I've spent most of the day in GD.... ASK ME ANYTHING
I'm beginning to think that wasn't a really good idea. My frustration level is at a new high.

1. Good God, what did you do that for?
I've been playing here in the lounge most of the day. :-) My frustration level is much less. :D

6. I think GD is like a tasting menu
sometimes you just need a little bite of this and that. I can't really take the whole menu...

9. I guess I just wanted something different....
One gets a little bored with the same cuisine every day.
Silly me!

13. no the lounge can be like taffy, brownies
beer, etc. Sometimes you need more protein? Am I carrying this metaphor too far?

14. Not at all...
Lounge sometimes carb crashes me a bit. You can't have candy with every meal.

I think I had more than my fill of protein today.

3. I stay in GD a lot lately
I've needed a break the past couple of days, though.

Why would you do that? And on a Friday even?

Are you going to the Halliburton protests?

5. I've not been in there in a long time...
I guess I just wanted to release my moral outrage before I head home for Shabbat. I wanted to leave my frustration with the world at the door by being able to vent with, what I thought, were like minded people. No such luck.

I'd love to go to the protests, but I got a full time job and a workload that would choke a whale.

11. Aw that's too bad
I work full time too so haven't been.

Sorry it didn't work out like you thought. :( Democrats are such a feisty bunch. :)

What's the best way to edit a .pdf file? I tried cut & paste but our printer is making everything turn out greyish, so the cut & paste job is really obvious.

23. that blows...
You'd need Acrobat then to edit.
Acrobat is the editor and PDF creator.
You might try using whatever local graphic prgram yoou might have.
Do a screen capture and paste it in to MS Paint (or whatever you have)

12. I wish i wore an asbestos suit in there yesterday.
Those folks are so hostile, and love to argue for no reason whatsoever. Itg was absolutely stupid. It was funny in a way.
But it sure put me in a crappy mood for most of the day.

17. I try not to take it too seriously
Everyone has their opinion and on GD they'll defend it to the death. I've been roasted plenty of times but still like all the people that did the roasting. :)
