due to some quirky thing with the discussion boards at BN (supposedly, someone once started to post a message in this thread that would have started a new page, and then changed their mind, backing out of it), every time we reach the end of a page, and new page number shows up, but when you click on it, you are told NO POSTS EXIST FOR THIS TOPIC. That's when you have entered the hole, and then you post really quickly to get the first page on the next page

I think that sort of explains it!

Doesn't seem to happen with other threads, but it is a long term thing here!

Hi! I'm good... I'm much more of a lurker these days. I don't have plans to attend any shows this summer so I don't have much to chit chat about with everyone here. :-?

1 more day.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.
