30 May 05 - 04:39 AM (#1495933) Subject: RE: BS: Don't let her get away ! From: Bunnahabhain It's a fake, or at least the press mentions are... But even so: There were three Yellow gypsies came to our door. They came brave and boldly-o. And one sang high and the other sang low And the other sang a raggle taggle gypsy-o. It was upstairs, downstairs the lady went, Put on her all her clothes o, And it was the cry all around her door; "She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" It was late that night when the lord came in, Inquiring for his lady-o, And the servant girl's reply to him was; "She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" "Then saddle for me my milk-white steed And bring to me my tracker, And I will ride and I'll seek me bride, She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" He rode east and he rode west He rode north and south also, And when he used his GPS It was there that he spied his lady-o. "Yerra, why did you leave your house and your land, Why did you leave your money-o? Why did you leave your only wedded lord All for the raggle taggle gypsy-o?" "Yerra what do I care for me house and me land? What do I care for money-o? How did you find me a-lying here? I'm away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" "You've gone and left you house and home, You've gone and left you baby; But tonight, I'd not you found, If it wasn't for you panties-o" |

From: JohnInKansas There are several product developments going on in the attempt to produce "polymer" integrated circuits that theoretically could be woven into or "applied" onto clothing. A very few demo devices have been shown, although none with the sleek lines modeled at the link. There have been promises that "someday soon ..." I didn't see a price tag, but from the few reports available it would be cheaper to just buy her a full length mink and then call FoA - and let them keep track of her. John |

My father loved the parodies that were spun off from that song. I don't care for the remark about dating teenaged daughters and their fathers requiring these chastity panties either. In one short paragraph it manages to promote a whole collection of sexist ideas and subscribe to the old double standard regarding how teenaged girls may behave versus how teenaged boys may behave. Best not to go there unless you want the thread hijacked big time! SRS |

I thank Amos for understanding that I was referring to the 'natural possessiveness and obsessive protectiveness of fathers for daughters'. Times may have changed but there are still plenty of fathers out there who 'worry' about their 'vulnerable' daughters. It was by no means a reflection on women, their morality or their choices in life. Relax. |

01 Jun 05 - 09:36 AM (#1497353) Subject: RE: BS: Don't let her get away ! From: Wolfgang Now you mention it, Mr. Red, I think I'll have to change my doctor. The stupid man takes my heart rate at my wrist and once, in an overnight test, even at my little finger. If he even doesn't know where the heart is.... Seriously, you could of course take the heart rate at that place as well for the heart rate is perfectly correlated with the ebb and flow in the blood flow even at the periphery of the body. A bit out of phase, of course, but as you surely know a measurement of a frequency isn't affected by that. Wolfgang |

Thank you for your interest in this revolutionary new product.<<< Set of 7 Basics (1/day): $650.00 They're not unnatractive. However, I'd be very suspicious if my husband, who is not davetnova, brought me home a package of seven, sensible-looking and comfortable cotton panties as a gift! Itchy, black lacy nylon panties designed to be worn for maybe 10 minutes.. no problem... white cotton - I'd be asking questions. |

From: GUEST,M.Ted I am sure you are a fine person, Dave's Wife, so I'll go through it again, with helps-- The amusing homing panties are at: http://forgetmenotpanties.contagiousmedia.org/about.html When you trim the "forgetmenotpanties. " from the address, you are left with "contagiousmedia.org" which is the website where the forgetmenot panties page is in the first place. "contagiousmedia.org" explains the whole project, and has links to other parts of the project(including "Black People Love Us!"), as well as links to press coverage of the project-- You will remember, from your careful reading, that the idea behind the project was to create websites that addressed certain issues in such an amusing or controversial way that everyone who read them would email the link to everyone that they knew, creating so much interest that the press would ultimately cover it-- Got it? |

03 Jun 05 - 12:44 PM (#1499293) Subject: RE: BS: Don't let her get away ! From: Dave'sWife ahhh.....I C Now. Thanks for helping the Intellectually Handicapped. I wasn't paying attention to the first web address and didn't bother clicking on it again - that's what I get for being lazy! I did look at all the stuff on the actual page suggesting that these panties were made by a Japanese company and found that slightly amiss. I also thought it was a bit of a giveaway that their various shots of the panties for sale in quantity didnt match the model of panty they said it was from the single purchase. Still, I thought it was a wacky enough idea that somebody might take them up on it and create the real thing. You wait... it will out! Homing Device panties are in our future. Well, maybe not in all our futures.. just in the future of tmankind as a productif you catch my meaning. (I'm still gonna be very suspucious if my husband, who is not davetnova, ever brings home sensible knickers as a gift!) I think the best parodies skirt the edge of reality such as that 'Black people like us' site - that really made me squirm since I know people who say things such as found on that site. I wish when you clicked on Blickified links, it brough up a new window instead of having us leave the Mudcat. |

03 Jun 05 - 02:55 PM (#1499433) Subject: RE: BS: Don't let her get away ! From: PoppaGator I figured it out for myself last night. The words "contagiousmedia" do not appear in the "blackpeopleloveuse" URL, but they do appear in the panties-site name, which is where we were starting from anyway. Duh! For those who haven't already found it and looked it up, the white couple featured in blackpeopleloveus are brother and sister. She's a standup comic in New York, and he is most notable for having instigated, saved, and published a hilarious excahnge of emails with Nike Customer Service that reveals the company's refusal to sell him a pair of made-to-order sneakers with the word "sweatshop" monogrammed onto them.
