Top of the Page

Read this as if Andy Rooney was speaking...
"You ever have a time on a thread, where you want to make a "Quick response" to a reply, and don't want to use the quote feature? So you make a comment to something that was written, "just above" where you want to post your reply,...only to have it appear at the "top of the next page", and no-one has a clue what you're referencing?" Well, it happens to me all the time. it's sorta like every intersection I come to has a red light. Am I exaggerating? Of course. But not fully. Generally, I try to be a "glass is 1/2 full" type guy, even tho I'm not. It's difficult, when you're keeping score, and history has a way of repeating itself.
Don't mind me, cause I'm just venting, being home on a Sat. with a crummy cold, after working mucho O/T last few weeks. The up-side is, I have an excuse to sit in frt of my stove, and watch the blue ladies dance, as the last of our long winter passes through.

I kind of have the opposit problem. When I think the next post is going to be at the top of the next page I typicly put in some interesting photos. Then it ends up being at the bottom of the page. I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but it seems that posts at the top of a page get much more traction than ones at the bottom of the page.

I hope you feel better soon Joe! A hot cup of tea with some honey and three fingers of any good Irish Whisky goes great with a cold and those blue ladies.

A lot of times I try to get a reply in just to find that a couple few others already wrote what I was gonna say..

Hope ya feel better Joe! I'll be burning till first week of May unless we get a really long warm spell before hand. Just think, next year you'll be in a recliner next to that BB you have out in the garage.. You get one picked out yet?

Hope ya get to feelin better, Joe

And may all your posts be on the correct page forever

I appreciate the quotes when following a thread. Please help me out, how to use the quote 'thingy'? Thank you.

Quit complainin--If I write more then 4 or 5 sentences, I get a pop up page that says--cannot display this page. Been goin on for a couple months. Hence--short & sweet or not so sweet posts!

when you want to respond to a post simply click on the quote box in that particular post and it will appear in the white "post a reply" box and simply start typing as if you are talking to that person and hit submit....now try it on this post.

I thought it was "I see, said the blind man, to his deaf daughter." (No matter)
Thanx for the wishes people, and I just think you can call it the "crappy weather blues". I can see ground in some parts of my backyard, that I haven't seen since last season, but my arborvitaes have new snow on them from today's blast. Yet the oats are still above freezing. "Crazy this year".

I don't worry if it's top, middle, or bottom of a page. I just assume that whoever is reading the post is reading along all parts of the post.

...... then reality sneaks in !

The version I heard was "I see said that blind man, as he picked up his hammer and saw !!"

Oh yeah. I forgot about that Rick. Good job.
