Hey, All:

Sal likes us to welcome new members to the forum, so I did my job. If I'm also now a member of the Order, so be it.

So how does this work? I have to put socks in my drawers full of knives, guns, saps, and knucks? I guess the socks can serve as a desiccant...

Stay safe,

Mike

Mike, we just need a verification picture of your knives securely stored in the sock drawer to never be used again. There is a lot of paperwork too that has already been dispatched to your direction.

We are just a bunch of knuckle heads who like to joke around and keep morale up. I think your welcome notes to new members are a perfect qualification.

Also, Tony the Bar Chart guy asked at the last meeting if Sand Packed in a Sock was a good substitution for the Yojimbo that has not left his sock drawer in over a year.

Now that Michael J. is a member in good standing, we can ask a lot of these important SD questions we've been storing up. The ^ above question has been weighing heavily on our minds.

In addition, I have a pair of socks that have never been washed, which can now stand up, on their own. I have been informed they are mildly fragrant, by several people, some of them rather rude strangers. Would it be possible to leave my two original Yojimbos in my clean sock drawer, and just wear (or carry in a holster, perhaps) the standup socks, instead? Because already they are able to keep my family away from my end of the house, and they seem to effectively clear the sidewalk when I wear them.

Looks like we will have to shelve our choreography expenses and new attire.We have to think lean . 0002,

In good conscience I can't agree. We'll have to look elsewhere to tighten the budget.

And BTW who got that great video of our last meeting? I don't recall seeing a videographer. But that circle dance we do, is really improving, isn't it?

(Has anyone ordered a tutu for Michael yet? Do we know his waist size? That information is gathered somewhere in the membership paperwork, isn't it? I thought I saw member waist sizes bar-charted in a recent report...)

I would like to congratulate all the usual suspects who successfully derailed the following thread, adroitly morphing it from an XL Mule discussion into a cookie discussion:

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=94279

Well done, chaps! MNOSD has infiltrated, the monkeywrench gang of absurdity! No thread is safe--silliness can descend on any thread at any time! Hide your wives and daughters!

The Tanto thread??

Just kidding. Don't do that. Hold it tight to the vest until the time is appropriate.
