All hail Rosy the dictionary!!! LOL! Loved the Muahaaaahaaaa and if you can "get away" with anything, GO FOR IT! A friend once told me that at her age (a tender 35 at the time), she noticed she's not that patient with people anymore and she says any damn thing she likes. I've always lived with that philosophy, although there are times I have used restraint. Not often but it does happen. Especially with elderly people. Now don't go off the deep end Rosy. I didn't say "old"! Heeheeheeeeee!

PLEASE NOTE:
Now that we are allowed to say certain words, I will say, "Using the word 'Old' to describe my being, is starting to 'PISS' me off!" I have done extensive research on the word "Old", so with this being said, I shall enlighten you with the truth of the matter, PAY ATTENTION:
DEFINING OLD:(Mature)
As far back as 1875, in Britain, the Friendly Societies Act, enacted the definition of old age as, "ANY AGE AFTER 50", yet pension schemes mostly used age 60 or 65 years for eligibility. (Roebuck, 1979). The UN has not adopted a standard criterion, but generally use 60+ years to refer to the older population. Although there are commonly used definitions of old age, there is no general agreement on the age at which a person becomes old.~World Health Association
DEFINING MATURE:(Sophisticated)
An "ADULT", no longer a child. The word "maturity" does not have one single meaning. For most people their response would be "responsibility," Now, that is not incorrect, but that is not the whole sense of the word. Being mature means not taking life seriously. There is nothing that says being mature means no fun in life. In life you can have the best of both worlds, and to me, that is what being mature is; finding a balance in one's life--a balance of silly and serious. Composed, logical, responsible, patient, forgiving, calculated... These are all words people might use to describe a mature person.
DEFINING SOPHISTICATED:(Rosy)
Mature Intellectually Appealing Elegant High Class
So with keeping all this in mind, my fellow Sparkers, from this day forward when speaking of me, you will refer to me as "ROSY" not "OLD Rosy", otherwise I will have to kick ass (we can use that word now). I have learned from the best right here on SP!
"In the final analysis, we think Webster should highlight “old” with words such as “courage, wisdom, athletic and perseverance"~SPARKPEOPLE
Rosy's Disclaimer: I will not acknowledge anyone who uses the word "Old" when referring to me!

I've started practicing now for when I get "old". I figure I should have it down to an art form by the time that day arrives. Hee hee hee.
Bob, I had noticed that some words were getting through on posts. Quite frankly, I'm still disgusted with "them" and don't much care if they do delete me. I'm having my fun while the gettin's good. I guess not only do I not like drama, but I don't care much for micro managing either --- even if it IS their sandbox.

You won't get knocked off for S#%t or any variation on same.
Spark recently revised it's censor program (without telling anyone - I wonder why?), and ass is now OK, as is damn.
I've been very careful to wait between experiments to find out what the new Censor allows, but it's definitely more liberal than our first one, which wouldn't allow us to say piss off or piss on.

OMG, Chris, thank you sooooo much for the wonderful compliments (I think). That crown is a family heirloom handed down from the "SmartAss" before me. And as far as the compliment about me being old, just remember, I do posses certain privileges like the power to remove things, so watch out!
