...Gary has jumped past me by...

I prefer "Leaped" ... much more eloquent and descriptive of my cat like movements. As in "Gary leaps over tall buildings".

How about bounded? Surged, soared, sailed over?

And now I have to go to work.

Harrumph.

mmmmhhh ... no just Leaps ... it reinforces that in spite of my soaring abilities, I am still a humble guy, just another people.

..and I wake up to find what?...

what ??

Who?

Who's What ?

What's on First.

 

[sm4him]

I don't know.

Gary was a posting FIEND last night/this morning! I don't know what he was smoking, but man, he must have been setting his keyboard on fire.

I'm trying to close the gap again between me and Charlie before I head to work. Where I'll probably just doze off and drool on my desk.

Moi ... a posting fiend ... I humbly submit to the God of Postwhoring that I am in fourth ... hell, they don't even make a medal or metal for fourth place.

And I have to say - yes, this thread is filled with a bunch of non-photo stuff ...well, except for Gary's flurry last night that had him passing me like I was standing still...which I was...or rather, lying still...I digress...

...where was I? Oh yeah. There's bad jokes and football and postwhoring (new words!) and it seems quite silly, but who doesn't need a little silliness in their lives?

A sense of community doesn't always come from the seriousness of our intended purpose in joining a photo forum. We are getting to know each other, having fun, and from now on, all here will simply have to say "Leaderboard" and we'll all smile and nod in recognition and feel the warm fuzzy solidarity of shared memories of silliness. And that's a nice thing.

Now back to the postwhoring, people!

You running for an elected office?

Yeah, but at the rate you were going last night, you'd be in first place within two days if you kept up the pace. But I'd be careful, you might have a blowout on the keyboard. I've already had to replace mine, twice, during all this postwhoring. I bought six extra keyboards though, so I should be good--just pull into the pit, change out boards and roar off again.

Spoiler: KEYBOARD TRUTH

I haven't really had to replace any keyboards this month. But don't tell.

 

[Gary A.]

What do you call an exploding monkey?

Spoiler: Answer

A baboom!

much much better ... easier to ignore.

I think my crew is sleeping. Man, I'm wearing off the lettering just to stay even.

 

[Gary A.]

Good morning, everyone!

Top 'o the morning. The coffee smells ... refreshing.

The coffee at my office smells like feet.

That is disgusting. I ground mine, no bitter aftertaste whatsoever. No cream ... no sugar ... just pure coffee.

 

[Gary A.]

Wow. Despite my efforts to at least post something last night when I got home, Charlie has opened a rather large lead now.

He is the marathon man.

so are you

LOL ... nah, I'm a sprinter ... no attention span for the long haul.

 

[Gary A.]

Wow ... I am here finally ... I caught up with all you early East Coast risers. There is a theory that had Europeans landed on the West Coast instead of the East Coast that there wouldn't had been any manifest destiny.

 

[sm4him]

Too tired to actually be productive anyway

you should try going to bed earlier

I should.

I really, really should.

But Charlie had already cashed in his chips for the night, so I just couldn't resist the opportunity to try to catch up a little.
That plan may backfire on me though, because I may crash and burn by about 6 p.m. tonight.

 

[snowbear]

AH, you'll pass me, I'm sure.

 

[sm4him]

AH, you'll pass me, I'm sure.

OH NO, Charlie's back!!! And I was just thinking I should stop and do some actual work! But now…I gotta at least hold my ground!
