I sent a smoke signal, on a cloudy night, to my friend in the next village, 35 miles away. Then he had to call that guy "Peggy" from USA Prime Credit. I think it took 3-14 hours.

It required some coordination.

There's the problem.

Chapter 2, Page 2 of GeezerMeter Handbook:

"...said GeezerMeter poster who attempts to update the Meter shall not use:

1. Migets
2. Prarie Chickens
3. Simese Twins

OR

4. Smoke Signals

to update the Geezermeter."

You have over 370 more chances.:D

This has to be corroborated by someone else on said GM thread.

Anyone? This may be a ploy by that WB guy.
 
Quimby said:
I heard that Col. Lee, who happens to be distant relation to a famous FI poster, is a master corroborator on said bylaw.

That has not been verified.

I'm pretty sure you need to check ancestory.com.

The "Lee" you're talking about on FI doesn't have any relatives that stand upright.

Ancestory.com doesn't list farm animals, so Genny Lee's family won't be listed anywhere but on a BBQ joints menu.

OOOooooo, I know what I want for Christmas. Start retirements a year early?!

Please Please Please

I've been REALLY good this year!
 
Kick them to the door, to the door, to the door...

Lyin on the floor, on the floor, on the floor...

This one's poor, and this one's broke, this one's is giving all the FO's a stroke...

Kick them to the door, to the door, to the door...

lying on the floor, on the floor, on the floor...

This one's got a plane, and this one's got a boat, kick them in the ass and see if

they can float...

Kick them to the door, to the door, to the door..



Thanks ya very much...
 
ONE YEAR TO GO!!!!! 366 ONE YEAR TO GO!!!!!
For you naysayers out there who doubt me, I suggest you tell me what your plans are for 29 FEB 2012. I'll be at Whataburger! ONE YEAR BITCHES!!
 
what's funny is we are gonna be so happy when the retirements kick back in.......then a week later the world is going to come to an end! :laugh:
 
And if the world doesn't end, the retirements will REALLY start in earnest, as all the geezer-meter watchers who will be hitting 60 will be retiring too, so as not to be hypocrites.
But then again, maybe they will stay after all, so as not to provide windfall career advancement to someone else...
 
Our Theme Song!

Hi Everyone:

Long time lurker, first time poster. Many thanks to all the hard working Geezer Meter Gaurdians. From a fellow pilot who has been brutally tortured by this 5 year stagnation, I am dedicating this classic song to our cause. It is almost our time. Keep the faith. We will prevail.

I have altered the words a bit as indicated below (in black). I changed them to reflect a scenario where we might see, Whataburger, Quimby, Bake, Gup, and a few other thread slalwarts singing these words loud and proud up on stage like these guys. The rest of us would be in the audience with lighters and the super hot girls from your awesome avatars.

Ladies and Gentlemen...It's The Final Countdown. Please sing along.

Regards,

BigRed1

They're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe they'll come back
To fly, who can tell?
I guess there is ALPA to blame
They're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?

It's the final countdown
The final countdown

Ohh
They're heading for Sizzler and still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen them and will welcome them all, yea
With only ONE SHORT YEAR TO GO and then they'll be gone
(will be gone)
I'm sure that they'll all miss us so

It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
(The final countdown)
Ohh ho ohh

The final countdown, oh ho
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
(The final countdown)

Ohh
It's the final countdown
They're leaving together
The final countdown
We'll all miss them so, NOT!
It's the final countdown
(The final countdown)
Ohh, it's the final countdown
FUK Yea!
