Welcome to DukeBlue252!

[Rolvix]

Welcome! CellR is in New Bern also and he likes to start trouble...

I don't like to start trouble, it's just pretty much my job. Times are tough, and a jobs a job. :lol:

But anyways, I live in New Bern too! Trent Woods. (NBHS Senior)

[DukePA]

Welcome 252!! I live in Emerald Isle and work in New Bern. Are you up for Brunchgating (known by the rest of the world as tailgating)?

[CathyCA]

Hey, 252!

I live in the 252 also! G-Vegas/Greenville/The Emerald City.

Welcome to CrazieTalk!

[wilson]

I lived in the 252 for a couple of years, though I maintained my 404 phone number throughout.
Welcome aboard!

I still have my 408 cell. Work and home are 252.

I still have my 408 cell. Work and home are 252.

Are those those weird kind of phones with, like, a cord?

Yes, sort of. My office phone has a cord. I asked one of the secretaries to get me a longer cord so that I can walk around the office while I'm on the phone.

My home phones are cordless, but the main phone is plugged into the wall. Let's hear it for last century's technology!

Remember when cordless phones had those enormous telescoping antennas that you had to pull out when you wanted to field a call?
And you could talk about fielding that call on "the cordless," since seemingly nobody had more than one cordless?

[DukeUsul]

Remember the good ole days when we all had cell phones like Zack Morris and his dad?

You totally get a gold star in my book for mentioning Zack Morris.

Great response! I damn near snarfed my coffee when I read it!

And I have no idea what abbreviation I would like, or if I would even like one. I was just screwing around when I posted that.

Since it seems 252 surfed in here without any connection to that place over yonder, and others might do so as well, I'm thinking Wilson and I might have to get our asses in gear sometime soon and start working on that history of CTN we discussed in the other thread. Since our historical interests don't connect it will probably be the only historical work we ever collaborate on ;)

While you guys are working on an official version - 252 here is 'the least you need to know' and if you don't get something..ASK ( or just reply with we love smilies here)

Over Yonder – Refers to the Duke Basketball Report site. Most of us wandered here from the off topic board over there

Rhymes with Dumbo (or similar) a reference to an unpopular (with this group anyway) moderator ‘over yonder’

PW – Post whoring – posting for the purpose of boosting post count numbers – frowned upon over yonder – an art form over here

Drafting – following behind someone who is PWing replying to their posts

Shin Kicking – The ladies of CTN are a feisty bunch and will channel our playground personna to kick the shins of anyone who is deserving

Brunchgate – The gathering of those who are in the vicinity prior to Duke home football games.

Vibes/Vibing – sending good thoughts/good energy/prayers to fellow CTNers (uh…CrazieTalk.Net) in need. Vibes can be requested for darn near anything…finding you child’s treasured stuff elephant (elfant)…illness...unemployment…any of the trials of life

LTE 2.0 – Longest Thread Ever, was first started ‘Over Yonder’ and when we recreated it here it became 2.0

Lasers – from an Over Yonder April Fools day joke that involved killing lemurs in Duke forest (who had escaped from the Lemur center) with lasers. Many here found if very Unfunny.

I was thinking "BJ" for me, but that has some bad connotations I guess. ;)

I spent a better part of my formative years in Havelock. It was 919 back then, but I was there for the big transition to 252

Welcome aboard 252!
