Sorry for the delay getting back in here, I only just finshed working my way through the box of dolls that mysteriously appeared on my doorstep. Strange how they all seemed to have a surprised look on their faces - is that normal does anyone know?

Hope you all had a good start to the new year, I know I have! Big Grin

Happy new Year all!

HA Pete--as if you didn't know Wink (just kidding)
Well it looks like I'm not the only one that's been MIA...working my lil' fingers to the bone Frown and I'm still not rich... Roll Eyes

But I know what Choo is up to-he's planning another attack on my house with the killer tomatoes Eek

Too funny - there are a couple more recent votes on this thread. Too bad we haven't seen Miss S and the infamous Ninth Wave lately ... Wonder what they're up too
Hi 7658jds, welcome to "The Epic Thread", we could do with some more mischief makers here.

Beware, these tomatoes are well seasoned veterans, nothing green about them, especially the overipe ones, who are particularly messy and nasty Big Grin

Please note that I did say "tomatoes" and not "tomato" so the next time you leave your horizontal cabinet Ms F and the sky darkens it won't be a UFO or a rain cloud but a UKO - an Unfried Ketchup Object.

Current postion, drifting across the Atlantic after whetting their appetites on tourists over here.

Should be there in a few days, they know what you look like as I have programmed them with your data gleaned from this thread . . . Razz

Oh and . . . Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
Hey everybody,

WOW been trying to get used to the new My Ebay page they forced on us here...slow ugly waste of spaceFrown
You have to customize it to get it to even resemble something you can work with. Check it out, Choo see what you think. Sign into Ebay.com. I've actually been working through Ebay Ca, they haven't messed with that one yet. SIGH

So anyway, I'll have to worry about the tomato attack later (but I've got my burgers ready & waiting) Big Grin Big Grin
Oh well makes a change for the US greedbayers to get a downgrade thrust on them before everyone else.

I see the same old My greedbay page and editor via .co.uk or .com so perhaps we are spared for a while Roll Eyes

Nevermind takes your mind off of constructive things like selling items Wink

Not sure when I will list again on greedbay as my sales are ramping up well on Specialist Auctions with minimal fees, a lot of buyers arrive via Google searches.

And of course Auctiva eCommerce isn't available here yet Frown
Yikes, our thread is getting buried again...thought I'd better stop in & say hello Smile

Glad your sales are doing well Choo. I keep saying I'm gonna stop selling here but I always end up with so much inventory (can't resist a bargain) I pretty much HAVE to sell here if only to free up some space.

So what's new? Still planning the attack of the killer tomatoes? Eek Eek Eek

Oh, and can't forget these... Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Razz
Yep can't leave the lounge for 5 minutes (or was it days) without this thread slipping down the charts, still top of the league for replies and views though Cool

I thought the killer toms had ketchuped with you and feasted well seeing as I have not heard from you lately.

Perhaps they don't like American snacks Razz

Well sales are good here as fixed price listings, but unfortunately auction sales are not feasible yet (need more buyers), still come on Auctiva eCommerce, don't want to have to send my other items to greedbay, yuk, Eek

Hey Everyone is getting their site up and running,but I still do not have a invite. I have been waiting sent I had my beta back in November. I guess you had to be a powerseller to get on auctiva ecommerce. and don't tell me about how your not a powerseller cause all I see is big time sellers. So good bye to you all and I hope you have good luck. I will keep my ebay site and go some place else to start my off ebay site.
Hi, what on earth is a sensible posting doing on this thread Eek

Actually I will tell you I was not a powerseller on greedbay at the time of getting an invite but quite a regular poster and advocate of Auctiva Smile

But anyway I have to wait until Auctiva eCommerce becomes available here in the UK.

End of sensible transmission, we now return to the nonsense that this thread is based on.

The FangMother Vs the killer tomatoes, the story so far, errrmm .... oh so what Roll Eyes

Just as well my coffin is 'connected', in other words they ain't appy Razz

P.S. Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
You do swear a lot don't you what is this thread coming too !

Got your mail via greedbay only, with its sensored sender e-mail address, mine was probably similarly corrupted.

Anyway, just replied via greedbay, if you don't receive it please use the 'ask seller a question' on any of my listings on Specialist Auctions.

Same seller id as on greedbay Cool

couldn't find you on Specialist Auctions...no matter.


"No matter" - Wash your mouth out you unwashed heathen Eek, I feel the urge to grow some more tomatoes Mad

It a future nemesis of the dark one, not sure that if I had put my e-mail address in full on the greedbay contact member mail it would have got through hence splitting it up. Anyway I thought there was a private message facility on here, it's mentioned when you add someone to your buddies list but I could not find how to actually do it Confused
7658jds,

There are still plenty of burgers left in my freezer (the freezer of doom)
.....Choo remembers what I've kept in there HA!

But if he's going to start growing even MORE killer tomatoes, then we'll all just have to have a giant BBQ Smile

So you left the Dark Side huh? Where did ya go to? I have to stay on the dark side, it's the only thing that works for me Smile

EDIT - BTW, there's another vote for the long gone ninth wave Eek
quote:
Are you going to tell him the secret ingredient of your burgers or will you leave that to the pathologist

Oh now c'mon Choo....you know I never used them as ingredients (shudder) Eek or did I???
And as far as thread homework even I don't remember how far back this was Big Grin We've been rambling on for a LONG time Big Grin

7658jds, when you get your store up, be sure to enclose a link Smile

Please remember this was a real event Eek unlike most of this thread Big Grin

7658jds you definitely do not want one of those burgers! They are RAT burgers. Almost forgot about that one Choo and MissM! Hope everything is going well for everybody. I barely have time to get on here anyore. Way to busy. I will try to pop in occasionally. It has been over a year since I sold anything online Frown
Hi guys!

WinkHA, just when you thought you were rid of me here I am Smile Tell the truth you missed me Smile

I spent the last couple of weeks with an abscessed tooth, AND a reaction to my antibiotics...almost ended up in the hospital. I spend enough time there, NO WAY do I want to be there as a patient Eek I think I'm ok now as far as that goes but I think I'm starting to get the flu that's going around. *Sigh* It never ends...I'm so old and decrepit I'm falling apart Big Grin Big Grin

Hi Taz, good to see ya. What are you so busy with? Too many jobs,like me?? Smile Choo, do you work or are you independently wealthy Roll Eyes Roll Eyes (THAT calls for rolling eyes Big Grin Razz )

Well, gonna take some aspirin & crawl into my coffin (Pls don't nail the lid shut again Choo, it's hell on my fingernails trying to get out) Razz
quote:
*Sigh* It never ends...I'm so old and decrepit I'm falling apart


Aaah, poor ol' fang, don't fret as you get older you have less time to wait for the next part to fall off. Big Grin

Oh BTW it does end Razz

A few tips :-
1) try not to fall asleep in the garden in case you get dug in to the flower bed
2) be careful not to fall into the bin when putting it out for collection
3) check the contents of the cleaner after using it for missing parts
4) sneeze carefully to catch any loose parts

Do I work, very good question, although curious, why do you ask ? Smile
CHOO!!!!!!!!

For God's sake, what happened to ya?????????

A number of reasons come to mind.....

1. Your senility finally got the best of you and your wife locked you away somewhere

2. I did a REALLY good job of nailing your coffin lid shut the last time I did it

3. The 'enforcers' were finally able to get to you (yeah, and you wanted to stay with them...ewwww Big Grin )

4. Your KT (killer tomato) had YOU for lunch

5. or (DUH) without your brain you are .... ??

I don't even know what to say


Yep, I know the problem, still, gibbering away on here was always enjoyable, sorry is enjoyable Roll Eyes

I suppose it is a knock on effect from selling on greedbay becoming such a turn-off, oh well, I'll no doubt pop-in in now and again to give the ol'fangmother a good lid nailing Wink Big Grin

oh and a Roll Eyes for the road !!
quote:
I thrive on a challenge

What exactly does THAT mean? Big Grin
Very funny .. why am I always getting picked on Roll Eyes

Anyway, having 2 jobs was NOT greedy...They almost closed my hospital last year so I got a 2nd job just in case (see, you are getting senile, you forgot about that..lol Big Grin) Our economy here is so bad right now I probably should have stayed but life's too short Smile (And I'm too lazy..just kidding) So now I have more time to go swimming and riding.

I wish we were gonna have a hot summer, can't tell yet, summer's barely here. Only 2 hot days so far. Typical Chicago weather. I'll be wearing a jacket to work tomorrow Frown

Stop over for a visit Choo, I'LL teach you how to swim
I don't think teaching me to swim will be helped by concrete armbands, anyway my swimming style is already akin to the ability of house brick.

Economy here would be joke here too if it wasn't so real, certainly reduced my income some what but on the positive side I think I can ride it out without any real grief, I hope !

Yes, life is too short to dwell on it and there are always cheaper ways to enjoy oneself, this being one of them Razz

I wonder how many read this tripe and think Roll Eyes "grow up you daft perishers" to them I say, eerrrm, ummm, oh, who cares, as you say life is too short, certainly to be sensible all the time Big Grin

edit - page 160, onwards and tripewards Big Grin

Looks like the epic thread is finally coming to an end Frown Almost a year & 1/2 tho, we did good Smile

No the thread that would not die CANNOT die just yet. What would all the poor people who have been following this thread do? I don't think the thread is ready to "jump the shark" just yet!I am sure you know what that quote refers to Miss M, poor Choo on the other hand may be a bit lost on it. Yes I still get updates emailed to me on the thread!
Unfortunately eBay did a good job of killing itself for me so I no longer am listing anything. I still occasionally go to local auctions and do a yard sale or set up at the flea market occasionally. But my full time J.O.B keeps me pretty busy and the better half keeps me occupied when I am not working. Yup ,almost 2 years together now. Starting to think seriously about the M word LOL.
Hi Taz it's GREAT to see ya Smile
Thought you disappeared for good, like a couple others we know...
So, the M word huh?? Uh-oh..I thought you were a confirmed bachelor Wink
Whatever the case, I'm SO very glad for you. I volunteer Choo to be best man and I'll be a bridesmaid..LOL! Just let us know when & where.

I know all about the JOBS and being busy...I just did a 3 day weekend, 12 hours each day & I'm exhausted! At least the double time for Memorial Day will make me feel better Big Grin

Don't be such a stranger...I could use somebody to help me pick on Choo (he loves it) Big Grin
quote:
Can we get back to business of being idiots now please?


Is that venture profitable and do you have to pay any #@%^&!!! fees to participate? Big Grin

Want the realllly bad news? I now have to pay to assist members in the Forum. Eek I don't list to eBay anymore, but have to pay to help with templates. Oh well....who said no good deed ever goes unpunished....got that one right.

Danno
Danno...welcome, welcome! I don't think you've ever posted here before have you? (You missed out on alot Smile )

Choo is right (for once) Roll Eyes.. --sometimes you just have to let go and get silly. Heck we've been at this for a year & a half. Even with everyone else gone...

BTW I haven't been here lately because I've been very busy trying to find big enough silver nails to keep Choo's coffin lid shut. He keeps getting out Big Grin

Anyway, join in anytime Smile We need some new blood

EDIT----ok wait...what do you mean you have to PAY to help with templates? That doesn't sound right Confused

OK, where IS everybody??????????

Don't make me put up that tumbleweed picture again ... gotta keep my images down Roll Eyes

Choo, have you been learning how to swim? Were you going to surprise me??
Hey, I picked my first red tomato today, the only one..the rest are all green. But soon the KILLER tomato will be ready for ya Choo Eek It's alrady got little tiny fangs growing in Wink
I'd be more surprised than you if I was learning to swim, mind you, just think of the arm muscles I'd develop if I managed it with those concrete arm bands you so thoughtfully sent me Roll Eyes

Meanwhile you are the one who has to worry about the killer tomato, they strike to ripen. They suck blood to turn red, looks like you are going to have competition in the fangs department if it gets loose without snacking on you first Big Grin
