and a pic of Mary Pope as a tiny tot. I have that one saved at home from about 7 years ago - but it's nice to see it online - she won't ever be forgotten this way.
Big smiles here.
There are some really nice pictures and self portraits there. I was just surprised to come across that site while looking for animal pictures.

I simply asked a yes or no question. At least that is what I thought it was. Then when some of you wanted more information I only answered your questions. I didn't name the site, post a link or even link the picture. All I wanted to know was did he kill the bear. Last time I asked a question regarding him was about a bunny. So, I won't ask anymore questions regarding him and animals.
and you really thought people would reply yes or no? when they had not the first clue what on earth are you talking about? do you realize how ridiculous that question is without the context which you didn't give initially?
and not asking about CdK anymore strikes me as a wise choice.
No, I don't find the question ridiculous because if someone asked one of my friends "Hey, did Monica kill a bear?" they would know the answer.
I'm surprised that Craven's ears haven't been ringing* by all this
commotion about him.
*my grandmother used to say that:
if someone talks about you, your ears are ringing!

That is not what I wrote. It really isn't worth an arguement but, that is exactly what I was talking about before. You, not just you dagmaraka, don't read what someone writes. I wrote I won't ask anymore questions about him & ANIMALS.
my favourite animal - and the first photo I ever took with my webcam - l'k posted it for me (before the Realm existed)

You are just rude, mean and cruel and that post was totally uncalled for.

i was wondering about that , i noticed that dead bear on monica's lawn
i read what you wrote. and not asking or talking about cdk anymore AT ALL still strikes me as a wise choice. that doesn't mean you will make that choice. because the choice....is yours.
so you wouldn't be one bit puzzled if a friend of yours, or actually, no- if an acquaintance of yours, one that you have sort of an unpleasant history with, would go asking your friends, out of the blue, whether you killed a bear? You would not find that one bit strange or unsettling? Because, and i can speak only for myself, of course, i'd be rather ticked off (on top of the initial WTF reaction)...
From the story I heard, the bear died from lack of food as it was awaiting her return.
Story has it that Monica had returned from a camping trip not realizing that she had won the heart of said bear after doing a wonderful rendition of the Yogi bear theme song.
tth, how did you come across raven's realm? not through an internet search, right? because msn groups photos do not pop up in internet search. just curious.

No, if someone asked a question about me it wouldn't tick me off. I don't know why it should. What ticks me off is if I am accused of something that isn't true. Questions don't bother me.
i asked if you wouldn't find it strange and puzzling. not if it would tick you off. i said it would tick ME off.

What's a tarbaby?
Something you can't get away from once you get embroiled. It keeps drawing you in and no matter how hard you try to get out of the tar you you can't get away. It's from Br'er Rabbit.
Quote:Tar-Baby was a doll made of tar and turpentine, used to entrap Br'er Rabbit in the second of the Uncle Remus stories. The more that Br'er Rabbit fought the Tar-Baby, the more entangled he became. In contemporary usage a tar baby refers to any "sticky situation" that is only aggravated by efforts to solve it.

Sorry, I just saw that you asked this. Yes, I did do an internet search. I don't keep my history though so I am not totally sure what words I entered. I will try and remember and tell you though.
Thank you, JPB for the explanation.
