The totally off-topic thread

Couldn't care less! My name is on the Winner's podium enough times already. Let someone else have some glory.

I am just going to be happy when Movember is over. How did I get talked into this.

I haven't moved in over 32 years and I would be happy if I stay put for at least another 32 years.

Movember

What is Movember?

Movember - Changing the face of Men's Health
Movember (the month formally known as November) is a charity event held during November each year.

At the start of Movember guys register with a clean shaven face. The Movember participants known as Mo Bros then have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their moustache and along the way raise as much money and awareness about male health issues as possible.

Duh - I wondered why the reference to moving and what did it have to do with Movember.

I started with a Mo' inclusive beard so I simply gave my crown a #5 trim.

Hmmm.. not sure if this was a good idea ... my Mo's longer then my Hair!

Fortunately the last weekend of Movember has arrived, so this thing under my nose will be going very shortly.

Anyone heard from Yada Yada recently? Still active on FT?

Last posted on 7 November 2006 and last visited AFF morning on 27 November 2006. Very unusual!

Nope. Not a peep.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing yesterday ... Well, Monday morning is not long ago; maybe Peter hasn't had anything pertinent to post in the last three weeks.

 

[JohnK]

Same story on FT! Yada Yada last visited morning on 27 November 2006 but had posted once on 22 November 2006. Not a good indication with only a total of 63 posts on FT and previous post was 1 November 2006.

Holidays? Busy at work? His last few posts on AFF are interesting!

Anyone know why the 2 threads "Is the TSA selling ill-gotten goods? And do they do the same in oz?" and "Why airline CEO's should be paid motor mechanic's wages" were closed locked last night?

Too controversial? I was keen on having a post in both threads.

It appeared to me the OP was trying to promote the pirep forum with leadin excepts.

While perhaps only admin knows the true answer, this was exactly my thought as well.

Really! I did not even click on the pirep link so may have missed that angle. I just thought that they were interesting topics to dicuss and reading some of the posts a few different opinions and some heated debate. Maybe next time.

Since I missed posting on the threads, I think CEO's are way way way overpaid and TSA are a bunch of crooks. YMMV!

I think most of the posters posts have been pushing PiRep one way or another.

Pretty rude really. Not contributing to AFF but rather promoting a "competing" website through their posts.
