AFriendlyFace Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Speaking of writing and doing auto mechanics, one of my favorite bits of writing involves doing an auto mechanic named Jude. YES! I wouldn't have responded just to say that but it seems I've got the same problem CJ and Graeme have
C James Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 YES!I wouldn't have responded just to say that but it seems I've got the same problem CJ and Graeme have I loved Dom's "The Ordinary Us". But, Kevin, I must admit that I'm surprised to see you in an auto mechanics thread! Hmmm, as I recall, though, I was recently expressing surprise there there were in fact threads that you hadn't posted in...

C James Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 Bet yeah he read about that and decided to make amends. That's a darn good point, Bardeara! This might well have been the only such thread on GA, so it would not have been too hard..
Site Administrator Graeme Posted November 4, 2006 Site Administrator Posted November 4, 2006 That's a darn good point, Bardeara! This might well have been the only such thread on GA, so it would not have been too hard.. A more interesting trivia question would be how many threads are there that our resident master-lurker (the goat without a boat, which is why I feel safe teasing him) has NOT posted on.
C James Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 A more interesting trivia question would be how many threads are there that our resident master-lurker (the goat without a boat, which is why I feel safe teasing him) has NOT posted on. Why, Graeme, the answer is "nearly all of them"! Now, where did I put that inflatable raft...
Site Administrator Graeme Posted November 4, 2006 Site Administrator Posted November 4, 2006 Why, Graeme, the answer is "nearly all of them"! Now, where did I put that inflatable raft... I'm sorry, C James, but you've confused me. What is the reference to the inflatable raft about? And apologies to everyone who's been reading this thread -- it appears to have been hijacked
glomph Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 you've confused me. What is the reference to the inflatable raft about? How do you expect a "goat without a boat" [your words] to get to Australia?
Bardeara Posted November 4, 2006 Author Posted November 4, 2006 (edited) Is that a joke like the 'Why did the Chicken cross the road joke? Say why is everyone so bent on calling CJ a goat. I guess I am still need of some advice... it's just a different kind now. Edited November 4, 2006 by Bardeara

Site Administrator Graeme Posted November 5, 2006 Site Administrator Posted November 5, 2006 How do you expect a "goat without a boat" [your words] to get to Australia? I WAS hoping that C James would ask that question, because then he'd be admitting to being our resident master-lurker. As it is, I'm sure he could wheedle out of that confession if he tries hard enough. Oh well, he sort-of admitted it with his response above.

But Graeme, I don't deny being a lurker, and I'm flattered by your implication that I am a master lurker! So, of course I have no intention of denying it! Remember, the definition of a lurker is: lurker: One who posts occasionally or not at all but is known to read the group's postings regularly. Sincerely, CJ your resident forum lurker.

Sincerely, CJ your resident forum lurker. In that case I'm afraid you don't match... I mean lets face it, you actually have more posts then Kevin so it doesn't add up. Now I on the other hand am turning into one.... what I'm not certain yet so perhaps someone will help me out with that.

And really, if (I'm not admitting that I do, mind you) I did have a higher post total than Kevin, it wouldn't actually count because he has been at GA a lot longer than I have. Also, Kevin is our resident postaholic (hi, Kevin! ). Nope, I'm lurker, I tell ya...

Also, Kevin is our resident postaholic (hi, Kevin! ). Nope, I'm lurker, I tell ya... A lurker with (at the time of this post), 1,997 posts -- almost at the 2000 mark! I'm estimating it'll take him... let's see... about ten more minutes to reach that milestone.

Well, Graeme, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I can, due to being a lurker, guarantee you that my post counter will not be reading "2000" at any point in the future.
Site Moderator TalonRider Posted November 6, 2006 Site Moderator Posted November 6, 2006 Especially since you now have 2004 posts.
C James Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Especially since you now have 2004 posts. See? I was completely truthful! :ranger:

It's a good thing I tell you! (and you get better shades!) Heheheh let me get you a nice troll avatar heheh then I won't be alone!
