    OK, here's a scary one: I just figured out most American professional football players are not just young enough to be my children - some of them are young enough to be my grandchildren.

    Oh, my. Where's my walker?

    Good a few more folks answered the poll.

    We have 37 people 21 or under.

    We have 57 people 22 or over.

    Hokay, what does that prove? Heh, I have no idea but am sure there is a deep philosophical something there.

    Hail, Friend Tak, the eternal youth. :)

    Gimmie 8 months and I'll shift that balance by one, Nakia. I guess most members just are here for the Infinity Engine game forums, they have one problem, they post once, they get the answer to their question, they say thanks, they leave, thread continues for 5 pages as people argue over the particulars of the question and the definition of the answer.

    Then Splunge yells at us to get off his lawn.

    If the vast majority is younger than the minority it must mean that... People are generaly younger in SP. That must be it yes.

    You sure HB only 1% of active member? Is there THAT many people that joined SP?

    And what is the defenition of an active member anyway? I've gone and came back about twice on SP, am I an active?

    You're posting. You're active :p

    When you don't post for an extended period of time (I don't know what an extended period of time is, lets say a month) then you were inactive for that month.

    You know what it means, we just can't explain it ;)

    Exactly, yet Splunge's Lawn is something nobody can understand, it's not just the people of this boards who don't understand it.

    Hey!

    Garden Gnomes. Pink Flamigos. Dead spots from Harbourboy peeing on my lawn.

    What's not to understand?

    Now go to your room and don't come out until I call you for dinner.

    :p

    Splunge's lawn is no mystery. The key is the depleted uranium he fertilizes it with - I mean, grass that green ain't normal.

    (Psst, Splunge, I heard depleted plutonium would be even more effective)

    Spoken like an Old Fart (or Moderator).

    :p

    OK, something with a vague semblence of being on topic ... umm, how's this:

    Currently, in the top (ie. important, ie. oldest) categories, there are 13 of us. Lucky 13.

    SP is doooooomed.

    Well I'm confused (sign of my age). I though Splunge, Old One and Nakia were all in the top-top bracket (56+), yet there are only two votes.

    Which of you is only pretending to be old? (Or are so old you forgot you hadn't voted yet?)

    :p :p

    :D Fraid, Splunge, has lost his :geezer: title. Sorry about that, youngen. But he is still the Founding Father of the AOoOF for which you have to be over 40 to be eligible.
