OT - A year on C&F

Darwin · Post by **Darwin** » Mon Jan 03, 2005 6:35 pm

Today (01/03/05) is my first C&F anniversary, and I'd like to thank all the folks that I've learned so much from--and all those who've provided so much companionship and entertainment, as well.

It's interesting that I still feel like a total beginner when it comes to the whistle. I'd never realized that I was such a slow learner.

Has it really been a year? I guess so - of course, I'm still feeling like a young 'un around here too.

Glad to see you're posting again - I'm sure it'll be even nicer for you once your new house is ready and you can start to unpack.

So what is that avatar, exactly, Darwin old chap? It looks vaguely....disturbing. Like a hobbit wrapped in cobwebs.

Oh, happy Anniversary too!

A Loud One Year Cheer! WHEEE!

Here's to many more!

(That was an interesting result... hmmm... perhaps I can remedy that... Ah... that's better)

Ignore that woman behind the curtain.

Congratulations Darwin. It seems like you've been around longer. You've certainly provided us with a lot more than a year's worth of stimulation and entertainment.

Funny about whistles isn't it. When I took up whistle I was told: they are like guitars, they're the easiest instruments to play and the hardest to play well. Well, I've played guitar for decades but did I take the warning? Of course not.

I'm not sure that whistles as such are hard to play. I think that perhaps Irish music is hard to play on them.

Waddaya mean?

That's my own lovely face and sweet smile.

The hat, by the way, is a Homberg--transformed into the ideal banjo-player's hat by removing the hatband and ribbon binding, filling with hot water, and punching to achieve the ideal shape.

Pain is like that. It causes time dilation.

Darwin, I have quite enjoyed reading your language-related posts and all your evolution/Creation comments as well.
