    Ok, I was postin' away at the Arcanum Inn message board. Suddenly, I get asked for my password. When I give it, it doesn't get accepted. I try again, and again, and again, and try many different variations, and nothing is accpeted, Then I notice an error message which tells me I should report it-which I do. I try again a few more times just in case, and get nothing. I shut down my computer, reconnect, and now the message board system is still reporting errors, but it also says there are no boards on the system! When I tried to report the error, it couldn't find the report error page. What is going on?!

    This reminds me a bad joke about an airplane but i will try to adopt it for the snowboards.

    The boards have 4 enginners and one of them is fired.

    Announcment :grin:ear posters dont worry the snowboards can operate with 3/4 of their enginners.


    second announcment

    Announcment :grin:ear posters dont worry the snowboards can operate with 2/4 of their enginners.

    After a while

    Announcment :grin:ear posters dont worry the snowboards can operate even with 1/4 of their enginners.


    final announcment

    Announcment :grin:ear posters unfortunatelly the snowboards cannot operate with no engineers.
    Goodbuy.May the last man close the lights.

    And all of our stars will be gone .

    ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    That's remind me

    Q - Why during the emergency landing you have to put your head between your legs?

    A - To kiss your a** goodbye.

    I know the joke is old, but every time I think about it, it cracks me up. So everybody, have nice day. :grin:

    [edit] I have the bow?? There is no way in hell I will post another 150 replays to have the hammer before game is released. :sad:

    Have faith Seth. It is still 11 weeks away roughly. Do about 14 post a week or two a day and you'll get there no problem. :smile:

    The original joke involed an aeroplane where An engine goes out and the captain says "an engine is dead but the flight will only be delayed 45 minutes. 10 minutes later another engine dies and the plane is delayed an hour.
    15 minutes later a third engine dies and the cap is delayed another 2 hours. Someone then yells if another engine goes out we'll be here all day.

    The End


    Chris has changed a perfexcly good joke into something that makes no sense.
