I just want to say I just found out that I have a personal messages page! I never even knew! I'm sorry if I didn't respond to any messages--I didn't even know the thing existed! I hope you don't think I've been a creep not to answer your messages. I'll send replies back to every one of you! Just wait!

Okay group....Here's the deal.

EVERYBODY WHO READS THIS SEND MEEBO (Mbo) A PERSONAL MESSAGE!!!!

And I want to apologize for having some fun with Meebo and Caitrin on HearMe last night. We are very fortunate indeed to have two young people here with the amazing amount of knowledge and high level of maturity they have. Meebo has an excellent voice and I listened to several songs, all done quite well. I ribbed them anonymously at first about living in the same town and typing at each other instead of getting together. Considering the amount of anony crap that's been going on here lately, both of them handled it much better than many of us have over the past few weeks. Caitrin, who has shown great maturity and creativity, and Mbo are both very welcome additions here (even if the boy does need vallium--damn but I wish I had his energy).

Again, my love to the two of you and thanks for being here at the 'Cat.

MBO, since you didn't know about the personal page, I'll mention that you can trace certain threads that have information you want. My page is full of threads that I've flagged (by clicking on "trace" in the forum). That way I can go back and reference them later. Margo

usually if you have received a message it tells you when you come into the discussion forum... "you have one (or however many) active message(s)".. which you can then go off and read and archive or delete.....

Well Sakes Alive, I thought it was pronounced "Em-Bo" not "Meebo"! Live and learn!

It's ok, 'spaw. : ) I have enough of a sense of humor to deal with it. However, if you hadn't come clean when you did...
And Vixen, it is Em-bo. 'spaw just says Meebo for the sake of orneryness. : )

Now, I don't mean to be difficult, but would I be out of line to ask what an Mbo is? I mean, is it an acronym, an anchronism, or an abbreviation? Or is it a Swahili name? Or short for Hambone? I hope all my questions don't prompt an Mbo-lism ,

Amos, my real name is Matthew. But thanks to an episode of "Home Improvement," where Tim Allen became Tim-bo and his friend became Jim-bo, my sisters started calling me M-bo. As I started calling them C-bo and K-bo (also know as B-bo). It's a real nickname of mine, and often use it when talking to myself! Did I mention an episode of "Are You Afraid Of The Dark" had a sinister clown in it named Z-bo, and that even further the popularity of our nicknames.

You know, that really made no sense whatsoever, _gargoyle. You might be better at insulting people if you could do it in a slightly more articulate fasion.
