I think the articles about Pandora are more interesting. I'm so sad to think that those beady things aren't so popular any more. My heart bleeds.

Must get more rubies then if it keeps you invincible. I have never owned a ruby so perhaps now I will be able to.

In fairness, not everyone gets forums. It's hard to pick up on nuance and sarcasm unless you use them a lot.

Nuance and sarcasm, moi?!

[Patstone]

What is the point of sarcasm anyway, we are supposed to be a friendly lot here. Anyway each person is individual with individual tastes, and if they like Pandora bracelets thats ok with me. Individuality makes the world more interesting. Just stating a point, not being nasty or aggressive.

This level of sarcasm is called innuendo. I must admit it passed me by as my antennae are not tuned finely enough. On The other side They are talking about sex insurance, the subtlety of which escapes me entirely. Any one made a good bangle?

Yes me too, completely over my head. I didnt read the article I am afraid, so perhaps I should have before I added my twopenneth. Perhaps we dont get out enough Dennis.

[LittleGem]

Yes I had been at a computer all day yesterday so my eyes must've glazed over! #-o

Anyone up to anything interesting today?

I caught it, missy! :D or at least I think I did. If you really are devastated about pandora going bust, I'm sorry ;)

well as a completely sarcastic cow, it can be funny and it can help create a bit of banter. Most of the places I hang out are full of sarcastic posters.

as someone said, sarcasm is the lowest form of wit... but also the most effective.

proof of how my mind is in the gutter, I always use innuendo in the most suggestive sense :)

I have been trying for the last two days to make an android for hubby, he wants one as a tiepin just for a laugh. What a fiasco, the first one I made I accidentally cut his leg off, the second one was lop-sided had one arm longer than the other, so in the end I made one in PMC still not perfect, waiting for him to dry, the android not hubby!!! I will fire him tomorrow, still android not hubby!!!! Then file and polish, that could be both!!!!

You MUST post a picture when finished- sounds brilliant!
