We had a little talk here at home... yes, there were a few tears involved too. Jester was a "little bit" sad (don't tell him I said that). Me being the IOFF Court Jester without being able to jest would turn him into nothing but a memory... and I guess he's aware of the fact that it would be a memory few people would try to keep alive. I tried to calm him down by saying that I could make a distribution list, so he could at least reach the IOFF members... but wasn't successful in making him understand what I was talking about. I became court jester before he was even born and that was the actual reason for his birth, but I've never mentioned it to him.
Jimmy: Turning my reply into Plain Text wasn't an accident. I've promised Jester to forward his suggestion. If he... 1: ... promises to not go out of line with the amount (he has been calm lately) 2: ... promises to do them in Plain Text Format to keep down the bandwidth 3: ... makes a signature that says something like "No LOL/LMAO-only replies please" ... can he then keep doing what he was born to do? That was his suggestion and my comments on that would be: I'm the "computing" one of us so I can fix no:2 and no:3 without him being able to go around them. Since it's fitting here, being a reason that ensures no:1, I might also break the latest news. Jester's time in front of the computer is about to be even more limited... since we're expecting ANOTHER addition to the family. Emelie isn't even one year old and will already have to start to live with the fact that she will have to share her father with someone else. So what do you say, Jimmy? Is Jester allowed to continue with his "Jest Of The Day But Only When He Can Find The Time And A Good Opportunity At The Same Time's", if the promises above are being kept? /Nick -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] För Jimmy D. Moore Skickat: den 3 januari 2007 19:53 Till: [email protected] Ämne: [VFB] Fun on the VFB Please note that I never said anything about not having fun on the VFB. A little subtle BANTER occasionally, is good for all of us. I refer to DonO's post a little while ago about me being the Chief Renegade VFB'er. I know he meant that in jest. He said he meant it to go OFF LIST, but I seriously doubt it. :-P It's when the banter gets to be almost non-stop, that it gets OLD to many of us on the VFB. So. . have fun, but keep it down a little. OK? There now, doesn't that make you feel better?
