• Oh, if you're the first person to send one, i will compose a poem in your honor. And recite it quietly here at home.
• Invitation away.
• sent
• *pelts smo with fizz-cup*
• Also sent. To BOTH your email adresses, ha ha, ha!
• I guess that means I don't get a poem. *snif*
• Hey, maybe there is no cabin poem. Maybe it's one of them metaphorical things. Like, maybe the cabin poem is the place inside each of us, created by our goodwill and teamwork.
• Yippeee! Thanks, oh brothers and sisters! Luv yall, I will write a poem for everyone who's posted up to now. Stay toooned.
• Hey, while you all are sending out those gmail invites, could you send one my way?
• No gmail? Where are you? Black Creek?
• One's on its way, Berek.
• By the way, does anyone know why gmail is still by invitation only? Surely, it's out of beta by now.
• It gives it a more exc;usive and elite feel? I dunno.
• The official reason is that it's supposed to cut down on spam, although i'm hanged if i know how....
• Song of Smo Hats off to our philosopher resident, Whose brainy posts are finely eloquent In debates erudite he gets my vote His name is two letters short of "smote". Smo, I just got my gmail account up and running. Thanks a bunch! This saved my bacon because i needed to mail a 15Mb file to a friend pronto, and the other mail services don't allow it.
• They opened it up a few months ago so that you can register from a cell/mobile phone. Worked for me, but I can understand why that wouldn't work for all.
• Should have posted this on tracicle's site & not the front fuckin' page.
• I demand a stronger, more virile poem!
• Ode to glamajamma Glamajamma - here since May Likes to post in his own way. 98 comments he has made He dives in, he does not wade.
• Thanks, Path! Does anyone have any suggestions, gripes, hints, complaints, brickbats, etc., about gmail that they'd like to share? Especially hints?
• I demand a stronger, more virile poem! Ode to Manly glamajamma Manly Glamajamma - here since May Likes to post in his own muscley way. 98 hairy comments he has made He dives in, he does not fuckin' wade.
• Berek, you should write a poem about Path to show your appreciation. (Or you could get banned)
• Oh Ode to Old Odiferous Path Path stands shortly tall He hardly notices peons at all While crunching superpowered blueberries And striding through the wall that leads inexorabley bloodily moodily bodily to the mall
• Surely, it's out of beta by now. Nope. Psssst, Berek, path's a she. You're so totally banned now.
• Thank you for the kind words, Storybored! Also, I didn't realize you could send such large attachments via Gmail. Good to know.
• You're welcome! Long may ye Philter!
• I've got a fuckin billion of these.
• The Koko Sonnet Koko's posts are a true delight Big of heart and small of bite. What are you doing in your little hut When you could be reading the Koko-nut?
• Reading that last one...doesn't quite do justice to teh Koko-nicity...what's missing damnit.... oh yes, "If you don't read teh Koko's posts you'll fall off your chair into the sticky stucky muddy thingies and you'll have to stomp around to get it off until you get arrested for stomping." That's better. *falls over exhausted*
• Psssst, Berek, path's a she. You're so totally banned now. You think that's bad? I just realized that i composed a poem to the wrong person! It turns out i auctully used J Smith's invitation! I'm in trouble now!
• I never called for banning Berek, so if all that LBB was directed at me, well, you missed. :) Odiferous? I smell of sandalwood and cimmamon, with a hint of musk, and with a nostalgic soupcon of blackberry. There are undertones of vanilla and narcissus, and a bit of rose in the dry off. But, gee, I'm so glad you were pleased with my attempt to help you out with the gmail invite. It might even have been a bit of an apology. Yes, I am old, by your standards, so thanks also for pointing that out. I'm probably the oldest MoFi member, but that's just how it is. I don't see it as good or bad. And, geeze, when I emailed you to apologize for something or other, you might have seen that my name was Patricia Huber. ADD on your part? So, enjoy the gmail account, but think of me everytime you use it. I know they're not gold bullion, but hey.
• So, J Smith is the one who goes to the mall, and smells
• YEEESSS, but does he smell the mall?!
• Only if he doesn't smoke.
• If he's smoking we should put him out! Excuse me one minute while I unzip.... Aim... FIRE
• I think he'd prefer to smell the mall.
• Yeah, like MCT I have a billion invites. If anyone wants one, bug me.
• Well, GramMa's gonna send all youz kids to bed early. Except the ones that go willingly. YOU stay up, and sit in the corners.
• This saved my bacon because i needed to mail a 15Mb file to a friend pronto, and the other mail services don't allow it. Did it transfer OK? The official maximum filesize is 10Mb but I've sent 12-13 ones sometimes.
• You can send bacon via gmail?! Wow!!!!
• Don't make me gmail yer bacon.
• I have a gmail account and I used to get lots of emails and google-chat from my friends on monkeyfilter and we'd laugh and play and dance and sing and be happy together and love one another but lately no-one has emailed me because they hate me and they are all DEMON-FELLATING NAZI JEW KILLERS WHO EAT POO but I'm totally "cool" about it.
• In fact, I don't WANT you to email me. I'm "busy" with my "life". I have lots of important stuff to do and my real world friends want to "hang" with me. SO THERE.
• I don't NEED your email. I'm FINE. Go hang out with your husband or girlfriend or mommy or whatever. I DON'T CARE.
• That's okay Q, I have imaginary friends too.
• Quid -- what happened to that chick you got the digits from, back when England won? Is that why you're "busy" with "life"? Wow. "Back when England won." That seems really strange to say.
• You can send bacon via gmail?! Wow!!!! How about "canadian bacon"?
• what happened to that chick you got the digits from ???
• Yeah, she doesn't remember either. (and she totally wasn't a she)
• I saw England win AND got a hot blonde girl's phone number. Later I ate some pickles. I make that quidnunc 3 - universe 0. So fuck YOU, Jesus. posted by the quidnunc kid at 09:07AM UTC on June 16, 2006 Don't tell me you forgot to call her back! Dude! Seriously! DUDE. WTF. *snickers at someone else's inability to get laid, to hide own shame*
• (I bet the bit about the pickles isn't even true, now.)
• phew, i thought he'd cut the woman's fingers off. again.
• Is "eating pickles" a euphemism for something of which I am not yet aware?
• Oh that, no she SMSed but I didn't chase it up. Bit late now, I guess.
• *sends Capt. Renault pickle wrapped in newspaper* "The quidnunc kid sleeps with the picklezessses."
• So, what we have to wait until next World Cup or something? What if I'm busy then? *pointedly waves flag*
• > no she SMSed but I didn't chase it up. you are forbidden to complain about your celibacy for, i dunno, TWO MONTHS!
• Pah! She probably wasn't interested anyways.
• I DON'T NEED YOUR WEAK, HUMAN "LOVE". I AM ABDUCTED AND PROBED REGULARLY BY ALIENS.
• You know David hates it when you call him that.
• Anal mind probe. You think that a superior race of beings could think of a better route.
• If it ain't broke . . .
• Good luck with that 15mb file; the largest I've been able to send is 6mb.
• Thanks for the poem, SB! Your secret identity remains safe with me! (For now ...) *clicks heels, salutes*
• Yes, yes, they suspect nothing, nothing, I say. *whirls and enters secret laboratory*
• That was very suspicious . . .
• *whispers into wristwatch*
• To the Monkeymobile!
• Monkeymobile? Is that a euphanism for Sinatra and the Boys?
• Just for that, you're sitting on the hump.
• What about when the hump starts complaining?
• Who's driving this thing? We passed my stop five minutes ago!!!!
• I think I'm getting car-sick.
• sitting on the hump? That's definently a euphamism for polishing the one eyed bishop! Yep, the bishop likes 'em shiny.
• *enjoys FizzCup(tm), is oblivious to crass monkeying around*
• nunia, if you're gonna get sick, use pete's pants.
• What's the mission again? I missed the briefing! Someone fill me in! Also ummm there's eight people in here and there's only um, six seat belts, and i don't got one so ummm.
• You can set on my lap!!!!
• Open yer pockets, petey: I'm gonna barf.
• Nunia, that's what ashtrays are for. Just give me a moment to clean out the change.
• Well, then who's gonna wreck pete's pants? To the Pantsmobile!
• *moves away from Berek*
• Yes, we're almost there. Pete! Quit trying to pick the Peeing Calvin sticker off the window. Almost there, kids. And you Berek, take that nickle out of your mouth before you swallo--dammit! Not another one! Hang on, it won't be long till we're there. Storybored, it is NOT your turn for the window. Let Nunia over there. NO! WE'RE NOT THERE YET!
• *kicks Granmas's seat*
• That was MY nickle, Gramma! Make him give it back!
• Oh. More mineral oil, coming in!
• Didn't want to derail another thread, or waste some FP space for this, but I am looking to get a GMail account. Can anyone hook me up with an invite? Emails in the profile.
• done
• Done.
• Thank you both!
• Dammit Loopy G, you threw everything off! Now we're completely lost. Where's the map? And give me another nickel!
• You cannot control the threadjack. You must let the threadjack control you. *sees blue VW bug and punches Berek in the shoulder*
• *Cries salty tears, rubs shoulder* Granma, kiss it an make it better!
• Yahoo to offer unlimited email storage Email Shark = Jumped?
• ...when Yahoo Mail started [capacity] was 200 gigabytes for all customers. Heh!
• I eschew Yahoo like the plague.
• I necromance this thread to beg for a GrandCentral invite. I've put my name on the waiting list, but I'm impatient -- I work both from office and home and would benefit immensely from this. Anybody got one? I'll name my next kid after you if you do.
• I don't know what it is, but if he's having one I want one too. Same reasons as the bearded one. kthx.
• For karlfistum, a splanashun
• I has changed my mind. However, if anyone has any spare binoculars, Land Rovers, replica firearms, Airfix model kits or hero-quality stormtrooper helmets they don't want, email in profile etc.
• *unzips*
• LOLZ.
• Define hero-quality
• Oh noes! Itz da singlarateez!
• GrandCentral coming your way, mct. I think. We'll see if it works. Yeah. PS I'm kicking your butt in the Sept. running challenge. So far. YEAH I SAID IT. TAKE THAT. (please don't hurt me)
• Wonderful, thanks! I'm training for the Memphis marathon. This'll hurt you more than it does me. ;)
• Goddamn,you weren't kidding.
• Works like a charm, Dr. frogs. I salute you heartily.
• Hero. Although I'd also settle for battle. Or any, really. Thanks in advance!
• *winks at mct for a future invite*
• Check your inbox!
• Wow. Thank you sir!!
• No prob MCT. Glad I could help. Working on a half marathon end of Oct., so ought to be logging 25+ miles a week or so until then. It's my wife's fault! No Nano thingy though, I use her run data for mileage and my wristwatch for time. So it's at least not lying about the distance. Heck we ought to get a MoFi run challenge going...
• That's what I'm sayin'. I won't be a man until I make quidnunc cry like an eight-year-old asthmatic girl. *flexes* *winces at hip pain* *hides love handles*
• Hip pain? Feh. Knee pain is where it's at. Today was good though, it's nice and cool out (60 F) so a four miler wasn't bad at all.
• Four? Dammit, I did four today. I'm not going to beat you if we do the same-- Um, I mean, knee pain? You should be careful. Don't want to overdo it, guy your age. Only get one pair, and all that... Tell you what, you should treat yourself. Take the weekend off.
• Hero. Although I'd also settle for battle. Or any, really. Thanks in advance! posted by kitfisto at 07:46AM UTC on September 11, 2007 Ah, that explains it. I don't speak neeeerd! *runs away
• No can do, mct. The wife will be angry at me if I slack off. 4 on Saturday, 12 on Sunday, that's the plan. Knees actually feel OK when I'm running at my normal stride. It's only when I run at my wife's pace that they hurt. (She's about a foot shorter than me.) Turns out I have shoes that are too wide for my feet though. Getting blisters in the instep. I guess I need to buy a 14 narrow rather than a plain ol' size 14.
• Narrow feet = teh gay.
• 14? Your wife's a very fortunate woman.
• 14, but narrow, remember...
• *wince*
