I'm just feeling a weensie bit awkward about some jokes I may, or may not, have made. Regulars here know I make almost all comments in jest, intent on maintaining the levity we're so famous.. (we're famous?).. for.
I differenciate between public and private people. Mr Campbell has both a public and a private presence. I hope my ribbings of the public man don't offend the private man.
.........................................
and, I suppose I'm pretty gullible too.
Cliff told me to go outside and get the Llama. I walked out of our office building looking for a Llama. |

Welcome to Llama Country, Mr. Campbell! If we're allowed to ask questions, I have two:
* Do you hate it when people ask you to play "Wichita Lineman," "Rhinestone Cowboy" or "By The Time I Get To Phoenix"?
* Would you rather play "Freebird" than your own hits? (see previous question)
:D |

Nah, lets not go there.
BTW, I can't understand why people join the OFC but don't post anything. There are THOUSANDS of members with zero posts.
(Yeah, I know about the 'reset' thing, but there are still a lot of zero input members) |

That statement supposes that those with more O'knowledge are actually contributing much value to discussions themselves. :p
Can I get a ruling? Mark???

Truthfully, I joined because I had a case of GAS. I doubt Glen has that problem. |

Cliff is right.
Do you think Glen Campbell would register under his own name? The Flourescent Leach....I mean Cliff should know!
He'd do something clever like...Rhinestone Cowboy, DEElightful-1, or something like that. |

Maybe someone is just "reserving" a name not yet registered. |
