It looks to me that there are more members from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania than any other or state or province?

How can this be? There are many states that have a much greater population than PA.

Could this be do to that PA residents are more net savvy
therefor more intelligent vs. the rest of the country do to our Quaker based educational system?

I would like to think your right Lawrance. But where do you get you data from. The S.E. Pa luncheon was a big success.Maybe next year we will have more.
I only see a few new members on site from Pa. It seems to me, that there are a lot of members from the south east states.
Maybe as the site grows and there could be discussions or threads that are more geographic. This is a great site and is beneficial to all members.

Lawrence: I suspect all of us in PA are sitting waiting for the weather to break. From other threads, it sounds as if we were several hundred miles south, we could be out mowing. Those who are now spending their days doing useful work don't have time to browse this board. Soon, we will not have time either!

Maybe PA's tax-free time zone for PCs last Summer and a few weeks ago worked - more PCs in the hands of PA residents...

I think the COMMON in Commonwealth says it all about PA. By the way, if you were half as brilliant as you think you are, then maybe you could have spelled the word "observation" correctly.

No offense, just an "Obsersation". :D

Not to take sides, but I think Stones right. I'm from Pittsburgh, born and raised there. Lived there for 37 years. Then I used my "net savvy and inteligence" and moved to Florida!!!LOL

Funny that reminds me of a quote:

Writing like an 8-year-old is disgraceful and disrespectful to the rest of the members of this forum.

If you are either to lazy or to stupid to use a spelling and grammar checker one should keep their thoughts to themselves. That quote can be found at this thread

Hey Ed thousands of cheapo senior citizens have left PA this year and are heading your way.

Now that there gone from the commonwealth their former housing is occupied by younger people who are productive members of society, who are willing to pay non-depression era pricing for goods and services.

thanks LakeG...that was a little stroll down memory lane!

that's the STONE we used to love and appreciate!

uh...and by the way mister stone, when you say "do to"...uh...don't you mean "due to"?

spell checker won't catch that one but you might try GRAMATIC!;)

Back to your corners boys and don't come out fightin' till you hear the sound of the bell!

Very funny. When I saw the word "observation" spelled wrong and Stones name I figured it must be on purpose to get more people to look at the thread.

Oh come on, don't give him an easy out! He busts other people's chops around here all the time. I took it easy on him, I didn't say anything about the way he misspelled "therefore".

Yes I am!!! All hits from AOL domains are blocked.
If you are like the 26 million other drones that will put up that inferior service we don't want your kind at the StoneList®.

Put as a public service to all the AOLamers I am going to provide you lamers with the following information:

Get rid of AOL and sign up for ATT UNLIMITED dial up and
.07 cents per min. long distance for $7 per month.

Now take those $15 savings and use the money you have saved
to pay for your StoneList® subscription. Therefor the
StoneList® is free.

Now just think (if you can) the thousands of dollars that
I can save you by tapping into the brainpower that is Stone?

But the only problem with lamers is that they don't think they are lame for ignorance is bliss.

Does not work using Starband (two-way satellite), Direcpc (one way satellite + modem), Earthlink via modem, nor a local ISP via modem.

I don't think it is there...... must be another vapor site. :)

I frankly don't know why it is not working for it worked last week and I have made no changes.

Maybe my isp has a sniffer and they are blocking access to my machine.

I had to lower my security setting on my firewall and if I go any lower I will be exposing myself fully.

I will move it to one of those free banner suported sites.

Does any know of a good free site that I can move it to without much trouble? I have a Homestead site but the software sucks (locks up the machine). It is just a simple black and white page done in Word 97.

Thanks for the heads up.

Hello Everybody:

Facts:

Obsersation: one who is observing conversations.

Obsesationalist: Means a person who talks about observing a conversations or studies the works of a conversation. It\\'s in the dictionary!:-)

I observed this conversation, my Obsersation of this conversation is not many Obsevationalist know much here as they should, maybe if they observed a Dictionary first. Then they would know the difference between a observation or obsersation & if they educate enough like me\\'s they could then look like they know their suff when they pretend to be a obsersationalist. That\\'s a Fact Jack!

You guys really need to get you a dictionary if you going to try & look educate like the rest of us does!

BTW: I\\'ve seen the Stone List & I have been recently contacted by the Who\\'s who of Lawnsite, so he\\'s got the Best of the Best & does he really want any of the rest?????

I posted my first question:

How & When do I sharpen My Lawn Mower blades?
When I first perform this task do I need to be a Corp., LLC or just have a run of the mill CPA on retainer? If I do can I write it off in one year or should I depreciate it over a 3 year period?

Maybe I shouldn\\'t have asked that question on the list, maybe I\\'ll go to the Elements of Business Forum & ask there?

Sorry everybody, I just had to set the record straight! :-)

I posted on another thread at the same time Grassmaster posted. I see slashes in his post, I hope he put them there.

I looked at this in preview and the 's and "s are fine. Grassmaster are you trying to give us a slash attack? ;)

Hello Eric:

Sorry Eric, I'm getting a little out of control here. I think I need some help of some kind, but I don\\'t know from where or what?

SlAsshMaster Strikes again, I\\'m just trying to show there is other ways to have a little fun on this forum without hurting the forum or any one person. We just use our heads? We is all a little cut above the rest here at this Forum & we should show it!

LongestpostMaster is getting very tired & he hears a can of Beer maybe more, hollering pop my top & drink me, you deserve it GrAssMaster & it will make you feel better!

I's guilty for the slashes & now I take it easy for the rest of the day!:-)

Good Day Eric My Friend, Today has been a Wonderful Day!

All the "Quaker based", populous of PA. come down to Florida after they have judisciously vested there savings into IRA's and other investment entities over their productive earning years. At that point, I maintain their lawn/landscape and after haggling over the lowball amount they want to pay for superior service because they are "Retiree's" from PA., wish I was working in PA. where Mr. Stone is receiving profitable compensation maintaining sports fields. Without the hassle of RETIREE whining. LOL
