Hi

Isn't it rude to call a newby a Hoe? My grandmother (born in Nieuwdorp, btw) would have smacked me for that!

[daffodil]

hee hee hee. Gaat-ie? Where're you from? Coldfire?


Qadgop the Mercotan; <I>I like the name </I> LOL @ hoe! :D

[daffodil]

So I did something wrong with the html. :P

lemme figure this out.

[FarmerOak]

daffodil, you can get your tutorial on coding HERE (http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=50923).

Good luck. If you have any questions, Arnold Winkelreid is your man. He LOVES newbies and HATES curmudgeons.

[daffodil]

Thanks FarmerOak. :)

I'm glad I'm not a curmudgeon then.

*looking for Arnold Winkelreid*

[Coldfire]

For those that don't speak Dutch: Hoe is "how" in Dutch. :)

daffodil: I live in the fair city of Amsterdam, but I was born and raised in the south, near Tilburg. I see you're from our capital as well. Cool!

[TwistofFate]

Great, more Clog boys to post funny rants and build extra high curbs. (daffodil, its a reference to a drunken accident I had in your fair city in full view of many posters to this board.)

[daffodil]

TwistofFate; Hee hee. :) Where can I read about this?

Coldfire; I'm living in a houseboat on the Amstel. Whereabouts are you from? East-West-North-South-Centre?

[kabbes]

You mean that there's a whole river of Amstel? Geez, I really do have to get me to Amsterdam one of these days.

[daffodil]

HA HA HA LOL! Yes. No Heineken unfortunately.

And you'd be welcome. :)

[Albert Rose]

Hi, daffodil. Welcome. What's your favorite flower? Can you guess mine?

Oh, you might wanna check out this thread (http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=63825) to see what happened when I acted as a tour guide for an assorted group of furriners... it's a miracle the city still stands, I tell you!

[samclem]

Aw! Geez Guys. Get a greenhouse will you! :D

[daffodil]

Okay samclem; I'll bite. Why the greenhouse? :)

AlbertRose; errrrrr Magnolias?

Coldfire; cool! I might have met you.:) My boat lies near the Rembrandt tower [can't give you the # yet :)]

I've read the thread. LMAO! Only shame on the purse-snatching.:/

Maybe next time in A'dam huh?

Watch out, daffodil! Those who look for Arnold Winkelried might find him, as the Austrians found to their great dismay at Sempach.

[samclem]

daffy When two or more people(althought usually a male and a female) start a conversation which drifts into a general back-and-forth between just them and their interest, one quite often shouts "get a room!"

And yes, the names in the thread inspired me to yell "get a greenhouse!"

Now that you made me explain it, it falls flat. Welcome.

[Coldfire]

We do have a lot of greenhouses in the Netherlands.

daffodil, that's like a 5 minute walk! Too funny! :)

[Albert Rose]

Hey, you two get a riverboat!
:D

You're right, samclem, it isn't as funny anymore.
