Is everyone on holiday or just slacking off?

Eva rarely contributes anymore and I miss her. JPB, Rocky - very infrequent, and we haven't heard hide nor hair from Marty Barker in ages. Cyclo, Georgeob1, Roxxx... are you all on threads I've thumbed down? WHERE IS EVERYBODY?

In answer to the question in the thread title: these people are all slackers, especially Cyclo who was too lazy to post while on his honeymoon.

this place does need a (naked ? INDEEDEE !!! who's first ? ) wake up call

just to straighten things out : i used to be "hamburger " - so have been around here for a while . somehow couldn't get my old identy back .

anyway ... i think we used to be a much easier going bunch imo .

can't remember who called me on the carpet - doesn't really matter - perhaps should have ignored it and posted some emoticons .

still wondering if the u.s. presedential election is being fought over and over again here . would that be a suitable topic , i wonder ?

for a canuck it might be futile to start it - comments anyone ?

will try to start some new topics later - going for a long walk first .

perhaps we might meet under this topic again and state any topics started or that we find particularly interesting ???

i'll put this under my FAVOURITES for easy reference .
g' day or g' nite to everyone - whichever it is .
hope to see ya later !

@Cycloptichorn,

Where'd you go in Hawaii? And what'd you do, besides the obvious?

Did you go to a luau? Drive to the north coast to watch the surfers (on the Big Island)? Drink a Mai Tai or other fancy drink? Try kava at the Kava Hut? Go on a dinner cruise? Swim with the dolphins? Try paragliding? Buy me anything? What?

@hamburgboy,

Hamburger! Welcome back! I hope you are doing okay. Maybe you and I can discuss Arctic territorial disputes again. I need to update my Arctic thread.

That's certainly the way I look at it.

It would be terrible if you and Gus were off at the same time.

I find that highly suspicious. I suspect a tryst. Wink

@wandeljw,

wj :
pretty slow on the arctic circuit right now ; i believe - just like on a2k - the politicians are in their hammocks !
ontario has been rather cool so far - but it's warm up in the yukon territory !

generally speaking , the weather has been somewhat topsy-turvy in canada - farmers' fields are either water-logged (in the east) or parched (in the west) .
you better do something about that pronto !

o ye , and the stockmarket is still jittery .
we canadians blame ALL our problems on the american president/government - whatever their political leanings are - can't you hear your ears hum ?
take care .

@hamburgboy,

Oy, I'm posting just because I like you, HMBGR (can't call you 'boy' cuz you're older than me)... I like your posts and your attitude. And you can come into any one of my threads and derail it anytime - in fact, I welcome it Smile

Feel free... I am inclusive of any and everything so help yourself!

That's why he's known to me as "Mr. H". Wink

And, yes, anyone feel free to derail my topics (should I ever happen to create any) should the opportunity arrive. Smile

@Reyn,

I thought your official job title here was "Odd News Reporter".

@Reyn,

I always enjoyed your topics, Reyn, because everyone could play.

I hate that the picture connection died as well as the Where Am I thread, because they were challenging. The picture connection was rather like a word game only with pictures.

Like Eva, I mostly read except for WA2K radio. I had truly hoped that folks from around the world would participate on that thread.

@Green Witch,

Thanks GW and Letty.

I rarely report any odd news anymore. My most recent one HERE wasn't much of a success. It's my first one in a long, long time. So, there's a job open if someone wants it. Wink

I'm happier here when I'm just yakking with other folks and making a community of it.

oh it is nice to know I am not the odd ball out for once.

I too read alot, but do not feel the desire , nor see the opportunity to contribute much.

I hate, and I mean absolutely hate a few of the ' new' ( to me at least) posters we have. Pamela anyone?

and that just makes everything feel sour.
