This thread is the weirdest thing. It’s about nothing, and yet it has 50+ pages and 2.5K+ posts.

It’s the _Seinfeld_ of threads.

another hell here.

**Flamsterette\_X** Heh. I still read this thread. - or do I? -  
So, **Spoz** likes to keep his name, huh. I guess that won’t be a problem. I mean, we use the word ‘hot-dog’ too. And that’s silly enough. How many millions does he want?

Thanks for ICQing him. 🙂

**gum** : I have no idea how many millions **Spoz** wants if / when he wants to sell this concept. I’ll ask him in another offliner, and hope this one gets through. (my friend Corey remarked earlier tonight that he never got a message I sent him last night… I think my ICQ is messed :p)

It’s never a problem ICQ’ing him… I think it’s one of my favorite things to do. 😃

By the way, I just had big laughs and hilarious times changing my profile. I dare you all to go look. 😉

Congrats on this very odd thread, **NCB**. Cheers for giving us a place to discuss nothing for pages and pages on end.

“And now, the end is near,  
And so we face the final curtain.  
My friend, I’ll say it clear, I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain.  
We’ve lived a thread that’s full. We’ve traveled each and ev’ry highway,  
But more, much more than this, we did it my-- er, _our_ way.”

**ETF** , finish me out baby.

Thank you, you’ve been great! Vegas, you’re my kinda town! Good night!

An elderly bride of Port Jervis  
Was quite understandably nervis  
Since her apple-cheeked groom  
With three wives in the tomb  
Kept insuring her during the servis

If **Angua** has some Dope to go to, I’ll bet it takes a day or two for her to return. Have fun, over there.

**NCB**?

So there you go. He wants to know who his buyer is (a very good sound policy, I think) before he just hands it over.

I’m not exactly a foxy gal, although I had someone who would claim that I was attractive and lovely. Now that relationship’s all gone to smash.
