Seriousness Question for the third weekend in the Year ...

GeoffC · 01-15-2011, 06:37 AM

Have we stopped the Friday questions ?

Javed · 01-15-2011, 06:44 AM

One of the previous questioners seems to be resting from this (as is their right if they wish) and another is no longer with us at the forum.

Maybe it needs a new flashier title.

DixieGal · 01-15-2011, 10:52 AM

I nominate Geoff to volunteer to lead the Friday questions into the bold future of 2011.

happy_terd · 01-15-2011, 10:53 AM

I thought he did half of them already.

He would make a good permanent replacement. I dont think he has much else going on at the moment.

DixieGal · 01-15-2011, 10:58 AM

I think we need a poll to vote yes or no if Geoff should be volunteered to take one this onerous duty. Since I don't know how to make a poll, I nominate Geoff to create the poll. All in favor say "eye.". Those not in favor say "I."

I think he will be a good leader of a burdensome weekly chore.

CONGRATULATIONS GEOFF!

Now wait just a doggone minute! Since when do we have designated thread leaders? This is not some high fallutin' sewing machine with preset automatic functionaries or something. I say whoever the heck wants to start the dagnabbit thread otter do sew. Write? I mean...right?

Okay, you first Geoff.

DixieGal · 01-15-2011, 09:15 PM

We have another volunteer. Thanks VR! Good doggie!

I agree!

Javed · 01-16-2011, 04:05 AM

For the newer members that may not be aware, quite often we have a question of the week. It is usually posted on Friday. The question can take any form. It is usually either thought provoking, funny, amusing or mostly just plain silly.

The question of the week has even taken place in multiple Universes at the same time, thanks to a clever grey dog!

Here is a collation HT made in another thread of some of the questions of the week for your interest (and to see some of the questions we have had). It is usually great fun to participate in the question of the week.

GraceKrispy · 01-16-2011, 04:12 AM

wait, huh? who left?

Go for it, Geoff! maybe you'll earn a green shirt for your duties! VR is right behind you... ewww, vr! don't do that!! Sheesh, can't teach an old dog to stop doing his old tricks, eh?

GeoffC · 01-16-2011, 04:19 AM

Oi !

Eh !

What ... now you wait 'ere a moment of time divided by the last moment of time squared before the alter of chocolate and behind the bicycle shed with Vera and the socks that what did it do it and don't it....

What was the job I've got to do, again ? .....
