    TR GeekGirls – over here! Call to arms!

    Locked

    by gadgetgirl ·

    Brief overview…..

    Mae, in one of her brilliant one liners, suggested a Men of TR Calendar…..

    Jaqui is already nominated as Mr. January. We now need prospectives for the other months.

    Oh, and the outfits they’ll be wearing…..and yes, I’ve already had muttleyfits over that!

    So – who do you see in which month of the calendar and why? Wearing what?

    Come on, girls, time to get our own back!

    Hey, if we can REALLY get them to do this, we can donate to Tig2’s Breast Cancer charities….

    (How apt ….. ]:) )

    So Jaqui, as Mr. January is sending me the link to his outfit (his requested outfit, I may add) and he’s taking January as he NEEDS a cold and gloomy month.

    He’d have too much fun, otherwise….

    Standing by for nominations, girls!

      Well…Neil would have to have a beer in his hands.. perhaps, that, tighty whities and a smile?? May?

      Max, he does need a silver hammer. And a tweed jacket. And a pipe. September?

      Oz, I dunno..something outdoorsy. A good candidate for June or July?

      This is going to take some thought. And, quite frankly, the thoughts will have to venture into some disturbing areas. 🙂

          Tighty whities- Americanism for basic mens briefs. The do NOTHING for you. 😀

        good ideas

        by itgirli ·

        In reply to GG

        I agree Oz should be june or july. he needs a bourbon in hand and the background should be the horse track.

        Max should be in a dark blue suit with a white shirt. solid tie. and waving a large american flag. September is okay, or November (election season).

        I think JD should have October. he likes his costumes

      I have to speak up and nominate JD for Mr March- 4 leaf clover, strategically placed, of course! 😀

      I like the Dawg Suit thing. I am just not certain what month is best. Humane Society Awareness??? That would make him Mr. April. (All US dates- Sorry).

      I know that the Breast Cancer 3 Day would appreciate everyone’s effort!

      you do realise there was a guy flick that had the main characters using aliases..of month names. ]:)

      Great idea! And its for a good cause, too . . .

      by av . ·

      In reply to TR GeekGirls – over here! Call to arms!

      I think I agree with Itgirli. JD should be Mr. October. I think he has a good time with Halloween. Maybe he can wear something with a cape . . . spooky yet provocative, like Van Helsing, Zorro, Dracula, Nosferatu . . . If he has alot of time and patience, he can go with Pinhead from the Hellraiser movies, but that might be a little too too.

      I think Maxwell has to be Mr. July. He is definitely Mr. 4th of July. His eagle avatar just says it to me. I can see him dressed as a variation of either Uncle Sam or Captain America. I can’t decide yet. I’m leaning more towards a Captain America look. I remember one depiction of Uncle Sam sort of – Apollo Creed in one of the Rocky movies.

      Oz, I think should be Mr. June but I’m not sure why. I think its because June is a temperate month, and Oz is very subtle. How about a toga? Grapes, etc. etc.?

      Dawg definitely has to be Mr. November. His avatar just says winter to me. He has to wear fur. Not sure how much or where. Maybe a hunting mode. Bearskin rug or bear head mounted on a wall?

      Great idea GG! :^0

        I agree except…

        by tig2 ·

        In reply to Great idea! And its for a good cause, too . . .

        While JD certainly has a great time with Halloween, I still see him as Mr March- with the appropriate strategically placed four leaf clover (wishes, anyone?).

        You have Maxwell down to the letter but the silver hammer has to come into play.

        November should be about right for the Dawg. Definitely a fur motif. And a hydrant… just in case.

        I can see Oz in June. He could make June work, I think. Toga. Hmmmm. Shorty, or full length?

        So to recap-
        January- Jacqui
        February- Open
        March- My vote is JD
        April- has to be DMambo- complete with baseball uniform
        May- Rob Mekel- too hot where he is- let’s invite him here!
        June- Oz Media
        July- Maxwell Edison
        August- Open
        September- Open
        October- If I win, open. Otherwise, JD (P.S. I should win. My b’day is in October!)
        November- Sleepin Dawg
        December- NeilB- tighty whities and all

          Aug & Sept and a nom for Feb, too!

          by gadgetgirl ·

          In reply to I agree except…

          August is classed as a summer month, all hot n stuff, so I think we should opt Sandy (deepsand) into that one. Swimming trunks, making sand castles?? !!

          September? – I think I see BFF in that (BFilmFan) Hey, he could be doing the “Directors” bit!

          Now, February (my birthday month!) is one of those odd months where it seems everyone is down, with nothing to look forward to. Summer is still far away, and Xmas has passed. So how about a bit of a cheer up with a Jellimonsta?

          He could wobble all over Feb!! (Sorry, Jell! :p )

          Right, off to find ITGirli and Cute and get them in the fray, too!

          GG

          T2 – pm SG with your birthday – she’s keeping the TR birthday spreadsheet so we don’t miss anyone’s birthday greetings! (and no, we don’t note the actual AGE just the DATE!!)

          Could not think of anyone at all for February. Jellimonta is perfect!

          August is great for deepsand, BFilmFan- September or April are the only possible months- Oscar month (April) or start of the final Oscar push (September).

          And thanks GG. I will PM SG today.

          You can just capture my image file and then paste it in your calendar.

          That will be safe enough for viewing wearing a weldrer’s mask.

          In reply to Aug & Sept and a nom for Feb, too!

          I’m a low rise brief guy.

          Anyway, I’m thinking a nautical theme, perhaps on a PT boat.

          And for Summer, we really should have Dawg diggin’ in the sand, or napping in the sun.

          We need to come up with appropriate attire for Rob Mekel. Help!!! I am so without a clue for this. I thought initially devils suit complete with horns and pitchfork but don’t know I am going down the right path. Rob is Mr May.

          I haven’t seen Mark in awhile, but i’m sure he and JD could share a page. Or Mark could have the page at the end where they do the next year all small on one page. kind of a teaser.

          Julian can be on the receiving end of Maxwell’s silver hammer.

          I’m the one taking the photos as you girls can not be trusted to keep your hands to yourselves. 😉

          As far as lying across a bonnet of a car just provided that it’s not [b]SHMBO[/b] current Favourite car it will be fine but I must warn you that I tend to cause dents which are expensive to remove. 😀

          Also I like something small narrow and throbbing between my legs a nice nimble little 900 Ducati is my preferred means of transport preferably travelling at about 280 MPH. 😡

          And then the obvious answer is that I can’t take the photo if I’m part of it and be sure that it’s all in focus. :p

          by itgirli ·

          In reply to I agree except…

          I would like to say that the thought of Oz in a toga would prove amusing.

          My disagreement lies in the selection of clothing for Max. I can’t really picture Maxwell in such gaudy garb. How about white dress shirt, blue sport coat, red tie, and American flag boxers. And he can be holding a silver hammer with the word truth engraved in it.

          I’m still voting JD for October, surrounded by severed heads. nothing but a bloody apron on.

          In reply to Only one disagreement here

          That IS the perfect attire for Maxwell. And thank you for getting the silver hammer in the shot. It wouldn’t have been Max without it.

          The shot you are thinking for JD had actually crossed my mind for Sleepin Dawg. You know the motif- dark den, bones in a corner, remains of the most recently ripped… 🙂 It works for me. And it would be repetitious to have October and November in the same… eh… vein.

          But I am confident we will find the perfect year.

          Kitty having a bout of species confusion?

          If it helps any, I have one who is certain that there is a back door in the bathroom under the stairs. She has covered every inch of space and never found one. I think that she thinks that I hide the second door.

          My kits are lovers, not fighters. Unnless there are goldfinches on the bird feeder. Callie is certain that she can go right through the window- no consequences.

          I used to play soccer druing winter and basketball during summer, I had to stop due to a motor bike accident that damaged my back. I still play ten-pin. Oh I sued to referee both soccer and basketball for years after I had to stop playing. Then again you could go back to my early twenties when I was a cop. 🙂

          There is five choices of uniform for you. At the moment my favourite oufit is thick wool and fur parka and pants. It is the start of winter down here and the outside temperature today reached a whole 12 degrees centigrade after an over night low of -3 degrees. Too cool for my preferences.

      Ladies- and lurking Gentlemen 🙂

      The year goes as follows:

      January- Jaqui
      February- Jellimonsta
      March- Only dispute- JD or open
      April- DMambo (someone should probably tell him)
      May- Rob Mekel
      June- Oz Media
      July- Maxwell Edison
      August- DeepSand
      September- BFilmFan
      October- JD or open I’ll go wth the majority on this
      November- Sleepin Dawg
      December- NeilB (in tighty whities!)

      We are still missing one and that person will either be March or October. I hear Mark might be a good choice- if he gets the nod it should be Mark in March, JD in October.

          by deepsand ·

          In reply to Ok, who’s got the Kryptonite?

          There are five distinct varieties of kryptonite (green, red, gold, blue, and white), the first three of which are toxic to Superman.

          [b]Green[/b] kryptonite, the only variety potentially fatal to Superman, induces lassitude and inertia followed by death if not removed in time from Superman’s presence.

          [b]Red[/b] kryptonite inflicts bizarre and unpredictable – albeit temporary and nonfatal – symptoms, as when it divides Superman into twins or transforms him into an infant or a giant ant.

          [b]Gold[/b] kryptonite would permanently rob Superman of his super-powers were he ever to be exposed to its radiations.

          These three varieties of kryptonite are similarly hazardous to Supergirl, Krypto the Superdog, and all other surviving natives of Krypton.

          [b]Blue[/b] kryptonite is toxic only to Bizarro creatures.

          [b]White[/b] kryptonite is harmful only to plant life.

          I had followed the link and that was as far as I went back. Hey, even [b]I[/b] can’t be perfect all the time! Especially with that draft from being forced to stand here with some garnish! :0 :8} :p

          I’d be more concerned about the fact that they think it would conceal anything. In my case, I don’t think that much garnish exists but then I’m prejudiced.

          did you really meant to say: “In my case, I don’t think that much garnish exists but then I’m prejudiced” :0 … ergo not much garnish is needed :0 😀 :^0
          I hope, for you, you meant to say: In my case, I don’t think that [b]that[/b] much garnish exists but then I’m prejudiced.
          But that is to the lady’s to decide. 🙂

      Why are you thinking so small?

      Why are you following the trend?

      Why not make a Men of TR Decade Calender and charge sooo much more for it instead of just the normal 12 month one that is so [b]COMMON?[/b]

      If you did that you could raise so much more money for Tiggers Breast [i]now what was that word again?[/i] Charity. :^0

        I’ve included a picture of myself playing with one of my various [b]Play Toys![/b] :p

        It’s the Desmo Orange Number 21 Bike with me riding it at slow speed nothing over 140 MPH at that point of the race track. 😀

        Now you’ve got your photo don’t ask for any more. :^0

        The one female Reporter that I allowed to ride it described it as a [b]Vibrator on Steroids[/b] but I don’t really know what that meant it just had a slight bit of primary inbalance in the engine. 🙂

          In reply to Col…………

          Just not naked with all that Fibre Glass covering the front of it. It’s a Ducati 1959 Factory GP 250 CC so it’s really something special they only made 5 of the things and that is [b]Number 3.[/b] :p

          By the way that was one of [b]My Play Toys [/b] and I went through a Battery per day as well as at the very least 1 rear tyre several chains and quite a lot of fuel.

          Each [b]Classic Meeting[/b] where I rode that bike only used to cost me about $900.00 in parts and fuel but that was only if I didn’t break something then it could get quite expensive. :_|

          Of Course there is [b]No Skin[/b] after all it was a real race and covered by the [b]Auto Cycle Council of Australia[/b] which has some very strict rules about the amount of what you have to wear and being a good member of that Group I couldn’t break the rules. Even if I threw it away dressed like that even on that [b]Slow[/b] section of the track the Bitumen Burns would have been very extensive under all that [b]Tight Fitting Leather.[/b] But just to keep you happy I’ll see if I can find my Favourite Shot Ever of that Ducati on the same part of the track though a bit further down only a couple of hundred feet and it for all the world looks as if I’m caring a Pillion Passenger. When [b]SWMBO[/b] Snapped it off she didn’t realise what she got and I just love it. 😀

          But if it makes you happy I’ll make the picture bigger. :p

          I said [b]Desmo Orange[/b] the 21 in that case is White on Green meaning that it’s up to 250 CC’s the Black on Yellow means that it’s an Open Class Bike over 500 CC’s. 🙂

          But that photo is quite old and both are now long dead I only have their [b]Birth Certificates[/b] left, and I can’t call them here the proper terms or at least the one meaning female Dog will get ***** out.

          The Black Dog was called [b]Gundga Din[/b] and the Fawn B ITCH was called [b]Khan.[/b] But if you want to hear something really funny the black one used to hide under that couch when he was scared or had done something wrong when he was a puppy and he hid quite well. Unfortunately he never grew out of that and I would come home quite often and see one end of the couch sitting about 2 feet off the floor with the dog under it. He was looking out but thinking that no one could see where he was. :^0

          The Fawn one after she had weaned any puppies tried to hide from them and she found a place that was almost impossible to reach as a hiding spot. This worked out quite well for her till the puppies where about 8 weeks old and one of them found her hiding spot you should have seen the look of [b]Total Disgust[/b] on her face as she retreated from that spot. The puppy naturally took all of his litter mates up there so the poor girl could never hide there again. 😀

          The worst thing about Danes is that they are so protective that we could never smack the children when they had done something naughty both of these K9’s would get between you and the child in questions and cry. It was really pathetic. But when the kids upset them enough and they really had to push things both would just get up walk away and as they passed the child swing their hips and send the child flying to the floor. They could punish the children but we couldn’t. :p

          My daughter used to walk the black one when she was little she was actually so young that you couldn’t see her head over his back just her legs if you where on the other side of him and it looked so funny. She actually thought that she was walking the dog when actually he was protecting her. When he was with her no one unknown to the dog got anywhere near her. 🙂

          Although I musty admit that they are slowly getting better now that they are both over 30. I’ve only spent 3 days this week working on my sons wifes car. 🙁
          My daughter is slightly better as she only comes down on an irregular basis now that she lives well over 3 hours driving away but to make up for it she stays overnight or better still dumps her stuff here and goes out when she feels like it. Although her boyfriends 12 week old puppy is a cutie. Pity about all those needle sharp teeth that she insists on using on my toes. 😀
