Thank you. Smile I saw it somewhere and loved it so changed it on here. Then my oldest daughter told me, earlier today even, that she has that on her MySpace page. GMTA lol

edit- Oh, I get it. LOL Ok, it's back. Wink
edit/edit- If I could make up my mind whether it's checked or not. Big Grin
It's easier cause I keep forgetting to uncheck the box before posting.
Hi don't you guys and gals get any sleep, congrats on busting through the 1000th post at such speed, I see some of you are still up at 3am your time.

Just spent an hour catching up with nearly 150 mails from this thread, that's more like it.

I should have got up earlier but being an ugly sort of guy I need plenty of beauty sleep. Wink

Oh, the snow -fairy picture, ermmm, less said about that the better Eek

Sorry to confuse you, I must be getting rummy because I didn't mean you at all. I meant that I wasn't laying it on thick, hope you catch my drift.

Choo - Steamy? It's just your imagination. GAR means 'get a room', Miss M wants to take a fire hose to us. Don't know what she means.
Hello my lovelies, I'm back!! Big Grin

Happy New Year to one and all, and my humblest apologies for missing out on all the fun you were having (I assume you were, there's an awful lot of posts and views for this thread now). Have I missed anything I need to go and read? There's such a lot since I fell sick, I don't think I can go and trawl all through them!

Did ya miss me? Well, did ya, did ya? Razz
THERE you are! Just read the last page (if you can get thru Miss S & Ninth's goo-goo eyes) and you'll see we were wondering about you. Glad to see you're back, too bad you missed the fun last night. We are definitely the AAC!

So are you better now? How was your New Years?

If I stop answering in a little while it's cos I have to go out for about 1/2 hr but I'll be back, as Arnold would say Smile
Good mornin'. Smile

Choo, when you get several rooms, hotels will give a discounted rate, sometimes majorly discounted. Or is that not what you mean?
At the risk of mentioning the snow fairy again, I won't mention it because I might say too much. Big Grin

AAC, yep, we were tired Ninth. lol How are you?
I didn't realize we'd misbehaved so badly. Roll Eyes I don't remember if we said don't read it anywhere. uh-oh...

Miss M, if you'll put a space between that last dot and the 'h', your link will work. It's good with copy/paste now. Wink

Hi Pete! Glad to see you're feeling better and up 'n' at 'em. Bless your heart, it's the pits when it has to pass around the family like that. Don't overdo it now and be sure you still rest well! *mother hen* lol
Hi girls Cool It warms my heart that you are the first peeps to welcome me back Wink

Shirley, you been misbehavin' while I've been gone? Eek Never mind, you can come and 'mother' me anytime! Big Grin

Susanne, my New Year's was a low key event, as I'm sure you'll understand, but hey ho, that's how the cookie crumbles. I'm just glad to see my boy running around like his old self again :-)
I sure couldn't do that every day. lol
I'll be here off and on... yeah! No work today, so we can play? Big Grin

I think we should try to find something with at least one kitchenette so we can cook for ourselves. Miss M, you don't have to cook. Smile Whatcha think?

edit- Cookies? Did I hear cookies? Chicken noodle soup and cookies... that'll cure anything. lol
Hi Pete yes it's just they (the girls) used GAR in a curious way on page 57 and wading through last nights 150 odd mail notifications about this thread I overdosed and got word blind drunk.

You ought to peruse the last few pages before they wake up and get stuck in again.

I think I still have the snow fairy pic in my deleted mail folder, (so no need to send it to me again Ms M, I beg you not too Eek)

Believe it was Steve who posted the picture temporarily, not sure whether it was self portrait or not.
Hey Pete, it's on page 55 or 56 where Taz and Miss M posted at exactly the same time wondering where you are. lol

I think Ninth abbreviated it to GAR. It's new. Smile

Ninth, I missed about 3 being your limit. Oops, I'm sorry about that... not really buuuut...

Thread drunk? lol I guess you could say that. Smile

Ooooh, Taz is gonna LOVE that one Choo! Big Grin
You sick and twisted people asked for it so back by popular demand .this photo of Choo clearing a pathway through Piccadilly Circus with his trusty snow shovel!

Ah yes Choo I was trying not let the cat out of the bag but you did force my hand!

Welcome back Pete, yes it was page 55 that Miss M and I posted asking about you at the same time. Post was at 12:57 Am Auctiva time

No not this work of modern prose, I mean the thread about the tedious number of times we have to calm new users nerves when all thier listings evaporate when eBay do thier pull all listings anti-fraud check.

And by tedious I mean it could be avoided, by a warning from Auctiva before the event. I, like you folks will step in and happily calm the latest victim. Smile

edit - like to think the casual passer by will hunt down the snow fairy, this thread is full of memorable prose and situations.

So come all you casual viewers jump in if you dare, what you got to lose, sanity, maybe, joins us in the charge to the second millenia of replies Cool (even if it is to correct my smelling), there I go again Wink

Jeff what is the possibility of creating an advisory board with input from Active Community members? I believe a brainstorming session would greatly improve our ability to be pro-active members of the site.Possibly a private invitation type of forum where ideas and input could be freely exchanged back and forth without less seasoned input if you catch my drift?
I understand the cost and time implications involved in setting this up but I believe the overall benefit to the site would ultimately pay off in a better user experience and bottom line for Auctiva.

I had posted this in the thread about Auctiva and never got any input from Auctiva. (Or other Auctiva members for the most part)

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only sane one here

And just What makes you think you're sane Miss M? hmmm? Hangin' out here, doens't that make you INsane? Big Grin

All I've seen is the winds aren't suppose to be as high as first predicted. Still...
I hope you have power Ninth, and can tell us you're fairin' it all okay.
Looks like fresh cookies won't be delivered anytime soon. lol You can use your imagination... Wink
ummm, missed the edit and had to go see. We're over now and almost to 1200 posts.

I saw this too while seeing if Ninth and I made spectacles of ourselves again. Roll Eyes Nah! We did alright, Ninth.
Miss M, true that we don't know what any of us looks like... I know what I look like. lol I'd be willing to bet you don't have calves like the snow fairy any more than I do! Wouldn't that rule out it being one of us? Big Grin

edit- What's your altitude Ninth?
Hey dudes and dudettes (don't normally talk that way of course), Just popping in to let you know that how the big storm is progressing here. So far just a lot of wind and rain, water dribbling under my front door of course. Jeff and Co. is still getting hammered, being on the other side of the mountains. Our turn will begin tonite when the snow level drops to our elevation (only 4500ft here) and the front passes through. They are expecting 10 ft in the higher elevations but only 6 to 10 inches in Reno, which is still enough to mess things up here pretty good. So far the wind in the 'wind prone' areas in Reno have been 40 to 60 mph, much higher in the mountains (blizzard conditions, especially tonight).

Of course I am not going out in this stuff. I'd rather stay nice and cozy inside. Now, if I only had a nice plate of freshly baked cookies. Miss S, where are you when I need you? (Come on Miss M, I'm only talking about cookies here.) Big Grin

edit - Miss M we would never do that to you, your whacks are what started all this!
Hey dude (I bet you talk like that all the time) Smile
Yeah I guess BOTH of us started this with the whackin thread Big Grin

6-10 inches, sissy weather Wink

Seriously I know Reno isn't used to handling stuff like that. I lived in AZ for a time and when it rained (since it almost never did) NO one knew what to do and everything flooded, no sewer systems. It was actually kind of funny to me, people would act like the sky was falling because of a little rain.

So let us know how things are going tonite, and if you need us to come rescue you Smile
(We'll bring our whackin sticks of course) Wink

EDIT--And how could I forget?? Miss S will bring the cookies!
