I found another site related to Ewker I can't even list here.. * smiles *” 3:39:52 PM 7/23/04 “That makes no sense, TownDawg. You're saying that Oprah Winfrey and a Ewker are somehow involved with an invasion from space? I need to go stock up on cheese!!” 3:40:19 PM 7/23/04 Another Ewker Hint.. “"unless you'd rather spend your spare time with a machine instead of someone of the opposite sex I say go for something besides computer science. I used to want to study CS, but decided to go into digital media instead. I still feel like I'm surrounded by the next cast for Revenge of the Nerds, but it's not as bad as CS since a lot of the people in my department actually have lives. What I'm trying to say is that if you're interested in CS you can make good money if you're good enough, but think about what you're giving up and determine if it's worth it or not."” 3:42:24 PM 7/23/04 “A ewker is a verb. As in, "OMG I've been Ewkered!", "Hey, Ewker off!", "Go Ewker yourself!", or my favorit, "Wanna Ewker?".” 3:42:52 PM 7/23/04 “TD, I don't think she went to school when I did.

Perhaps too many. So far the verb form seems to make the most sense. Ewker off just seems to flow.” 3:48:35 PM 7/23/04 “Nigal - That had me rolling!” 3:49:42 PM 7/23/04 “I think ewker is a troll of towndawg” 3:52:20 PM 7/23/04 “Nigal, in Alabama we say "Phulmer off" instead.
