What you call "the Armageddon level" was actually a bit of tongue-in-cheek mischief which was started by Lisa; one of the moderators of the board. She did it to a few of the long-time members, and it came as a complete surprise to everyone.

Lisa has such a wicked sense of humor, and those alterations she made were so funny, that other long-time members said, HEY! What about me?!

That's when Susan (another Moderator) jumped in and added more.

Many of them are either plays on words or inside jokes. Take BK Akitas for example. Danni, among other things, is a champion dog breeder and trainer -- Black Knight American Akitas -- and has been a member for more than five years, having been a member of the Old Board. So, one of The Queens (Lisa or Susan) changed her Senior Membership to read; "Marking my territory one post at a time." Big Grin

Maggers is a great fan of the program "LOST," and she lives in New York City, so "LOST in New York" is another appealing bit of humor.

And there you have it.

Thanks, Ken. Another mystery put to bed. As I told Dave, I'll leave the Queens to their busy lives until I have something witty enough to ask for. I appreciate all the help you provide to those of us learning the ropes here.

Wapitikev Wrote:BTW, Dave. For the newbies who didn't already know, I recall reading that you are one of the founding members of the GU...which means you have likely been here (on the board) since the beginning or thereabouts. I have always found your posts to be helpful and benevolent.
You're welcome. It is true I've been around a while, but not the longest by any stretch. Lisa is still older than me Wink
