Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board The Moaning, Groaning, I just want to Vent thread

some of mine. It's douchebag season and they've caught the limit.

Oh would that douchebags were ever out of season.

Remember you never lose friends, you just find out who really aren't.

And the real friends can help you deal with getting rid of those douchebags-in-disguise.

Assuming they aren't also d-i-d's.

But have hope.

I'm sure some of them are genuine And times like this is when they prove themselves.

Let's hope so, but keep an eye out. I've been too disappointed to say anything less careful.

It just rained, so you know traffic in the capital's gonna be hell again!!!

Capital of what/where?

What capital do you think I'd be referring to?

Is this another answering questions w/questions, alluvasudden?

Honestly, if I knew I wouldn't have asked. I don't read every thread and sometimes I miss some in the threads I do read, so as many times as you may have mentioned where you are I've missed it.

Or forgot it. Repeatedly. I am quite capable of this.

I thought Phillipines, but you said no longer, and your location is currently listed as "Wouldn't you like to know?"

Sorry about that, Shiny. I am indeed referring to Manila. I was just being cheeky (and quite a bit thoughtless considering I was coming off two consecutive 14-hour work days). Have a virtual bottle of beer with me as a peace offering?

No need for a peace offering, I didn't consider it an act of war. I was just confused.

And still am. If Manila is "the Capital" and you're not in the Philippines, where the heck are you?

I'm glahear that we're all good

I am in the Philippines. I'm not sure when I mentioned that I wasn't, but it was probably during a short trip.

On an unrelated note, I dropped my external Hard Drive and now it's busted I'm thinking hard about which files I had in there that are irreplaceable.

On the plus side, it's got me thinking about more reliable means of stroage. Now I'm taking pics of all my trust fund certificates and uploading them onto a private album, so at least I'll always have copies.

That would be earlier this week, here. Clearly you left the Philippines just to make sure I'd be wrong. My, the expense you go through to win that game.

And there isn't even a winner for that game.

Er, I'm pretty sure the Philippines is west of the International Date Line (IDL) but east of the Prime Meridian.

The IDL is between Alaska and Russia (which the PH is west of), while the Prime Meridian runs through the United Kingdom (which the PH is east of).

Ibby, for your files use a couple of drives configured RAID. Anything you save on one will be automatically backed up on the other.

I'm sure you're right about the IDL and all that, but I have no idea why you brought it up. ::

I'm referring to my post that the next poster will be posting from the Philippines, and you said nope, but you are from the Philippines.

So did you skip out of the country earlier this week?

Oh, I thought you were referring to the post re the IDL and Prime Meridian, since the link you posted went straight to the last page! My bad It's probably my settings too, I think I have 25 posts per page. I was scrolling up and down looking for which post you were referring, but didn't see any on that particular page.

I remember the Philippine post now. Actually, what made your post wrong was the spelling - Philippines has 1 "L" and 2 "P"s. I made the Ls and Ps bold in my reply but I guess it wasn't that noticeable

Thanks, VL! I'll look it up. That's be a big help, it's a pain having to remember exactly what I saved.

Aha, link trouble!

I think the bold letters were noticeable, however I didn't get it.

Okay confusion resolved.

And wonderfully so, might I add.

We owe ourselves pats on the back.

That was a lot easier before I started working out.

all that added muscle makes it hard to reach behind yourself?
