For those of you that recall the day which started your life's downfall, I commend you.

For those who don't, I'll jog your memory.
It's been 12 months since I joined the fun and games here at TR, and I congratulate you all for surviving this long.

Thank you all and congratulations again. I'm looking forward to another fun-filled year, are you?

;)

You do plan on continuing the fight against spam for us all, bringing us joy with your bubbly outlook on....

:p

It's felt like such a long, yet at the same time short, period of time.

It feels like you have been with us forever (or maybe you make time drag...)

yet looking at me, in a few months I will have been here for three years (put it in my calendar, cause i forgot me last two TR anniversaries :( ) and it still feels like only yesterday I joined the community.

here is to a good past year, and to a better new one (that means no dieing!)

A deal.

It is definitely good to have a fellow Victorian around. I was actually surprised at how many Australians there are here on TR, surprised and humbled.

Good past year. *cheers* [_]3
And many more to come [_]3

by nexs

Might be, one day, a good idea to have an Australian TR get-together/shindig. Just like the Louisville but not.

...as I sit here with my morning [_]3 (as I do every morning), I couldn't imagine my morning without my daily dose of TR and all its members (including you ;) ) Here's to another good year <:o) and hopefully many more to come.

My morning [_]3
Involves about 3 [_]3 's and there's even more now I've got my Swag mug... or should I say, 'bucket'!

Let's raise a coffee to TR and it's members (including you ;) )

by purpleskys

i don't use mine for coffee right now (shhh don't tell Soni)...I was given a new NSCC mug from my core instructor at the end of the year for all the help I gave other students when they were having trouble. And yes, mugs up to all our fine TR peers :)

careful there.

next thing you will be insulting GG, and that just not a good idea.
mae comes out swinging with the shovel automatically then. ;)

by jaqui

hmm, lets see, TR just tuned 11.
means the double digits are still new for TR itself :p

ohh lookie, only 2 months after TR started and there I am, a member. :D

maybe a special avatar for "years of attendance" or something....

There's many who joined back in 1999/2000 that aren't on the boards anymore so those who stuck it out, ought to get some bling...

by cg it

TR ought to have give you guys something for being on their site for so long [bling and swag don't count]...

by jaqui

the time here is part of why so many of us have "odd" ways of communicating with each other.
we been doing it for so long it's a shorthand now. :D

by jaqui

you joined on my baby brother's birthday.
hope it doesn't mean yo going to be like him.

by jaqui

they must have made them bigger than the one I got.
it only held 2 cups [ 8 oz cups ] worth.

my mug is far larger.
it holds an entire 10 cup pot [ that's 80 ounces ] as one fill up of coffee.
and keeps it hot for 4 hours. :D

those who know me call an ambulance if I turn down coffee, ever. ~lol~

To computers and kill them in the process.

Sure you say it was an accident now but I don't believe that you where thinking that at the time. :^0

i would just love to have something like this http://www.flickr.com/photos/54767877@N00/154001895/

I had, not long ago, a user who couldn't log on.
Turns out that Coffee in a keyboard prevents certain keys from connecting to the circuit board.

Pros:
-Keyboard smells deliciously like coffee

Cons:
-Two keys don't work.

Summary:
Good compromise, I think.

by nexs

Got a Family Guy mug that holds maybe 1.5 times what the TR mug can handle. But, at the moment, It's acting as my flag stand.

the brass block on the right side of the mug is a normal sized zippo lighter. :D

just to put the mug into scale.

I haven't seen or heard from Deadly Ernest recently... And I'm not sure who else there is...

by nicknielsen

Ernest was having medical issues, but I don't know for sure. I'm hoping he's just busy with work.

by jaqui

a thermal travel mug, from 7-11 actually.
:D

same cost to fill as their largest coffee cup is to get.

1 mug of coffee = 1 pot of coffee.
