the original thread is here:
http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=10&t=001902&p= ] the previous thread is here: Cloudy's CafeCome in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie. The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines: this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone* no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner * any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences) -a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately! * Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!) * do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it. Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around the world. And purple napkins, of course! The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.

PLEASE NOTEThis is a modified reminder that I've posted before in reply to someone asking "can we spam the cafe". It still holds true, so I'm going to repeat it periodically for anyone who hasn't seen it. Read the first post of the thread, it's NOT a spam zone. If you want to discuss you grades, a problem with a teacher,the weather, your neighbor's new car etc.....etc.. (real life conversations) this is the place. I don't mind a SMALL amount of spam but when the Cafe gets to be 8 pages in one day and it's all one liner pure spam, I have to ask people not to do it because most of the members who would come to talk about their day or things that they want advice or sympathy or cheers on, will not post in that atmosphere. I want you to be comfy here, but not at the expense of other members. So the answer is NO, I don't want to see page after page of roleplay spam or one liner spamfests that could be done on msn or aim etc. because our goal is to TALK WITH one another , not fill up a cafe in five hours.

Hello, Cloudbringer et al. [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
Holy cow has it been busy around here! The good news is that I don't have 1.5 jobs anymore and that I am officially an assistant manager; the bad news is I wish the money were just a little bit better. [img]graemlins/erm.gif[/img] If only I could sleep through anything like kitcat.... [img]graemlins/laugh3.gif[/img] Well...that was uncharacteristically unusual for me. [img]graemlins/laugh3.gif[/img] I actually disclosed information in a public forum. Oh, well...I'm not perfect (yet). [img]tongue.gif[/img] I hope everyone had a wonderful summer equinox, despite the fact that it is actually the middle of summer, at least according to pre-Christian reckoning...but that would be nit-picking and another example of useless (or not-so-useless) trivia.

hi everyone! i have been lurking a lot lately but thought that in order to kill two birds with one stone i would post. just to let everyone know i am still pregnant! and my other bird is tha tmy comp is dead and so i am on nathan's, and in my attemp to make him as mad at me as i get at him i am not going to log out of my name on here before he comes home, so hopefull some part of the forum i never visit, like bgII, will have a post under my name because i am getting him back for doing it on my comp all the time! silly me, i know!
well we got to go to justi's ballet on friday, she is only four but her class did better than some of the older childrens classes. she was gorgeous, but sick! i am sooo mad. some of you know that my parents took custody of her, and they ar ethe ones who have her taking ballet, which i don;t have a problem with, but that they had kept her home from day care friday and knew she was sick and dressed her up and sent her on stage anyway! i agree that she did well even tho, and that she had been looking fwd to it, but they should have at least told me! i didn;t know she was sick until we went ot pick her up this morning!!!! okies, thanks for letting me vent, i need it sometimes! ttyl

Hi gang! [img]graemlins/happy29.gif[/img] I haven't dropped by for awhile and thought I'd see how the better half of the forum is doing. [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img] The Dr.Peppers sounded good, and I was wondering what everybody has planned for the summer?

5 days off ? Are you sure you can handle that ? I mean... take it easy dude, don't rush things, have a beer, and blah blah blah .....
All of that can be done in just one day. So be careful, 5 days might destroy your life.

Yes...Cloudy's Cafe is down in the West End this weekend, and on a rooftop no less! [img]graemlins/awesomework.gif[/img]
Dr. Pepper, antryg? [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] Puh-leeze! *ugh* I know Dr. Pepper is a Dallas-area tradition (didn't they close the plant just off Mockingbird some years back?) but make mine a Vanilla Coke, if you would. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] RevRuby, I'm glad your daughter did well at her recital; I hope that whole situation improves quickly.
