How Many Forum Members Does It Take...

[Sunshine74]

I'm new to this forum...

I think you might be my new favorite person of the night.

Me too... Shouldn't that aww be awe? Hehe...

Actually, no. It was clearly used as an interjection used to express my disappointment at being the only one here capable of noticing the error of Blackcat's post.

A simple Google search of the word before trying to correct me would have saved you some embarrassment.

Here are the links in case you are having trouble:

Do you have the wiki dictionary link to define "interjection" because I'm still confused about the previous candle post.

oh goodness, this was so funny. you all forget

"3 members that try to hijack the thread to talk about unrelated topics"

"1 unregistered troll that posts something controversial and probably unrelated and then disappears from the rest of the conversation"

"1 person that suggest calling CPS. Doesn't matter the topic, someone will suggest it."

Light bulbs?
I live in the dark.

I'm seriously confused also... Mainly because I thought they were phasing out regular light bulbs and moving to those twirly energy efficient kinds. Wait, do we need to start a new topic for the new types of light bulbs??

Ok I'm confused again.... I wonder if the number breakdown would be the same for lighting a candle?

Probably we do because there are the twirly kind (flourescent?) and the regular kind (incandescent?) and then those fake candles. Now would they be considered light bulbs or candles?

Not to mention birthday candles and twinkle Christmas lights...

Can someone check my spelling for flourescent and incandescent cause I think they are speeled wrong. :confused:

I would ask some more questions but I have to go thaw out the truck before I drive my kids to school. Gosh I hope nobody left the interior light bulbs on last night.

See? I can make a stupid post relevant simply by finding a way to put "light bulb " in the post

It's "speeled" 'fluorescent'. Duh.

Glad to see we actually had a sense of humor back then and that we still do now! ::::

I love candles but they are dangerous for my little birdies

I do use them in the kitchen sometimes because my birdies are in my bedroom.

Wait... What were we talking about again??

Oh look!! A squirrel!!!

Here are some other links I found that are relevant to the child care profession which makes light bulbs relevant to this daycare forum.

*Sorry candle users. I see no mention of any acceptable forms of open flame that is suitable for use in a child care setting.
