Don't You Just Hate It When...

“my dog rolled in #&%!$”

“I hate it when the electrical engineer that is designing the project that I'm doing comes to work early, runs off the road in a snow-storm, steps out of his car to make a phone call to the county sherrif's office, and gets hit by a van who runs off the road in the exact same place, killing him instantly while he's still on the phone. I HATE when that happens.”

“Being in a different time zone from the rest of you by about 17 hours.”

“There are some night owls here too.”

“I dont know, I asked once earlier if there were any other internationalsits, but alas no.”

“How about Kiwi's? How do they feel about being called that?

Be cool to get somebody in Nepal to sign on, send us some shots.”

“I`m one of the night owls and I talk to a lot of Aussies on ICQ, but none of them are into backpacking that much.”

“I had an Aussie roomate for a while. I think Aussies are very much like Americans, and the accent even sounds British with a southern drawl, to me.”

“I work with a Kiwi, they dont mind. In fact they quite like being called that, anything that differentiates them from Aussies.(I might also point out it's vice/versa too!)”

“Whats ICQ?”

“Bunyip, a lot of us here on TT chat a lot on ICQ, it`s like AOL, or instant messanger. Mine is messed up right now, but I hope to have it fixed by next week.

There`s a lot of threads here about ICQ, do a search and get hooked up, we`ll talk!”

“Thanks mate, I'll have a sticky beak.”

“Great,.. I look forward to chewing the fat with you at a later date,...

My ICQ number is, 102403775”

Gear Slut

Were you that drunk? Lol

"...you look down and notice you have two different boots on..."

Better than having your fly unzipped the whole day.”

“Oh I dont know, the feel of the breeze going through your hair(s).”

Oh $hit!!!”

“Bunyip, is that a reference to Gear Slut?

You can catch a cold if you shaved.

You're right Snow Nymph...it's 4am here and I gotta be up at 9:30am...Oh Chit.”

“When you have to work on the weekend and you can't go backpacking.That makes me mad...”

“When you don't have to work on the weekend, but other obligations prevent you for going backpacking.”

“That hardly ever happens to me.I let nothing stop me the best I can....:)

Job and Family thats the only things that are going to stop me and real bad weather and the dam job....:(”

“Kleetn posts pictures of squirrel's nuts. Rude”

“Yer little baby is sick, throwing up and runs....for 5 days. :o(”

“Poor Sassafras and little one. Thats tough. Be sure to have baby's ears checked. Thats a long time for throwing up and the runs, watch out for dehydration and consider going to see a Dr.”

“Sassafras, do you have bad milk? Lol...sorry to hear about your child's condition.”

“When you come back come back to the office after traveling on business and some one has stolen your comfy chair and left you a piece of garbage to sit on.”

“Happened to me too! Sat down on the chair and the seat moved independent of the base. Stood up and the seat fell off the base. No replacement. Had to go home! Shucks!!”

“Identify who stole your chair, then wait...

After a couple of years, mix up some paint exactly the same color as the seat of the chair, sneak in early one morning, and paint the seat of the chair.”

“You realize of course this means war!”

“Why do I have the theme from "Get Smart" playing in my head, all-of-a-sudden?


Kill the light, Hymie.”

“Sorry about that chief.”

“when your getting ready to bid on an item on ebay. The time is down to less than one minute, you waiting anixously to place your bid. Then bam it happens the electricity goes out.

When the electricity comes back on the auction is over and you would have won the item if you could have bid :(”

“LOL! Man, that's rough, Ewker!”

“High end ebay snipers like myself have UPS's so power interuption isn't an issue.”

“Bison, that doesn't do any good when the cable goes out to.”

“You said it was the electric, not the cable pfffffftttt.”

“How do you know you would have won Ewker? I only did ebay a few times, but I thought people put in a "max bid" and you wouldn't really know what that is unless you outbid it. Is there some way you can tell that somebody has "maxed" their bid? If not, maybe you shouldn't feel so bad. Maybe the dude who won bid some crazy high number?”

“A good sniper has a fair idea on what it's gonna take to win an item Sarge. Keep at it and you'll develop your ebay powers...”

“Bison, we have those UPS's boxes on the important people's computers at work. They found out yesterday that they had died.”

“They had UPS's that died? How old were they? From the sixties or something? WTF... that shouldn't happen.

Of course you could go real high end and get a backup generator.”

“I did get pretty good at that, so I know what you mean by "ebay powers". You get a sense of things. I figured out sniping without reading about it and got it down pretty good. But, I'm just trying to put a positive spin on this. I mean, you really don't know for sure ... Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing some good ebay tips.”

“sarge, I have been watching this item for a while. It has been selling in one price range for every auction. This time it sold way less than normal. I almost put my max bid in with 5 minutes left but thought that was to early.

There are 3-4 more of the same item up for bid now and I am watching those. problem is people are already running the price up on 1-2 of them and the auction doesn't end for 5 days

“so were you trying for a ghost in a jar, or a bowl of oatmeal with an imprint of the Virgin Mary's left elbow in it? haha, i almost said something else instead of "elbow," but thought i'd cease and desist in case i still have some chance of not going to hell.”

“Bison, they were approx 7 yrs old. The VP is going to buy everyone one now”

“Ewk, yeah it sucks when the aution lasts for days ... good luck.”

“Batteries do not last forever.
LOL”

“I'm a good ebay sniper....hee hee hee”

“Did it arrive yet Em?”

“no! I think it will be here today though.”
