10 years.....holy crap.
« on: September 06, 2015, 12:43:51 AM »
Time flies when you're having fun, does it not?

I didn't even realize how long I'd be around this place.

Here's to a damned fine 10 year run for this forum of rogues.... :old:

Actually, the anniversary of APS was back on March 3rd.  So, we're only 6 months behind on celebrating, that's pretty good for this place.

Jeeze, I just looked at my stats.

A hundred and two days online here.  Admittedly, a lot of that time was spent with the page up while I composed one of my massive missives.

Or went to the bathroom.

Apparently I didn't register until Feb '06.  IIRC THR was still decent then, and other than lurking here occasionally to see what "Roundtable" posts were going I was probably holding off to see it would stick around or get interesting.  Now, I honestly can't remember the last time I logged onto THR.

This is my last forum board. I don't frequent any others.

I guess if I was going to waste time with some folks you guys/gals are as good/bad as any other  :laugh:

March 04, 2005, 07:54:53 AM, member #104 in other words this place was doomed from the start!

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I don't consider those two endeavors to be mutually exclusive.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Re: "Composing" versus "bathroom-going":

I don't consider those two endeavors to be mutually exclusive.

Correct:  Inclusive or, not exclusive or.  "And/or" in common parlance.  As opposed to "or and not and" or something like that in geekese.  Or "nand." Or "not nor." But not "nor." Or something. I'm quizzleated on that one.

I registered on the first day. All you newcomers are blocking my view!

#58!

Where's you get your member number from?  Maybe I just don't have my member-number glasses on, but I couldn't find mine.  I was an automatic transferee from THR (org) to THR (com) to APS or something like that.  I'm quizzleated on that one, too.


Now I wonder who member # 230 is.

As long as we're measuring things, are we using inches or centimeters?

Oh wait, I got it now.  I'll have 10 years next January.  I still lurk on THR and post occasionally, but that's mostly because APS is blocked on AF computers and THR isn't.  So I spend time there on my lunch break (and no other time, natch).

I hit 10 years on December 16. I was still in high school when I joined.

Since then I've earned two college degrees with a third currently in progress, got married, bought a house, and have a little one due to come at the beginning of January 2016. A lot sure has happened.  =)

Don't click, just linger over the member name. Down at the bottom of the screen it will give you the member number.
