Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • Ain't coming up for me either! The END is near, I fear.........The four horsemen be upon us!

    -- You can't be late until you show up.

  • Here's something scary, regarding Barney (the freaky purple dinosaur):

    CUTE PURPLE DINOSAUR is the number of the beast. You don't believe me? Convert all the U's to V's (as in ancient Rome) and extract the roman numerals.

    CVTE PVRPLE DINOSAVR => CVVLDIV => 100 + 5 + 5 + 50 + 500 + 1 + 5 => 666

    The four Horsemen: Gertrude, Bruce, Jim, and Nancy. Who could be afraid of them with names like that? 😀

    If we are coming up on the number of the beast & the end times & all that because of the Thread, then the four horseman & the anti-guy must be hanging around here too...

    Well, that anti-guy is easy. That's Steve.

    As to the horsemen, my picks

    Conquest - Gus

    War - Gail

    Famine - Lynn

    Death - Jeff, of course

    I'm pretty sure it's "Disease, War, Famine, and Death". That would make me Disease. Anyone who knows my sense of humor reasonably well would probably agree that it is a plague on mankind and a weapon of mass destruction of the worst sort, so that would fit.

    You're sitting at my station, using my equipment. Is there a reason for this or should I just go ahead and snap your hands off at the wrist?
