Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 12 Mar 08 - 04:28 PM Hey Rap, I see that Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island lives in Driggs and runs a film festival, the Spud Fest. You ever run into her? I know Idaho is a pretty big place but still. |

Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 07 Mar 08 - 12:07 PM I was Called, but chose not to answer. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 07 Mar 08 - 09:34 AM And I missed it, damn. My OutlookTM was down so I didn't get an alert, I had it on my calendar. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:20 PM It WAS the Judgement Day. I thought everyone knew that. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: IWTATBM Date: 06 Mar 08 - 03:46 PM Oh yes of course - silly me. Rapaire is correct, this is no new discovery you knew all along. The answer is YES I was shook, it felt like someone was shaking me awake. By the time I was fully awake it was all over and I thought it must have been a dream or a poltergeist. It's the talk of Ambridge, Bert Fry's missus thought it was judgement day. |

Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 06 Mar 08 - 03:23 PM What I meant was, did you get shook? Hmmm... perhaps I should re-phrase. Did last weeks tremors in Merry Olde England cause any ripples in Ambridge? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 03:07 PM I, for one, have never thought "What a fool that IWTATBM turned out to be". No sir! I've always thought "What a fool that IWTATBM is." Does it help any for you to know that? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: IWTATBM Date: 06 Mar 08 - 02:39 PM RE: Post 2699 I have to confess KB I didn't know what you meant when you said "did you get shook" and I still don't. I should have asked for more details then, but not wanting to appear the fool I let it lie. But you wouldn't let it lie would you KB? I am now forced to ask you what you meant and everyone will be thinking "what a fool that IWTATBM turned out to be". Et tu KB? I must now consider whether it would be best if I quit this thread forever, never to return. I hope you're proud of yourself. Maybe farewell forever Woe is me |

Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: topical tom Date: 06 Mar 08 - 01:21 PM Sorry to see you go, Rap.By the way, what's your number? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 06 Mar 08 - 01:14 PM Remember when Peanuts had a character named 5? He said his dad was disgusted with society becoming so impersonal and how we were all becoming just numbers. Charlie Brown asked if this was his father's way of fighting back and 5 said 'No, this is his way of giving up.' We will miss you Rap. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 12:35 PM Oh, wow is me. My lib cred it shot. I am going to sit here and work myself to death. Farewell, cruel world! Parting is such sweet sorrow. Goodnight, goodnight! They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance. What? the flames already? In manu tuo, Dominii, commendum spiritum meum. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:40 AM Ooooh! I know, I know... um, what was the question? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Little Hawk Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:36 AM Damn. One of those was the number of bananas Chongo ate last year, but which one was it? I'll have to ask him. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:34 AM No cred. Man, there is nothin' left for me to do but to go to work! Farewell, cruel world! I shall fling myself into an 856 field, be swalled up by the 008 subfields! Alas and also Alack! Let's blame "Shane" for it. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:31 AM Only person in the whole danged world without a number. Man, my lib cred is like, gone! |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:28 AM 357? 4570? 3030? 38? 31415? 4? 91? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:24 AM 1630? 1588? 4104? 5229? Any of those mean anything to you? How about 2791 -- I'll bet THAT one does! I know these things because I'm a registered psychotic, like those folks on late-night TV ads. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:20 AM Okay, how about the number 9761? Does that mean anything to you? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 06 Mar 08 - 09:10 AM That's 'cause Chongo eats so much spoiled fruit. It's juicy when it goes in and juicier when it comes out. Probably got the phone handset all sticky, too. If you were lucky it was sticky with overripe fruit. Ol' Chongo's not the most cleanly of folks around. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Mar 08 - 11:42 PM Oh, that. ;-) Well, actually I had that phone in the washroom disconnected. Chongo kept using it to call his relatives in Africa and it got totally out of hand. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 05 Mar 08 - 08:57 PM I knew that, got it from some secret hand signals and foot tapping. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 05 Mar 08 - 06:42 PM Actually, it's the last four digits of your office's bathroom phone number. But that number is secret, so I won't tell anyone. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Mar 08 - 06:40 PM I'm not convinced it does mean anything. I think you're just pretending it does. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 05 Mar 08 - 06:30 PM I didn't think that it would. See what I mean? I know everything. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Mar 08 - 06:25 PM Rapaire? No, it doesn't. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 05 Mar 08 - 06:08 PM Well, let's see: I have both brown and gray felt hats. I have both a six-foot and a ten-foot bullwhip. I have a .38 revolver. I am proficient in several languages, including fluency in both profane and obscene. I have an extensive academic background. I have lived in Indiana and have even taken classes at the University of Indiana at Bloomington. I do not, however, have the last name of "Jones". I suppose that this makes me "Indiana X." |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 05 Mar 08 - 05:25 PM Last night we watched "The Librarian" It is a made for TV movie with some guy who is (was, I don't know) on ER (I think). It was pretty hokey but fun anyway. The hero is a nerdy (initially) Indiana Jones type (sort of). |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 05 Mar 08 - 05:18 PM Because, LH, in the words of a very famous author, I am "one of the secret masters of the world: a librarian. They control information. Don't ever piss one off." Like every Librarian, I sit in the middle of a vast web of data and information. I know what each twitch of a strand means and how to respond to it for optimal results. I know about Samuel Steele and the Orilla Terriers, for example, or "Mariposa" and Gordon Lightfoot. Does the number "8331" mean anything to you? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 05 Mar 08 - 04:04 PM Yes, IWTATBM, but did you get shook last week? You never said (see post 2699). |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: IWTATBM Date: 05 Mar 08 - 03:35 PM Yea, I got the first post for March. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Little Hawk Date: 29 Feb 08 - 12:53 PM How the hell would you know about the Packet And Times? You scare me, man. And what's "the question", I wonder? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 29 Feb 08 - 09:24 AM Ah yes, but precisely which cheeks? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 29 Feb 08 - 09:05 AM Hey, I just read this in the Packet And Times "Arts and Life" section: Laugh, Guffaw, Chuckle, Giggle, Snicker Around The Town, Around The Area ...Don McBride of Blind River squired the OPP's "Officer Dana" to the Leap Year Dance at the Legion in Blind River last night. Could this mean she's ready to pop the question? They were certainly dancing cheek-to-cheek.... |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 28 Feb 08 - 03:35 PM Yeah. I understand that the grease has caused too many to slip into the Atlantic or Pacific and the chain is no longer profitable because of that. |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 28 Feb 08 - 02:40 PM Did you see that other thread about Tim Horton's closing down? |

Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: topical tom Date: 28 Feb 08 - 01:30 PM To avoid the "Ghost Hortons in the Sky" one must r-r-r-r-r-r-r-roll up the rim and win r-r-r-r-r-r-really BIG. |

Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: KB in Iowa Date: 28 Feb 08 - 09:29 AM Hey, IWTATBM, did you get shook? |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Rapparee Date: 27 Feb 08 - 03:38 PM ARE we watering the dead? Now that "Shane" McBride has gone to that Great Tim Horton's In The Sky? What a great song idea! "Ghost Hortons In The Sky"! An old hoser went stumbling out one dark and windy night In a gutter then he rested as he tried to strike a light When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed skanks he saw A-plowing through the alley and headin' for his craw! Their doughnuts were on fire and they tasted like old grease The coffee cups were broke and chipped and split along the crease A bolt of fear went through him as they offered him a cup Of the blackest joe he'd ever seen said to him "Drink up!" Yippie yi Ohhhhh Yippie yi yaaaaay Ghost Hortons in the sky.... |
Subject: RE: BS: Will this thread reach 85 billion posts? From: Little Hawk Date: 27 Feb 08 - 03:23 PM I hope not. We're less than halfway there. |
