Lotus Makes it a Triple-Header...

Yep.  Now the girl's gotten herself a THIRD little Toothbrusher.  Busy little chatter-box, ain't she?


CONGRATULATIONS!! Lotus Eater

It is an awesome moment.

Not sure what to say here.

Nolefan, hand me that Taser, please.
<Oh, stop that, you twisted fiend!>
Congrats, Lotus, and thank you for contributing so much to this place. You've been a major voice in making us what we are today.

Here's to ya, baby.

Blimey, I must talk a lot!  And for such a peaceful little thing too!

Checking into the forum is an addiction, so new members - please be aware that this could seriously eat into your social life, your ability to leave the house, travel or write the definitive (name that country) novel you have always been planning! 

    For the friends I've made here, for the laughter and fun you have all provided, for the good discussions that make me think, for the ideas that I can use for my classes, for the info that makes living here just that bit easier.

When did you...? How did you...? What did you...? 

Ah well, here's the round of your most favorite poison, LE!!! 

It's true, it is addictive.  And reading Lotus's take on most things is just as addictive.  I always look to see what her opinion is, even though we do occasionally disagree, it adds to the spice of life.

This would be a different forum without you, LE.  Thanks.  And don't go getting a swollen head about it!   

Lotus Eater Congratulations and thank you very much indeed for all that you contribute. People like me,with little or no experience of teaching and/or China can and do learn so much from you.How you find time to do what you do, absolutely amazes me.

Ooooo! So yappy!!  Too much free time, Lotus. Go out somewhere and enjoy life!!

The amazing thing is that Con and Lotus had to have at least a couple thousand posts each already between the original site and the Alamo. That's a whole lot of wankering! How do y'all do it?

I think they have to practice quite a bit.

They both have opinions and both reply to posts rather than just reading the post, thinking 'thats cool', and reading the next thread.  I don't comment enough when I read (or my post count would be higher).  It isn't so much wankering as just reading and adding a little more information to the post. 

Keep up the good work.   

Hats off, Lotus.  When are you going to gather all those amazing photos together and publish already?

Checking into the forum is an addiction

It's true. I've signed up with various other forums, posted a couple of times, then got bored and drifted off. Why's this one different for me? Well, great company for one thing, and also I can say what I really think and get away with it.

  x 100, especially to LE.

3000 posts is very impressive even by my standards (Oh, OK, frequency) of posting.

.....I can say what I really think and get away with it.

Just so long as (1) you don't say anything "controversial" loudly enough to be (over)heard by the Fire Wallers, Puhleez.  And (2) you play nice with the other folks here - no personal attacks.

We love to celebrate our chattiness, Foscolo.   Heck.  We love to celebrate most everything.  Glad you are with us.

And Lotus keeps on posting......(just to get back to our OP)....
