So EarlJam came up with crazietalk? I wonder if the hyphenated boys hijacked EarlJam.

They come from over yonder, but are frowned upon.

The rotating moderators and over all concept of CTN in the earliest days was, as I recall, in direct response to what we didn’t like about the DBR. Several of the original names proposed had a decided anti over yonder sentiment. Cooler heads prevailed. Yeah for cooler heads! There was substantial ill will between some of the CTN founding fathers and mothers and persons moderating the DBR and frankly it was the motivation to get the CTN ball rolling.

I am glad the CTN very quickly evolved away from an us vs them mentality and that the number of DBR related posts dropped off within the first week or so. You see one every now and then when something unusual happens but not very often.

This is a good thing. We aren’t the DBR. We don’t want to be the DBR. We are not going to turn in to a news source for Duke Basketball. They have their place, we have ours.

We are the cyber equivalent of the Bull & Finch (Cheers) the place where everybody knows your name. Where people genuinely care if Elfant has gone missing…or if Windsor wants a cigarette…who worry about Ima’s daughter and Uncle Yucky. We kick shins. We send vibes. We like beer (bud light is not beer). We disagree but thus far, we do not fight.

We are a rag tag group of people united by a passion for Duke Basketball who are rapidly morphing into a family…who welcome like minded souls with open arms.

Pull up a stool, pour a brew and tell a tale…all are welcome here (unless your name is Tumbo...or Dumbo...or Mumbo or oh hell I forget... )

Things to define:
Over Yonder, TBTMNBN et al
Brunchgate
shin kicks (from, as I recall the 'Things I learned from a the playground' thread over yonder...at least that is what I think started the conversation - it was red rover and little girls clothes lining people and one of us (Tilly? Sue?) jumped in with kicking shins
LASERS

I'll try to keep an eye out for inside jokes and flag them when I see them

Lavabe loves, loves, loves my little Moneypenny. But, it was Katie who ran away.

Thanks for refreshing my memory on that one. Moneypenny was too young to run away. Fortunately, Katie Kitty returned.

In an effort NOT to do any meaningful work...I went over yonder and searched the OTB for shin/kick (let me mention now how much I hate having to wait 30 seconds between searches)

The first reference I found to shin kicks was:

A month later BostonDevil requested mental shin kicks in the LTE. Several happily complied

And that I am lord of the emoticons.

And that (I think it was Wilson?) was finally victorious in the group effort to teach the king to quote. And I managed to teach him how to make an avatar.

That's coup d’état. Man, this grammar police badge does wonders for one's PWing efforts.

And this was a group effort. I do think, however, that it was my good-natured ribbing that finally spurred dd to learn how to do it.
