I was once a loney freeper. A freeper without a "1", pleasently picking on user "Ash" daily, now I have a (one)"1". What did I win to become a 'one'?
Back in the days of Teddy Roosevelt, I signed on to FR. (May, 98.) Then somebody hit the wrong button and BOOFF! I was eliminated, disenfranchised, erased from memory. Gone, Capute!
Subsequently, posing as a lurker, I saw an old thread I had started from July, '98. I tried to post to it.
Nothing.
I tried again.
Nothing!
I emailed JimRob. He said my user ID was gone! Not banished, not erased, not booted,, just gone! The mystery is enough to make you cry! I was a "nothing". (Although after this post and with the kitties getting to me that could change)
So being the great and all mighty (JimRob), he gave me a new user ID, pretty much like the old one, except it had a "1".
Years went by. Then sign on dates became the thing to have. This is where I was disenfranchised. I had a 2000 user ID but signed on in '98. The earlier my sign-on date was i assumed the more intelligent I just had to be!
If that wasn't enough, down the road a new user signed on with my old user name and completely ruined my image!! On top of it all, that one old thread which had made me famous was deleted, so I have no proof
I'm doomed! I want a recount!!!! DUH! Call Jesse Jackson, Gloria Allred!! (Get me Ann Coulter's cell number!)
That's just a gem, did you put that aphorism together or find it somewhere? I just want to know the source because I want to add it to my collection of favorite quotes.
Dalin B. Oaks's Unruly Laws for Lawmakers:
Law expands in proportion to the resources available for its enforcement.
Bad law is more likely to be supplemented than repealed.
Social legislation cannot repeal physical laws.
Don't ask me who he is. I don't know. It could be a pseudonym for Murphy.
I wonder if I am still me..
So you are just not yourself then, are you?
I'm beside myself checking the view. :-)
Hey, you're a week away from the first anniversary of this pointless thread! Might as well keep it alive! :-)
Merry Christmas!
Stop whining, it is unbecoming of a lady. Har T har har.
Pointless being the operative word!! :-) LOL!!
Merry Christmas !!! HoHoHo!!!!
Hush, or I'll hasta muss ya up you with my purse!!
Merry Christmas!!!!! :-)
I recall more than a few names that have dropped by the wayside. FR is a lot like the seven year itch, just cant get rid of it.
Barnacles and all I still miss A+Bert..
I suspected, you aint no lady. hehehehehe
This is series! LOL
You mentioned Ash in the beginning of your post. I have just signed on here and joined on at the bottom. You must remembr A+bert then, or maybe it was just A bert. At any rate, he was cantankerous, but a nice guy.
I've been here since April '98. But only lurked til I couldn't keep quiet any longer.
Sue Ellen's sister was played by Bing Crosby's daughter, I think her name was Mary Crosby but can't remember. She was a conniving vixen.
I don't remember how I came upon this old thread, I don't have a good reason for bumping it into 2006, but why not?
Ah, he thinks he's special, but he's just like every other JoeSixPack out there, including JoesSixPack, JoesSixPack2, JoesSixPack3 ad infinatum.
ad infinitum, too.
ad infinatum
ad infinitum, too.
ad infinitum, three.
Wow,,,, Spur of the moment, stuff. :-)
Hey dude, don't be dissing us folks with 2000 start-up dates. 2000 is technically in the 20th Century, so we're old-timers, too!
I remember you "Pre-1."
Was it you that stood up for Ash one day?
Somebody said, "Ash, you stink." And you or somebody said, "Like $hit he does."
