I don't get it ... something cultural that I'm not aware of, no doubt.

As you are a self-admitted quiet lurker of the board, the most inappropriate thing I could think to say as a means of welcome was to ask if you knew any dirty jokes - like an ice breaker, as it were.

Oooh, oooh -- I know one, teacher; I know one.

This family -- a father, mother, teenage daughter, 12-year-old son, grandmother and dog with an infected ear -- goes into a talent agent's office.

"Have we got an act for you," says the father.

"Get outta here. I don't do family acts." sat the agent.

"OK," say the father. "We're going, but I gotta tell you -- we grossed out the Aristocrats."

Ah, I get it!

I feel duly, inappropriately welcomed!

(can't help in the joke department, though)

I know one, but I got it from here, so it won't do any good to tell it.

One of the old timers eh?

How many here were on the old Coolboard? You should get a little blurb under your name.

Hey, I'd like that. It would give me like, some status, an identity. something that would give my posts the lustre that was lacking...

Although I don't know about old-timer. Doesn't fit my age.
Cooltimer maybe
or founder member
or Early Settler
or judging by my post count;
Senior part time lurker

any other ideas

This way, everybody gets treated equally and the frequent posters do not appear to be the most popular.

So let's keep our eyes open for anniversarys and forget about high post counts.....

Sure... if you insist!

Having finally achieved the astounding post count of 100 ( it only took me since March 2002) I was kinda hoping for at least a party?

Hooray for Moonlight! Party time!

I've decorated the chat room just for you and your party, Moon. I thought your idea for the theme--Our Friend the Avocado--was perfect, so I've tried to reflect that in the decorations. I'm especially proud of the guacamole sculpture of you and Alan on the settee. (It's an unusual yet strangely satisfying medium to work with, and cleanup is quite delicious.)

So congratulations on your milestone and thanks for your kindness and all the fun you've provided me and many others in chat over the years.

Awww..thank you Carol...*blush*
The guacamole sculpture was a big hit in the chatroom...regrettably it was mistaken for dip and it is now headless but still makes a statement I think...how long does guacamole keep?

Your ideas for the men's room decor were brilliant too...and I'll need your input for the final touches....

Not long at all, but if you cover it, tightly, with foil or something it keeps a little better.

You know that GHANDI refused to wear shoes so his feet became hard and tough, right?

You know that he went for long periods fasting and refused to eat meat, even when he wasn't fasting, right?

And you know that both the fasting and his diet gave him extremely bad breath, right?

And that he was of lean, slight build, especially in his later years?

So he was a SUPER CALLOUSED FRAGILE MYSTIC PLAGUED WITH HALITOSIS!
