“Oh and radagast is a due due head? Heck it's buried way back here on the 4th page? He'll never see this cheap shot.”

“Ummm I mean 5th page.. My bad”

“i don't get it.”

“Nullen, where ya been hiding? I think almost the last time I saw you on here was when you were going to Colorado for a short time... and WHEN the heck was THAT?!!?

Good to see ya, dude!”

“I know it's been a long time... I couldn't figure out why I was shaking all the time.. Found out it I was just suffering from TT withdraw”

“P'cola, Florida”

“Rockburn, Quebec, Canada - crossroads of the galaxy, home of the Old Pub and a host of excentrics. I, of course, am perfectly normal, that's why my students named me Gremlin. Welcome to Quebec, Pisgahforest, keep in touch and, oh yes, happy trails.”

“Trailartist and SARboy.... Tacoma Washington”

“Thought ya'll needed another newbie, originally from Wash. State ( Oak Harbor, Pullman, Yakima)most of the last 27 years in Texas (Dallas, Midland and now Houston).”

“I'm still working on this, Phil...CA is ahead by a long shot. Second place is still too close to call. Soon as I get this data sorted on an Excel spreadsheet, I'll pass it on to you.

Pardon my ignorance, alpine,a but what state is the beaver state?

All, have patience with my collecting as well as the finished product to come. Hopefully I wont' mess up too much!”

“If I'm not mistakin' the Beaver state is Oregon.”

“Yes indeed, Oregon is the Beaver State!”

“hey,this great .a stateby state troll call.well here i am just looking torake new fiends.”

“Glad to hear progress is being made!

norcal - It's "roll call", not "troll call" (that would be a different thread!).”

“Newgirl...What part of Montana are you in? I'm spending the entire summer there.”

“Yet another 'zoner from the Grand Canyon state...”

“Pineneedles did you ever state exactly what part of the Cumby Plat you are from?!”

“No naked ape, I didn't. Did you?”

“So what part are you from hikingneedles&pineboots , or what ever your name is.
The Ape man is in Knoxville”

“Hi Hank”

“Where are you walkindude...? I'm close to Crossville...I'm pretty close to Knoxville, too.”

“Murfreesboro”

“Oh yea...I'm moving to Knoxville this fall.”

“You can take Naked Apes place. He's moving to California.”

“I think I may shorten my name...hmm...just for the good of the people, of course.”

“"Pine Needles" would be pretty cool. We'd still know how you were.”

“Uh, pineneedles, I'm not sure what the big secret to your location or identity is, buuuuut, stick around awhile here and you'll notice we're a purdy nice crew. Now tis true that on occasion one'a us might be a wee bit on the scary side, take steve hiker for instance hehehe, but weez' good I promise! I'm in E Knoxville by the Eastowne Mall, pix up by Mr Phil the Great, gimme a hollar next time you're in town and me and my 2 litluns'll buy ya lunch or a coffee. Now I'm right shy, but after a while I might be forced to say a word or 2. Gimme an e sometime!

Uhhh, smidgen of a note to pineneedles: "my 2 litluns" refer to my wonderful baby daughters don'tchaknow!

Thanx for the backup WD, iza startin' to sweat it for a sec!”

“Naked Ape is a good guy.
.........when he's got clothes on that is. LOL!!!
BTW Ape, Your Topo should be home any day now.”

“I got a new name. My location is no big deal. I really am between the two towns. I live in the middle of nowhere. Crossville is the closest town, though. If I didn't think ya'll were cool I wouldn't hang around. What do ya do in Knoxville? I'm going to UTK next fall. Are you ever in Crossville?”

“Wait...now I should have a new name.”

“Radagast is already taken. Try again.”

“haha... :) why isn't it working?”

“Because Spam is also taken.”

“Ok...I'm devastated that I couldn't use my names of choice, but I gave in and stuck with Pine Needles. ;) (This had better work!!)”

“Don't use Walkinchick. I'm saving that one for my girlfriend if I can ever get her to enjoy BPing.”

“What was your name of choice?”

“YES! I've accomplished what I got up to do today. I changed my user name. I can rest easy now. Good night all.”

“Radagast and Spam...I thought you knew that...”

“It's late & I'm braindead.”

“HA!

I got Radagast's name!”

“And I got YOUR old one!”

“OK, so what's the count? Louisiana still in the lead?”

“Yeah, All of your Fire Ant buddies are on Trail Talk.”

“First time poster, tho I've been reading for about a month or so. Just wanted to say that I'm from Ferndale, which is just north of Detroit in Michigan.”

“A Month! What kept ya so quiet?!?!”

“Welcome laqtis! Where did you get your handle? How long have you been backpacking? You might want to add your bio to the bio thread. Gee, I should get around to doing that someday, too. Nice to have yet another TT'er from Michigan. :o)”

“LOL WD you'z crakkin me up bro! Great to know you're nearby Pine Needles, luv the new name btw. As far as what I do, I'm a Domestic Engineer some might say, and some might say I'm a house wench, guess it just depends on if you're askin my wife or not, hehe. And I really never get out to Crossville, but I'm out and about regularly. I take my tiny ones regularly to the zoo here and over to G-burg to the Ripley's Aquarium, and a cupla play-parks here in town.

Best of luck WD on gittin' Susan out backpacking. I took her out several weeks back, naturally she LOVED all of it except the bp'ing part of it, hehehe, (wink, wink!).

Oh, also I just thought of an awesome name for your future hiking man Pine Needles: Pine Nuts.

Wha'ya'thank?”

“Yo Ape
Remind me never to ask you for help picking me out a new name. LOL!!
So Susan didn't like the BPing part with you either hugh? What are we gonna do with that gal? Oh well, At least she's got looks!”

“I her'dat!”
