Ok, so I was sent back at the mention of potential bylaw changes. Underwear Drawer Keepers being considered for a possible merger. Is there a swearing in meeting scheduled already, or is that being discussed now?

Honestly the underwear merger seems reasonable to me, but as member 0002 says above, He Who is Member 0001 must decide. All hail 0001! and to a somewhat lesser extent, hail 0002!

All this time I thought we were autonomous collective. But I was only fooling myself! ;)

Oh well this is certainly great news! I will pass this on to my fellow brothers and by fellow brothers I mean my friend Greg. He doesn't attend a lot of meetings. So, basically I accept on behalf of Underwear Drawer Keepers across the globe!

Boy oh boy, I am really getting excited for the next meeting. I have transitioned some of my knives over to the sock drawer in preparation. Some of the knives were not ready to transition away from their stretchy bands they have called home for so long. In time, they too will make the long journey to the drawer next door to find their sock brethren.

On a side note, I sent Greg an email to express the joyous news. I have not yet received an email back. I would call him, but I think my number may have accidently been blocked. Long story short, during the great upheaval two factions were created. Boxer Briefs won out and it has never been the same. I know we all wait patiently until all stretchy bands will be united once again.

Anyways, I haven't received my welcoming pack in the mail yet. I am sure it is carefully being processed through the administrative office. And like waiting for the Lightweight Native Chief (S45vn???), I will continue holding down my post and cheerfully awaiting next steps.

Ahhhh ! I double posted again , what a way to start . Anyway first I need to say this thread has been a lot of crazy fun . When I first read the post by The One Who Shall Not Be Named , I was extremely angry . So I backed off , because for me in situations like this laughter can be the best medicine . I also want to say there were very helpful and caring comments, a reflection of the Forum and who we are as individuals. So we go Off Topic to post funny crazy things and have a lot of fun now at nobody’s expense , and that’s all good . There is one thing we were flirting around with and that was the idea of Spyderco Socks . David ( Guru of Wool socks) nailed it ! Why not purpose the idea in General Discussion Wool Spyderco socks with Spyderco trademark , either a large spider or a whole bunch of itty bitty spiders ? Think about it , we have hats, shirts , hoodies , and all sorts of accessories. Why not socks ? This would be about Spyderco and we can be part of making it happen . 001 what are your thoughts and all members in the Order ? MG2 002 but from now just call me Dan

You've got my vote, secret member 0002. I wonder if either SmartWool or Darned Tough would be open to a Spydie collaboration.
