: : : maybe you guys will indulge me and tell me: who are a. dick shawn, giveaway boy, coe d. pendency, coe kane, & n.a. bling??????? bill rogers, which one are you????????? p.s. thanks to whoever said they liked the post.
: : well anything that is a pun is going to be steve, most likely. if you mouse over the name you will see the email address in the status bar at the bottom of your browser. anything with a hifidelity address on the end of it is steve, unless its thistle, which is cari.
: : and yes, giveaway boy is bill. he has been known to spread out a blanket, put some of his possessions on it, and sit there and give them all away. :-)
: thanx, yeah steven's so punny and i was pretty sure bill was giveaway boy.....any idea about the others: a. dick shawn, coe d. pendency, coe kane, & n.a. bling???????
ok, lets go over this sloooowly now...
a. dick shawn = addiction
coe d. pendency = codependency
coe kane = cocaine
n. a. bling = enabling
uh, see any sort of "punny" pattern here?
hehehe
did you figure out the mouseover trick? for instance, at the top of this post, it says "Posted by" and then there is a name, underlined, with a color that is probably blue (depending on your browser settings). this is a mailto link. move your mouse over it. now look at the bottom of your browser window (possibly somewhere else if you are using the new netscape or mozilla, not sure), anyway it will show you the actual email address that is in the mailto link. i think for all of the above, where the response was actually from the name given, the email address was steven@hifidelity.net.
another way you can figure out what email address is given is to just click the link. your default email program should launch (hopefully) and then you will see it in the To field in the email. in my case i am putting spaces in my email address to try to fool the robot programs that come along and scoop up email addresses from web sites and then sell them to spammers. unfortunately its too late, they have already found me, so i'm not sure why i bother any more. i just really hate that crap.
ok, so anyway, perhaps these hints will move you slightly closer to the truth of WHO IS BEHIND THE MYSTERIOUS AND PUN FILLED NAMES. (and i'd have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for you DARN KIDS!)
maybe all that sunlight on the other side of the bay is making you sleepy! :-)
hey i hope you come back next week, i wasn't able to make it last week. besides you owe me a punch in the arm now for the above sarcasm! ok, seeya soon i hope!
