Hello...? Anybody home?

Post by Tine »

Wow... according to my profile, it’s been 6 years since I last logged. Of course, I have remained in touch with a couple of you over the years, but I have thought about this community often. So when Jef V prompted me a few days ago and said “we miss you on OO”, I thought “what the heck?”
So..Is there room for one more little Canadian woman on these boards?
(It was so nice to see all these familiar names still kicking around... Sigh, feels like home!) :wub:

Welcome Back!

Unfortunately, I was not a member of this board back when you were posting, but I welcome you back on behalf of the entire OO community.

I'm sure you'll get lots of responses tomorrow during normal business hours since most posters here only post while they're at work. :P

Indeed, we fondly usher in your aberrant Canuckian ways. Welcome back to the fold, Tine.

Incorrect, we're actually already above quota. Please cease posting until someone leaves the community. We'll contact you by post.

I saw a commercial on late night TV. It said, "Forget everything you know about slipcovers." So I did. And it was a load off my mind. Then the commercial tried to sell me slipcovers, and I didn't know what the hell they were. -- Mitch Hedberg

Good to see you here Tine! Do you like the new paint job? Contrary to persistent rumors, we actually used red paint, and not the blood of Chris Grenard. That nobody can explain his disappearance is a mere coincidence. :ninja:

Yep, haven't budged :) Haven't seen Simon in a long time. Not sure if he still lives around here.
