Better Late LOL Day Than Never (I Hope)

Happy belated LOL Day


Well if you missed Love Our Lurkers day (organized by by Bonnie)on other blogs here is your chance to leave a comment on a blog that is having a late LOL day this year or if you just want to comment in the general spirit of the occasion, feel free to do so. If you would like a topic to comment about, you could always answer the question below :)

What should my punishment be for being late for LOL day?

My apologies for my enforced absence from blogging

On Friday my modem went to computer accessory hell and it managed to die in such a spectacular manner that it tripped some kind of safety cut off switch at the distribution box, leaving myself and a few of my neighbors (who are using the same connection system) without internet, main telephone and television connection (the past four and a bit days have been like living in the stone age). The cartoon at the start of this post is very true, my house has not been this clean and tidy for years (I hate it, it is like living in a hospital). Hopefully it will be back to business as usual now, with a Thought For The Day on Friday. My apologies to those who missed my regular posting.

Glad to see you back! Internet outages can be awful. We don't have a TV feed and I can live without the phone, but don't mess with my internet!! Meow

Hello! You know, I've been trying to convince Dan for some time now that it really is better to be late than never. He still doesn't buy it though. ;-)

When I noticed you'd been added to Bonnie's list, I wanted to pop in to let you know I enjoy your blog since I read regularly without commenting.

Happy LOL Day! I enjoy your blog, but I'm pretty sure I've never left a comment, so here's to delurking! Of course, you should probably be caned for being late. So it goes.

Happy late LOL day!

Since you missed the actual LOL day through no direct fault of yours, I don't think you deserve a punishment for being late. However, since you seem to eagerly want one, you could always ask The Hunteress for a proper thrashing.

I usually lurk here, but I certainly read. And smile, chortle and/or guffaw, depending on the day. :-)
Thanks for both the entertainment and for making me think.

Hi Prefectdt,

Obviously, you weren't too late after all.

Thanks for joining the LOL Day fun.

Hugs,
Bonnie

Here's another swat for you. I'm so glad you joined the party. A late entrance is always effective.

Meow - yes the withdrawal symptoms where terrible, I've never cleaned so much.

Bethie - Same here, I read your blog every time that you post but don't comment as much as I would like to.

Graham - I just found your blog through LOL day, I'm looking forward to reading more.

Ludwig - I wish I could see the Hunteress for my punishment, I have been fascinated and scared of her use of the cane for a long time but unfortunately circumstances do not allow.

Indy - Great to see you here, hope that you keep enjoying my waffling.

Morningstar - I wouldn't miss reading your blog for the world, I'm flattered to hear that you read mine.

Bonnie - Thanks so much for organizing this, it looks like another big success this year :)

CD - just found your blog as well and am looking forward to checking it out.

Ronnie - fortunately the tech guy said that he will keep his mouth shut about the fact that it was my modem that caused the problem and I am not shouting about it (naughty me).

Chief - I agree ;)

Hermione - Nice to see you on so many blogs. It looks like you put a lot of effort into LOL day. Hope you enjoyed it.

Thanks for commenting all of you. I think that I had better be on time next year ;)
