Ok all API members, let's try this again...and this time there is a full month + 1 day advance announcement to get a member chat going.

API is a active place to hang out, but we sure seem to have a heck of a time trying to get the members together for a chat session. What a great way to get to know the fine folks that make up this terrific site, and a excellent way to make the site more personal as well.

You don't have to be a Burl Ive's story-teller to participate...shoot, just hop on to say "Hi". We know that everyone here like to play games on occasion, so start with that; brag about your accomplishments, talk smack, or just ask what everyone is playing.
I would like to respectively ask that members do not ask Administrative questions of Lyndon if he is able to attend...the poor guy is already busy all the time here as it is. But I do know the thinks he knows how to play some games. *snicker, snicker*

I have been involved in many chats here on API in the past, and a few recently, and I have always found my interactions with those here to be memorable and, at times, quite funny as well.

So come on fellow APIer's, grab that marker, put a big red circle around October 17, and plan on joining in the fun!!

For your information, 1:00pm PST is:

4:00pm EST
9:00pm (UK)

Uh is a big blue circle okay? or does it have to be a big red circle? Well in any case you can expect me there.

Well........ok, there can be an exception made, but just this once!

YAY!!!! Melinda is gonna' be here too!! Holy cow, I think it has been a good 5+ years since I have chatted with you (her). I have a feeling this may be a good chat session indeed.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...you will disregard that last statement.

I'm in court?

ROTFLMAO!!!


Now THAT was funny!

Then what did I sign?

OMG...you didn't actually sign that piece of paper did ya'??!! Man....I sure am glad I'm not you at the moment!

Yeah....just incredible huh? Ah well....I call dibs on his PS3 games.

Both out of luck those are going to the grave with me and encased in concrete. Oh and lucifer AH well?! Just ah well?! No poor Red We knew him well?! that goes for you to Lyndon! Oh and I never gave that paper back.

Well, well, well......it looks as if ol' Lucifer is just gonna' have to conjur up some minions to fetch that piece of paper! Too late pal....your "John Henry" is on it, and we......er...uh...the person wants it back.....or so I hear.

Think They can find me Indiana Jones style? Because I am in my indiana jones themed bunker it even has the giant rock ...... Oh and the turrets from portal think your minions can kill them? Think they have the heart to kill those cute little turrets?
Do you have the heart to kill those guys? I bet you can't.

Uh, yes....it is also referred to as ones "John Hancock". But my wording of "John Henry" is also a well-known and documented referral of ones signature:

Ramon Adams's excellent collection of cowboy jargon, 'Western Words': 'John Henry is what the cowboy calls his signature. He never signs a document, he puts his 'John Henry' to it!'
Incidentally, there seems to be no connection between the John Henry of cowboy slang and the fabulous John Henry of railroad lore, who was so powerful that he could outdrive a steam drill with his hammer and steel.

Didn't he die afterwords because of the strain of tunneling trough a mountain?

Yes.

"When the owner of the railroad buys a steam-powered hammer to do the work of his mostly black driving crew, to save his job and the jobs of his men, John Henry challenges the owner to a contest: himself alone versus the steam hammer; tunneling through a rocky mountainside. John Henry beats the machine, but exhausted, collapses and dies."

But remember, this John Henry of railroad lore and the "John Henry" referral of a signature are not related.

Hmm yea well back to semi topic still cant get to me as stated in the post above.

You gotta sleep sometime. Loooool

Says who?!
I dont sleep I wait.......lol jk.
