I don't think I like being referred to as "trunking". I guess I will have to get posting so I can be "flowering".

Odd, I am not sure I like being referred to as "flowerng". :)

Oh man, now you're just encouraging me to go back to posting the constant waffle that i used to. I know it's still waffle, but at least it's been less constant for a while.

You've also given away all the secrets. It would have been cool not knowing when we were going to get promoted, but I guess after a while of seeing everyone elses ranks change, it wouldn't have been hard to work out.

Kris, you already changed it... unknowingly! That is why it says "Kris" under your avatar.

To change it click "My Controls" then click "Edit profile information" The very top field it should say "Custom Member Title" and that is where you write in your own title.... you apparently wrote "Kris" in that box.

*The Custom Member title box only appears for members over 4,000 posts.

Hope that helps! :)

Darn, I had that privelage a few of days ago, now I'll have to wait another few years to have it again at my current rate of posting. I wonder if I'll remember that I chose Palm Stalker as my title in three years time.

I've just laughed myself silly at the idea of some of you being called "flowering" and "trunking". Be glad we're not also being called "pollinating" or the like.

Sometimes I'm spending too much time on PalmTalk, mostly reading though. I don't see how every one keeps up. I only read a few of the subforums because I just don't have time to get to the others - I can't even read all the ones in the main palm discussion; I just read selectivly depending on the title. At least loading pictures doesn't take as long as in the past, so I should be posting more photos now.

Do you guys ever sleep?

And the weather is beautiful right now, 62°F and only 82% humidity (which is low at this temperature) so it feels wonderful outside, all my doors and windows are open. As soon as I finish this cup of coffee, I'll be playing in the yard! When it heats up, I'll come back to the computer to read.

You are having great temperture and humdity (did you bring it back from the Biennal?) - South Florida hit another record high yesterday, we need rain. The everglades is currently on fire and we awoke to a smoky haze. I still feel safe that our president has assured us that global warming is just a myth. I need to go and plant more Cyrtostachy Renda in the ground.

Damn, now that I graduated and have to work all the time I'll never make it to 4000. I probably have at least 4000 if you count all my posts from the previous forums that crashed... does that count for anything?
