Archive through August 01, 2003
Donut | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:39 pm     i see this as a personal victory..not as an american who would like to be a canadian, but as a person who waits til the last minute to get anything done. We had a debate here last year of those who are always on time and those who are always late, and the answer lies here... The winners here were the last two woman to finally get their essays in..so the answer is : whether american or canadian: wait til the last minute and you will always be the first to get the great beer and cheese curds delivered to your dog sled... |
Spygirl | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:43 pm     Despite the pressure of trying to be funny on cue, this was great fun! I'll gladly take my Ms. Bald Eagle title and wear it proudly Thank you to all the compliments. I don't think I'm very funny, so I appreciate the comments! |
Lancecrossfire | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:50 pm     Dr. Spy is Ms. Bald what?? <trying to think of how it would saound to say "Glenn, Ms. Bald Eagle"--hmm--just doesn't sound good at all> |
Jan | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:51 pm     Spy, not being funny is not something you have to worry about!(a double negative but you get what I mean , right?) I think you are very funny and you sound as though you are naturally funny..not like you had to think and work over it. |
Jan | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:53 pm     ooops double post..see I wanted to say it twice, Spy  |
Halfunit | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:56 pm     YAY North America!! <...laughs as Canadians are still North Americans...> |
Jan | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:58 pm     It's true half and on top of that we are North of America and the northern most country of those in North America so it really works  |
Jan | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:01 pm     oh and a huge Thank You to Adven for all the fun in this thread and all his threads! |
Zachsmom | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:17 pm     ya mean that's it? I thought there was going to be more! Should we have MsBaldy & MsBeaver do a Face Off?! |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:21 pm     well thats the last time i participate in one of these contests. |
Lizajane | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:22 pm     Yikes Zachsmom, bite your tongue. That was hard enough the first time. How bout we arm wrestle instead? |
Halfunit | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:40 pm     <self modded for the sake of good taste> |
Babyruth | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:56 pm     yikes! i will not post i will not post i will not post |
Mware | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 05:06 pm     All I'm sayin', Spy, is don't accidentally mix up your title with Lizajane's. The results could be very, very bad... <...starts checking his watch to see how long it takes Tess to say "Ahem"...>  |
Patichou | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 05:54 pm     Ok well I didn't win I bet I'm still the prettiest. |
Pamy | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 06:07 pm     LOL Patichou!!! Square, I hope next game Adven makes up you and I can be a team and kick everyone's a$$!!!!!! |
Llkoolaid | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 08:33 pm     I loved all them but LizaJane, you really had me laughing hard. This was fun, we will have to do this again, maybe next time I will sign up to be a judge. |
Lizajane | Thursday, July 31, 2003 - 03:40 pm     Thanks Kool  |
Jhonise | Thursday, July 31, 2003 - 07:17 pm     This had to be the best thread I have read in a long, long time. Yeah Canada, eh! |
Twiggyish | Thursday, July 31, 2003 - 08:18 pm     Yeah Canada! |
Adven | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 10:56 am     Sorry, I haven't been able to get on-line much in the last day or two and, as my busy season is gearing up again, probably will only be able to post sporadically for the next little while. I did want to thank the participants, judges and other posters for their imput. Who would have thought it was possible to have a thread like this without anyone's nose getting out of joint? I was particularly impressed that 3 different judges did not give in to the natural inclination to vote for Team USA and tried to be as fair as possible. Although, having read their posts over time, I never doubted their impartiality no matter what they might have decided. The submissions of the participants were creative and funny and, again, I think the judges got it right in selecting Lizajane and Spy as the individual winners. I would add, though, that I thought Llkoolaid's entry was also a great one. Again, thanks all. You continue to reaffirm my belief that TVCH has the best posters on the www. |
Pamy | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 11:30 am     Adven..I didn't realize there WAS a busy season in your line of work. |
Twiggyish | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 11:43 am     Is it a full moon? |
Grooch | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 11:47 am     Pamy, I was wondering the same thing. I noticed the busy season starts about the same time school does. Maybe all his new clients are teachers? |
Glenn | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 12:54 pm     I see a new guessing game. What is it that makes for Adven to have a "busy season"? I would venture that the warmer temperatures would have people at higher stress levels. The thing is.........does it ever get warm in Canada? |
