Hi All (an Ice Tea Thread)

“For the past few weeks, I have been at track practice until 7 o?clock every night. I would get home, do my home work (yes, I?m trying to do better), study, eat then sleep. After my 3rd marking period grades, I need to do better this marking period. I didn?t fail or get a D but I was pretty close to it. Starting two Sundays ago I lost my internet for 3 days because of a viruses threw the schools entire net work. My shop teacher took the internet of my computer because the class was always messing around online and never doing work, so I can?t post at school any more (soon I will, I?ve almost figured how to put it back on). Then after that was fixed I was in the mid set of working supper hard so I get higher grades. My track season is starting to wine down so I will have a little bit more time for you guys.

It is true, I do idolized Rad. I think he is a very intelligent guy, knows a sh!t load about backpacking, and he shares many interests that I do. When I first came to this site I found Rad to be incredibly funny an exceedingly intelligent about hiking. He doesn?t crack as many funnies as he used to, but the man is still pretty damn funny. He also was the first one to talk to me online, via AIM and the first to defend me when I first started off at this wild and crazy site.

Matt and I, are cool as far as I know, I?ve sent him e-mails before about the trolling and he seems to get a kick out of us trying to figure out who is who. I don?t think he likes trolls them selves, just the guessing game.

LipStick, I never got any e-mail from you. I still have my Dom e-mail and I check it every day.

FBI, I am not.

53, I am not.

Tomorrow I?m not running track so I can stay up late and talk to you all. However not many of you are online. I came back tonight to check how every one was, and expected a completely new format. . Well I?m happy to see that so many of you care about me. Violin, I have included TT in just about every turning point in my life so I can see how that could happen. You?re a Jersey boy right? Maybe we can hike together.

Well I?ll be checking in more often now, so I don?t give any one a scare.”

“I`m glad to see you back, I thought they`d locked you in your locker again!LOL”

“Fess up, Tea. You have been busy looking for those Bombing files haven't you. So predictable.”

“It's him, it's really him! He said his track season is starting to wine (wind) down. He also spelt super, supper. He spelt my name with a capital S in it and put two periods at the end of a sentence.

Ice Tea, young man, do you know how worried I was? Don't ever disappear like that again, unless of course you are abducted by aliens or tied to a tree etc., etc., lol

I sent you and e-mail yesterday to your dom...address and it said there was no address by that name anymore. I'm getting off the internet now, so I will try it again another day.

I just asked you in the e-mail if you thought you could just disappear without anyone noticing, lol.

It's good to see you back.”

“Welcome home Tea. I figured you was grounded or something.”

“that kid is the bizzomb!

now get them grades up, dammit!”

“Yeah, Listen to your dad!”

“Rads my dad???”

“yup, and LH is your mom.”

“What a disfucntional family.”

“Your telling me? My mom lives in seatle, my father (whos a pimp) lives in george”

“I see a great Sally Jesse show here.

BTW Ice Tea, with everyone so aware of your spelling issue, there is no way you will be able to slip by with term papers off the internet. We English teachers keep a database of kids on this stuff. But your FBI buddies should be able to lose all the papers anyway, so not to worry.

Glad you weren't abducted by aliens -- or the Sopranos.”

“Tea ya need to take an ECT with us so everybody can see you're for real.”

“Blood Mtn is the first of June. Get on that bike and start peddeling.”

“LOL, I don't know if my mom would like the idea of me hiking in the woods with people she, nor me has ever met inpersone before.”

“Huh? Hasn't she seen deliverance?”

“You mean persons other than your dad, Rad? Time for a little man-to-man with your Pop, and sitting around a trailside campfire is as good a place as any for this talk. Up for it Lounge Lizard?”

“Yeah Tea
And Don't forget tommorrow's Mothers Day. Give Lipstick Hiker a call.”

“Tea your mom has nothing to worry about. We'll only be a few miles from Aintry.”

“LMFAO!!!!!!
You got it Steve H.!!!”

“I want to wait until I'm 17 so I can drive there and back. And so my mom doesn't have a say in the matter. However, I can't drive out of the state until I'm 18.”

“Ice Tea, I know you have one mom already and don't need another one, but I'd be happy to be a substitute when your mom is in the shower or busy doing household chores :{}”

“LH, I was going along with the joke. I can't stand my current mother, neverless another one to hound me about school work, chores, and ect.”

“Ice tea, I hope you were joking about not being able to stand your mom. Look at the calender man.”

“You should be so luckey to have a Mom who "hounds" you in the ways you stated. It may suck now, but someday you'll appreciate the guidance. Trust me!”

“cool! LH and i GOT IT ON!!!!!

yeah, baybee, yeah!!!!”

“I think I could do a day hike with some of you guys, on a very populer trail. Maybe, my mom isn't big on technology so she probly still thinks that every one online is insane. My respons to that is... No, not every one... Just all the people at trail talk.”

“Glad to hear you're back from the dead.

I was thinking that your school must have done a security review in the wake of that bomb threat and caught you posting from school. They notified your parents and they pulled your internet privileges. I thought that wrath-of-the-hiker was your mom trolling for information on what poisonous ideas you'd been exposed to here.

Suppose I'm just paranoid, or am I really posting to the FBI?!!

BTW - Don't resent your Mom. She's not hounding you to make herself feel good, it probably bothers her to have to be after you but she does it out of love and concern for you. I felt the same way at your age and have been told by my 12 year old that I annoy her with my nagging. If you're like most of us, you won't appreciate her until your grown and have kids of your own - by then it could be too late to say thanks.”

“Oh yeah, it would be cool if we hiked together sometime. I am real busy now adding space to my home to make room for the baby who is due June 9th (third kid in a currently three bedroom home). I'm not sure when my wife will let me leave once the new one is here but we'll see.”

“Well I wasn't taking any time real soon. I was talking maybe next summer.”

“Cool.

Perhaps I'll bring my beautiful oldest daughter along.

Easy there!”

“how old is she?”

“You mean not this summer coming up, but next summer? You like to plan ahead don't you, lol. I understand why you are waiting.”

“AW MA GAWD, It's ICE TEA! (BLUSH BLUSH)”

“ice tea is gittin' all excited! it's a GIRL!!! ooohhhhhhh, teeeeaa!!!!!!”

“I think Ice Tea likes you Rad!”

“Rad and Ice Tea, sitting in a tree, K I S S I N G, first comes T then comes N, then comes F in a baby carrage!

YAY!!!! TNF!!!! WOOO WHOOO!”

“Ice Tea, ALL people on the internet are freaks. Either fat old pervs or FBI agents”

“hmmm, his dealer must have come through.”

“CARRIAGE!!!!!”

“I knew that would get him! Those pesky hormones.

Tea - she's twelve going on seventeen. Three years is a big difference at your age and besides, I'm very protective. But who knows what the future holds? I'm seven years older than my wife. If you'd just lose that 'teenage victory counsel for republicans' thing I'd consider you a worthy suitor for her (in about 10 years).”

“Hey Ice Tea,

Make sure you never have sex. Sex is just as bad as smoking the royal doobage! Drinking is bad as well. If you combine the royal doobage, drinking, and sex, you are a very bad boy. On the other hand if you are going to do one of those three (sex), you may as well go all the way and just get tanked on the royal doobage and the drinks. It's better to start early too, because then you will get used to getting it up on the doober!

Good luck!”

“Did I mention the ROYAL DOOBAGE... ok, just making sure!”

“As promised:

I think you need to be more respectful of others and you also need to realize that one day you will decay into the ground.
