We should probably be passing around a conch shell at this point...

I'll only participate if we build the Hall of Fame in Cleveland within 10 years.

I'm not sure all of my members will be willing to show up at the same time to accept my reward....

How many members have you got?

ROCKMAN

You mean IORR is going from a fan site (as in fans of the Stones) to a fans of fans site (as in fans of Stones fans)?

I wonder what people in the Stones organization will think of that.

There is a stones organization? Explain stoneism then...

<<Explain stoneism then...>>

I don't believe I participated in that thread, so I can't explain it. But I would guess at saying that it sounds like a certain way of life, or a credo and/or identity, and, perhaps, even a philosophical approach to life, or an ideology, as would be implied by just about any "ism" really.

You mean there is no Stones organization? Then who hires all those people to drive those trucks and fly the band around? They have a logo, so they're a company brand. They even have a small army of bodyguards. It doesn't get any more organized than that.

Don't worry about it. I enjoyed typing my post.

...official induction of the 1st. Principal of the University of Iorr Campus.

A thankless job, if there ever was one. So, who is it?

You know, some people might get upset, although it should be OK if everyone has a sense of humor. OK, I'll start:

Worst Thread Ever: IORR Hall of Fame

Some of my favs were the unintentionally funny, like the ones with just a dot, when people tried to delete their threads.
