Are you famous?

No, not famous.

I guess my post count's not high enough.

Being famous/infamous isn't always cracked up to be. I do get the "Hey you are Chris Norse. I lurk the forums and see your name all the time." inworld all the time. It usually happens when I happen to be standing in front of a "insert kinky sex toy name" vendor.

I'm suprised Jumpy isn't all over this one.

@Pep - It's not the kill, it's the hunt that's the fun part.. some even practice a strict catch-and-release policy

I relish my anonymity.....

That seems a MUCH more sensible attitude than my initial urge to have a good sulk because no one has ever told ME in-world that they've read my posts . . .

Of course, we can't ALL be Chris Norse, can we?

I wish it were true

I've had the "OMG it's you" happen to me too. It's kind of hard not to with this horrific post count.

ETA: Just looked, I guess for the first time, at your post count ...

Brenda is famous for her post count, her love of flying and her creative (and perverted) uses for duct tape.

I'm working on a way to combine the last two.

have you thought about duct taping a bunch of faeries along the blades of a helicopter?

Sure, as a VB asst admin, changing it would take all of 5 minutes including making the pic itself, but LL won't do or allow that. These VB forums are pretty much "right out of the box" default with no customization done except for the header image and a few links added. Purchased, quick setup, and forgotten

ducT tape. Sorry - I hate it when people call it duck tape.

But duck tape is the real name. It was invented in WWII for sealing packages and was called that by the soldiers because it shed water like a duck. It's not used for ducts at all... the tape you use for sealing ducts is a kind of stiff metallized stuff that's nothing like duck tape.

Duct tape (sometimes called duck tape) is a vinyl, fabric-reinforced, multi-purpose pressure sensitive tape with a soft and tacky pressure sensitive adhesive. It is generally silver or black in color but many other colors and transparent tapes have recently become available. With a standard width of 1+7⁄8 inches (48 mm), duct tape was originally developed during World War II in 1942 as a water resistant sealing tape for ammunition cases.[1][2] Permacel, then a division of Johnson & Johnson, used a rubber-based adhesive to help the tape resist water and a fabric backing to add strength. It was also used to repair military equipment quickly, including jeeps, firearms, and aircraft because of these properties. In Canadian military circles, this variant is known as "gun-tape", typically olive-green, and also known for its resistance to oils and greases. Duct tape is also called "Riggers Tape", "100-MPH tape", or "Hurricane Tape" in the military [3] - a name that comes from the use of a specific variety of duct-tape that was supposed to hold up to 100mph winds. Another version attributes this to the fact that soldiers often refer to something that exceeds expectations as "High Speed."

In the post-war period, the housing industry boomed and people started using duct tape for many other purposes. The name "duct tape" came from its use on heating and air conditioning ducts, a purpose for which it, ironically, has been deemed ineffective. Its strength, low cost, and remarkable versatility make it a household staple throughout North America and Europe for temporary repairs and general-purpose use.

You know that the flirtation is a fail when you get: "So . . . do you have any RL pics?"
