… when you don’t even bother answering newbie questions but are amused at how six-month chiffsters do most of the answering as if they know all that much (hey, we have all been there at one time).

… when you can remember never seeing a political post on CF.

…when it actually WAS interesting to hear about the Ressikan flute.


You are down to your last few bucks, and, in between sending resumés out to most of the Western World, you take your message from one thread and post it here to announce that Its over 2000 for me[/quote]

Week, you still crack me up :laughing:

Loren: :slight_smile:

Thanks to all!

BTW, my official 2000th was over on the Irtrad making fun of Canuckians.

You know yer an old timer when …
you remember the Weekender gettin’ chewed out for making fun of Canadians.

“Will the circle, be unbroken, by and by, oh by and by…” etc.

Hey!

Congratulations, Lance. A mighty man, indeed. You can count me among your stalwarts.

Best wishes,
Jerry

Thanks, Jerry, my resumé is on the way.

Customized version: “Though I have worked for the last six years in a different profession, I am expanding my job search to fall back on my other skills, such as tweaking $7 musical instruments.”

Salary negotiable, nyuk.

  • you remember when there were far less than 1000 members
  • you remember when Mike Burke was a new whistlesmith
  • when Copelands were the most sought after whistles
  • you remember trying to come up with a reason to buy another whistle rather than just give in and buy it
  • you remember when everyone was pretty civil and the worst arguments were over whistles, not politics.
  • you remember considering gorilla breeding at home as a second income to afford more whistles :laughing:

I remember Patrick D’Arcy’s old Uilleann Pipe message board when he first made mention of the new UP board over here.
