    Did I tell you that I am very jealous??

    Seriously, good for you. I have spent my life in an office and I started to regret it - but having reached a ripe middle age and with 3 boys to put through Uni, I haven't got much choice...
    On the bright side, I will retire in a few years and will be able to indulge in my hobbies... while you youngsters will still have to work! Hah !!

    Have fun!

    Please, please, excuse me, excuse me.

    Oh King Cannibal...sire who is great and powerful, eternal light, and knower of all things hammock related. I sadly have to infrorm you that there is a usurper in the land and his name is Trekkingnut. He is making inroads into your domain, and has cast his eye upon the "Most Posts" jewel.

    But not to worry, he will be out of the country soon, and we will be able to break down whatever he has built in the time of his absence.

    Do not be fooled by the promises that he whispers in your ears. He is a King Cobra in adventurer's clothing, and has assumed the form of a man-child to decieve you. Part of his power is to be able to shift-change as all changlings can do.

    We have it from an excellent scource amongst the fairies, that his castle is undefended while he is away and will be easily defeated.

    Take note that he has craftily made an attempt to hide the word "king" inside of his user name.

    Now....Down on your knees dawgs! All hail King Cannibal!

    How many post to become a senior member?

    I'm trusting it's quality and not quantity. I hope that there's some trust in the forum. Thanks, that is all.

    In case it's not clear to everyone, there's absolutely no status based on that little title. It's a completely arbitrary default built into the system (except for the donating member status) and it doesn't mean anything. The only status we have on HF is who has the most fun camping. And sometimes who has the funniest sig blocks.

    Just Jeff has either long forgotten or never suffered the demeaning, disgraceful disgusting, disturbing, disreputable, dishonorable, insulting, contumely, outrageous, insulting, odious, debasing, ignominious, dastardly, vile, appellation junior member. I'm certainly glad I do not dwell among them.

    And who has the most knives
