jceman 1 #5 September 18, 2005 Quoteonly 3 for me Oh did I mention I did my 500th Come on, folk! You've been around here long enough to know that the form is Humps:Jumps:Beer. Given your narrative, I'd dare say yours should read "1(at least!):3:1".. Of course, the first number may be replaced with something other than Humps as long as you explain what the number signifies. Given all that, my numbers are: 5 (months since our last jump):1:0. A very hot, almost windless, yet pleasent day at Deland. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dougiefresh 0 #13 September 18, 2005 I wish:7:90 Seven awesome jumps on saturday. Brought 90 first-timers to SDC for the Madcity Leapfest. Yes, the party was awesome, as usual. Madcity and SDC rock.Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. --Douglas Adams Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
