Oh, how much of a “kid” are you? (Not much I’m guessing, after 10 years.)\* Because I currently like Justin Bieber I’m pretty sure I’m known as the board pedophile, though technically I’m the board ephebophile. (According to one online source I found, however, an ephebophile is a pedophile with a thesaurus. LOLOL!) \*Seriously though. What was the thread that pushed you over the edge that you HAD to contribute to? And don’t worry, I’m turned off by you solely based on your “SHOES-OFF” policy. Hmmph, what a police state! ---

I hope that’s not too high and mighty for you. 😉 We have something in common: a serious lack of car payments…! My cars are just as old if not older than yours. The John Deere is cool! I cheaped out & got a Craftsman mower myself. Money: its that stuff I spend on Other people. (lol) ---

Suffice it to say, I graduated college 20 years ago this month. I had been meaning to join for quite some time, I just never got around to it. But it did have something to do with [post=14491123]this post by **Derleth** [/post]. It’s just eloquent and purely poetic and true. 😃 > [@Count\_Blucher](#): > > We have something in common: a serious lack of car payments…! My cars are just as old if not older than yours. The John Deere is cool! I cheaped out & got a Craftsman mower myself. Money: its that stuff I spend on Other people. (lol) Oh, I’m still making payments. I just got the pickup about 2 1/2 years ago and still have 4 payments left and the car is a 2007 and I have about 2 1/2 years to go on it. The mower is paid for though. 😃 ---

> [@Hal\_Briston](#): > > \ > > Why yes…yes I did. My point was, there was no TP in the Doomsday Device of Doom closet, so I kinda had to improvise, and… haha, funny story, you know that sheet of paper that was keeping the two electrodes (this is so embarrassing) in the self-destruct mechanism from touching, and, well… BYE!
