Stop it? Can it be that there is a chink in Tom's armor (armour) and that he's ticklish?
*evil laugh*
Now we'll NEVAH stop praising you to the skies!!
Seriously though, Hatrack wouldn't be Hatrack without Tom. What would it be? I have no idea, but certainly not Hatrack. He's an integral part of why we're the community we are, and I love that.

Generally, when Tom makes a reasonable request, I try to honor it. (We won't discuss the unreasonable requests.)
But given that we've been bound not to do this again, I feel I must ignore the cease-and-desist.
After driving a crowded car (containing, among others, a newborn) for many hours, Tom arrived at Kamacon to be greeted by someone desperately looking for a ride across town -- NOW! How many people would have simply, and quite reasonably, begged off? He must have been tired.
Tom is Good People. (Christy is too, but this is Tom's thread. )

I already said I don't believe in fairi--er, wait a second, wrong thread . . . .
Tom and Christy are indeed very cool, and ever since we met them, Cor and I have been insanely jealous of those of you who live near enough to them to be tangible friends, instead of merely virtual ones. *sigh*
We certainly are looking forward to seeing them again in March/April.

You must understand, Tom: Once we pop - we can't stop. You might not realise how important you are, and how essential you are for us being in Hatrack. You rock, Sir Thomas of Hatrack!
OK, I'll stop...

Listen, Wankery-butts: I am not doing you a favour, so at least give Tom the honour he deserves.
P.S. I never signed on the agreement, pact, or whatever it was - that I won't honour Tom: he does deserve it! So I had my second chance to expand his head until *pop*.

You could not possibly adore Tom D. more than I do, so that's not the issue. However, you are coming on a weeeeee bit strong. You may want to back of the pedal just a scootch, especially since he has requested it.
You been birthin' some babies we don't know about?
Oh, I'm sure he likes HER more.
edit: Okay, Spanky. But I'm telling you, if you want to ingratiate yourself with Tom you'll back off a bit. Then it becomes, not how you feel about him, but how you'd like him to feel about you.
JH - I was referring to Christy, who is Tom's wife.
I know you don't like me because I teased you before, and I'm sure you're on the defensive. I apologize if I have insulted you. It actually wasn't intended. I know you're quite a bit younger than I am, and that makes me automatically have 'kid brother/older sister' vibes.
Again, my above comments were not intended to be insulting, merely helpful. And again, I apologize for any offense.
You been birthin' some babies we don't know about?
Oh, I'm sure he likes HER more.
Also true, but not my point. Remember, Christy and Tom decided they wanted a baby. And Christy is a science-y type person -- she had a good idea of what pregnancy and labor would entail. But she signed up for it anyway.
Trust me, she has proven that she has more than a "slight lead." Posts: 32919 | Registered: Mar 2003

I was remiss to point it out earlier, but if you notice my first post doesn't say I like Tom the mostest, simply that I adored Tom more than Spanky, here. And I even used that expression - not to get in some lame contest - but to remove that element from my original point.
That's why I thought my comment about Christy having a slight lead was funny.
And that's the last joke I ever explain on Hatrack.

Yay Tom ! (I won't do it anymore, but since I hadn't posted in this thread because you always choose to have fun when I'm asleep, I felt like I had the right to honour you just a little, just one time. Thank you.)
