In passing - did anyone on here, now, ever post to the Glitter Room thread on the Beeb?

Don't remember that one: would it work here?

I don't remember it either.

I very much, unfortunately, doubt it.

It was a joke that started with one comment about a poster, 'Fluffy Pink Dragon', entering a classroom 'thread'as the teacher who would dismiss 'naughty' children to the cupboard in which the Art supplies (glitter etc) were kept to tidy it up.

Thinking further I seriously doubt wether any here would have seen it as it dwelt on the Pagan Board, but the last post to it was made on the last possible day, by which time the cupboard had grown to a huge castle with a wine cellar that stretched into N-space so that if you needed Napoleon Brandy for a party you could get it from the hand of the man himself!

The kind of totally meaningless nonsense thst would probably never be tolerated here!

I'd say we do quite a good line in meaningless nonsense here: some of it can be quite entertaining, and especially so when the purveyor of said meaningless nonsense thinks they are making a telling point.

As NS notes, SfG is a treasure-trove of meaningless nonsense.

Don't worry - she'll be back in a week or so.
I once tried using "chicken" as a password, but was told it must contain a capital so I tried "chickenkiev"
On another occasion, I tried "beefstew", but was told it wasn't stroganoff.

I find myself having to spend more time keeping up my braille practice reading the current book, which is 'Tea at the Sunflower Café' which, the Librarian at the NLB told me, when I said I would like something lighter and funny, is something called 'chick lit'!! I'm on to the second braille volume, but whether I shall manage to follow the story through is another question!

Who do you think? She who starts lots of threads, but left recently after being accused of deception.

My theory is that the theists here finally realised they've been barking up the wrong tree all along so have left to tend their allotments instead.

just like their arguments their resolve is weak .

In fact I've just been out and about in the countryside and heard two blokes singing 'we plow the fields and scatter.....'  bless'em!

I figured everyone was reading the 600 page link about Matthew writing before Mark.

Or it may be that I'm the only one who's reading it (which is why I'm not posting much).

you're wasting your time Spud , it doesn't matter , no one but you cares .

You'd be better off discussing EastEnders VS Coronation street , at least it has more relevance .

Or you could spend your time more profitably reading 'Teach Yourself Quantum Mechanics' and then you would more understand how the universe works rather than how you believe it works .

Good luck!

My guess is that a few folk have wandered off to play on the swings for a while: hopefully they'll return to join those of us who decided to remain on the roundabout.

Well, I had been getting the missing server message since late last week until yesterday.  SusanDoris warned me about it but I didn't make a note of the workaround because it never happened to me...

He is wasting his time. Right near the beginning of the thread I posted a list of the reasons why the majority of modern scholars disagree with his thesis. He hasn't even attempted to counter any of them.

He means a lady who is named after a small, thorny flower for whom SteveH didn't particularly care.

I haven't been able to access the forum for what seems like ages but my nephew has just done something which has enabled me to once again be here.  DNS problem or something like that.
Anyway I am glad to be here again and will now have a look around.
