I wish a few would.
Congratulations SpinyNorma 
Thank you! Dangerosa and the others were right; it is a Python reference. It’s a sketch that has always amused me disproportionately. In real life, I’m not a giant hedgehog, particularly spiny, nor even named Norma so, of course, this struck me as the perfect screen name. I’m that way.
Cite?
If it helps any, I did post a couple of times on the old FAOL version of the board.
Since I know it’s frowned up to post several times in a row, I’ll reply to a couple of other posters in this one.
No, I don’t know Dinsdale in real life. I do wander about the city yelling his name but he never answers.
Cake AND pie is wonderful compromise. In the interest of being accomodating, I am also willing to accept cheesecake and brownies. And huge heaping piles of cash.
As to impressing you with my ability to be quiet for so long, I can offer you a long list of people who will attest that I’ve more than made up for that in real life. The fact that they roll their eyes, while rude, does not take away from their sincerity.
0.00 posts per day. Nine years.
That’s awesome.
Come on SpinyNorma- we have worked it out- you have been in the slammer since 1999 for punching out parking meters! Welcome to the outside world
She’s coming out of her, um… well, hedgehog’s don’t have shells, so I don’t know what she’s coming out of. But she’s still more than two dozen posts short of 0.01 per day, by my math.
Who ratted me out? Was it those dirty screws? Days will be rued! (As soon as my parole period is up.)

Sometimes you just have to take things on faith, cite unseen.
Of course we all realise there could be another one better- a member since 1999 who won’t post. And like a ducks quack, we will never know why- cause they won’t post.
What ever happened to Spiny Norman, anyway?
But if they did, would that post echo?
Miss Norma, we’re going to like you around here.
We accept her! We accept her! One of us! One of us! Gooble Gobble! One of us!
Is the squid necessary for first time posters?
I’m embarrased :eek: . Some could learn a lot from that kind of reservation in ones comments.
Ah yes, but now that the dam has been broken we are getting a flood. ** Spiny Norma **has 11 whole posts already!
LET’S ALL SCREAM A HUGE WELCOME for Spiny Norma !!!
Wow—After 9 years keeping us waiting, we get 4 quick answers in this thread, and each one is a gem.
welcome aboard, Spiny. We didn’t know what we were missing…
(but may I point out that we have not yet seen any kitty pics…And if you don’t have a kitty, please get one, quick. )
Geez, she’s up to 11 posts. Double digits. Now we’ll never shut her up. :rolleyes:
Yeah, pipe down SpinyNorma! Save some hamsters for the rest of us.
