What? You want him to tell you without your doing anything like a google search to find it? There ain't no such thing as free lunch. Do your homework!

 

[jayste]

Ha! I wondered myself but figured somewhere, in a thread on how HST's are for girls or something 'ol Roy would spill the beans to us'n's who didn't know!:laughing:

You crack me up!!!

So I have to ask how many people add to this thread and say me too and then will google it and we just don't hear from them again.....

But the whole point of the thread was to see who would bite..
umm.. and your reply was just the icing on the cake...

but then again..
There ain't no such thing as free lunch......

Dang it...

But I did get a free lunch today...
well I guess the 3 hour business meeting I sat thru was the price of admission....

Ha! No! In typical Jay Stewart fashion I cruised right by it and clicked on Google! Once I read it on google I thought it sounded familiar!

 

[RadarTech]

now for all of you tuning it..
Please post you uh. wow that is funny or Roy what were you thinking.. or hmm... fill in this thought...

you know ole TEG is really wanting that TBN carhart jacket!

--TEG you out there?

Please consult Roy's Fan Club president or vice president for any questions of commercial entertainment,, social events or copyright infringements.

 

[RadarTech]

Commercial Entertainment? Really? as long as he does not wear that hat I am sure people will pay to see how serious he can be... I just could not take him serious with that hat on...

[Bird]

Yep, I bit; had to google it to see what it meant.:laughing:

 

[RadarTech]

Bird,
you are too kind.. some how I put you and Roy in the same category as just knowing so much that you can't really be taken for something like this..

please say your just being kind and did not get bit....



J

 

[RadarTech]

Well, we should be a kinder gentler group and say: TINSTAAFL


LOL

 

[dave1949]

I googled it. Need the post count to go faster anyways, ulterior motives like yours
Dave.

 

[RadarTech]

ya know you have to wonder of the last 10K remaining how many of these posts will be post inflation?

alas.. I fear it wont be fast enough! but we will so try won't we?

[jinman]

You crack me up!!!

Thanks!:laughing: So, I said to myself, "How can I do this in a subtle fashion and still put an edge on it?" I was afraid you'd be upset and never see my hint. You were a bit slow, but not that slow.

Edit: You know, Roy will soon find this thread and I bet he'll be thoroughly entertained by all of this.

slow?
HA--
but I guess I deserved that.... :laughing:

hmm.. nah- that has nothing to do why a few of my co-workers call me rainman....
:laughing:

and BTW--- as the officially unofficial post counter with a deadline.. you are officially behind on your posts for the day. you are supposed to post at least 20 times your average daily post count and I believe that should be 60 or so..
At least that is the formula that TEG and I have come up with...

For those who did not Google TANSTAAFL, it stands for There Are No Safe Tractors Around A Free Loader. In other words, don't lend out your tractor or it won't be safe.

For those who did Google TANSTAAFL, ignore this.








That increased the post count by 1.

You mean we're both old????

I first read TANSTAAFL in an old Robert Heinlein novel years ago.
I was reading and replying to a post here on TBN about a guy who wanted certain features on a "value" tractor, but didn't want to play. IIRC, he wanted the price of a 3032e with the features of a 3320.
"TANSTAAFL" just popped into my head and I added it to my sig line.
This is an entertaining thread though...but what's this about a "fan club"???? Do I have to pay you guys or something?

No! They pay you Roy. You grant them the license to be the 'official, exclusive Roy fan club', limited to TBN of course.
