Sort of like "dime novels" and "penny thrillers" of the
Old West?

Why the green smilie?
Sick, or just sick and tired of it all???

I was watching some old-time Westerns the other day, and
a small boy had a dime novel of Billy the Kid. Then
Billy came to town and made the boy's day.

hehe I love old westerns...recently got Clint Eastwood's spaghetti westerns...first films I ever saw him in...he is a true genius  The green smiley made me laugh...it is the only green one and no-one else uses it to my knowledge so I thought that it might feel a bit left out

On another site I belonged, they had a green smiley, and
I always used it (to everyone's distaste) to express
'yucky' when referring to their previous comment. No
comment on my part just the yucky green smiley, so that is
why I asked. How very nice of you to have empathy for it.

hehehe It just looks so sad...like it will break down in tears at any minute (it looks almost identical to a friend's little sister who used to hold her breath, and then cry if that failed, whenever she wanted something and wasn't allowed it...she tended to look a bit more purple though...)

If only we all had more empathy, there would be less
crying. We could read each other's feelings and help
before things got out of control. We had a 17 year
old this last week, go into his high school and shoot
the principal and vice-principal, the latter dying.
He then left,drove a few blocks and killed himself.
And everyone is wondering (as they always do) what could
have been done earlier, and why did nobody notice.
Pathetic.

I was happy Luke until, I read your last post. It reminded me of a boy at my sons school....who came to school and shot himself. No-one else. There was no note and his family, friends and teachers had no idea that anything was wrong before that day. It left everyone stunned.....

(I never thought of teaching as being a dangerous occupation, before.)
Back to subject...
The film...Pulp Fiction is a good example of 'pulp' it evens starts off by giving the dictionary meaning of the word....then proceeds with a mixed up series of events that all tie together in the end.
As to amalgamations......I'm thinking
text messaging or texting....now, txing, txt or plain tx.
as in phone text messaging and now common on the internet

The school even had condolences from the Columbine, Colorado, school where two youth shot and killed 9 I believe a few years back. We had a youth shoot and kill 11 here in a shopping mall about 5 years ago. And today the young man who shot and killed five and wounded a Congressperson in Arizona. Pathetic.
