Gardner) Date: Thu, 6 Feb 1997 11:13:22 -0600 Subject: Re: R/S ... SORTA TAN ... " WHAT IF .... " Well...I have had a big diapointment with someone on the list already, and I don't want it to happen again! (I will even say who...Christiane Britton) So, hopefully I won't join a swap with a person who can't be depended on to fulfill their obligations. I don't know about some people, but if I were to screw up a swap and not send back stuff, I would be embarrased to show my e-mail self again on the list. I certainly wouldn't have the nerve to try to host another swap! Now if something happens in a persons life that they can't finish a swap or fulfill their SS obligations, that's understandable. All they usually have to do is let everyone know and get someone else to finish up for them. We're understanding of lifes ups and downs, but to just blow it off like its not important makes me mad. Especially when I work hard on my cards and pay my postage and send money for return postage and never get anything. Maybe if someone tries to host a swap and they didn't come through on one before and didn't try to make it good....someone should just post to the list what happened and then let people decide then if they want to take a chance on it. becky-bear At 11:55 AM 2/6/97 -0400, you wrote: >**WHAT IF....** someone (Madame "X") on the list has not fulfilled their >obligation as hostess (i.e., didn't return swap cards), or if someone >(Madame "Y") on the list absconded with $$ sent to them for items that were >never sent out.

I cant decide what to get her to teach as her list is sooo long! She did circle her new and hot classes. So anyone whos ever taken classes let me know which one you loved. Anyone who want to sign up email me or call 206/481-2340. She should be here Thur. before Puyallup Convention, think its the 16th(?). We are still working out the final details such as which classes, price, time, day, etc. But for the most part Im guessing on or around the 16th, one of her new classes, afternoon maybe evening, around $20.00. Is that specific enough? Will let everyone know more as we start to gell.

I can understand being ticked off about getting headers and blank messages, *but* what is wrong with not getting a message that *you* wrote to the list?? To me it just saves space and time in downloading. I don't need to get somethink I wrote. You can always send a test message to see if your massages are going out. From the volume on the list I can't see that too many posts are not going out. I'm not getting my own posts but I'm getting responses to the ones I send. I'm happy. Well I'm reslly ticked at Netcom, but that is another story....

I am sorry to post this to the list, but I can't seem to get through to your e-mail addy. Yes, I got your check, and your package has already gone out. Thanks a ton! I do have the Morning coffee, love, hear swirls, and the gardening girl. Descriptions as follows: Morning coffee: A window with a coffee pot and two cups in it overlooking a valley Love: Love written in floral letters with angels on each letter Gardening Girl: CUTE! A girl holding a purse made of a house. A sunflower is growing in a watering can beside her. A pot of tulips is on her other side. She has a spade and glove in her pocket. She has on a dress with a apron. Her hat has a sunflower on it. Heart Swirls: A bunch of small hearts in a couple of sizes with swirls around them. Great for small background stamp. I will hold all of these until you let me know which ones you want. Thanks! kellyd ------------------------------ From: Janet Detter Margul Date: Thu, 06 Feb 1997 10:52:01 -0600 Subject: Re: TAN: Verdict I actually see this as a triumph of our legal system. OJ was found "not guilty" of murder, because there remained doubts, at least in some of the jurors' minds. OJ was found "liable" for the deaths of Goldman and Brown, because a preponderance of the evidence shows he did it. There's a difference, this isn't double jeopardy or anything close. This is, in my head anyway, as close to justice as we'll see in this case. I wouldn't have felt it was right for him to be convicted in the criminal trial, =I= had some doubts. But it feels right for him to be held civilly liable. ========================================================================= Janet Detter Margul | Real women don't have hot flashes...

If you accidentally double click (hand slips) READ the default will kick in and every note you highlighted will open giving you mucho note windows open (oops).
