“WK--

Don't talk to that magazine forum wanker wannabe!”

“rd--
you spelt 'jellow' wrong.”

“So far the new people are pretty entertaining! I guess I'll let them stay.”

“Hey Ron, where you live in IL? You work downtown? If so, we should do lunch.

Thanks for the invite WK!

I'm a suburbanite in the Downers Grove area. Unfortunately I don't get downtown very often to take you up on your offer.

“You guys should go to Giordanos. Then after that you should go play miniature golf.”

“"Don't talk to that magazine forum wanker wannabe!"

Even as an adult I don't get accepted by the cool kids, lol.

"You guys should go to Giordanos"

I prefer Uno's

“Giordanos is better!”

“Giordanos is better!

But I have two Giordanos close to my house! No UNO's out here anymore.”

“Do I smell Chicago TT lunch?”

“Lunch? Hope it's not pizza. Their pizza sux. :p

I bet you would like Lou Malnatis pizza.

Our thin crust pizza doesn't get a lot of press but I actually eat way more thin crust pizza than deep dish.”

“Ah well. You're ok then.

;>”

“Where did the new kids go? Oh, I guess Barney & Friends is back on over on the other side.

They were a fun little bunch.”

“I think they just wandered off for awhile as the otherside wasn't up a few seconds ago...we have a lot of new blood over there and, gasp, there are quite a few who backpack!”

“I'm here...and there.

While I'm here, we can have the party though.... :)”

I wonder if they cook up as tasty as the last visitors?”

“We welcom newbies, but they have to bring the booze for everyone to their first three trips.”

“I bet they'd be good with a nice cranberry sauce, in honor of Thanksgiving.”

I never got that memo when I signed up...”

“Consider yourself served.”

“The memo will be sent out to you after you send me your membership dues.

Who cares about that? What I want to know is whether they're extra crispy or original recipe?”

“Which one said he lurked for a long time, but didn't begin shooting his mouth off 'til he had some of his buddies to prop him up?

Lame-O...........”

“I believe that would be the guy who created his account yesterday.”

“24 hour waiting period and all that don'tchaknow”

“�The memo will be sent out to you after you send me your membership dues. - Creek Dancer

I got some email from a dude in the UK who's related to some guy in Africa that said I inherited 10million dollars. How about I forward you the email, you claim the 10million, take out the membership dues, buy the drinks, and we'll call it even?

That sounds like a good plan if you ask me!”

“Deal! Hey, now hold there a second buster. This is a hoax, right?”

“"Which one said he lurked for a long time, but didn't begin shooting his mouth off 'til he had some of his buddies to prop him up?"

you talking about me?”

Well then, I'm glad I've exceeded 3 TT trips. The last one would have broke the bank.

“girl, you DID bring booze for everyone - you had most of the campground wobbling around from that vile creek water you were servin' up!”

“Seriously. Although Pennsy may have drank most of it.”

“tee hee... That was FUN!

Pennsy should be at all the gatherings I'm at. Along with Calmwater. ;)”

“Roam, that wasn't vile. That was smoooooth. And quite tasty if I might say so. :)”

“I drank quite a bit of water from the creek. It was very refreshing :)”

“But didn't Pennsy pee in the water source... ???”

many many times!!!”

“"They wuld prolly be perty tatsy netx That Satterday with gran daddy saws."
~Lary

BOL! That is what I wuld say to! (with sketty an pye to tho, bwt).”

“Ms Doo, Keep your eyes pealed for the world's largest prairie dog in Kansas. It'll be on your left. It's only the Western part that can be monotonous. But, if you look close enough you can find beauty anywhere. Nothing beats a Kansas wheat field or the fields and fields of sunflowers, or lightning storms over the flat plains. Too bad your likelihood of seeing any of those is pretty low.
Have a safe trip girlfriend and good luck in CO!”

“Isn't the slogan over there, "backpacker.com, home of the fantasy backpacking team"? I heard there was a lot of excitement on this years fantasy gear draft.”

“"Wait till he finds out about your political leanings.."

He was snarky to me before we even butted heads in another thread.

Kinda a made me feel like the welcome you, uncjol and Raz gave me at the other side when I first posted in THR.”

“Another gay thread.”

LOL! I give nearly the same welcome to everyone. What differs is the fodder they provide. And my mood at the time.
