Have I told you how much I enjoy pie?

I don't know what the hell that's about. I was trying to sympathize with you and your bizarro absentee voting rules...

Re: I still see (none / 0)

"I like pie" is a way of ducking out of an argument, a flame war, a... pie fight.

I used it here in Drew's diary about smoking, to signify I wasn't going to get into an fight about smoking again.

I suppose redstar was just saying he wasn't into a debate about the merits or demerits of proxy or absentee voting systems...

Re: I still see (none / 1)

Ditto to most of what afew said.

Apologize if I misread your comment. I did not take it as intended.

Thanks. I had no interest in a pie fight...
