I just spoke with Margie a little while ago...nothing like what was I was led to believe from some member posts here.
Going in, it didn't look very good. I needed a favor from Tim. Tim's not there. JG? JG didn't pick up. Seriously JG? I lol your parrot posts...seriously?
How about Margie? Is she available? Yes, please hold.
So, my mind is replaying the "talking to someone with a dick-patiopatiopatio" conversations that have been brought up here.
And, I have to ask a woman who barely knows me through here and a bit on FB for a favor...on a Monday. After the first two options were denied. (seriously JG?).
Margie rocks. We spoke for a few minutes about kids and college, and life, and parenting...and the favor. Very cool, very funny, and very helpful.
Thanks, Margie.
You're welcome, JFX001. Oh wait....

I was taking a dump and reading an old Road & Track. Probably.

Pics or it didn't happen.
I was going to bag on you for not picking up but there are few things better than a post-Taco Bell dump and reading an Egan article.
Aw, now I'm embarrassed, but thanks.
That IS the first time a reader has ever asked me to recite the Gettysburg Address. (I guess John wanted to make sure there was no homicidal tone in my voice when I picked up, and I can't blame him for that).

Some inside jokes are better left inside.

Well, it was a toss up between that and the Kevin Costner "What I believe" speech from Bull Durham. I chose wisely.

Yeah, I knew THAT joke- it was more the WTF are Margie and OP on about.
It's no inside joke... He literally asked me to recite the Gettysburg Address as soon as I got on the line, let me get about halfway through the opening line and then said, "You don't SOUND scary." So, uh, thanks for the patio and cement mixer memes. Makes readers who call with legit reasons afraid of me.
edit: Oops, here's a gratuitous smiley, because apparently my post above explaining how memes make me appear scary when I'm not was, actually, scary in itself. So maybe I am scary, at least when typed.
