Re: Some jump the shark...
Considering I cooked her a fine breakfast, cleaned both bathrooms, cleaned out the refrigerator, walked the dogs, and took care of the baby all night, methinks you'll find my wife hard to convince...
I just thought I'd get it over with so we can all move on

Oh that we could . . . methinks JG will be in a snit when he finds out, and this will only escalate the problem.* Now, if we could take away his "copy key". send him a chicklet keyboard like his webtv had. and count words instead - then we might be able to move on.*

Re: Some jump the shark...
Duh!
I thought 'I' was the one with webtv - AND sticky keyboard!
Alas - even 'powered up' with a real computer now - I still can't type worth spit.
I only post to keep the front runners alert and in shape. Don't want anyone resting on their laurals and slacking off.
Right  ?

Re: Some jump the shark...
hey...*I've* never seen JG and unclemick in the same place at the same time... hmmm...
Maybe unclemick is not only a 14 year old girl from missoula, he's also JG?
He can snit. He can have this 'title' back. I've had it twice. Cant think of a lot of things i've had twice that I wanna have again...

Re: Some jump the shark...
I gotta tell ya...................I enjoy this stuff (and my cool crown)
but in the big scheme of things it's all pretty insignificant.
Believe it or not, I have quite a full life outside of this forum.
Anyway, I will not be making any attempt to recapture the post
total lead. I will continue to pontificate though, at least until
I decide to go and look for Ted

Re: Some jump the shark...
The epic battle has been amusing! Still, I plan on takin' both y'all out someday!
.....after all, I am 12 years younger than TH, and slightly more than that with regards to Mr. Gault, so I could rack it up in the nursing home when they croak!
Edit: Well crap, I missed my own mini milestone. Happy one thousandth to me! Does this mean I need an intervention, too? Where is my decoder ring

Cut-Throat, Unclemick, Wab, Mikey, SG-- I'm not in the race. My post count will directly reflect cerebral hyperactivity, or else a lack of surf. I'm going for thought-provoking quality instead of leapfrogging.

But if the metric was word count, you might have the title, Nords.
