Smokey! Good to see you.

Moonie's here. You just have to find him. I suggest waiting for sundown. ;-) --Bob

Gosh! Are all the BBs from Kentuckiana elves?



And what's the significance of your new screen name? Is it a tag line I should recognize, if I knew what game your avatar came from?
I decided that with my debut on a new bored I wanted a new moniker, basically anything that wasn't my real name. I pondered for awhile, then realized that right now I'm at a point in my life where I seem to be constantly in search of things. I'm searching for another game show opportunity, searching (or soon to be searching) for a new job, searching for answers, searching for better ways of living, etc. Thus, the new handle was born.

Since the new Legend of Zelda game, Phantom Hourglass, was just released, I chose to use Link (the hero of the game) as my Avatar. For those not familiar with the Legend of Zelda game series, much of the fun of the games is searching for all the various hidden items and solving the puzzles that bar the characters way as he searches to find them.

Here's a puzzle that stumped everyone during the original Zelda game that Marley needs to use for his avatar....

Quite reasonable.

Thanks for the explanation, ummm, Link.

I'm not from Kentuckiana. I'm from Indyucky.

Seriously, I only hear the "Kentuckiana" tag applied to your corner of the state. Down here we tend to call ourselves "the Tri-State area." Us and about a thousand other confluences of three state borders (I know, the math doesn't really fit, but work with me, here.)

Think I"ll go hunting for a new avatar, now. Libra's starting to bore me.

I don't know. If we could find a higher resolution image of your avatar, that mystical Justice figure might be an elf! :)




Or--looking at her roots--maybe some kind of dryad. :wink:

Your kids are beautiful, Mike. So, when did you trade in your babies for these gorgeous big 'uns?

I'm glad you brought that up. I've been wondering about those line-dancing chimps, too. :wink:

Those are the Irish-dancing chimpanzees from an Arby's commercial. You've got to admit, they have great posture. . .for apes.

Actually, I've had the same thought about my real kids.

Oh. Irish dancing!

I guess I haven't seen that commercial, otherwise the connection would have been obvious. :)

The commercial is for Arby's sub sandwiches, a new product on the menu. Without seeing the commercial (which always makes me laugh,) the Irish connection would be clearer if they'd dressed the chimps in little hard shoes or ghillies, but you know how difficult it is to find dance footwear in size 5-EEEEEEE.

Of course I am... I'm never leaving here -- I was actually in LAX for an hour last Thursday night... coming home from Hawaii. Didn't see anyone famous.

Sure, get in touch and we'll try to fit in a lunch sometime...

I tried to contact vails on an email I had from Grand Slam, but it came back. :(

We HAVE to find him before another season of Amazing Race starts, as I can't stand the thought of missing out on commentary from shallowvails!
