What are you known for?

“wife? dude you're like 21, why tie yourself down so young.. i hope you're talking about a girlfriend.”

“no im married...but only for a specific reason...its just a loose relationship between us...im not even sure of the details myself sometimes...”

“Wow.. some really nice posts.. hey Gabby.. LOVED yours.. I know you well enough I could actually hear you SAYING those words too.

:)”

“For being a storehouse of trivia and obscure facts gained through decades of voracious reading/TV & movie watching and years in the news business. As with Phaedrus, I' play a mean game of Trivial Pursuit (at least as long as my memory holds out).

Usually a plus, but not always, I'm known for working well under short deadlines, and definitely not a plus, people seem to pick up quickly that I'm usually willing to take on more work.

And I am a fairly obsessive trip planner. If my wife isn't in the mood to pack for a trip, I'll do it for her.

Oh, and I'm a sarcastic smart a$$, though I try to keep it under control. Which is why I usually just avoid the political/religious threads on TT.”

“"no im married...but only for a specific reason...its just a loose relationship between us...im not even sure of the details myself sometimes..."

ok”

“Sweet, Kind & Innocent (if I had any friends)”

“Whadda ya think, Scorch, someone getting a green card out of it?”

“def”

“yeah she is...but it is/was a real relationship...”

“no arguments here...just being nice like i always am...”

“sorry about the "was" part”

“Ah, my nose for news still works! Well, shep, I do wish the best for you. Relationships are tough to sort out in the best of circumstances.”

“and this is definitely not the best of circumstances...one way or the other i wont let it bother me...i know i got skills enough to hook one..”

“And if you had a fault, which you OBVIOUSLY don't... it's modesty.”

“OK, I'll confess; about 13 years ago I drove our cross country team 620 miles through a blizzard from Montana out to Fargo, North Dakota--on the wrong weekend....

The press got hold of it and it went out on the AP wire and ended up all over the world. I got calls from papers all over the country and Sports Illustrated even put the story in with a little cartoon of a musher with a little team of runners pulling a sled.

There, I feel better.

The next year wasn't much better- our bus caught on fire on the way back from Nebraska.”

“damn shep, sorry 'bout that man. At least now I know I'm not the only guy with a "unique set of circumstances" in his relationships.”

“yeah well im not dwelling on it...i just thought id (ah hmm) let all the single backpacking women out there know...lol”

“aero - you rock!!”

“Hey Shep: I was single here first, get in line man!”

“Being very strange!Not being Normal nor conforming to what people think is right or wrong.

Saying what I want and not careing what people think of it or me.

Being a big silly kid at heart!

8)”

“Uh, Roam... There are people who have been single here for years, LOL

Take a number!”

“Skateboarding.

I'm a hometown hero from the mid-80s when I skated for a team on the E coast and got to do demos, judge contests and travel. It was before the X-games, but the activity is still the same...except nobody got paid the $$$ they do now.”

“I'm noted for scaling the highest peaks in the Billing Heights - solo and without supplimental oxygen.”

“Falling on my ass at REI, lol...”

“My hang time is such that I can dunk with my right hand and then the left before I hit the floor.

The real one is that I can "usually" get away with damn near anything.”

“my impeccable dress and sense of fashion.”

“What would be more interesting would be what do OTHER people know you for. EXAMPLE: Nigal is the guy with the most toys, the wierd brother, worlock eyebrows, and has a girl dog that likes to chase men in tights-yea, I got him down.”

“OK I'll go again-
This time I'll leave out names and see if you can guess who.
1)That crazy dude that gives stuff away and has the enthusiasim of a 6 year old.
2)That one chick with awesome ocean of blone hair that attracts BP dudes like a clearance sale at REI.
3)She's a short red headed fire ball with smarts galore, make the best apple pie and is the biggest flirt I know.
4)That one redneck girl that always holds everyone up 'cause she keeps tring to fish when she should be hiking. Hey! that's me.”

“1)That crazy dude that gives stuff away and has the enthusiasim of a 6 year old.

4)That one redneck girl that always holds everyone up 'cause she keeps tring to fish when she should be hiking. Hey! that's me."

WHATS WRONG WITH THAT???”

“Nothing far as I can see. I think I hike to fish. I'm sorry you don't know any of the people-yet. But your pimpingly right on the CMB!Here is a new one.
5)He is Georgia boy who is always looking for a good trail time.”

“i'll be known as the man who had the 3 most awesome boys one could ask for....

for being happy even when i'm miserable....

for loving God, nature, and music...

for being able to rock the house for 20 minutes with a power-shuffle in A...

“hey that sounds like me...i usually dont have to look far...for those of you who read about the whole tree incident...i dont look for good times i create them..all alone if necessary”

“Well I have always been told I am cute ,,,which was fine when I was a kid...and ok as a teenager,,,,and didn't seem a big deal till my thirties....but now at over 40...well cute isnt' cutting it.. lol

Ok but I am known for my artwork and my smile.

“I F**kin' ROCK!”

“2)That one chick with awesome ocean of blone hair that attracts BP dudes like a clearance sale at REI.

Silly Shep, that can only be the most babelicious lady on TT!”

“Nothing, nothing at all.”

“...known for my home made pizza.”

“still in the woods...i dont know anyone from TT so..im lost”

“Aero,
I am laughing so damn hard that I'm crying!!!!! You did that?!?!?!?!? I'll bet you had a good time in Fargo, my old stomping grounds. Can you say balmy?”

“So anyway.. since I started this thread..

That guy who works a lot.. mostly out of town.. not sure what he does.. but apparently makes good money..

That guy who lives in that house over on Cary.. between the Hoppers and the Frenchs... with the really huge yard..

That guy who knows a lot about computers.. and can program them and fix them if you need him to..

That guy who sings in church.. teaches a sunday school class.. and has even led music..

That guy who coached several years.. baseball, softball.. and soccer.. had some really good teams when his kids were younger..

That guy who married Maurice and Barbara's daughter.. and have two really smart kids.. the oldest goes to Vandy, and he is brillant, they say.. the youngest is still in high school..

That guy who likes to go out in the woods.. (heard that he goes with people he meets over the Internet, can you imagine that??)hiking over mountains and stuff..

That guy who used to play in rock bands years ago.. and was supposedly really good.. even spent quite a bit of time in recording studios..

That guy.. he's one of Kenny's friends.. they go to Titans games a lot..

So what am I known for? Depends on who you talk to apparently..

:)”

“The guy who is my friend and is always so nice to me. :-)
Thanks for being you!”

“So... someone saw the "word picture" thread on "the other side," hmmmmm???

LOL... I am know for my sometimes brazen forthrightness. :-)”

“I'm the black private dick that's a sex machine to all the chicks.”

“omg shaft...that's crazy”

“I am finding out lately that one reason lots of folks don't want to get out on the trail with me..... is because they are scared of what the trip will be like.
They don't want to climb, belly crawl, swim in rhododendron, get dirty, do anything involving rope, don't want to go where there is no trail, don't want to do anything that involves miles of straight uphill, etc.
I have a feeling I had better modify my ways or I'll be by my lonesome alot!! My reputation precedes me too many times these days.”

“A person who doesn't like to talk too much about himself, so.........

actions speak much louder anyway

:)”

“Friendship is like peeing your pants.......
Everyone can see it, but only you can feel it's true warmth.”

“I'm pretty much known for being dumb. But I'm also known for being darn ugly.”

“I may be dumb, but I'm ugly.”

“AwWww.. ( blushies )”
