Adven39 | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 10:55 am  Yes, I should be working. No, I'm not going to. As someone who finds the people out here a lot more interesting than those in there, I've compiled the following verbal snapshots of the members of the audience who are watching with intense interest and/or falling asleep as this drama unfolds. Like I have to tell you, feel free to comment or disagree: 1. Ocean - site patriarch. Intense buddah who sees all, knows all. Stays detached, but got drawn into it in the synchronicity thread. Elitest's father from a sordid affair with a cocktail waitress he'd just as soon forget about. 2. Digilady - site matriarch. Bright, gregarious and bawdy. Bet she throws great parties. 3. Flint - site social director. Welcomes all and offers them a beer. Better still, a Nova Scotian. 4. Guruchaz - the Grinch Who Stole Christmas. Remove his impulsiveness, rhetoric and attitude and you've got a ...well, wordless post. Actually, and I've seen a doctor about this, I agree with almost everything he says. 5. Annagator - ((Sigh!)) 6. Noslonna - 'Merican Mole Monitor currently looking north. Screens Anna's suitors. 7. Stud39 - disgusting, although I like his room-mate. 8. Norequerdo - a mule. Plows forward stubbornly, won't be deterred and wears blinders. Arreal's the field. I do admire her single-minded determination to see the job through to its completion, however. 9. Elitest - a kindred spirit with flair. Has never met a 1000 word post that he didn't like. 10. Whit - former wordy wordsmith and self-proclaimed watchdog on ethics. Now a pleasant and interesting woman who is yearning to break free and post another thesis. 11. Spamgirl - a new millenium flower child with computer skills. Can't picture her being nasty, but was going to see if I could come up with something insulting just to find out. Couldn't find anything. 12. Wcv63 - humorous, insightful and quick. The best on the board in my less than humble opinion. Plays Guru like a fiddle, but he's too busy firing darts to notice. 13. Vasix - very decent and funny guy. Tends to go along to get along. Would have loved to have seen more intensity in his objection to the sports team name issue. 14. Affinity - a guy with a computer just hanging out on a message board while at work. 15. Kearie - fun, funky and flakey. When she was in school, I bet whenever the teacher asked a question, she shot up her hand, squirmed in her seat, and squealed, "Teacher! Teacher! Ask me! Ask me!" 16. Katie - Kearie's soul sister and attorney. 17. Lafatme - I did. 18. Bijoux - creates order out of chaos. 19. Sara - posts infrequently now, but it's not a bad idea to put down what you're doing, and listen when she does. 20. Nikkid - haven't got a sense of her, but I'm guessing a warm soul wrestling with an MTV attitude. 21. Soeur - lurking romance novelist still testing the waters. Has stuck her toe in, but she can't decide if it's warm enough. 22. Muzzy - fuzzy. 23. Karuuna - emerging mystic in synchron. thread, regular joe elsewhere. 24. Gail - stick with moderating. 25. Tuk - metamorphisized from a punk with an attitude to a man with an attitude. 26. Wendy - metamorphisized from a woman with an attitude to a punk with an attitude. 27. SandyC - Sandy is dandy. 28. Fruitbat - thinks I'm funny, therefore, is insightful. 29. Snave - interesting temper you've got there. 30. Misslibra - wants to put me on some wallpaper. 31. Jana - Texas twister. Loyal, moral and doesn't back down. 32. Azriel1104 - liked her until she turned out to be the same tree as Vykin. I can't beleaf it. 33. Caged - a fellow Philadelphia Flyers fan. Could also turn out to be a serial killer, but I can overlook this personality flaw if she continues to keep her priorities straight. 34. Twiggyish - pleasant enough, but being at work seems to make her crabby. If I missed anyone, take it up with Stud. |

I can be nasty... i just haven't had a reason to be yet But thanks for the complement Adven - likes to post wonderful things about other people

Affinity | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:10 am  Funny Adven and yet, so true. Good work! |
Karuuna | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:18 am  <<23. Karuuna - emerging mystic in synchron. thread, regular joe elsewhere. >> That would be regular Joanna, please. Or possibly Pollyanna, since I'm so peculiarly positive about people. |
Guruchaz | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:19 am  Hoodee doo dee doo! We're all so Magoooo!!  |
Adven39 | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:20 am  Sorry, Kar. You were wearing a loose-fitting shirt. |
Affinity | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:20 am  What was the name of that guy on the pink panther? You remind me of him Guru |
Kearie | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:22 am  I never held my hand up in school. I hid from the teachers questions. "Don't see me, Don't ask me" I'm not here |
Wcv63 | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:25 am  Adven is being nice to me because he thinks I'll put in a good word for him with Annagator!! Thanks Adven for the kind words. I blushed in delight! You're a mole monitor with a heart of gold! |
Karuuna | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:26 am  s'okay, Adven, one of the perks of being the boss is being able to show up in overalls and barefeet. It is a tad umcomfy in the winter. |
Misslibra | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:32 am  Adven39, great ideal, send me your picture, I bet your a hottie !! |
Whit4you | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 11:53 am  "10. Whit - former wordy wordsmith and self-proclaimed watchdog on ethics. Now a pleasant and interesting woman who is yearning to break free and post another thesis" Well I've found a great therapy for this, I just write a post as looooooooooong as I wanna, and then hit "preview/post" but don't actually submit it. It gives me the feel of "getting it all out" without subjecting any of the poor lurkers to it Could someone here please explain to me how to quote text here? Is there a function to do it or? |
Vasix | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 12:06 pm  Decent? I'm decent? Damned with faint praise. Oh well, I won't complain cuz I'm just a go along, get along guy... Kar: nice visual on the overalls and barefeet. Don't be pregnant or we'll be havin' to start cranking some of that hangdog country music (which after Patsy Cline, just ran out of steam) |
Digilady | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 12:37 pm  Oc: Thanks for that list. I'm not in a good place at the moment, won't be around for a day or two. Wish I could do the clipart: would send you lips! (Change your name with Adven) LOL! Smooches all around. The old phart will see ya'll tomorrow NIGHT or Sunday - someone please email me digilady@yahoo.com With the banishments! Ciao for now, <snark> |
Azriel1104 | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 01:10 pm  You know how it is, Adven, there always has to be that one tree in the grove that has to be different. Vykin has caused an uproar in our little walnut community. We at first wanted Vykin to just pick up his roots and leave. Some of the trees got a little aggressive and threw sticks at him. We called the tree doc and arranged his transplant to a nice apple grove. They were willing to let him branch out there because, well, you know how kind those apple trees are and they don't think one bad tree will spoil the whole grove. At the last minute we changed our minds and let him stay in our grove. Yeah, we know that is a nutty thing to do, but well...us walnuts are a strange bunch. |
Karuuna | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 01:29 pm  Vasix -- would you rather be "regular"? I can't believe Adven has the gall to comment on my toiletry habits. Long past the prime age for getting pregnant. I'm happy with the one wonderful kid I got, and adopting lost and wayward critters of the 4-legged kind. Besides, I'm sufficiently prudish to think that one ought to be married before they continue overcrowding the world. Am I hopelessly old-fashioned? Naw, just regular.  |
Vasix | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 01:39 pm  Kar: I did my bit to fight overcrowding. Ouch. And its sunny and Friday afternoon, get out in wonderful country. Take fourleggeds, one two legged. Maybe some wheels...no Corvair. And brake for Canadians. Autumn. Rockies. Sunshine. Blue Sky. Yellow aspens. Flatirons. Whohoooooooooo. Van Morrison should be playing in your head right now...if a beer commercial is, okay, stop for that, then lose the wheels and do all the rest of the above. |
Karuuna | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 01:46 pm  Oh, so we could start calling you Vasixtomy? Sorry, couldn't resist... It is sunny, already went for my daily jog, tangled with puppy's leash as he leapt to sniff the off-limit anatomical features of everyone else we passed. Skinned my knee, wounded my pride, and apologized sheepishly. But the sun's still out, it is beautiful here this time of year, I get to pick up my kid in half an hour, and then that amazing 6-year-old will challenge me to a soccer match or kickball game where I'll fall over the ball, skin the other knee, probably do a George and roll in the puppy leftovers, and laugh uncontrollably. Life doesn't get any better! |
Noslonna | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 03:56 pm  Vasix, have I told you lately that I love you? ... Have I told you there is no one above you... You fill my life with gladness... apologies to Van for misquoting lyrics... just humming along. |
Adven39 | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 04:11 pm  Az, just read your post and wanted you to know that even though you're a walnut, you'll always be poplar with me. Vas - sorry, that must have been a typo. Should have read "indecent". |
Vasix | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 04:26 pm  Noslona YKM! I had Van CRANKING in the car today! And you did nice singing! Adven Hey,I'm going with the original! Typo's are cheating (oooooh, don't tell Whit I used the "C" word). |
Vasix | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 05:26 pm  Adven: Maple you can come up with more really bad tree puns fir us! I know I wood pine if that poplar pun was your last. Its just the planks you get for being so quick, we will always want more to spruce up our dreary boards. |
Jana | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 05:56 pm  31. Jana - Texas twister. Loyal, moral and doesn't back down. hee hee....Texas Tornado that i am |
Twiggyish | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 06:10 pm  Adven..lol You got it! |
Guruchaz | Friday, October 27, 2000 - 07:04 pm  Hoodie-doo! I voted Roger Magoo.  |
