It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think that you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt

sooo, kimmy, if thats your real name, since you've been "keeping tabs" on us for quite some time, tell us, so far who do you think is the biggest putz? don't fret, everyone here is open-minded and well-balanced readily interested in pointed criticism or even mere disagreement. and you can always use an emoticon.
I'm not concerned about the very poor.

Yes, Kimmy is my real name (the truth often times IS stranger than fiction). Anyway, thanks for the welcome!
Where do I send my membership fee (and does that include gratuity)?
The biggest putz, you ask? Well, I have always thought that anyone who is an Elvis fan can't be THAT bad--am I right??
Thanks again.

Hey Kimmy....hello, good evening and welcome to the internet's largest and most renonwned forum, first established by Costello himself as a small boy, dreaming that one day someone might make their very own thread.
Then, one fateful day soon after the promotion for WIWC began....a post appeared, and lo it said ''Hey, anyone else like EC?''....on the second day God created Narbawlz, and things started to fall into place from there on.
It is also the most resilient board on the net, having survived onslaught by Zebras, the treachery of Elfkind and also the mind rays from a ghost of a long dead Spanish king.
It's funny really, but from reading this you'd never guess that all of us posters are actually in the same ward of the asylum...

You failed to mention that the site began as a cork bulletin board in Wee Declan's room, which he would hide behind a teachest when he went out. After establishing the domain, the young adult Elvis had to collaborate with Al Gore and the US Department of Defense, among many, just to get the Internet invented so the site wouldn't continue to be a figment of his fevered imagination. We've just laughed and laughed, my old pal Napoleon Dynamite and I, over the number of times he had to answer the question "So what's this 'domain' thingy of yours supposed to be when it's at home anyway?"laughingcrow wrote:Hey Kimmy....hello, good evening and welcome to the internet's largest and most renonwned forum, first established by Costello himself as a small boy, dreaming that one day someone might make their very own thread...

Welcome, Kimmy!....You know you're name provides plenty of good rhyming opportunities, but I imagine you learned that in kindergarten....and remember that whatever happens here, being amused is always better than being disgusted.

Hey Kimmy, welcome out of anonymity. Make yourself at home. But make sure you clean up after yourself. It was Bamboo's turn to do the dishes, and he just WOULDN'T DO THEM! Well, as you can guess, a couple mates got upset, and fruitflies ensued. But these are good people.

It could only happen here
Maybe she's Nancy Sinatra.
In my school, it was popular to encourage someone to do the "Name Game" (yep, an actual fifties or early sixties R&B hit -- don't know who recorded it) with the name "Chuck." Much bawdy merriment ensued.

I'm older than my avatar looks
I believe that was Shirley Ellis.

Yes, Hungup, that is correct--it was Shirley Ellis. I learned that from reading "Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs." If you like Dave Barry's columns, this book is worth a read. (Of course, no EC songs made the list, although in some people's opinion maybe one or two should have?) That's always an interesting topic--what is your least favorite song? You know, the one that causes those sudden bouts of Tourette's syndrome...

No Elvis songs drive me crazy...well, the verses of "Veronica" when I'm in a really, really bad mood. (And I love "Night Rally" -- sorry M!).
However, "Safety Dance" by "Men Without Hats" does cause instant conniption fits.
