I thank everyone involved, all of you. The name came from something Freeper and myself were talking about one night when I was talking about setting up the site. The getting us on a new server was a collaboration between WE, myself, and his co-worker. I got the server installed with a Ubuntu LAMP server OS, and they did the rest. I also did all the hardware work. It was a process. I'll elaborate probably later, or tomorrow. Can't believe WE hasn't shown up. Remember the slowness? With Dreamhosed? He was a part of making us faster. A huge part.

it's hard to believe that it has already been a year, but every minute of this past year has been a blast.  it has really been great to be involved in helping to build something brand new.  I sincerely thank Rebel for letting me help out.  a week ago last year, I was considering building model airplanes or something as a new hobby. :-)

we have a terrifically fun group of people here, and I am looking forward to wasting more of my life with you wonderful people for a long time to come. :)

In my mind this is what would happen:

WE ever carefully is gluing this teeny tiny little plastic piece to another part.
It doesn't go to the right spot...and it sticks.
The plane is thus ruined.
You get pissed and smash it up.
The end of model planes after 5 minutes.
WE looks for another new hobby.

free tidbit of advice;  when something with glue on it is flaming away, don't stomp on it to put it out.  first of all, it doesn't put the fire out.  second, it sticks to your shoe. :fuelfire: :rotf:
Title: Re: conservativecave, happy birthday!
Post by: Chris on December 30, 2008, 11:41:18 PM
Have you ever burned a Q-tip?  The kind that have the blue plastic stick.  It makes sparks when it melts.  Also note, do not hold a plastic q-tip while you burn it and then more importantly don't move your hand and shake the melting plastic on your hand.  It hurts.   :thatsright:

:rofl:  If I want sparkles, I'll buy some fireworks.  There are plenty of "south of the border" fireworks stores around here.

Damnit, I thought I deleted my embarrassing story fast enough.

I still have a scar on my thumb from that stupid q-tip.  I had a lot of male friends when I was in middle school, we used to burn a lot of stuff.

Burning stuff is about all there is to do in middle school.  When I was in the fifth grade, the neighborhood kids set fire to a nice spot of trees.  The parents noticed it and put out the fire with brooms and a fire extinguisher.  Today, there is a beautiful soft clearing in that area.

I had no idea what was happening but my parents have been suspicious ever since then.  Not that they ever liked that family that lived across the street.
