The Overvalued Age

I liked sparing you my ramblings last week, although I think I still rambled. . .It doesn't really matter, I liked the idea of sparing you my ramblings, because it implies it'd
take less time to compile this file and subsequently less time to read it, so I'm going to give it another shot. This first paragraph wasn't my attempt, though, because
I think I rambled a little bit.

First winners this week are Bob and Chris, who really owe their 15 tokens to others.
But, they'll probably just keep 'em for themselves.

Back in my day, we didn't have aliases, we just had mirrors, and damnit, we liked it that way...

>>dustin, i really like you, i don't know how to tell you face to face, so this is the only way i can do it now, email me, and we can talk, SWABISCH@aol.com>>

Damn it this is not a dating board, It's a dating GAME!!

Krissy Lin gets 20 tokens, as does Brian. Sorry Zornog, no tokens for your How to "Play" TRG post, but Krissy's has forever made it a footnote in Random history.

Strange how a game with no rules has amassed so darn many of them.

My grandparents (on my dad's side) found a picture of some of their, and thusly my, ancestors from a long time ago. They were hillbillies. I mean it, too -- classic pose. In front of the church, suits on, dad holding the gun, no shoes on.
Bob>>

Then I'm not the only one.

(I had (have?) relatives living in the hills of West Virginia. I don't really want to know much more)

I don't want all of you to think I'm a bad skier but I've found that even if a trail is named the "Tranquil Promenade of the Sleepy Roses" that doesn't necessarily mean it's easy.

I have a can of Kensington Dust Blaster sitting on my desk, and the can is covered about an inch thick with dust. This could turn out to be a problem.

>>Am I the only person who uses karoke as a form of torchure<<

Probably. Everyone else uses karaoke as a form of torture.

Also getting 20 tokens this week, are these four guys. And, yes, they *are* guys. I think. I'm a little unsure about one of them. . .

I saw this guy with a sign that said "Why lie - I just want $$ for booze." I admired his honesty so I didn't back over him with my truck.

I just know that there is some planet somewhere inhabited by giant humanoid sticks of deodorant, and they breed these little tiny people, and they rub them on their armpits every morning, so they don't embarass themselves by smelling too good.

>>I don't know about you, but every morning in school, I pledge allegiance to Joe Mama.>>

in third grade i refused to say the pledge of allegiance, so my teacher gave me the an "equal but different" assignment: cleaning the rabbit cage.

Lndon's a guy?! It had to be done; it's mandatory, now, isn't it? Congrats to the winners. Oh, and happy Early Spring or maybe Six More Weeks of Winter! (two of the four groundhogs around this area saw their shadow; the other two overslept or something.)
