Neil D Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 As I browse the "Who's Online" forum, I see your name repeatedly. Don't be afraid to get registered and become aquainted with us...some of us don't bite, and some of us only bite on certain blue moons with halos on them...in a particular phase of that blue moon...The rest of us, well, we do bite...often and only for your own good [we think]. If you could ignore those who bite, you might find that posting is a bit fun....[pun intended] Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve.

Dear Anonymous- Please ignore Norm's post...He's from the "Deviant Behavior" thread, and is unleashed once in a while usually by accident on purpose...We have caged him back up again so that we feel it is safe to post again...Unfortunately, that is no guarentee that he might get out again..His devious behavior allows him to get out of his cage from time to time.... If this is not enough to entise you to post, I do have this bit of country property in Idaho, with a nice stream running thru it, complete with a bridge that I can sell you very cheap.....Did I mention this property is cheap? Let me reinterate....this property is very cheep!....complete with bridge... Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve. George Bernard Shaw
NormF Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 OK, Jupiter and Mars are back in configuration, and Iowa is safely free of lunar influences. It's not my deviousness, Neil; it's all the fault of interplanetary alignments. Anyway, I do feel much better now. Dear Anonymous, We really would like to invite you in. There's almost always an extra football to kick around. And if someone else leaves and takes their's home in a huff, it's easy to find another. We even crack a joke every so often. Amelia actually has a whole section of them. Not to mention various escapees here and there. As they used to tell Mikey at the breakfast table, "Try it, you'll like it." Or was that Snidely Whiplash coaxing the deed to the ranch out of Nell? ... I forget. Regardless, come join the fun!

Neil D Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 There are over 6 pages of "Anonymous" in the who Online. What are you guys? Cloned????

Neil D Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 It is 1230 AM and there are 129 anonymous users of this BBS...While I can understand that of the 6 billion people on this planet, and only 3 % have computers, and of those 180000 using computers this very minute, only 129 of you have found this forum...What puzzels me is that 15 of you are printing out pages from this BBS.....Can any of you tell me why??? Please???? At this hour of the morning????? I know I am rummy at this hour of the morning, but I just realized why anonymous is printing pages...all your names and your posts are going onto the Conference offices and onto a black list....as evidence of your lurid ways!!!!!! I have only one thing to add.... RUN! RUN! RUN! ....RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!! Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve. George Bernard Shaw
Planey Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 No, Neil, you are mistaken. It is only 12:30 am where you are. Clearly these anonymouses reside in Europe or Asia or Oceania. You know, somewhere civilised. Obviously they are downloading posts so as to be able to peruse them at their leisure and try to make some sense of them (Good luck in some cases) as English is not their first language. Then again I'm not sure some of the rest of you lot speak English either...

Neil D Posted July 16, 2005 Author Posted July 16, 2005 After Stan posted that little blurb on where all you annonomyi came from, I noticed that there are not many from the land of Oz [that's Australia, for you non-Ozzie types] and the question came to me....How did we get some of you from Oz, like Planey??? Or Nan? Or Adonna? Then the question came to me...How did we get some of Cannuks [that's people from Canadia, for all you non-Canadia types]? People like Gail, Bravus, Stan? [Actually, Stan is a "hybred"...He resides in Cannuk land, but travels to California a lot, so he could be USA citizen. And even if he ISN"T, he APPEARS to be!] Then it occured to me that that Saudia Arabia entry,....whose is from Saudia Arabia???? I dont know anyone from Saudia Arabia...So, Dear Anonomyous, is that where all 129 of you are from???? Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve.

NormF Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 There are a couple other reasons for hitting the print button of a given post besides actually obtaining a hard copy. 1. The font is large and easier to read on the screen display at that point. 2. Pages that have gone wide for lack of word wrap are (sometimes) brought back to the land of the living (i.e.; readable once more on a single screen width). Regards, Norm ... Still don't understand why you want to keep me chained up in a cage, Neil, just because Oscar and I prefer to live in garbage pails. Mine happens to be a very nice garbage pail, I'll have you know. His isn't all that bad either; I've visited it before. Just ask Big Bird; he'll tell you. Quote Debile fundamentum, fallit opus. - "Where there is a weak foundation, the work falls."
Neil D Posted July 17, 2005 Author Posted July 17, 2005 Dear Anonymices It is Sunday morning and there are only 62 of you lurking about with nothing to do but to watch...Surely participation is more fun than watching....What can we do to intice you to post something....Well, as I ponder this dilema, I realize that I have this property with a bridge on it that I am willing to let go,...reallly cheap...with a bridge on it...small stream, large bridge...And I am thinking of selling sections of that bridge to the first 50 people for for under $10...Remember, large piece of land, small stream running thru it, large bridge...sections going for $10 per section....Any Anonymices willing to register and take me up on my offer? Norm chided me with this bit of repertoire Quote: Still don't understand why you want to keep me chained up in a cage, Neil, just because Oscar and I prefer to live in garbage pails.

Complete with sauna and pool table. But it's that once in a blue moon thingy that upsets the inhabitants of ClubAdventist...And that garbage pail just don't do the job like a good cage.

Neil D Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 Quote: Oops, I didn't mean to offend anyone's sensibilities here. That was strictly in jest. Dear Norm...... Since the Anonymi are not responding, I feel that I must say something in regard to the above statement. [and besides, it bumps this post up another notch]. What the heck are you talking about??????? Our "sensibilities" ,as you call them, are not the least offended by your replys. Shoot, our sensebilities are totally non-offended to the extent that they are non-existant. Not that we don't have sensibilities, but they are not disturbed by what you have posted in the very least..... So, speaking for the anonymices , I feel certain that I can say that there is nothing to appologize for.... Unless the Anonymi want to speak for themselves, I think that this post questioning your need to appologize for something that we have no clue should satisfy any requirement that anyone may have over any sensibilities that anyone was offended over...

Neil D Posted July 20, 2005 Author Posted July 20, 2005 Dear Anonymouse, The last two morning have reveal a bit of a fact that is rather amazing to me...the number of Anonymi is decreasing...In beekeeper talk, this means that the hive is not becoming as big as it was [this is assuming that the "on-line" forum is a hive]. We had 80 of you this morning and 103 yesterday. Compare that to all the other days in which I looked in [ 130, 140, 125,] and we see a lowerering trend. Either a lot of you are dying off by becoming known members [which is a good thing as we would all like to meet with you] [and by "we", I mean the members that have posted in this thread], or ya'll just gave up and aint coming to this BBS anymore....Which is a shame as this is a differantly good place to bee. <-Trying to keep in the hive mentality here. The humor forum needs more people like yourself to put more humor in our lives...and fun puzzles....word puzzels, math puzzels, georgraphy puzzels. There's the vegetarin forums which are good places for reciepes for meals. There are your places of intense debate, ie the World AfFairs forum [politics] and your religious debate forums [What SDA believe, Theology, ect]...The town hall needs people who show 1[ thier computer skills 2] pictures of where they have been on vacations 3] inquiry for the puurpose of getting to know people 4] bugging Bravus as moderator [in a good way!] [bravus has been lonely of sorts lately not getting email and all.... ] 5]posting notices 6] expressions of gratitude are surely welcomed in the townhall...7] even whiners and complainers are welcomed...as they cause the adminstration to look at how to make this BBS a better place....[whisper mode -on]but they are not AS WELCOMED as the gratitude posts [whisper mode-off] We even have a 'hobby' area, where Birdwatching forum, Arts and Crafts forums, pictures forum. There are a place where current unusual stories are found. We even have our own "Saturday night Live Church lady" ....Mrs. Gray available to give some 'sound sensible' advice for novice church goers..Isn't THAT special!?!? So, folks come on down...check us out...talk to us...we'd love to hear from you.... Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve. George Bernard Shaw

Well, it appears with only 55 anonymi on the "on line forum", that many of them have gone to the gorge to vacation....Since you are closer to the gorge than I, Amelia, and since you travel a bit, wanna swing by there and capture a few Anonymi ? Please register them at your local fish and game office, in addition the to ClubAdventist.com. Stan will be glad you did....
