Definition of a Snob:

Thank you six-shooter for having the where with all.

The feelings described above, all though not true could be used the same way in describing those who shoot messengers.

But up in International Falls, they'll only get 10 years for "attacking or threatening posts." Or even worse, getting off topic. Only a snob would bring that up, I guess. But I am on topic. My weapon of choice would be a dictionary in one hand and a thesaurus in the other and I'd be hurling insane invectives directed right at the heart of my opponents. And roj would be the one marrying the survivor.

Well, the dictionary is actually meant as a gift. You do remember that this whole wonderful exchange started with an online dictionary definition of snob.

By the way, what did/does it require to be a snob in International Falls? I remember a time when it meant being a Republican, living in Riverview, having a cabin on Dove Island . . . working on the paper machines or having a law practice. Man, it was hard to be a snob in the Falls. You could go to Bemidji and just feel it in the air. All we had in our air was the sulfite mill. Where did the snobs go out to eat? Where did they take vacations? What did they drive? Where did they go to church? to swim? So many questions; so few answers. One thing for sure, Anton65 was not a snob. Minnow guys rarely are. I never met any snobs in the woodroom either.

Sadly, this is what it comes to in the Falls. Going back and forth about snobbery. *sigh* You have too much time on your hands. Schmitty go read your Bible and TLJ go read your dictionary. OR better yet, how about both of you go adopt an elderly friend at the Care center OR volunteer to help at the Food Shelf, maybe the Salvation Army needs a volunteer to help with their youth outreach. In the grand scheme of things, what does this conversation amount to? Not much but fluff in my opinion. Why don't you both waste your time elsewhere helping those in need? I know it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks, but I think it's about time you both learned some new ones. Your old ones are both tiring and boring me.

Schmitty. Look what we've done now; we've bored Jane. Happily married for 17 years, everything going just great and then she reads this stupid blog and it all comes crashing down. I hope you are proud of yourself. Dear Jane. This is how some of us have fun; if you aren't enjoying it I am sure there are many better things to read. [And I thought I was the snob. Go figure.]

It is late, I just got in and read the above wonderful posts from JaneinIF and Falls-Girl. I guess they just got back from Ellen Degenerate's wedding in California and needed something to help them sleep!! So, maybe they would like to tell me what kind of chat they would like to have?? Do we want to resort to the Servo/04 type rants? So what if we tend to digress and have a little fun? So much to tell these "Wonder Women", but not enough time tonight. Will continue in the AM. Try to have a good night ladies!! UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!

Dear Jane,

I will take the bold initiative on behalf of the other bloggers on here, and apologize for boring you and your sidekick!! I, for one, never thought this blog site was intended as a replacement for the City and County councils. You do have a valid point when it comes to complaining, without follow up with letters to Elected Officials, etc..... However, on here, much of the chatter, is intended to be a sort of conversation between the DJ Bloggers. Sort of a way to "vent", and discuss current events. So, what was it that got you on your soapbox? Was it the criticism of the "children's program"?? Or were you just as bored as us, and decided to lambast "Us Bloggers" for our trivial postings??
