Whit4you | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 08:34 pm     Ok - As I said I just thought of this idea on the way home I swear it could be alot of fun...here's the 'rules' Can a MOD stick this at the "TOP" (know what I mean?) This is a "Getting to know you" thread. Share ONE more fact than the person before you. First round when we get to 10 - we'll start over next person posts 1 fact. Next round when we get to 20 - we'll start over next person posts 1 fact. Next round when we get to 30 - And so on...... Feel free to add more facts about you - if your the shy type try and jump in 'early' in a new round. Hint: If you post at the same time as someone else - you can edit your post by clicking on that little 'notebook' thingy to the right of the date/time on your post. |
Whit4you | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 08:36 pm     BidD - good - (I'm trying to work with Spy's idea as well as my own...) So I'll start 'round 2" (TO 20 facts) 1) I love the colors grey and burgandy together |
Bigd | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 08:38 pm     Oh.......I started to only post one thing, NOW you clarify. ugh...... I'm tempted to edit..... |
Whit4you | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 08:40 pm     BigD lol well you did that AS I was trying to work out a 'comprimise' between my idea and spy's cause her's is good too... my idea was basically that sooner or alter some poor soul was going to have to post 40 things!!!! But this way it'll be a while before we get to that poor soul. LOL SO you do 2 things (Unless someone does before I post this hehe) This is new territory - so it won't be perfect but I do think my idea could be a ton of fun - and the more I read your guys's facts the happier I am that I thought of it cause I"m fascinated with them..and fasinated as to why your picking certain facts..know what I mean?  |

Whit4you | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 08:50 pm     ok in case I confused any poor peeps - we are on 'round 2' - when someone posts 20 facts - next person will post 1 fact. Till than just post one more than the person before you. OK round 2...20 round 3...30 round 4...40 if we are still having fun we can take it from there. LOL FYI If two people post '2 facts' - it's no biggy - threads about having fun not perfection  |
