  • Give it up ISTL, if you look at bootski's posts s/he is clearly just trolling, and all you're doing by responding is feeding his/her ego and you're also clogging up threads with this nonsense. I noticed on a different thread bootski tried and failed to get a rise out of me (and will probably do the same after reading this). Just ignore it - the moderate majority on here can see what bootski is doing and, like me, probably wondering why you're falling for it.

    I dare say that s/he will be PPR'd soon enough anyway.

    I will, I have noticed it seems to be one of bootski's traits.
    I was just trying to understand what their problem was even though it seems there was not any at all

    I wonder if anyone wants to resurrect a year earlier thread and see if the same people said the same things? It would be very interesting (sarcasm) to plot the predictions and actuality on a chart and compare which group of people is the more accurate in their forecasts.

    With a bit of luck we might all be here in a year or so, and we can play the game all over again.

    Cleaver - where are those pretty charts icon7.gif

    Hmme Tumbleweeds - that's the word I was looking for. Nevertheless, to put an orange through that is very cruel.

    & you did say you loved me, more than once. People don't always say what they mean so I won't hold it against you - but do understand you might have regretted saying it the next day.

    You are "quite normal" in that respect and I don't blame you for taking it back:T
