40 post away from 9000, it's time to play, ask me anything...

[Longgrain]

As long as it has nothing to do with "you know who" and "you know who".

I'm sick of hearing about them.

[CottonBear]

1. What are you having for dinner tonight?

[Longgrain]

5. ROFL...

A Cuban cigar and a Guinness.

[CottonBear]

Excellent choice. Not nutritiously balanced, but good nonetheless!

:)

[Longgrain]

48. Bread and water..

That's all we need to servive...

[CottonBear]

[Wapsie B]

2. I always fall back on the oldie but goodie....

Why do you hate America?

Early congrats on the milestone btw.

[Longgrain]

7. Poetic answer, because

I've given them all,

and now I have nothing.

[skygazer]

3. What's your opinion of the IRA?

[Longgrain]

11. They need to find another way to get there rocks off...

Try good friends, good beer, and good women instead.

[davidinalameda]

[Longgrain]

12. Nah, I'm having too much fun...

"ANOTHONY! TIME FOR DINER!"

[Left Is Write]

6. Who?

[Longgrain]

13. Me, and you

and a dog named Boo.

:silly:

[Left Is Write]

24. How you love bein' a free man?

[Longgrain]

26. I remember to this day...

the bright red Georgia clay,
how it stuck to the tires after the summer rain . . .
Will-power made that ol' car go,
a woman's mind told me that it's so,
Oh! how I wish we were back on the road again . . .

Me an' you an' a dog named Boo,
travelin' and livin' off the land . . .
Me an' you an' a dog named Boo,
How I loved bein' a free man . . .

I can still recall,
the wheat fields of St. Paul,
and the mornin' we got caught robbin' from an old hen . . .
Old MacDonald, he made us work,
but then he paid us for what it was worth,
another tank of gas an' back on the road again . . .

< repeat chorus >

Well, I'll never forget that day,
we motored stately into Big L.A.
the lights of the city put settling-down in my brain . . .
Though it's only a month or so,
that ol' car is a buggin' us to go,
you gotta get away,
get back on the road again . . .

< repeat chorus >

8. Congratulations

I feel so dumb asking this question.
How do you start a thread? I have never started one because I never figured out how and I've been here about seven months.
Feel free to give me a dope slap. Sometimes I feel like giving one to myself.

:hi:

[Longgrain]

15. Alright, serious answer

Click the icon at the top of your screen (where all the other icons are lined up) that says "post". It's between "surch" and "poll"

You'll be given a form just like you do when you reply to another persons thread.

Hope that helps. :hi:

[Sanity Claws]

21. Thanks!!

So that's what "post" meant!!
Wow, am I dumb!!
Great artwork in your signature line -- love the colors and its sense of freedom

[Longgrain]

22. You're welcome...

I painted it me-self...:blush:

[Parche]

10. questions

How do you feel about that runaway bride?

Will Bob be voted off on survivor?

Will Bill win the bachlorette?

Will cleophus be the next American Idol?

[Longgrain]

17. Oy! I don't watch much T.V. anymore, so I don't have the answers

to your questions.

I'm still wondering who shot J.R.

:shrug:

[Book Lover]

14. Do you watch Lost?

I'm up for some gossip about what they're going to do with Locke once they find him...

[Longgrain]

18. See post seventeen in this thread...

Anything else...I'm Lost?

[Book Lover]

19. OK, then...

Did you keep or sell back your college textbooks?

[Longgrain]

23. Some of them I sold back, most of my Art History and English lit books

I kept tho...

It was always the science and math ones I sold back.

[Book Lover]

25. As I work on History books, I'm glad to

know that you sold back the "hardside" ones :-)

[iconoclastic cat]

16. How are the art sales going?

[Longgrain]

20. Oh thanks for reminding me, there was someone I was supposed to PM

But I got so caught up in Cuban-paddy mania I forgot.

I'll try to get back to them tomorrow night.

Other than that, check out the Marketplace forum. I got a thread up there.

[Panda1]

27. Congrats.

My Question: Since you registered....how many posts a day?
:bounce:

Congratulations on being a fast typist. :applause:



By the time my fingers get to the keyboard my thoughts have already been expressed in several different posts.




I should be in the 700 club for another few weeks, at least. Hahaha.

[Longgrain]

28. I'm not exactly sure how many posts I've made per day...

Some days I only make five or six, other days as many as fifty...

There were two weeks after the election I didn't post at all, and another week when my computer was infected with virus's that I barely made twenty posts.

Then of course there was that day I escaped the 700 club in less than 24 hours.

It depends on how I'm feeling I suppose.

[SOteric]

29. What's your favourite kind of tree?

[Longgrain]

30. The Sago Palm, but it technically it isn't a tree...

Cypresses are beautiful, tho being from New England I could always stand by a classic pine.

But my favorite tree was the apple tree that grew in my back yard as a kid. I still have very fond memories of that tree.

[SOteric]

32. Mmm... fruit bearing trees can be so lovely.

I'm partial to the Blue Spruce, myself. And old growth notty pines, - and Weeping Willows.

[Longgrain]

35. Hummm, there was an Arboretum I used to visit

Out in Brookline MA, that had a lot of strange trees, branches at right angles and all.

You're making me want to visit there some day soon.

[SOteric]

39. Yep, yep. I was just thinking

that the Japanese Gardens at the UW arboretum will be opening up at the end of the month.

:bounce:

[blue neen]

31. Could you please tell me how to post pictures?

I'd appreciate it! :hi:

[Longgrain]

34. You'll need either a personal web space

Or a free server account, such as Photobucket.com. They'll explain to you how to do it...

After that, it's simply a mater or copying and pasting the URL.

It takes a while to figure out, but once you get used to it, you'll find it's easy.

[blue neen]

36. Thanks!

That's a great picture, BTW.

[ralps]

33. So Longgrain, Are you there yet? How are you doing today?

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Longgrain]

38. I'm doing good ralps, hanging in there ya know...

Despite some personal displeasure, I'm doing fine.

And you?

[ralps]

45. I'm doing good, although I miss JimmyJazz

:cry: :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Longgrain]

46. Yeah I miss her too

Despite the falling out her and I had.

I do hope she comes back...:-(

[Zuni]

37. Is Jack Chick considered high art?

because I think he is dreamy :loveya:

[Longgrain]

40. As far as art is concerned...

I can draw better than that on one of my low days!

It looks like some comic book hack from th 40's hasn't given up yet.

Besides there's a huge difference between art and manipulation.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

41. Hi, Longgrain,

Wow, almost 9000 posts! This is one impressive number, IMHO! Now, what to ask? Hmmmm....
Are you working on a painting right now? What's it about?

Early congratulations on hitting the big NINE THOUSAND, dear Longgrain!



:woohoo: :woohoo:


:loveya: :loveya:


:toast: :toast:

[Longgrain]

42. No paintings in the works at the immediate time

Got to go to work tomorrow you know, but I'll be back on it soon.

(sorry I neglected to P.M. about that other painting...I'll get back to you soon...)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

43. NO PROBLEM, MY DEAR LONGGRAIN!

I know you'll get to me eventually; I'm not worried one little bit! By the way, is Anthony your middle name? I see the "A" on your paintings! My husband says the Great Detective misses nothing!


:hi:


:loveya:

[Longgrain]

44. Yes, Anthony is my middle name...

For some reason, when I was a kid, and my mother was angry with me, she used to call me "Mister Anthony"...

Then I'd go hide in the apple tree in my backyard.

[Longgrain]

47. *** 15 more post to go ***

Anyone else?

[Panda1]

49. Yes

Just noticed you are a Dylan fan.
I'm off to express outrage over there. :silly:

[Longgrain]

50. Seeming to be the Chimes of Freedom flashing

Check us out in the Dylan Group.

We're nice folks.

[dudoll]

51. Where to you find the time?

To post so much??? :)

[Longgrain]

52. Single, don't like T.V. too much

Plus I've made too many friends here who I enjoy talking to on-line, many who've I met out there in the RW.

Futhermore, welcome to DU dudoll.

:hi:

[dudoll]

53. Thanks for the Welcome

Hopefully I can get to know some people here...

[Longgrain]

54. Just be honest, and be yourself,

thats what I did....

I think you'll like us, once you get to know us.

[Longgrain]

55. ONE AWAY!!! Who wants to ask me the last question?

Some thing elusive.

Something personal.

All inquiries will not be ignored.

[Longgrain]

56. What is your personal ambition in life?

:D
