The fall isn't the problem.....it's the sudden stop at the end.

Howdy Brandon,

Welcome to the show, yes there are funny ones, skinny ones, fat ones, pretty ones and some very speshul ones.

There is a dog that runs about, a fighter jock that scribbles on most everything, a grey bearded guy from Dorset and even two Simon's; one is our boss, the other that spells his name backwards is our sage, one that writes way to long replys and another that complains about said length, one building a lovely house in France and luvs ridin quards with nurses, one that plays six strings and just opened a new mechanics business; he kinda looks like Harry Potter but don't say anything okay, else he'll kill me.

We even have some lovelys about, a snow bunny, a purdy nurse that sometimes wears pigtails, a clothes designer that wears heels, another designer that has started shooting things; mostly targets, several equestrians that luv techno dance tunes, a very hot mechanic that loves steam powered vehicles; btw she's having an affair with the guy that scribbles, and there's one that lives on a near frozen island, drinks, has a cold right now, draws anime, takes lovely portraits and is semi-sane...my kinda woman.

In time you will meet them all, hope you enjoy!

Oh yea, former ex surfer here, had a issue with sand poisoning back in 78. Kinda hit my head, broke my neck, but I'm better now, so they tell me

Regards,

Jerry

Jerry, I am afraid I may be the one with way too long reply's!! We are all now trying to find our identity in your description which by the way, was adorable!!

Just in case it's me that is too much of a windbag I will keep this short and simple:

Welcome aboard lonewandere! Greetings from Ohio!

If everyone would like me to name the noted Apparelyzed members I will do so...but isn't guessing fun?

- Rue, no your not the long winded one
- Mellow and Ratti, no you are not the snow bunny

I await your collective decision...if that is possible :blushing02:

Welcome, Brandon!

And Jerry - that was a nice little riddle for me. Got most of the answers - but not all. Keeps my brain busy.

Jerry, you should break this off and start your own thread about this riddle. Way too cute to be lost in an intro. I am relieved I am not the wind bag!! :doh:

Okay, arm twisted...ouch, ouch...I'm going to embellish and expand it a bit over the weekend. Perhaps everyone might add to this new topic with their own riddle, including those members that have impacted they lives, become friends, pissed you off or tickled your whatever. I'll post something late Sunday night, the topic's title will be "Riddle Me This", okay not that original but hay wtf.
