My posts have the measles!

[clueless adventurer]

I hope it's not some kind of comupter virus, but all of my posts have a little black dot on them.

If I have somehow infected the boards, please be sure that it was completely accidental and I'll do whatever it takes to clean them up.

I'm real sorry!

It's okay clueless. I would pat you on the back but I don't want the measles.

I am not totally sure what you are talking about, but if you are talking about the envelopes next to the threads that you have posted on that is supposed to happen (sometimes they have to take the black dots away if the boards are slow) There should be a black dot on the envelope next to every thread you have posted to.

Phew! Thank you!!!! I was very worried about that.

MosMom, I guess you CAN give me that pat on the back!! Isn't that great!!

Alisha (can I call you Alisha?) - I undertand you to mean that black dots make the boards go slower? Should I not use periods when I post? I want to help out here as much as I can!

Who the heck are you?

 

[clueless adventurer]

I can't tell you that!! The travel information company I work for would be pretty upset to know that I am giving away the same information that they charge people for!!!

I can give you a hint though!

I'm not associated in any way, shape, or form to Kevin Bacon, so you can't play that game with me!

I just mean that they took the black dots on the envelopes away for a while, I think it was because the boards were going slow and they were taking up bandwidth, and they didn't want to take other things, like signatures away, but they got better equiptment, and gave us they black dots back, it has nothing to do with periods in a sentence.

I hate to break it to you but it isn't the measles.... it's webdot-itiss!!!

 

[clueless adventurer]

Thank you, Alisha.

I thought it might be periods because whenever I see one, I stop for just a little while before I read more. I figure that if these boards did that it could really slow things down.

I think I understand now. Thanks again!

webdot-itis!!! LOL!

Tell me, is this were the dot in dot com comes from???

 

[MosMom]

Clueless,

Do you have any relatives in England by the names of Cuthbert & Veronica by chance?

 

[clueless adventurer]

You can now! You now know me, I went to High School and had a few conversations with Mandi Rudd (Paul Rudd's sister) who obviously knows Paul Rudd (Mike on Friends), who knows Jennifer Anniston who was in Picture Perfect with .... KEVIN BACON!!! You have exactly six degrees of Kevin Bacon!!!

Nice to know ya- play on!

Ooh, ooh, me too! My best friend's great-uncle is the late Jack Swigert, who was on Apollo 13 and played by Kevin Bacon in the movie. So now everyone on the DIS has two ways to get to Kevin Bacon.

LOL @ Mosmom. You know...I've been wondering the same thing!
