poor imitation
Actually, FID appears to be a lot more exciting as supposedly there are a lot more lurkers there, right Cranky?

More cycling is discussed in the TAN than in FID. Thus, it appears to me that the FID is actually the reigning champ of being . . . well . . . about nothing.

Just like Seinfeld...the show about nothing.

However, I think there's usually something going on over there...more interesting avatars at the very least...

He lives in America. Gimme a break already. He's one of us now (except for the times that I don't wanna claim him, like the post above. )

Hey... I've made a 100 or so posts in the TAN thread (only three replies back to those posts though.. ). They're a good bunch. They at least don't have any objections to meeting each other in person....

But the FID is not the TAN. We rock!!

Here's a thought Crankmeister . . . perhaps they don't object to meeting in person because um . . . well . . . there's not quite the same spice shall we say, in the TAN?????? Just a thought . . . .

And who said they weren't meeting in person? I thought you were buying mine and NNS's airfare to our scrapbooking/spa weekend?

And, btw, were those replies from me in the TAN? That doesn't count.

(and if an TAN members are lurking, which I doubt since it's summer there and they actually do things like, oh, ride their bikes . . . I'm just playin'. I love you guys.)
