Actually, church politics is quite interesting! And difficult! I mean, at the end of the day, you're still obligated to like one another and work together, something that would be a great shock if it were to happen on Capitol Hill.

I'm still attempting to parse that one. I'm possibly just not (negative) the type of person that doesn't (negative) want to be board. Double negative, canceling out, thus, positive. Therefore, I am the type of person who likes to be bored? Well, uh, okay. Go ahead: bore me.

Then why should I bid you adieu before then? Would it not be a false farewell? |

Jared, I do think that that is poor grammar! ...church politics is quite interesting... I believe that they are interesting. Am I wrong?
I like your theory at the end of the day... One I which was entirely true.

I think you type/think too much. Though this is one of the few times that you have mad sense while rambling.
And if I did chose to bore you, you would be too bored to read the long story and I too bored to type it.

I shan't say another word on this note. Except that I would like to read my farewells be fore I leave then waiting a week and wonder who actually noticed the thread. And last minute things are hardly my way of doing things. And then David does not leave tonight and you wished him farewell... But he's doing something interesting. Forgive me (if you can do that before I leave) - I forgot. |

Yes, you are. Politics is a singular noun. |

MX! Has your speaking with Jared driven you to choose a political avatar!? Is it catching!?
(suddenly I feel an urge to use Abe Lincon as my avatar... must... fight it!) |

(Final parenthetical: okay, anyone: -- and yes, that's two colons in one sentence -- [this sentence is getting unweildy, isn't it?] who wrote the books poorly referenced above? A to-be-determined prize to the person who can associate them with the titles used above.
(Prize: the right to go to one's public library, check out the books listed above and read them, a suggestion I certainly need to continue to follow regarding them.) |
(Decides to take a small excursion down to the library to pick up a copy of The Road to Serfdom by Friedrich A. Hayek and Free to Choose by Milton Friedman).
(Later decides to forgoe the continuous usage of the parenthetical and instead spend further time at the library reading captivating titles such as Not So Free to Choose).
Okay, okay. Realistically, I've read, at best, perhaps a chapter of the latter title.
*Saunters off, somewhat ashamed*
(Edited (and seemingly useless) parenthetical post script: Supposing one DID attend a camp associated with national security. Would if follow that they would actually be given clearance to tell about it? Furthermore, I'm considering revoking my membership in the organization....to have my covert meetings in the jungles of Bangladesh completely overlooked by members of the TH is simply unnacceptable)! |

Hmmm... a posting about grammar. Care to explain "One I which was entirely true."? :)

You see, for me (a Connie who is always messed up) to find something wrong with Jared (a Eugene) is so sweet! And that is not bad grammar it's called bad spelling...  And need you help Jared? He would have had enough fun with that himself. |
