I hate it when my mouse cords are balled...

If your mouse cords start balling, Rainmaker, you should separate them before they procreate on your keyboard. Then we won't understand a thing you post. :)

>arn't there bald mice?

Absolutely? And perhaps a triple retronym would be "living four-legged furry mouse.

Roger that!

The sense of that being anything "retro" is missing, whereas:

web cam corder

Has the retro *thing (camcorder) but not necessarily a redundancy... although most all web cams are/can be used as (a) recording device(s).

Yes! Welcome rainmaker. Dance much?

'Dancing is a vertical expression of horizontal desire.'

I prefer satisfying that desire the 'proper' way.

OOOOhhhh, that's way too bad, Rainmaker. Dancing is one of life's joys! not that I don't enjoy the "proper" myself, but why limit your fun!

With you on that, Consuelo. I love to bop - vertically and horizontally.

Connie and Liz (and any other dancers), give me a call when you're in town and we'll paint it red. I know a couple of salsa clubs and a swing venue that almost make the vert better than the horiz.

Interesting that in this area of the world (S Carolina) we love to Shag - which connotes (of course) both a vertical and horizontal lie... Ain't no lie.
