The regulars can post here to help encourage the new posters. May be a stupid idea (like half of mine, right), but I really think we need more input to keep AC from getting stale.

Yes, this thread should be for regulars like us only. I heartily agree.

The post in question was Burt's post number "666". Once he posted 667 the joke was blown. Sorry.

OK, so now I have missed the mark of the beast joke and the longest day of the year joke. I really need to get out more often so I can sit back and get these jokes. Maybe I need some tips. smile

It's still relevant Vinny.

Bert,
Even Nancy agrees. When I told her you would probably be around tonight to help me with our computer issues so I would need to be here to take you up on the offer, she said and I quote. "Tell Bert that he needs to get a life. Thanks much, but really dude". We need to get you out of there sometimes....

So what about your own Jeep Bert??? Maine is a great place to go camping and wheeling my friend. New contest for a ride in Bert's Grand Cherokee, a 5.7 litre HEMI Grand Cherokee no less!!! With a lap or two at a road ralleye course like Watkin's Glenn! With a wine tour up the finger lakes to follow....

Better yet, let's get you on a "men's league hockey team, 35 and over, no-check. Heck I'd even come to officiate on a holiday sometime and do beers and lobsters afterwards. I knew a guy who played men's league for a while. GET THIS!!! He was a dentist!!! I used to bust his chops saying, "so like what do you do, skate up to guys who don't wear full maskes or shields, elbow them in the kisser and then hand them your business card???" You can't make this stuff up.

Just how many posts do you need to be a "regular"??? And Paul, maybe you're heading in the wrong direction trying to entice Bert to "get a life". Maybe you should find him a DATE!! Sometimes the smell of exhaust doesn't excite some men the way it does for you! The aroma of a fine perfume will often do the trick (how long have you been married anyway??). Just offering a female perspective...

It's not how many posts, it's how much FIBER is in your posts, that makes you regular hehehe

First answer: One

Second answer: I so much need to find a gf, but it's hard when I am working all the time. But, I am trying.

Bert, at least you didn't say it was quality posts vs quantity posts! I always hope to post as good as I get "posted"...

Donna,
I guess you know the Post Master better than I. I was never sure, although I suspected that he was single and unattached. And the last time I went off-roading I dragged Nancy, both kids and the dog with me as a total family camping trip. I just know that Maine is so beautiful that poor lonely Bert needs to go clear his head up there doing something. Fishing, hikig, camping, wheeling, SOMETHING besides AC, computer work and charting/billing. Just like us all.

And he has a great 5.7 litre HEMI Grand Cherokee!!! Obviously he likes cars. Normal sticks in the mud may get the base model sometimes, but car guys buy HEMI's that's for sure. So I just thought it might be his kind of thing.

So, watch for my next post....In the words of Vinny hee, hee, hee. whistle

If I knew it was OK to take my leased vehicle out off roading I would. And, you forgot one of my jobs: AC, computer work, charting and defending the homeland (the AC board for Jonathan).

Hey, I would think I would get some leeway for fixing the double login and the firewall thing.

Vinny:

Your fiber analogy opens some interesting lines of inquiry:

1. If my posts are frequent and voluminous, how long until I have to worry about dehydration or electrolyte abnormalities?

2. On the other hand, is it healthy to go for more than 24 hours without posting, as long as my posts remain soft and painless?

3. If I suppress my urge to post long enough, will the urge go away? Is it healthy/safe to withhold my post, if I am busy with work/family responsibilities?

Brian,
After such interesting questions it is clear to me that you are retentive in the old freudian sense of the word. You sound like you are full of "CHITT" to me...(Sorry I just couldn't resist) I'm running for the door now to get a head start on you...HELP!!! Thanks for a good teary eyed laugh my friend...
Paul

Hey, let's quit this talk about fiber and Chitt!! Those of us born in the 1950's don't really think it is all that funny anymore. I used to read the cereal box to learn who the latest sports hero was. Now I read it to see how many grams of fiber it provides. This getting old Chitt sucks.

There's no such thing as "too much fiber".

I don't suppose anyone here remembers this vintage SNL bit:

HAHAHA...yes, Brian I remember that one. I rank it right up there with the "Bass-A-Matic" http://snltranscripts.jt.org/75/75qbassamatic.phtml
and the product that cleaned the family jewels (couldn't find the link to that one)

Man oh man...You guys are great. Those are like two of my favorite skits ever. I guess we could all date ourselves and remember the actual first broadcast of these too. I grew up in NYC and every now and again friends would get tickets to the live broadcast for that live studio audience feel. It was great to wathc these guys and the crew during the breaks do their thing.

Try this more recent one on for size...It is one of my more favorite newer ones....;)
