Barkeep...a round for the house

Monday, July 22, 2002 by Kinrik | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I love this place. Whether you like it or not, this site is democracy at work (secrectly financed and truely run by aliens, who take turns posing as Frogboy)...

Freedom of expression, to be allowed or removed based on your overall accountability to act as a decent part of the community, to do as you will for the most part, to have access to opinions and creations of others...I like it here.

Sorry, I haven't downloaded anything. This doesn't mean I don't like or appreciate the artistic ability, design ability, technical knowledge, or creativity of anyone here. I just want to be able to hold it over everyone's head (...heads....heads'...um, where's Jafo when you need him?) that I am not freeloading from this place. (there aren't many of us here )

Seriously, though, to all who are here because they enjoy it here, not because of a self-fulfilling need to be accepted into some clique or fancy social offshoot, or to be number one in uploads, downloads, or any other perceived competition, but to those who are here to share and chat and provide insight and some helpful (intended to be) words, a toast.

Personally, I'd like mine lightly buttered, with cinnamon and sugar on it

Frogboy, if I am not intruding, and yes, you can be vague, is there any benefit from clicking the banner ads on this site? Do you get something tangible from clicks, or only if the other end actually makes a sale?

If you just need clicks, I'd be more than happy to start doing that, as well as trolling, I mean perusing and being active on the message boards.

You know, I only hang out on this board because I lack the skill to get upgraded to a 1 on a skin rating

Just ask BoXXi...he's seen my few attempts at skinz

'everyone's heads', kinrik...[it's not a collective singular, like 'over the crowd's head'].... Spell checker

Callahan's Crosstime Saloon, from a Sci-Fi series. See http://www.scifi.com/sfw/issue32/callahan.html

Kinrik, as was said to me recently, even though you don't skin, your posts are a valuable contribution to the community. Besides, you buy drinks! Thats good enough for me!

"enunciation', kinrik...and is it 'jarhead' or 'knuckle-head'?...

knuckle-head is what old people call young people

it is definitely jarhead, although I have been letting the hair grow out to about two inches or so, and wearing t-shirts, instead of stiff collars...

watch it, or I'll swing by Brisbane again and look you up, and then tell your wife you sleep with a dictionary when you are away from home

"So this penguin walks up to a giraffe, and opens a briefcase..."

...ever feel like you are missing the punch line?

kinrik...don't forget, Australia is a tiny little island...and Brisbane is only, ooh, 500 yards from Melbourne...

Yeah, right....

hey, according to the map, it is 4cm away

hell, I'm only about a foot away according to this globe thingy...be right over!

actually, I could probably be there in a day and a half, depending on your speed limits and my driving

of course, that would mean flying over there first...
