Hello Everyone!!!  I'm back!!!  I'm all moved!!!!  Now I have to unpack boxes!  I swear it takes a month of Sundays to pack and then 20 minutes to get it all out of a trailer!

I went for a swim this morning!  I got 1800 yards done.  It felt great to get back in the water.  I am now on track to getting my 10,000 yards completed this month.

I'm probably going for a run this evening.  My running group is expecting me.  I guess a little bit of social contact will be good.  Cardboard boxes have no personallity!

I'll get caught up with the thread when I can.  What has everyone been up to?  Cheers to everyone!

Great job on the swim!  Moving is stressful... I'm so impressed you got in a workout and you're right, boxes really aren't all that entertaining .

Oh... remember the Divinyls?  Wonder where they are now (I'm sure one of you will get right on researching that).

You summoned me?

According to wikipedia, the group formed in 1980 and did a bunch of crap in Australia that noone ever heard of until 1991, when they released "I Touch Myself," which hit #4 in the US. They never did anything else in the US because they got in a tiff with their record commpany. Allegedly, however, they continued to rock Australia. (Cat - verify?)

In the late 1990s, they spent time concentrating on solo acts, but never officially disbanded.

And - breaking news! As of October 2007, they are officially back together and will be releasing a new album in 2008.

Little known fact - their original bassist was originally in Air Supply.

Photo - from their appearance at the 2007 Arias award.

(Mila, why do you tempt me so? You know if you ask, I can't resist myself er, my elf.)

Edited because I can't type worth a darn.

Scott, you're forgetting who's making the ref? 

Well I'm certainly not forgetting who's making the ref... seems the he, on another team, no less, has visited the Evil Elves a couple of times today (to my none up until now) which is interesting since when I was at the gym, you know, to SWIM, I received a personal message (as in from an in person messenger that someone sent) stating that I was to "stay out of the Evil Elves" today... as if I wouldn't know who that was from.  Tsk, tsk... surely you know better by now, Lou .

Lou never learns...I keep trying to teach him, but he just doesn't get it...

Hiya Elves!

Hector (HCS5QA) I have just been speaking to Donto and he will get an 'official' spreadsheet to you for collecting team data probably in the next 24 hours.

I will start a Team Leaders thread as well for the check in at the end of the week... the reporting week starts Sunday and it would be great if we can have all the info in by Monday Pm please!

If you forget i will be posting reminders!

Happy Swimming

Donto and Cat

D001 - 2007-12-05 12:10 PM  Maybe they should give stars for blogging?

Yes, that was my point exactly!!!! 

Really all I want is to have enough posts to create my own title.  Is that asking too much?



At 1043 posts, I'd say you need to pad more.

PAD PAD PAD! You'll never get to name yourself at this rate!

Oh wait. If I hit the submit button, I'll be shamelessly padding my post count. (The title of a former TAN thread.....)

So, I will be a good little BTer, and put something "on topic" here:
I swam today.

Of course, you aren't my team, so you don't really care if I swim, or drown, or stay at home eating potato chips on the couch. But Cat does, and she's probably spying being a good challenge organizer and monitoring this thread.

Is it my connection, or is BT's server moving slower than a 84 year old snail?

(Seeing as how I don't think snails live to 84 years of age... I think you get my point....)

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz. By the time this post sends, I'll be 84 also........

No, my post of substance was the answer to Mila's research question on Divinyl.

Not bad for a non-swimmer last December!!!

So...was just wondering...what's your elvish name?

http://www.chriswetherell.com/elf/

For example, when you input Mila's name, her (evil) elvish name is: Mila...

If I were an Evil Elf, mine would be Lenwë Ar-Feiniel..
