crazy. The guy was here on time. It just took a week. The funniest part is, we found out that we have new neighbors from him. He installed their dish, while we were at my husband's family reunion. If we were home, he could have set them up and fixed us at the same time. We knew the house was for sale, just didn't know that it was sold. I hope the family is nice. My youngest just hopes there is a kid there his age. Next Friday he will be 13.

I don't even live in a small town. I live in the outskirts of a small town.

Even missing reading DU for over a week, the song remains the same. All the women and *some* men in HoF are just not nice enough to agree with. You know 'cause if they were nicer they would be in support 110%. If you believe that.....I have a bridge to sell you.

I did get to read a little on my phone. The fuck wars..WTF was that all about. People don't want others to say fuck, but the c-word is fine and dandy?

At least you acknowledged the mistake BainsBane Jun 2014 #45

Egads! intheflow Jun 2014 #62

I don't think HoF was created until 2012 on DU3. There was the Feminist group in existence before seaglass Jun 2014 #22

Ah, maybe it was another group! intheflow Jun 2014 #26

This group didn't exist then BainsBane Jun 2014 #40

Yeah... I'm so fucking sick of the 'man-hater' canard. redqueen Jun 2014 #55

Why read a group they consider so offensive? BainsBane Jun 2014 #75
