Futzing with settings at the request of Easynews, and suddenly ABPA - and
~only~ ABPA - seems to have dried up like a banana slug on a hot August
afternoon.

Of course, if something ~is~ broken, I'll never get a reply.

Oh bother...

Reply - I've had a similar problem with only one binaries group - not this
one either.

I've been wondering what happened to you.

Hello old timer -

Your server must be shunning you.

There have been well over 10,000 posts in the last two weeks.

I for one am sick of this nonsense.

I didn't killfile the culprit, but set my reader to sort alphabetisally so I
can avoid the mess.

No problems here.
Killfiled some annoying people but enough people left.

Ignored this as long as I could stand.

Now play nice Hermione.

You and Einstein are more than welcome to take this
outside to the email parking lot.

Otherwise, play nice.

Just use common sense with the email (pull YOUR HEAD
out). Contrary to what Einstein ignorantly and falsely
accuses and what you think, the information in the
header is quite valid.

Or maybe just XNews. Back up and running, with a time out to set up a new
computer that then promptly went teats up on me after three days. Grmbl
grmbl...

Golly. I step out for a moment and you guys just run roughshod all over
the joint!

Everybody play nice or I'll turn this group around and we ~aren't~ going
to Disneyland!

And give Barbie's head back to your sister...

Sex is one of the most wholesome, beautiful and natural experiences that money can buy.

A virile, young Italian gentleman was relaxing at his favorite bar in Rome, when he managed to attract a spectacular young blonde.
Things progressed to the point where he invited her back to his apartment, and after some small talk, they retired to his bedroom and made love.
After a pleasant interlude, he asked with a smile, "So, you finish?"
She paused for a second, frowned and admitted, "No."
Surprised, the young man reached for her and the love making resumed.
This time she thrashes about wildly and there are screams of passion.
The lovemaking ends, and again, the young man smiles, and again he asks, "So, you finish?"
And again, after a short pause, she returns his smile, cuddles closer to him, and softly says, "No."
Stunned, but damned if this woman is going to outlast him, the young man reaches for the woman again.
Using the last of his strength he barely manages it, but they climax simultaneously, screaming, bucking, clawing and ripping the bed sheets.
The exhausted man falls onto his back, gasping.
Barely able to turn his head, he looks into her eyes, smiles proudly, and asks again, "So, you finish?"
Barely able to speak, she whispers in his ear, "No! I Norwegian."
