Notice: Churchmouse is a guy

[Churchmouse]

:)There's been some confusion lately about the gender of Churchmouse. Churchmouse is a guy. Honest.:):):):

I realize in this day and age it's possible to be a female and also have a wife. It doesn't bother me when men raise their eyebrows when I explain the scar on my hand is from a cut washing dishes. It doesn't bother me that I can change a baby's diaper as well as any woman. It doesn't bother me that I tear up at "The Sound of Music", "Miracle on 34th Street" and some episodes of "Andy Griffith", I'm a guy. After four years in the Marine Corps I don't feel I have to prove anything. At 5'4" and 150 pounds there isn't much of me, but I'm a guy.:):):)

[dazed-and-confused]

That reminds me of my father-in-law. He tells people, "I'm a retired officer in the Marine Corps, I've raised four boys, I ride a Harley, and if anyone has a problem with me crying, they can meet me in the parking lot."

I suspect you're talking about me and my boobs comment. That was my attempt to be witty . . . I've always known you're a man.

Hey, you begged someone to just say they were older, so I did, but I had to use a different measuring stick, and thus came up with the sag factor.

Obviously my joke bombed big time, and now my self-esteem is . . . sagging.

i admit to being one who thought churchmouse was a guy, not really paying attention i guess. i too have trouble with vort because of the avatar. there is someone else...i think moshka and pam that i get confused with. Elphie I know is a witch, not a warlock.

[RanMan]

They let you in the marines if you're 5'4"? (Not meaning any disrespect.) Is there a height limit for armed services registration?

:)

Seriously..how many guys do you know that have the name pam?

[Elgama]

lol I guess you are just so secure in who you are you can afford to be in touch with your feminine side.

[Justice]

PAM is a trucking company near me. They don't like being called Pam, but insist on P-A-M the letters.

So, who knows. :)

Yes but it's shorter then that. It vary's by service but it's about 4'8''

[MorningStar]

I knew that. It's vort i get confused on:D:p

I'm 50% sure Vort is a guy.

(Or a woman)

[pam]

I've noticed Vort hasn't been on the site since it went down. Or at least hasn't posted.

Maybe being confused for a women finally got to him?

Maybe they think you made a mistake and meant to put down Pat? :)

Elphaba? A girl who is so superior: Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside have a matching exterior - And since folks here to an absurd degree seem fixated on your vertigree - Would it be all right by you if I de-green-ify you?

i've seen her FB page and know she's not green.

[pam]

I've seen your FB page and know you aren't nice. lol j/k of course

[Dravin]

i've seen her FB page and know she's not green.

I've seen her in person and I know she's not green.

[talisyn]

I'm very disappointed she isn't green. How cool would that be?

[miztrniceguy]

Just because I didn't give disclosure that most of the people that link to my page (extended family) are left-wing liberals and progressives?

Or the links to my wife's blog and book pages which I cannot post links to here? (see my 1 infraction). Many members would not like what my wife writes. I'll call it "spicy romance".

[RanMan]

Yes but it's shorter then that. It vary's by service but it's about 4'8''

Ok, thanks.

The height requirement at that time for Marines was 5'7". I had to be interviewed by a Colonel In Cincinnati to get a waiver on height and age since I had just turned 17. That was in 1965. At that time the other branches had no height requirements.

A couple of weeks ago someone said they were surprised that I mentioned I had a wife, but I hope everyone realizes I meant this thread all in fun. :):)

Ok, thank you for explaing that for me.
