“To all, I am new here, please be gentle ----------------NOT”

“Welcome to TT.”

“Tell us a little about yourself.
If you are not a troll, welcome to TT.”

“Jello Fog? That is interesting...seems to be alot of references to Jello here!
Welcome!!!”

“A BIG OLD ALABAMA WELCOME TO YA. Is it Mr. or Mrs. Fog?”

“You know that is a problem..I don't always know if folks are Mr or Mrs..or Ms on here!! Can be tricky at times.”

“Yours is easy enough to figure out. You may call me Mr. Paddler”

“Well thank ya Mr Paddler!”

“Wink... The Sassy One...
From Canada Dry!”

“Why not at least put a state of resisdence on your profile Jello? No one's going to comb a whole state to find you, lol. It would make you seem less Trollish.”

“LOL, Sassafras. Yes, from now on whenever I meet a new hiker, I'm going to ask if they are Jello Fog. Can't possibly get me into as much trouble as asking someone if they are "DirtyOldMan", a fellow on here who hikes in PA.”

“Shouldn't that be jellow
?”

“Seems there's a lot of "new ones" around. Let's play Pin the Tail on the Troll. From now on, I take it all newbies are trolls until I gets proof otherwise!”

TROLL:
I'm not a troll. I'm not a troll.
BEDEVERE:
Uh, but you are dressed as one.
TROLL:
They dressed me up like this.
CROWD:
Augh, we didn't! We didn't...
TROLL:
And this isn't my nose. It's a false one.
BEDEVERE:
Well?
VILLAGER #1:
Well, we did do the nose.
BEDEVERE:
The nose?
VILLAGER #1:
And the hat, but he/she is a troll!

Yeah!

Well, he/she turned me into a newt.
BEDEVERE:
A newt?
VILLAGER #3:
I got better.
VILLAGER #2:
Burn it anyway!
VILLAGER #1:
Burn!
CROWD:
Burn it! Burn! Burn it!...
BEDEVERE:
Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! There are ways of telling whether he/she is a troll.
VILLAGER #1:
Are there?
VILLAGER #2:
Ah?
VILLAGER #1:
What are they?
CROWD:
Tell us! Tell us!...
BEDEVERE:
Tell me. What do you do with trolls?
VILLAGER #2:
Burn!
VILLAGER #1:
Burn!
CROWD:
Burn! Burn them up! Burn!...
BEDEVERE:
And what do you burn apart from trolls?
VILLAGER #1:
More trolls!
VILLAGER #3:
Shh!
VILLAGER #2:
Wood!
BEDEVERE:
So, why do trolls burn?
[pause]
VILLAGER #3:
B--... 'cause they're made of... wood?
BEDEVERE:
Good! Heh heh.
CROWD:
Oh, yeah. Oh.
BEDEVERE:
So, how do we tell whether he/she is made of wood?
VILLAGER #1:
Build a bridge out of it.
BEDEVERE:
Ah, but can you not also make bridges out of stone?
VILLAGER #1:
Oh, yeah.
RANDOM:
Oh, yeah. True. Uhh...
BEDEVERE:
Does wood sink in water?
VILLAGER #1:
No. No.
VILLAGER #2:
No, it floats! It floats!
VILLAGER #1:
Throw it into the pond!

VILLAGER #2:

ARTHUR:
A duck!
CROWD:
Oooh.
BEDEVERE:
Exactly. So, logically...
VILLAGER #1:
If... he/she... weighs... the same as a duck,... he/she's made of wood.
BEDEVERE:
And therefore?
VILLAGER #2:
A troll!
VILLAGER #1:
A troll!
CROWD:
A troll! A troll!...”

“Great Stuff! I remember that skit!”

“Whatever you do, please remember that dogs do not belong in the backcountry. Thank you.

LNT = LDH.”

“People hunt for me near and far!”

“Morning light filters out through the trees as I look out the window over the sink
butt crack of dawn, in just a few more minutes the coffee will be ready to drink
I decided to look in on Trail Talks and see what`s going on and what everyone has to think
I hate the white background we`re forced to view it with, some like it, why not hot pink
I saw this thread and it caused me to blink
why does it always get my attention when I see someone wink”
