- I am living through the most recent part of work hell right now, and have been too busy crying. - loosilu Jul 17, 11:35 3
  - Again, no offense or slight intended. - Dr.Vermin Jul 17, 11:38 1
    - More specifically, I think it was somewhat characterized as almost a pick-on-loosi thread ... which is lame. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 17, 11:39
  - ugh, that sucks. - znufrii Jul 17, 11:37
- Loosi last posted from her mobile on B3, so she is possibly off-line while all this chat about her password continues -- nm - ty97 Jul 17, 11:35
- Trish is working probably. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 17, 11:35

  - I can't at all - ty97 Jul 17, 11:22 3
    - I can whistle by intake of breath, but not by exhaling. Very strange. *And* there's no whistling classes you can take. -- nm - Loyola Jul 17, 11:25 2
      - Ooh, I've almost got the 'two pinkies in my mouth' whistle perfected. - Dr.Vermin Jul 17, 11:27 1
