owner. He hadn't gotten the thing inspected in some time. This was in 2001. The inspection sticker was from 1999.

I was driving it home. It was a Sunday. I intended to get it registered and inspected the next day, because you can't do that on Sundays.

schmuck in a blue hat pulled me over. I offered to show him the paperwork, that I'd just bought the car, and queried...don't I get some time to take care of this stuff?

He refused to look at the paperwork, told me I could show it to the judge.

So I did.

By then, I'd gotten it registered and inspected...and within the five days allowed by Texas law. Case dismissed. But I still had to pay a "court administration fee" of ten bucks to get it dropped...and I hadn't even done anything illegal. Extortionists!!

[Ganja Ninja]

5. That means 100 posts in a day do you think you're up for it?

[mermaid]

7. For This...YES!!

I'm up of it, because I want OUT of the 700 Club...
Don't wanna be in the same club as Robertson and Falwell...

[mermaid]

6. OK, Folks, I Am Into The 700 Club...Now Help Mr Get OUT Of It ASAP

[trotsky]

10. Do you know how to get to Texas from California?

n/t

[melv]

12. What are the ingredients in a souffle? n/t

[mermaid]

15. Depends On The Type of Souffle...

but I think eggs are a main ingredient. Not really sure...lemme call Julia Child...

[mermaid]

13. Depends On what Part Of Texas You Want To Visit

but if you just wanna get to Texas from California, I think Interstate 10 will do it for ya!
I know it runs thru Texas, anyway...does it come all the way out to CA?

[trotsky]

16. Well here's how...

You go east until you smell it...
then south until you step in it!



A California friend told me that once. No offense intended.

[mermaid]

21. LOL, I Heard The Same Is True For Lousy Angeles...

Except you got west till ya smell it...and south till someone shoots ya for wearing the wrong color!

[Lavender Brown]

14. Which is your favorite movie mermaid?

Ariel from "Little Mermaid" or Daryl Hannah in "Splash?" Other? Neither?

[mermaid]

17. Well

I picked my name after Ariel, from The Little Mermaid. So I'm going with that one. I related to Ariel, because, like her, I felt I didn't belong in the world into which I was born. Like her, I reached for the star in my heart. Like her, I faced a lot of opposition to this, mostly from my father. Like her, I eventually realized my dreams.

When I first saw the movie, and first heard Jodi Benson sing "Part Of Your World" I cried...because THAT was the song I'd been singing my whole life, but had never known the words to it, until Jodi Benson sang them for me.

Thanks for asking!

But right now, my all-time favorite movie?? what else other than Fahrenheit 9/11??

Michael Moore ROCKS MY WORLD!!

[No Mandate Here.]

18. Let's see, at 3 - 1/2 minutes a post, how long will it take? <nt>

[mermaid]

22. What Is 5 1/2 Hours?

Can I be the next Ken Jennings?

[No Mandate Here.]

24. That was a $ 400 question. Bloggers for $600, Alex.

What is the universal log in set up on the Daily Kos blog?

[mermaid]

25. Not A Clue n/t

Glad This one isn't a Daily Double!!

[No Mandate Here.]

27. Here it is, and I have to go back to work... Good luck

More and more news publications are putting up registration pages. Whenever I encounter such a page, I create an account that you are all welcome to share. It's either:

or if the login is an email address, then

Login: [e-mail]
Password: dailykos

Many of you have already created accounts at sites all over the place. I have gotten into many a newspaper using those passwords even though I hadn't create the account.

But if you run across a site that doesn't have a "dailykos" account setup, do us all the favor of setting up such an account. It'll make our web surfing efforts much more efficient and enjoyable.

[mrboba1]

Robertson

[pansypoo53219]

[mermaid]

31. Well, I am going for a record here

Thanks for helping.

[belladonna]

43. Sorry, I hold the record on that

In and out of the 700 club in a few hours, one night on a DULL thread.

Now tell me, what is the meaning of life and why can't we all just get along? Hmmmmmm???

[mermaid]

54. The Meaning Of Life?

Dunno...
but I do know the Ultimate Answer is 42.
what was the Question?

[belladonna]

57. Fine, answer my question here

Since you can't figure out the meaning of life stuff

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...

[mermaid]

58. Go Look, I Just Did n/t

n/t

[Teddy_Salad]

78. Yep...you got in and out of the 700 Club in 3 hours

And if I remember correctly, every one of your posts was very deep and meaningful....so full of substance.

[gpandas]

29. why should i? eom

[mermaid]

32. Don't you wanna help out your fellow DU'er?

The 700 Club is something all DU'ers understand that the objective is to get OUT of it as fast as possible.

Please help!

[gpandas]

33. how can i help?eom

[mermaid]

36. By asking me ANYTHING...So I can post, and drive up my post-count n/t

n/t

[gpandas]

38. anything? eom

[mermaid]

40. Yep!

Anything you want to know.

I'll tell you the answer...even if I don't know!! LOL

[gpandas]

42. you're sure, anything? eom

[mermaid]

45. I SAID...ANYTHING!! I Meant It

go for it!

[Shananigans]

34. What can I do to stay awake this morning?

I've already drank a large amount of coffee and I'm not a big caffeine person. It's not even helping...it's only 10:40 and my eyes just won't stay open. What do you suggest?

[mermaid]

37. Keep Asking Me Questions

i'll keep you awake as best I can. but Mermaid recommends a caffiene I.V. drip, just in case.

[NoPasaran]

35. Did the atomic bombs dropped on Japan

destroy any human souls?

[mermaid]

39. I Don't Know

First of all, this question accepts as a postulate the existence of a soul, in the first place.

So, I'll run with that.

since a soul does not, by any definition, have physical form or substance, I do not think such could be destroyed by the bombs dropped on Japan in WWII...or any other bombs we have dropped on helpless innocent civilians in Iraq and Afhanistan just lately, for that matter.

Then again, if you are a neo-con...you are sure that only white, heterosexual, conservative Christians even HAVE souls.

dunno about souls, but those guys have long had blackened hearts.

Thanks for asking Mermaid, NoPasaran!

[mermaid]

41. I am 1/3 of the way there!!

This one is post 735!!

[jukes]

44. i made it out in aday

but posted some extreme nonsense to do it.

tip: respond to ANYgoddamthing; quality means nothing, escape is everything.

[mermaid]

47. I Hope To Follow In Your Footsteps, Then!

I agree. And I'm not just posting here.

I'm going EVERYWHERE!!

Escape from the 700 Club is Job #1 right now!!

[gpandas]

46. if you don't answer questions, how can i help?

[mermaid]

48. I Am Answering!!

But I am also cruising the site looking for other topics to post to.

Just post your question/s...I promise to get to the as quick as I can, until my post count is 800 or better.

right now, my time is 2 hours in the 700 Club.

[gpandas]

49. why? eom

[mermaid]

50. Why Not?

n/t

[gpandas]

51. are my posts getting any clearer for you?

[mermaid]

52. Not Really

but they are helping me rack up my post count, thanks

[gpandas]

56. imo i have helped you to your goal more...

than anyone else, have i not?

[mermaid]

60. So Far, I Think Probably So

and for this I thank you kindly!

[gpandas]

62. kindness was my reason...

but my point is that many posters at du get an attitude when all i do is ask questions. maybe my sig line will be changed to "they answered my questions with questions" thanks, bruce.

[mermaid]

65. LOL

Well, I certainly appreciate your kindness!

[belladonna]

55. She didn't answer mine either

Methinks she doesn't want out as bad as she says she does... maybe Pat got to her and the brainwashing is taking effect?

[mermaid]

59. What Didn't I Answer??

n/t

[belladonna]

61. Well, you hadn't answered when I posted that

So, how many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick anyway? I always wondered......

[mermaid]

64. Well,now

how many pickled peppers are in a peck?

find that out, and you have your answer!

[belladonna]

67. If I knew that, would I ask you?

Hmmmm? Go ask Pat, I bet he's full of useless knowledge like that... just be careful that you don't accidentally get saved.

[mermaid]

70. I guess not

I never counted a peck of pickled pepper before.

I've always wondered that enternal mystery...how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

[belladonna]

I've wondered the same thing

Only in a more obscene sorta way

[mermaid]

72. LOL

but it's a VERY philosophical question, no?

The other one I've always wanted to know is...
Why is Smurfette the only female Smurf??

Damn, I'd like to be Smurfette!! No competition!! wheeeeee!!

[belladonna]

Oops... doubleposted

Sorry

[mermaid]

74. no Problem

sometimes the server just does that. You think your post didn't go thru and you hit send again.

Only reason i'm bothering to post that info is to jack up my post count...

[mermaid]

53. 2 Hours and 15 minutes so far, and I'm halfway there

This is post 750!! woo hoo, keep 'em coming!!

[NoPasaran]

63. Paper or plastic?

Less philosophical than my previous question.

[mermaid]

66. Either one...i'm bi-sackual!!

LOL

[NoPasaran]

73. Good one!

LOL

Time for the bonus round: Refute Xeno's Paradox

[mermaid]

I thought the clerk was gonna lose it, she laughed so hard!

[mermaid]

68. 3/4 of the way there, in just under three hours!!

thanks for all your help so far, keep 'em coming!!
This is post 775!!

[gpandas]

69. last question, for a while,

when do you think you'll make it? gotta go for now, but i will check in to see if you need more help later. good luck

[mermaid]

71. hopefully, Within The Hour, I'll Make It

Thus, I will be into and out of the 700 Club in under 4 hours!!

That stands a reasonable chance of being a DU record!

[jukes]

76. that's gotta be a record buddaroo!

query: do you ever wear tabi sox/geta? very attractive on a female, & really shape the calves.


oops, sorry, just realized you got no legs/feet!

[mermaid]

77. I hope it's a record, anyway

Actually, we mermaids do not wear anything on bottom. Interferes with our fins.

[belladonna]

79. Nope, you passed that mark about 30 minutes ago

Bwahahahaha!!! My record stands

[Guy Fawkes]

80. are you dating or married to a merman? And isn't it illegal to marry...
