Well it doesn't take much to fill it up -- either in terms of number of messages or actual content within the messages.

Well, f&*% me sideways--what did I do wrong?? I haven't posted a pic before, and apparently I don't know how.

Friday Poll: Greatest Age Difference

Another age gap story--

My 32 year old sister-in-law's 63 year old father (who is an ACTUAL self-made millionaire many times over, although perhaps not "classy" in the paigow sense) has been married four times and divorced four times. He recently introduced my sister-in-law to his new fiance, who is 31. Ouch.

When he finally returned to his community 16 years later (he went to war and then was somewhere else for a while) he was smitten with M, and they married within a year.

So, I guess that would be about 24 years.
Was their first born named TM?

TM

You are allowed to have 15 PMs. I think leagl set it that way to save space. I don't THINK that messages in your sent box count towards the limit. If this gets to be too big of a problem, we may consider increasing this number.

In the mean time, the best thing to do is to clear your inbox, and your sent box, of any messages you think do not need to be saved. As far as organizing your saved messages, you can create a folder called "Saved" or whatever, and move messages you want to keep over to that folder. Any messages you save there will count towards the 15 PM limit.

The PM service is not supposed to be an e-mail service. It is for quick messages that really don't need to be saved. If you have an important message to send to someone, you should e-mail em.

Irish Coffee Saves Lives

Coffee cocktail 'limits stroke damage'

The drug has as much caffeine as two strong cups of coffee

A 'coffee cocktail' drug could reduce the amount of damage caused by strokes, researchers say.

The drug is as potent as two cups of strong coffee combined with an alcoholic drink.

The drug - a mixture of caffeine and ethanol (alcohol), called caffeinol - had already been shown to limit damage from ischaemic strokes in animal studies. It has now been shown to be safe in a small study of human stroke patients.

Now let's not blame Christina--she was forced to wear this full-body Pepto-Bismol bottle for a charity event.

If she had her choice, she'd merely look like a $5 crack whore.

I have been pushing this combination for years as part of a healthy breakfast, and finally have some vindication.

Xtina is by no means a *large* girl, but she is no longer the stick figure she was in her teens. She suffers from the Anna Nicole problem of not realizing that she can't wear what she once could and still get away with it. Beyond the fact that that dress is horrible, the fit is awful. Sort of like the chaps she wears--not butt or like-handle* appropriate anymore.

*like-handle (since they are not quite full-blown love-handles) because she is not large, she is just maybe a size four now trying to still wear her size zeros

I don't see where it says she was forced to wear it.

The pouchy belly and widening face scream "unannounced pregnancy."

But maybe it's just me.

Thanks. I know you all are still busy but at when you have the time, it would be helpful if this limit were clearly indicated on the PM screen.

I also don't mind being reminded that I should what I can to preserve space on the server.

I may or may not be able to code that in there. It would probably be easier for me to put in into the FAQs (assuming it's not already in there...)

edit: it's in the FAQs, as are answers to most other issues.

Ghosts of the Abyss

Has anyone seen this 3D James Cameron Does the Titanic Again movie? If you get a chance, I suggest checking it out.

Which leads me to yet another fashion axiom that should be brainwashed into her--unless you are actually wrangling a steer at a rodeo at that very moment, never, never, wear chaps.

Or for God's sake, at least wear some decent underwear beneath 'em.
