Why is it that I'm always a second too late on the reply button
I've gotten used to not responding, because by the time I do, someone else has already said my semi-witty remark, and I don't want to just write something like

"uh-huh!" or "you got that right"

Any ideas on what to write when I have nothing to add to the original message or a reply, but want to reply? I'm tired of just reading most of the time!

2. I try to avoid brain-fry
I'm pacing myself, and hope to have at least one witticism left on my, you know, last resting and breathing place. I can't use them all up at once!

3. Not enough may have been said.
I am sure that you could contribute by adding something the originator may have missed.

7. Instead of agreeing you can say:
"I just did the Funky Alphonso"

14. Just testing here since I don't think
I will interrupt an important conversation. So please pardon the interruption. If I got rid of that damn red X...then I was successful.
