That's why you do it in the butt. So you don't get any of those Sexy TDs.

Anally Injected Death Serum is also a 'Sexy TD', you know.

It's a way to alert you, by doing the @ and your name. Apparently, it pops up on the board (at the top or something?) to let you know you've been mentioned here somewhere, then links you to it. Is that right, everyone? I only looked it up once, a while back, and may be getting the particulars wrong because I always post from my phone. I'm sure others will correct me if I'm way off base.

We're moving to Bend, OR in January, so right now the only gory details is in how much crap we've shoveled off to Goodwill in the past few weeks.

By the strangest of coincidences, I'll probably be in Bend some time in January, also. Just passing through, though...don't ever intend to move there.

Well, if you're online, @jayjay, I think it puts up a dialog box to notify you.

Yeah, @jayjay this should polyp a notify box
