A very entertaining idea! Hours of fun for those of us who need more reason to play on the net instead of doing useful work!
Sorting by location revealed that there are 13 of us who put "Toronto" first in our location listing. (There are 14, but 2 of them are me.) |

Very interesting indeed.
Sorting by 'date registered' reveals a certain Craig Antill was here first. Sorting by the 'number of posts' shows us Liz is miles ahead of us. How are we ever going to catch her? And he, listen to this. Even God is a member. According to His profile (yes, even God has a profile, the one we are shaped after) He lives in the seventh layer of heaven and His interest is 'looking down on His creation'. Gerard. |

She's the one who keeps Schroedinger's Cat company.
Funny though, I never understood what Schroedinger's aim was, to demonstrate the non-intuitive nature of quantum mechanics, or just to kill cats. Gerard. |

The new version of Schroedinger's Cat is the Cosmic Umpire (more PC than killing cats I guess) - they're not balls or strikes until He calls them. As for Scroedinger, I wonder how he got the cat in the box to begin with. Mine always head for Dimension X when the carriers come out.
Lulu is the star of a song from the 1950s titled "Lulu's Back In Town." |

Geez, Liz, and I thought that the name Lulu was an indication of a fondness for German Expressionist opera.
I'm sorry to say that I had a cat named Lulu once, who terrified any woman I invited to my house. She was big, mean and very jealous, which is charming in a blousy sort of way. |

Hi,
Thanks for pointing that out to me! I never knew you could check that Member's List! I was shocked to see I was in the first page of the highest post members with about 90! Some interesting info! What is the point in registering and then NOT sending at least one post! Amazing! Ally |

I have not seen the list but feel that the number of postings by certain members is what keeps the BB going. You get lots of one or two time postings by some members and are gone . I have said this before and I feel it would give a truer count of members and that is, if it is more than 3 months you have not heard from a member then it is kicked to the unused file then every 30 days that file is deleted .

In cartoons they always say "Watch that first step, it's a Lulu!" Never knew why, though.
I had a cat named Field Marshall Montgomery once who terrified everyone who came in the house except my college roommate's brother. The other cat was named Field Marshall Rommell and was as peace loving as a hippie. Go figure. |

From what I understand of the personalities of the men, FM Rommel and FM Montgomery (The cats) seemed to reflect those of the men.
Rommel was genuinely loved and no one liked Monty very much. |

Gee, I have posted the 18th most posts.
WOW I never realized how much time I have wasted in Networking class on this forum. Thanks Craig, this forum has enhanced my education in so many ways. Not many of them good. Still have a long way to go before I get anywhere near Liz, Ken, Craig, or that drunk guy. |

You're on Minardi!
Well maybe not, that would cause us to make many pointless posts. Like this one. |
