Happy Birthday, RJS102254 , jac070
RJS if I read this correctly you have been playing with a full deck for a year and now have a new card. Welcome to the Year of the Joker.
Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Wonder if Snaxx is back home yet? And why didn't he tell us he was going to Chicago? Well, maybe he did and I missed it. I do hope he had a good trip and is having a great birthday.
Birthday wishes to the other poster of many ####'s as well, whom I hope will eventually see we remembered him. I haven't checked the member list to see if PCmaxey, our official unofficial birthday list person is registered here either.

I got the info from his post so let's give him credit, having search again is great.kayrharris wrote: I haven't checked the member list to see if PCmaxey, our official unofficial birthday list person is registered here either.

AFAIK, I only emailed lily, who was in touch with everyone else. The previous weekend I finally met SSS in Atlanta (he was my PAF on WWTBAM) where I took him out to dinner then we went to the Monday Night Football game together; he is also a NY Giants fan. I swung by New Orleans for just a day before heading to Chicago.

I was just giving you a hard time, although we are nosy and demanding around here! I tried to insert an emoticon, but I couldn't get it where I wanted it, so I just gave up.
Thanks for the explanation, though, although you were just 90 miles from me when you were in Atlanta......I'll forgive you this time.

RJS is with us in the BBBL (although that's dismissed for the winter), so we know where he is. I did drop him the link for the new Bored a while back, so if he wants to drop by, he will.MarleysGh0st wrote:Has RJS found his way here? I don't see his handle on the Memberlist.
I'm still wondering where Spock is. He sent me an email over a week ago wondering where we were, and I sent him the link.... but he's still nowhere to be found...

Are we googleable? Maybe he'll google himself.kayrharris wrote:Very good! I'm still a bit distressed about losing contact with Etaoin. I can't find where he registered on any of the other sites we looked into before we settled on this one, so we may may have lost him for good.

I believe the board administrator took proactive steps to make this bored not show up in Google searches. Now that things have settled down a bit, we might want to reconsider that decision, so both our lost sheep and potential new members might be able to find us.SportsFan68 wrote:Are we googleable?

Nope, I was successfully able to bring up this Bored by entering my handle into Google a few days ago....TheConfessor wrote:I believe the board administrator took proactive steps to make this bored not show up in Google searches.

now that one of his sons works for Jeopardy! as a researcher, he doesn't want to risk vicariously disqualifying any BBs from being potential contestants.

Outstanding! (And a reasonable explanation for keeping his distance, even if we do miss him. But is that once-removed connection weighty enough for disqualification, i.e., just because we know somebody who has a relative working for the show?)
Is this the son who was the youngest contestant on WWTBAM, back in prime time?
