invitation to become a member of DRAFT

[Oorang]

• Nate's been terrorizin' society w/ "real" avatars since long before Erik joined the board and started the DRAFT movement.
• That is Tracy's face in that avatar. The rest is due to my prompting Barry K. into creating it for her. For as long as I've been here, that's the first time I've seen her using an avatar, so I think it's wonderful progress. Baby steps...
• Erik, why'd you let the cat out of the bag? I almost had Richard convinced that for DRAFT members, the first face was free, but it was £100 for each additional face. I was tryin' to get ya set up with a nice little subsidy... sheesh...

You could buy a mask for $2.

Say, seeing as it's Hallowe'en tomorrow, you don't have a spare Von Der Heyden mask kicking about do ya?

 

[Richard Schollar]

...Say, come to think of it, a Truby mask to scare the little ones wouldn't go amiss either!

 

[Jon von der Heyden]

You don't need a mask - your smell alone could disperse crowds!

** from dictionary.com **
pars·nip (pär'snĭp)

A strong-scented plant (Pastinaca sativa) cultivated for its long, white, edible, fleshy root.

...your smell alone could disperse crowds!
-jon van der heyden to richard scholler

Ah, I see... so Richard's original parsnip moniker was not due to a resemblance to white, fleshy roots; but rather based on being strong-scented... thanks for clearing up the mystery, Jon.

Exactly! Or wikipedia.org:

In the United States, most states have wild parsnip on their list of noxious weeds or invasive species.

and

Some people can get an allergic reaction from parsnip, and parsnip leaves may irritate the skin.

which explains the rash I got after I saw him last.

I think you're out numbered here Rich!

Arrr, just kiddin'! We love you really

yes, babe steps indeed

if my understanding of this "english" is correct, we were almost partners in business and I missed the chance
next time throw me a copy when emailing such messages :wink:

OK people, I think it's time to return to the purpose of this thread and not allow miscreant elements such as Van Den Heyden and Greg to misdirect the topic. Come on guys! Act your ages!
