is this to do with you lot and your "elite" TR group?? Huh?? Go on, tell me, I can take it...
( *sob* no i can't. I can't bear to not have access to all the gossip and inappropriate carry on)

Now, if i try to access a post from a contact, it brings me to a page saying:
"You have reached a restricted page, click here to continue"
and clicking it takes me back to main discussion page.

Is this a big conspiracy? Is the Da Vinci Code true? Is Atlantis under the Antartic ice? And most of all..Why DID the chicken cross the road.

Please, anybody, I need answers to these questions.

woodsheds are useful for other things too.. ]:)

*sigh* so its even better than the normal area then..
just so not fair :)

by sleepin'dawg

occasionally some of the participants take it off on a tangent. If you want to be included send Jay or Smorty a pm offering annual midnight trysts on February 30th of each year and I'm certain they will gladly admit you.

It is kind of fun and you'd probably fit right in.

i'll have to consult my scheduale :P
not sure Feb is a good month for me to commit to on an annual basis..

what else do you reckon they'd go for :)

by tig2

I think that the insider area is kept strictly from women. They are afraid we will take over. It is a normal "guy" reaction to the presence of intellegent women. :D

Okay- you probably aren't buying that. Neither am I.

As I understand it, TRI is a space that things go to beta test. Sometimes that includes discussion about the boards and what is happening in the "outside of TRI" world.

The da Vinci code is a book, Where is Antartica?, The chicken had no idea there WAS a road- and besides, she was stapled to a disaffected Gen-Xer.

And 42. We cannot forget 42.

by shellbot

a conspiracy then..yes, i have noted that only guys seem to be the ones included..

well tig, do we offer ourselves up for these annual midnight romps in an effort to be allowed in..or do we just walk away with our dignity intact?

(do we really need our dignity?)

by jaqui

gadget GIRL, stargazerr, maecuff are all in it. ]:)

so it's not guys only.

heck, I'm in it so it's not even limited to normal humans. :D

by tig2

doesn't come in all too handy. Perhaps we SHOULD find out what the entrance fee is and determine if we can afford to pay.

And if we go as a team, we can wreak all kinds of havoc!

by sleepin'dawg

if I'm actually crazy enough to finish this sentence. :^0 Sad to say not so much crazy as scared.

Are you human, jaqui???
Checking your avitar, looks more to a ghost or saint to me. ;)

But for sure girl's/lady's are in :) even nice ones to :D

With the right plea's (or pleases) to the right persons you migth get in :D ;)

Rob

by gadgetgirl

note he really does like living and didn't finish that particular sentence....

Scaredy Dawg :^0 ???!!!

Yes, there are a few of us females in TRI, but I bet there's a 10-1 ratio!!

It's very similar to here, we just get to scream louder about site probs in that section!

really don't want to PO the ladies of TR. Only Neil possessed the temerity for that and he has been paying for it ever since.

[b]Dawg[/b] ]:)

by gadgetgirl

thanks to jd, max, Dawg et al who refuse point blank to stop giving me opportunities to do this.......

[B] HE STOOD ME UP!!! [/B]

(Thanks guys, it's still working!)

:D

...TechRepublic has called your bluff. Welcome to the party, ladies.

Gentlemen, brace for impact.

by gadgetgirl

sensible head on this week, don't you?!

(and I'm still trying to fathom out US sizes, don't think I've forgotten!)

:D

GG

by tig2

Very much the same as UK sizes. My guess from your self description? Check your PM. There are things that JD DOESN'T need to know...

by sleepin'dawg

Squeak up!!! Have to admire that; a preemptive surrender. I thought for sure you would have held out for the Midnight Trysts bit. (Note how brave I am, from long distance and anonymously)

[b]Dawg[/b] ]:)

by tig2

"Brace for impact" isn't just kidding!

This will be fun. Another place to wreak chaos and stuff!

Thanks, Trivia Geek. I owe you one... :)

by shellbot

I am deeply touched by your kind offer. Its fine gentlemen like yourself which elevates the standard of this site to the high levels we both expect and emulate.

We will try to be gentle, wont we Tig2?

by tig2

was quite what I was thinking.

"I will strive to deserve this fine honour bestowed upon me."

Uhhh Right. But I promise not to inflict LASTING damage! ]:)

by tig2

Chocolate chip cookies! :D

I do have to work on my email abilities. Just the other day I failed miserably in my effort to email Dawg a second cup of coffee. I have a horrid feeling that the cookie effort will be just as miserable.

I just haven't perfected the art of translating matter to binary...

by shellbot

i was thinking same thing..who needs dignity..i was looking forward to the midnight thing, but we got in without it..

*dang it*

by tig2

We could try to claim ignorance and still propose the midnight thing. Not altogether certain anyone would believe us though...

by shellbot

here look, once we're "in" we'll spread the idea around ..we can make it look like it was Dawg's idea..
we might get a few takers

by jaqui

whip number 27, with the metal beads in the falls. ]:)
dawg and neil really like that one. ;)

by tig2

Thanks Jaqui. I shall have to keep that tidbit handy.

I wonder if I take number 27 as a model and just increase the leather weight...

Alwasy be careful of what you tell a leatherworker. We might just do it for the heck of it! ]:)

Edited because there is no spell check and my keyboard needs to take up permanent residence in a LANDFILL!

by maecuff

Who is to say what is normal? I mean really..from what I've experienced so far in life, the people who are considered 'normal' are excruciatingly boring. Give me a weird habit, or a facial tic or a bizarre job or THEN you have people you can have a party with.

by sleepin'dawg

prepared to make all the ritual sacrifices but they said it wouldn't be necessary if I could keep you on your toes. Hence, the raising of all the urinals by 12 inches. :^0

[b]Dawg[/b] ]:)

by tig2

With devious minds! :)

Of course it was Dawg's idea. He was, after all the one who suggested it! And of course, he will pretend that he had nothing to do with it at all...

Edited to correct typs. Durn keyboard!

by jdclyde

I love women too! Maybe we could double date sometime? :0 :x

Or if you don't have a date, we could go out and pickup women together! ]:)

Dawg was the one that gave you this idea?!? Dawg, you are a GOD! B-) :D :^0

by jdclyde

but I am REAL good at picking out "unmentionables"! ]:) I was the one that bought most of the nice things my ex-wife is now wearing for the line going through the revolving door in her bedroom! :0

Still got the pics to prove it! ]:)

I could help! Of course, this will take some accurate measuring...... ;\
[i]
Anyone else thinking of Steve Martin getting his weight guessed? "Wow! Your really trying to be accurate!"

by tig2

But work with me people!

JD, you are SOOOO bad. I never double date- I have a partner- of the opposite sex.

Besides, i always feel so inferior around other women *sniff*

:)

by sleepin'dawg

for being a silver tongued devil and am always willing to help damsels in distress. It has always been my belief that if one can't be famous then one should at least be notorious and that was my chosen field in which to be notorious. Sad to say, there don't seem to be quite the abundance of distressed damsels that there used to be, so one must be prepared to help where one can.

As the old adage goes,"You'll win more flies with sugar than vinegar!!!" What the hell you'd want flies for, beats me.

As you may see grasshopper, there still exists much for you to learn. [b]LOL[/b] :^0

[b]Dawg[/b] ]:)

by tig2

You must dig deeper in order to fully understand what passeth for information in the feline mind. That said, one of my cats is convinced that she can catch sunbeams. Okay- isn't always intellegent thought...

There are days when I just love you guys!
