Hmmm, perhaps my backpack will show up among the evidence, if the guy's a packrat (stolen October 2001 from over at Sorobon.

Thanks Marcel, a friend sent me this today...it was good to see someone get caught...this is not to make light of the subject at all, but i did have a humorus thought...a "spectacular" car chase...just where did the guy think he was going? circles around the island? Wonder if it was like the car chases we have out here in Los Angeles...did it have chopper coverage? was it shown on every tv channel?

Well that article doesn't help us non-Dutch speaking folks.

By bluetang on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 2:12 pm: |
darryl, you are right...i also thought of how it has been said that the thieves are "kids" and this guy was NO kid!
|
By Glen Reem on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 4:19 pm: |
Some caught earlier were kids. Apparently this guy had done a number of breakins from the amount of stuff in his car and house.

By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:28 pm: |
While you're at it, I have it on very good authority that a guy in that pink bus thing(bonaire solution to shore diver rip offs) was bashed over the head and the bus looted, I don't know the date this was supposed to have happened and most of the local folk kinda clam up when the subject is raised. Anybody in here know about this?
|
By Darryl Vleeming on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:37 pm: |
That guy at the pink bus wasn't Bas was it!!!
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:39 pm: |
Who the hell is bas?
|
By Darryl Vleeming on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:43 pm: |
Bas is a guy from Bonaire who was working at the Dive Bus is September. He's friends with Jake, and a lot of other people on this board.
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:50 pm: |
oh,I see. does he have a lump on his head?
|
By Darryl Vleeming on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:52 pm: |
That would be what I was asking . . . if I saw he had a bump on his head I wouldn't have asked . . .
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:55 pm: |
Well perhaps we should just ask bas.
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 8, 2003 - 5:58 pm: |
Gees, maybe Bas is knocked cold again in the pink bus.

Jake, believe it or not, I had intentions of dropping by your club, and introduce myself formally, I personally don’t like unannounced visitors, and try to not do it to others. I know your house is open to the world but I’ve often wondered if you, or your family, tire of it. In addition, of course, I’m a bum and a rabble rouser. Time did get short and the spouse protested the time that would have been involved going to a club meeting, for some reason she would rather have been diving.

Carole, Mimi as you may recall, was hanged(hung? is that correct to say the Mimi was hung? perhaps she is) in a public forum. Then shot and stabbed and drug through hallowed halls of BT and finally left for lizards up at playa fungi, as I remember. But I suspect, like the phoenix, has risen again as loo hoo. and whilst we're at it:

By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 3:05 pm: |
You know, I have no answers. Heck, I don't have any questions either. I just had to add that I love Dave and have missed his amusing and sometimes dead-on accurate musings, and well, just welcome back and keep making me laugh. I'm just getting all verklempt.

Wow, this thread really took off on a tangent.

By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 3:18 pm: |
Verklempt comes from Sat. Night Live, "Coffee Talk with Linda Richman". Very funny. Not nearly as funny though as a Harleyanna. Been called a lot of things in my life, but never a Harleyanna. Love it.
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 3:25 pm: |
So what do you suppose, that they steal this stuff and then do what? Resell it? Like no one would be suspicious of someone selling used dive equipment and prescription sunglasses with someone's initials on it from their garage around the back of their house? What's the point or am I totally missing it?

By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 4:34 pm: |
Jake, first thanks for the "verklempt" definition, I had no idea you spoke Yiddish. And re: the thieves - you're right, I keep forgetting I work with these idiots daily (in court, not at the bartending gig - although sometimes someone comes into the bar and says hey you look familiar, in which case I immediately say I work at WalMart. ha ha) and some of the things they do just amaze me. I guess to steal like that you aren't of the right mind anyway. Although the visual of a Yard Sale with used scuba equipment and wet towels fresh from a dive site just about sends me over the edge. Too funny.
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 4:35 pm: |
And to qualify that "too funny" comment - probably only too funny for me because I never had anything stolen when I was there.
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 4:38 pm: |
Hmmmm. I'm thinking some more (frightening I know) and maybe he was planning on giving the things to his family for Christmas and birthdays and little gifts "just because" but had to make sure they were all dried out before he wrapped them.
|
By Ginny Stokes on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 6:24 pm: |
Harleyanna, now you are making me LOL...geez this board is fun, especially when a discussion goes way off on a tangent. We have never had anything stolen on Bonaire, but have had similar experience to what Michael described above, from a small patio right outside our bedroom door in Playa del Carmen...security guards walking the neighborhood thru the night...but someone took my husband's Rx mask, fins & snorkel...left my stuff sitting there. I bet the thief got a rude surprise trying to see thru someone else's Rx mask - hope so anyway!
|
By John Allen on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 6:26 pm: |
Though I do not speak Yiddish, it contains some great words.(Yenta, Shvitz, Schmuck, Verklempt, etc...)
|
By Michael Gaunt on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 6:45 pm: |
Ginny - One thing to add to my story... there was a trio of folks we met from Kentucky staying in an adjacent bungalow. They accompanied us on the night dive and when they got back two of them went to bed and the third stayed up and fell asleep while watching TV - with the front door unlocked. Someone went INTO their bungalow and took dive logs, wallets, and a whole bunch of gear. I think they went through it all, took the money and left all the rest of it on the side of the building.

dave, i was thinking that maybe they fenced the stuff in aruba or curacao, but if you saw it in fiji, they must have connections.

Knock, knock, knock.....Who is it? It's me, Dave.....Dave's not here....NO, it's ME DAVE.....sorry Dave, didn't realize it was "you" all this time with the new handle. You are a trip...it's good to "see" you again and help us to laugh a bit. Yeh, we need to get Fancypants back on the board to liven the place up. Hey...Andy...come on home to us!! Ah, yes...Mimi.....shudder at the thought! Love the Scorecard, Dave...very nice touch. LOL. Carole
|
By Michael Gaunt on Thursday, January 9, 2003 - 10:57 pm: |
Cynde Lee - We were staying at Happy Holiday Homes. I had to decide whether I was going to post that or not because it's such a wonderful place and I don't want people to get the wrong impression. It's unfortunate that it happened there, but it's something people need to be aware of. I think Louise and Mel were wonderful hosts and I don't doubt they are doing everything they can to avoid this happening in the future.

I have a poster of Barney(in the foreground with the beautiful town of bedrock in the background) proudly displayed here at the world headquartes office of Acme Consulting(oops, thats another cartoon). He is sort of a role model for me, and well then there's "Betty" of course. guess I'm a Barneyanna.

By Kelly Lott on Friday, January 10, 2003 - 11:07 am: |
Harleyanna here, nice to see Andy back among us! And hi to everyone else (esp.Cynde Lee!)..... Now what will happen to the confiscated stolen goods? Obviously, it would be next to impossible to return them to the rightful owners. When the victims cannot be located to return evidence,said items usually sit in the evidence room at the Police Department, for god only knows how long, until the items are either destroyed or converted to use by the Police Department. Maybe in this instance they can make an exception and donate it? Maybe it would be feasible to come up with a policy wherein all recovered dive gear is donated to various organizations and/or dive shops on the island; or at the very least maybe they could auction it off and give the money to some worthwhile diving cause on the island? (yes I know they are all worthwhile). Maybe I need to hop a plane right now and help them with the details.

Well, Dave if you must know, I've a soft spot for men who drink double vodkas and soda without lime, not to mention that for some reason you remind of me Steve Erwin, the crocodile hunter. Danger danger danger..... Now stop whining already.

Why thank you Meg Ryan, in fact, I am Steve Erwin.

I can't tell you how fast my heart was beating (sorry dave) when i actually saw that mr. keely, andy, Mr. Wahliq, sir andrew, fancypants...geez, i don't think i have evern known someone with so many "alias'" had returned to the BT pages to defend his honor!....had me cracking up, trying to be quiet so my office mates don't hear me (oh, BTW mr. keely, my witche's brew is simmering nicely...yes, poor meryl, better keep her out of this one or else she will be back in the hospital...let's just let her keep posting the year in review, much more calming than getting into it with andy!

You know what Ida, I think you're right about that. I thought about that as soon as I posted that about her. She's probably busy working on another profile picture to make me even more envious.

Thanks for the added help Dave, but I'm on the net for over 7 years now and I've been through more flamewars with Americans AND Brits than the Bush dynasty has been with... well, the rest of the world.

Why Cynde, what do you mean old? I thought all BCs were orange, regs (real ones anyway) are chrome plated brass and the mask and fins(yep USD "rocket fins") are "issue". You would be supprised how many pimple faced newbies want to buy that old stuff just to "look" seasoned and salty on a dive boat!
|
By Geologydave on Monday, January 13, 2003 - 4:48 pm: |
and to keep on topic.....another advantage of 20+ year old equipment, on Bonaire, you can leave it in the car, sometimes the shore thiefs have felt sorry for me and left a few hundred dollars with a note to buy some good stuff......... worth stealing.

By Cynde Lee on Monday, January 13, 2003 - 9:22 pm: |
dave, i had to go back up and look at the pic, how could you forget to mention the "classic snorkel." you better keep tabs on the equipment on boats and such, folks are likely to steal it right off your back!
|
By Carole Baker on Monday, January 13, 2003 - 10:23 pm: |
A tatoo for me? Now THAT scores points! Maybe a "Sharpie" pen instead of the Bic, tho, eh? Don't lose the front tooth, tho....that lowers the game to a whole other class....the tatoo will do just fine....LOL. Carole
|
By Geologydave on Tuesday, January 14, 2003 - 9:12 am: |
Cynde, maybe its an instructor thing, I have six more "sets" up in the attic, left over from the teaching days. I guess I need them as proof for the IRS for all those gastly depreciation dollars I claimed.

Dave you're right about having a life on the weekends, this Mon.-Fri. thing keeps me sane at work most days. You are looking as handsome as ever, I am partial to that look! You are certainly in a class all your own. {as she signs fondly...} I am most amused by this who's who. Keep us guessing!

By Cynde Lee on Tuesday, January 14, 2003 - 5:42 pm: |
bob, i'm a little slow too, and i went to my online translator, and it couldn't translate "heel erg slap ouwehoeren" or "ouwehoeren", come on, please share with us of whom you speak

By Michael Gaunt on Tuesday, January 14, 2003 - 6:44 pm: |
Amazing, I think this has turned into the longest thread ever on BT - and that includes the infamous Mimi thread and the 1000 Steps Accident thread.
|
By Cynde Lee on Tuesday, January 14, 2003 - 6:54 pm: |
ok, got the translation of "heel erg slap ouwehoeren"...really now! i think it is more of a fillabuster!
|
By Jake Richter - NetTech on Tuesday, January 14, 2003 - 7:16 pm: |
Michael,

By Cynde Lee on Tuesday, January 14, 2003 - 7:43 pm: |
speaking of donkey's, and sort of back on topic, i got an email from a bt lurker, and the suggestion was to sell all of the stolen dive gear and give the money to the donkey sanctuary...now there is a stellar idea!

Ah, all is well in the homeland...the boys are back in town....and the ladies are lovin' it! This is a pretty neat thread we have going here. When will it end, Jake? Rock bangers, pooper scoopers and the rest of us nuts...what a bunch. Ya just gotta love it. Carole

By Martin de Weger on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 4:26 am: |
Boy, look what happens if you don't pay attention. I really missed this tread. Even Andrew is back. Donn'tknow what happend here. I should stay awake longer and have a closer look to all this postings...

By Igor van Riel on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 5:00 am: |
Yep Martin, when u're not paying attention the kids go wild
|
By Martin de Weger on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 5:09 am: |
Igor, I think it's the same as "heel erg slap ouwehoeren".
|
By Igor van Riel on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 5:17 am: |
Duuuuuh Martin

By Martin de Weger on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 5:30 am: |
She has... I told her what it means..

By Igor van Riel on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 5:51 am: |
Ah, Ok. But I still haven't got a clue on "fillabuster"...
|
By Susan Graham on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 12:15 pm: |
Any way to see this article in English?
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 2:51 pm: |
what article Susan?
|
By Cynde Lee on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 3:18 pm: |
Well Mr. van den Scott...I was about to script condolences as i had figured you had taken your priceless dive gear and headed off to another foreign shore to ride the currents!
|
By Martin de Weger on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 3:24 pm: |
And a real translation is not allowed to post here I think...
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 3:39 pm: |
Cynde...what? does it mean filabuster or not, my little dutch dictionary is of no help at all.
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 3:44 pm: |
de Weger...YOU again....
|
By Cynde Lee on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 3:47 pm: |
wilhelm, if i had your email address i would email you martin's translation...as yes, i don't want to translate it here in english...although, as i can't prounounce it in dutch, i take no claim for typing it over and over...i was surprised by filibuster meaning number one as well! we both "learnt" somethin' new today...
|
By Martin de Weger on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 3:49 pm: |
That's why I didn't put the translation on the board. And you must be carefull who you call a troll, We might be bigger than you know... And who says both Igor and I don't live in Florida, just across a certain river, looking at a nice house where a person with multiple personalities liv's... Wilhelm, Marcel, Dave or what other names you use.....
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 3:56 pm: |
whatever it means, I like it. I like the sound of it and the was it just kind of naturally rolls off your tounge. kinda like those "no passing" signs you see in bonaire; something to the effect that it is "forbidden to inhale"
|
By Harrie Cox on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 - 4:05 pm: |
As first user of the word Ouwehoer, I feel responsible for all the confusion I have made. I am sorry for that. The problem is that I have left my Dutch/English vocabulary in Holland, I will bring it asap. So the real translation, according to the vocabulary, will have to wait till then. I do have a vocabulary Dutch/dutch, an it explains "Breedvoerig kletsen", or "zeuren". Perhaps the small Dutch/English vocabulary can help you out now. The word is quite often used in Holland, mainly for meetings in big Companies, like Philips a.s.o. or governemental talking. We have lots of words for that, I think we are people that do so very much. Another Word is "Nuilen", typically used in the eastern Part of the Netherlands, the Region Twenthe.

well I dunno, I'm trying to post a pic of my brand new tatoo,a heart with arrow with the name carole in it. the file size is 49kb and it just won't go, I can't make the image any smaller, it's on my bicep, which of course is massive. so...guess I'll have to go back to the jail cell and get another on my hummingbirdarse so it will fit in here. I'll be back as soon as I can.

Love the profile pic, Dave...such honesty, ya gotta love it. I will scan in my donation for your fund, OK? Anxiously awaiting your tatoo update as above. Pay close attention when you return to the cell so that you only come out with one more tatoo and nothing more....Carole

At 175 messages, none of which have anything to do with trip reports (the original topic this thing was in), a few BTers suggested perhaps this thread belongs here in Community Chat. We think they are right :-)

be sure it gets nicely archived...it's a classic

I've been watching this thread (as I posted earlier, way up on top of this mountain).....and it's been very fun and educational. However, last night - I dreamed that I actually met GeologyDave. I don't even know GeologyDave - but in my dream, it was an important event. Anybody hazard to guess why that would happen - I mean 'What's up with that?'
|
By Ginny Stokes on Friday, January 17, 2003 - 3:57 pm: |
Michelle, I've been watching this thread, too, it's too long to go back to see if I ever actually posted in it, but I think not...hmmmm...is this the SUV thread or the Thief thread? I am really quite confused now about who some of these people are ... or aren't ... whatever! Oh well, be careful what you dream for!

Well after watching this thread for a week I figured that I should say that it has been a real hoot following it and that someone needs to do the 200th posting. I only check this posting out at work on the T line because it takes to long to down load on my dialup at home. Since we have reached the 200 mark is this long or what?
|
By Carole Baker on Monday, January 20, 2003 - 4:50 pm: |
Do you suppose one, single soul could have written ALL of these postings by suffering from multiple personality disorder?? Hmmmmm. Something to ponder on...Oh, what a thought. Carole

By Geologydave on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 10:54 am: |
Well, I don’t know about you guys, but I’ve got a plan to bust outta this place. I figure it’s only about 200 meters over to "Everything Else Bonaire", the bad part, its on a 45 degree incline, yep that’s right; we’re 100 meters underground here in "CHAT" !! So the way I figger it, that’s only about 9600 cu.ft. excavation. Than Bam! DAYLIGHT!!
|
By clint harsch on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 12:16 pm: |
Actually, the one with the blue hat is me or one of my clones with a great tan! As for the pictures, I usually take 3 cameras with me, two to dive with, a backup, a strobe and a closeup rod that can be used on them all. On the day in question we spent the afternoon on a shallow reef 3-40', most under 15'. My wife Janna (the horse painter) doesn't dive so she spent the day sketching, reading and reloading cameras.

By clint harsch on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 12:17 pm: |
Off the subject, has the thief gone to court yet? What kind of punishment is he looking at?

By Geologydave on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 12:37 pm: |
the depth of "chat" is of course 141.4 meters. keep diggin boys. Clint, bout time you got to work and quit jawin with the lurker folk.

By Michelle Mouton on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 12:50 pm: |
I'm with Dave - My computer just recently refused to load the entire thread - so after a reboot -I need to bust outta here. ;-)
|
By Meryl Virga on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 1:19 pm: |
Are we blasting out or shoveling! Count me in....
|
By Geologydave on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 1:38 pm: |
Meryl, both, a modified block & cave method, we'll be shooting from the solid and and let gravity do its work. It's dangerous dirty work tho I've got to warn you. Cyber rock, I've never worked in this stuff before....

By Sarah on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 2:02 pm: |
Gosh, you guys have really given me a good giggle today!.. Thanks..;-)

By clint harsch on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 2:50 pm: |
Well, Rockinbob I did like you told me. I finished the COBOL control file report program I needed to get done by Friday. Now I have to find other things to make me look busy. As for climbing in Cyber rock using the block and tackle method. You just need to make sure you have a solid grip on your Hyper Links. Tying onto a popup or a redirect can send you spiraling to unknown regions, even a crash!
|
By Andy Keely on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 3:57 pm: |
Like I told you when I had to turn down your application for the kennel maid's job, Dave .... "There's more to it than putting on a frock & pouting at the customers." ... You've gotta be good with a shovel too.

What sort of cyber explosives are we playing with, guys? This sounds serious....the deeper you go the more doo doo Fancypants gets to scoop up...for a fee, I'm certain. Ah, capitalism. Had to reboot? Now that's serious. We are headed for the bowels of BT....Carole

Having to reboot is serious - I mean - how deep can we go here? Truly. Now I'm supposed to be blasting out and I'm back in the trenches of the "bowels of BT". Help!! - there's muck and mire everywhere! ;-)
|
By Andy Keely on Wednesday, January 22, 2003 - 2:38 am: |
Wally ... I'm hurt. What did I ever do to you to deserve such a spiteful jibe? I think it's time to demonstrate my fashion credentials in an attempt to regain my credibility ...

By Kelly Lott on Wednesday, January 22, 2003 - 12:40 pm: |
You can imagine my disappointment. I thought turquoise and black matched.. I am on the line right now firing my fashion consultant. Andy, you up for the job? Clearly I need assistance.
|
By Andy Keely on Wednesday, January 22, 2003 - 3:17 pm: |
Kelly, you could learn a lot from the pretty young thing who's managed to get in between you and the lens in your existing profile. Now she's definitely got the right idea ... a nice skimpy little red & blue number.
|
By Kelly Lott on Wednesday, January 22, 2003 - 4:10 pm: |
Andy you make me laugh. Glad the distraction worked. See you in Everything Else Bonaire. x's and o's.
|
By Geologydave on Wednesday, January 22, 2003 - 11:59 pm: |
Well, I don’t know where to start. First to the only serious question, Carole; asked what kind of explosives (good girl), well it’s TOVEX, a HE. Seems to be working with a classic star pattern: 5lbs on the outside line and a 8lb "pusher" in the middle with a 5 microsecond delay. Moves this cyber rock in good fashion. The problem of course is Clint(presently) in charge of the muck crew and we are backing up badly. Seems he is too busy doing a tally of BT "record" hits. Clint: get to work with that muck crew or I’ll replace you with Meryl, a gal that can at least urinate with the men!

You just sent another tired old drunk to bed happy, Kelly.
|
By Andy Keely on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:04 am: |
Seems to me Wally that the only thing in your pic worthy of a second glance, is the lens cap. Let's face it ... even the flamingoes have wandered off for a look at the sunbathing Dutchies rather than hang around to see where Eva's hand might end up!
|
By Meryl Virga on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 9:20 am: |
I'm so glad you guys are doing all the work...can ya boost me up and I'll see if I can see the light of Everything Else....? Is Dave still with us...or has he run off with the militia..

While ya'all are mucking around underneth the Richter Estate make sure you look for the family money he has buried there (I have this on good authority).

By Freddie Hughes on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 11:00 am: |
Looks as if the dig is almost done..
|
By Carole Baker on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 11:11 am: |
Well, Dave, it appears you have the explosives under control and well planned...but, I think we need to engage the services of Royal Flush to start working on the Richter's tank before it gets out of control..they will be there in a flash to start the evacuation of the tank, if necessary. Can't really proceed with your plan if the work crew is drowning...maybe they should throw their tanks onto their backs in the meantime?? Carole

By Cynde Lee on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 11:45 am: |
well, as i wiped the soot from my eyes, all i can see at the bottom of the pit (how in the heck did i end up behind clint anyway?) are small round gold nuggets, surely the richter family fortune...cecil, i think that you need to do something about that virginpollyanna situation...tell sue you need to get down here right now to help us all out....we've already lost one, how many more can we lose....i think i will rest my head on spongebob for a while and catch my breath...keep diggin' gang, we should be able to see the light soon...WAIT...how in the heck did dave manage to get out and leave us all down here!

By clint harsch on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 11:51 am: |
Andy I haven't been gawping, I've been on the phone with Walter Magera president of the National Mine Rescue Association. They are planning a rescue. He very strongly recommend against blasting at the current time, since it may ignite the methane from the p**p that someone smelled! We also need to keep the methane under 5%, so the s**t needs to be held to a minimum. He asked if any one had their dive gear with them since the air can become unbreathable at these depths without ventalation. The other problem is cyber water infiltration that can fill the shaft. He recomended that we form some type of floation device. We may be able to use it to float to the surface. A horizontal rescue shaft is being considered but may take some time to drill since the equipment needs to be brought in from West Virginia. They are also trying to send a Navy drone to deliver food and medication (OOH, I like medication) and maybe rig another com line. Till then we are to sit tight.

How the heck are we going to keep the Media out of this picture??? That's all we need now....cb
|
By clint harsch on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 1:28 pm: |
I don't think the media is that bad considering our current predicament. Maybe we will be like the trapped coal miners last year, get our own for TV movie and get paid enough to retire to Bonaire!

Sorry Folks, I never said it was a exact science, (blasting, geology & trigonometry), it seems Andy was right, the septic tank was indeed a "super sized" North American variant.(the ACME anaerobic 15000).

You and me both Cynde; Dave and Andy you are two of the funniest most entertaining men I have never met. I don't want to be caught in the "too many chiefs and not enough indians" debate, so someone just tell me what to do! Come on, I'm a blond, I need HELP!

Dear Dave
|
By Geologydave on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 3:35 pm: |
go to everything else "Kralendijk Destroyed?" thread for some fresh air and sunlight
|
By Geologydave on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 3:41 pm: |
Sarah, why of course I'm glad to see your back, but I would love to seee your front too, and in your absence, I've kinda got this thing going with Kelly, but it looks like Keely is moving in on her (too) as we type.
|
By clint harsch on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 3:42 pm: |
Sarah! Did you come to rescue us or were you lured into the trap too? We're so glad to see you! Do YOU know the way out? Did you bring a light? Has the US nuked Bagdad? Is the Pope still Polish? So many questions.... OH, thanks for desticking Dave. He has been beating us mercilessly.

Gees Freddie, here we had all these things going in one thread, P**P, septic tanks, high explosives, that Mk2 thing, automatic weapons, beer & half zware shag and you go and post a gif. You know to hurt a guy don’t ya?
|
By clint harsch on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:02 pm: |
But they just may work. Quick check the soles for explosives, we can use the ties for fuses!
|
By Freddie Hughes on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:15 pm: |
The shoes are the escape route through the P**P in case someone doesn't want to get their shoes dirty!!! Click on them to try them on...
|
By Geologydave on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:16 pm: |
a moment of silence please.......

By Freddie Hughes on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:18 pm: |

Dave
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:21 pm: |
Dave, I will share you, but only with Sarah because I like her profile pic so much.
|
By clint harsch on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:23 pm: |
I'm always to late! I clicked the shoes but someone has already absconded with them and they can no longer be found. That's alright though since I'm still wearing my insulated waders. I'll just hose them off with a little carbolic acid when we finally get out of here.
|
By Sarah on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:25 pm: |
Kelly, I knew you wouldn't mind..
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:30 pm: |
Sarah, I think Dave can handle us, and then some! He strikes me as being very adventuresome. Dave?

By Michelle Mouton on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:30 pm: |
With all of this digging, I think some BT'rs are going to end up in China. Just think about it - what are we all going to do in China?

By Sarah on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:40 pm: |
Dave?
|
By clint harsch on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 4:50 pm: |
Sarah, I'm sorry, I thank Dave was blown clear and escaped with the explosion. I heard that all of his personalities are currently fighting for dominance. He may emerge as someone quite different if he emerges from the shock at all! I think that they are called dentures!
|
By Sarah on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:00 pm: |
That's not gneiss!
|
By Geologydave on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:00 pm: |
Well Sarah without the profile pic, I'm afraid I'll have dreams like those of Michelle, I would hate to think that you look like Dennis Hopper!
|
By Sarah on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:04 pm: |
Sweet dreams Dave.. I hope you're not disappointed....
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:04 pm: |
Can't make it at 7 pm tonite Dave, have to keep the harley bikers happy with beer, show tunes, and frivolity.. please have a moment of silence for me....
|
By Sarah on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:07 pm: |
Kelly, I think I'll join you.. cheers!
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:30 pm: |
Come on over Sarah, I'll make you some yummy drinks! Or maybe we could just meet in Bonaire, and drink some Brights! Ahhhh what a thought. Cold here, -5 F with the windchill. Ready for some warmth. Okay, at 7 pm tonite, we all have a moment of silence. I think everyone on this thread should try to meet in Bonaire. Talk about a BT dinner! Wow, I'd never come home! Okay, time to leave job one for job two, I love making money! Talk to you all tomorrow.....
|
By Sarah on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:36 pm: |
Kelly, I'd be up for all of that!.. And you're right, I don't think we would ever leave...
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 5:41 pm: |
Sarah, I am planning to be there this year in October for Regatta..... just a thought....
|
By Sarah on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 6:44 pm: |
Well Kelly. Unfortunately, 'cos of my University commitments, I'm not usually on the island until December (around the 27th onwards). But I'm not giving up on the idea. You never know what might happen....

By Andy Keely on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 2:35 am: |
Come back, all of you!! That route leads only one way .... to the eternal grey wildernesss, stalked by the tormented souls of Barry & Jason. I'm begging you, don't go! ... Ah well, I did my best to stop 'em. But wait ... I think I feel a little Bee Gees song coming on ... "Oh the road is lo-o-ong with many a winding turn, but she ain't heavy, she's my mother".
|
By Andy Keely on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 3:06 am: |
Jeez, the air is thin down here. It was the Hollies, not the Bee Gees, right?
|
By Geologydave on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 10:08 am: |
Kelly, Sarah( I won’t be presumptuous enough to mention Meryl, Carole, Michelle and Cynde lee) wait. I guess I wasn’t thinking too clearly yesterday due to my bereavement over little "Kralindijk Destroyed?" and alerted by and in conjunction with Keely’s lewd scheming; of course I can be shared and am honoured to do so.
|
By clint harsch on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 11:39 am: |
the 7 faces of Dave, I take it that Vort is abstaining? We were all disturbed over the annihition of Kralindijk, but we are also very happy to see you survived. I was afraid that with the explosion and mayhem you would be inundated with evicted personalities trying to find a new home. With the distruction of the Cybershot Super Sized Septic Sanitizer the smell has for the short term has improved considerably. The ASPCA is protesting the death of two 1/2 canaries but they gave their all for the cause and we will remember them fondly whenever we munch sunflower seeds! Back to business, The com line with the NMRA was cut with the explosion, are they still driling? Don't let the world give up on us poor spelunkers down here. With your escape We now have new hope of seeing a Bonaire sunset!

By clint harsch on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 12:17 pm: |
Latest count after the explosion of the super, duper, p**per tank and the distruction of Kralindijk

Marcel, I feel I must test you...
|
By Cynde Lee on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 3:46 pm: |
dave...sob (i would have posted a gif of someone crying, but you know...please, i beg of you, i really do need a new personality to get me out of reality...i have switched camps, FP DIDN'T EVEN LOOK to see if i was still down here which i was, collecting those gold nuggets...however, they do seem to have an unusual quality about them...hmmm(oh, and the picture of his "backside" as he was following meryl and kelly out has been permanently burned in my memory, and i don't think i will ever be the same, meryl and kelly, you girls were lucky you went first and didn't follow him out, it wasn't pretty...those legs!)...i wish i had a match so i could see better, but with all the p**p and methane gas fumes that are still lingering in this place i would most likely create another explosion, and before we know it, Rincon would be gone as well...clint, good job on keeping the head count...

Sarah, for a gal which may look like Dennis Hopper, you play a tough game.

Clint: Correct!

Since we are testing.. okay Steve/Dave... what is the primary ingredient in a Sex on the Beach? (sorry Sarah, I had to do it)
|
By Sarah on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:30 pm: |
Kelly, don't apologise.. I can't wait to read their answers!!!!
|
By Sarah on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:36 pm: |
Hey Kelly, I wonder if the boys will have enough left in them to name this one?
|
By Kelly Lott on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:39 pm: |
Have a good weekend everyone, I'm off once again to work some more. . . Sarah, did you find out about your grades yet? Just curious.
|
By Kelly Lott on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:40 pm: |
Sarah, that's funny that's exactly the drink I wanted to put, was going to list the drink and see if they could come up with the ingredients! Great minds think alike!
|
By Sarah on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:41 pm: |
Not yet Kelly, another 3 weeks.. painful!

Cynde, of course you do!..;-)

Gee, these are to easy, Water is composed of two gins, Oxygin and Hydrogin. Oxygin is pure gin. Hydrogin is gin and water. either can be used to make Budweisermium. And yes, To collect fumes of sulphur, you hold a deacon over a flame in a test tube. If you smell an oderless gas, it is probably carbon monoxide. Here's one for you,
|
By Sarah on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:48 pm: |
I'm away for a bit now too.. Kelly, don't stay away too long.. you never know what might happen...
|
By clint harsch on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:53 pm: |
Kelly, I always thought it was a beach and a cute girl. If the later is not available a coconut killer and a paper bag can be substituted.

By Sarah on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 5:54 pm: |
False!.. I am sitting on my chair!
|
By Freddie Hughes on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 6:13 pm: |
Clint,if you held a deacon over a flame , wouldn't his church congregation get mad???
|
By Cynde Lee on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 7:02 pm: |
freddie, good point...i also would like to know how clint got the deacon in the testube...
|
By clint harsch on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 8:40 pm: |
That was just the answer in the back of the book, you mean the textbook is incorrect? And besides many priests currently are getting the sulfer flamed out of them, why not a deacon?
|
By Sarah on Saturday, January 25, 2003 - 1:33 pm: |
Ooooh, it looks so different!
|
By clint harsch on Saturday, January 25, 2003 - 2:47 pm: |

micturated?...I have not seen or heard that word since I took Human Anatomy and Physiology back 30 years ago...now if my old brain is working correctly, I believe that it had something to do with the by-product produced by the filtration function of the kidneys, the old loops of Henley(sic?) reduce and concentrate this by-product to allow for constant blood volume. It would appear the blood level of the hormone, Vaso-pressin ADH has been lowered in recent postings, there by allowing an almost unending amount of micturation to occur. (and this thread is about soaked), lol and hugs to all!

First 2 1/2 of the poor things gave themselves to protect us from gas and now one has sacrificed itself to a Polygollum! I looked and looked for remains and only found a couple munched feathers. There could be more but since my helmet lamp is failing I had to cut the search short. Seismograph is showing an upturn in aftershocks. Hope they get us out of here soon!

I think that he was going to take his dive computer in to get recalibrated. Seems that he was last seen trying to ascertain the depth of a pollygollum piddle pool, when struck with wonderment & delight as he caught sight of Kelly’s cleavage. He may have broke up, he may have capsized, he may have dove deep and took water. Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the looking at curves turn the minutes to hours?

Meryl, no I work in a 15x15 cube with 3 other programmers. My job is such that I can go for days/weeks with nothing to do then I get buried as deep as this hole we are currntly in. Been a nice weekend in the 50's. So I got to change the differential in my old 5 series BMW, shampooed the livingroom carpet, took the chimmney brush to the chimminy, split some wood, made a couple birthday carda and tried to watch some TV but nothing on. It is so different at this depth from work 15 seconds to the bottom and home on a dialup 3-4 minutes. Gamer Magazine used to come with this CD where you would take an elevator down to the place where the trial games were. Using the dowm arrow while down loading is just about like that, level after level every once in a while a picture, but just level after level, going down down down. What a trip.

As it slid past us, it was plain to see that what we'd thought to be a VW ... wasn't. It came to rest half in & half out of the rock face. Stepping towards us, accompanied still by a white glowing halo, came the Ghost of Clint, dusting down his regulation white sheet & chains as he did so.

Andy I have some extra tail bands or are you just going to use a docker? When I was a kid we usually ran 5-6000 sheep, 3 flocks with 1500-2000 sheep in each. I remember being tossed into a 12' wool sack at 4or5 and not able to get out until the sack was full. The HORROR of it, I've been scarred for life! Now here in the states it costs more to shear a sheep than you can get for the wool, you can't give wool or sheep away. I have a friend that raises Angora sheep. There is some money there but the EFFORT in keeping them clean and brushed is more than I would ever want to do.

Hmmm.... Rowan Atkinson, eh Leif? I went to see a one man show he put on a few years ago. He was brilliant but it was spoiled at the end. He took a single bow without attempting to form any sort of rapport with his audience, & left the stage. It was as though he'd only turned up for the fee & didn't give a toss about us, his audience. OK, so I'm naive. I guess most performers feel that way ... but at least they attempt to hide it from us, don't they? Interestingly though, he has an Engineering degree ... perhaps we could use him down here ... if his fee wasn't too big of course!

Many apologies; I did check out the link on two different Windows OS versions (NTwk4 and 98SE), both with virus interception programs, in advance. It was clean for any virus or trojan content, but admittedly it did pop up a number of annoying additional browser spam-windows upon closing or leaving its browser window. Perhaps the assorted warnings you got were from your browser's security settings, alerting you of unexpected attempts to plant cookies. Some pop-ups these days are also trying to get clicks from you by pretending to be virus alerts, then they take you to sites you didn't intend to visit and try to sell you something.

Squatting in small groups, they were picking over the last few scraps of the giant canine, almost coming to blows as their sticky sweet politeness produced comments like … “After you Sponge Bob”… “No, Snork, you have the last piece.” & “Have I ever told you that you hair looks so beautiful in this light?”

Golly gee wiz Rockman, wondered where you had gone! You have returned just in the nick of . Time travels differently down here. The current theory put forth by the AMSTELS team is that the difference in the magnetic composition of the bioluminesent strata combined with the decompression caused by first the explosion and subsequent distuction of the SSCSS and then the ill timed explosions set to close the fractured fissures caused by the initial thermobiological blast has caused a temporal distortion around said crater. Any expertise you can shed on this theory will self destruct along with any other witnesses.

Who the hell is going to ride the seahorses?? Apparently it will be my favorites...the Red Lipped Blennies, without a doubt. Mudders??? We need to place our bets on the mudders for now with all the muck still hanging about at our sites.

Actually, the "Seahorse Carrage Company" carries a complete like of seachariots, seasulkies and harness for both Paddlers and Swimmers. The Maritime Harness Racing Commission is the regulating body for EastCoast and Caribbean harnessfish and oversee all harnessfish breeding registration and race licensing.

But, then again....I guess it might be very interesting to let this bum know exactly what we think of his "work".....what "fun" things can we think of for this "car thief caught" guy to do, folks????

I'm going to have to get the elevator here at home(56k dialup) fixed if I ever expect to get out of this pit. The first try today only got me as far as the fox before the motor overheated and had to be reset.

Dave fell on the ground writhing in agony, blood flowing from the dark hole where his left eye used to be. It had just been a short time since he had gotten his hook, it was easy to forget that you do not COVER YOUR EYES with your hands when you have a hook! Blast you Peter Parker! He screamed. His horde of quivering CC'ers imagining that the subcyber caverns were halls of a Chicago nightclub, began to trample each other in their blind panic upon seing the essence of the Gods.

Standing over an open pit, a man was seen reaching into his pocket and throwing all his change into the stinking abyss. Gazing again down the hole, he scratched his head and pulled his wallet from his pants pocket. Opening the wallet, grabbing a wad of bills he angerly threw them down the hole. Looking down again with a look of indignation he threw his wallet, keys and everything else he had on his person down the hole also. When ask what he was doing the response was "I dropped my cellphone and I wasn't going to crawl down there just to retrieve a cellphone!"

I think that I got lost... I took the left tunnel to the glass wall, made a right and ended up just west of the Colima volcano. For anyone that cares the water was very COLD and murky from Tepic to Manzinillo, not bad for boarding though.

Albequerque? To Rose's? WOW, I would never have thought! I figured Mexico City was a little out of the way, that's why I turned left there and came out of a vent hole at St Marie Del Oro.
