    I'm very relieved ... I was rather concerned (and extremely surprised) about that. Welcome back.

      In the Offline Forum, I posted a link to a sales page for an event. The link (I think) was an affiliate link. That's the reason given for the short Banning.

      I pasted the link not knowing it was an affiliate link. I wasn't the affiliate, so I didn't think to check. From now on, I will.

      I broke the rules, I paid, I'm back.

      It makes me very happy that I was missed.

        Okay, let's look for the bright side of this...

        Ummm, er, ah, hmmm...

        Okay, how about getting temporarily banned is better than getting permanently canned?

        That's it? Can't you at least embellish the story a bit for those of us that need a little more drama and entertainment in our lives? I promise I'll laugh and I'll cry.

        The same thing just happened to me, except the link was not an affiliate link... and I was banned for a month. :p

        Kay; That was very Churlish of you to say that.:rolleyes:

        I just learned the word "Churlish" from an Alexa post, so I wanted to use it in a sentence.

        Everyone; Kay called me stupid.....tonight, when we set our clocks back an hour....I'll fix it so Kay never gets that hour back! I'm going to hide that hour in a secret drawer in my dresser.

        (Maybe I shouldn't have said exactly where I was hiding it. I'm bad at keeping secrets)

        That's for calling me stupid, and talking about me behind my back..right to my face!

          Didn't mean YOU were stupid - just that posting someone else's aff link is such an unmarketer, unpromotional thing to do on a forum like this:rolleyes:

    We know it wasn't Sal's fault, because she calls him Clyde.

    I thought it might have been the he and Riffle crossed a boundary.
    (I should say that Riffle caused him to cross a boundary, which would be
    understandable.)

    Very glad and relieved it was for a simple boo-boo and very glad you're back.

      What the hell?:confused::confused::confused::rolleyes:

      Actually, at first I thought maybe Claude and I might have taken some banter too far, but I didn't get banned, so that didn't make sense.

      Biz - I call you "Biz" because we share the same name and I've always found calling other people "Dan" somewhat creepy. I can't explain it. I'm weird. - if anything, Claude baits me into banter wars. Trust me, he's a master baiter.

        Actually, I also find it a bit awkward with other people named Dan. One night
        in the little bar where I used to play pool, there were 7 of us in that little place.

        There is a Danny where I live now. He strongly insists on being called Danny because
        his Dad called him Dan. Not sure if it's just the way his Dad said it, or that his Dad was
        abusive, or both. Anyway, it's the first time I've viewed Danny as a completely separate
        name.

        I find calling people Dan creepy too. From now on, you are "The Alabaster Taliwhacker". :rolleyes:

        My middle name is Steven, and I grew up being called Steve. I was Steve for much of my adult life.

        At one point, I had an office full of salespeople working for me. Five were named Steve. So I decided to go by my first name, Claude.


        Now back to brilliant...Brilliant humor....

        I only knew one kid named Dan while I was growing up. He was a sarcastic, Churlish, (Yes, very Churlish) mean guy that used to tease me relentlessly. And I vowed (Yes..vowed) that when I grew up, I would defeat anyone named Dan in mortal verbal combat.

        I am here to fulfill that prophesy!

          Steve,

          I think it'll be fun to refer to you this way exclusively from here on out and watch everyone scratch their heads and say,

          "Who's STEVE?"

          "Steve... ya know... Steve... the OP..."

          "The OP's name is CLAUDE..."

          "Yes, it is. That's why I called him Steve..."

            My head was so big as a baby, that my birthday is January sixth, seventh, and eighth. The nurses thought my name was "AAAARRRGGHHHH!" because that's what my Mom said when I was born.

            I was interviewed once because I have the world's largest head. The interviewer asked "Claude, if your head could talk...what would it say?":confused:

            "Sniff".....please give me a moment to compose myself.....

            When I fly, I check my baggage, and they ask me if I want to take my head with me as carry on luggage. How Churlish of them.

            When I go to the theater, the people sitting in back of me tell me to remove my huge hat. I have to say "That's not a huge hat. It's my head"...and then their children cry, because they can't watch the movie. :confused:

            My head is a certified flotation device in case of an airplane crash as sea.

            And now Terra.....on the day after my glorious return...you bring up my head size.....

            Well, I just hope you're proud of yourself, little sister!

            (I just had 10 minutes, and couldn't help myself. )

            Guys; I want you to all know that I would rather be here among you...than among the finest people in the world! (I've been saving that one for a particularly churlish day) :rolleyes:

            Hmmmm, tempting, but l'd better not! :rolleyes:


            I will go easy on you since you have suffered enough, Claude,....l mean Steve, or Super Claude??? :rolleyes:

        My head was so big as a baby, that my birthday is January sixth, seventh, and eighth. The nurses thought my name was "AAAARRRGGHHHH!" because that's what my Mom said when I was born.

        I was interviewed once because I have the world's largest head. The interviewer asked "Claude, if your head could talk...what would it say?":confused:

        "Sniff".....please give me a moment to compose myself.....

        When I fly, I check my baggage, and they ask me if I want to take my head with me as carry on luggage. How Churlish of them.

        When I go to the theater, the people sitting in back of me tell me to remove my huge hat. I have to say "That's not a huge hat. It's my head"...and then their children cry, because they can't watch the movie. :confused:

        My head is a certified flotation device in case of an airplane crash as sea.

        And now Terra.....on the day after my glorious return...you bring up my head size.....

        Well, I just hope you're proud of yourself, little sister!

        (I just had 10 minutes, and couldn't help myself. )

        Guys; I want you to all know that I would rather be here with you...than with the finest people in the world! (I've been saving that one for a particularly churlish day) :rolleyes:

          And you call me Churlish?

          I even said you were a super man...Sniff, Sniff...

          And you still go and hurt my feelings.

          Having a big head is better than having a little head or a pinhead and having no head!

          If you had no head, then you would be a headless salesman and...and...sniff...and you couldn't makes sales because you couldn't talk.

          At least with a big head you could have made a living selling advertising on your forehead. If potential clients had questions, you could reel them on in with your salesman talk too because you still could talk.

          As a headless salesman you could only be useful one day of the year, Halloween.

          If you were a pinhead, you wouldn't have the smarts to be a successful salesman.

          With a big head, you could fly high, just like I pointed out earlier, but yet you chose to be inconsiderate and selfish and wrench on my tender feelings.

          And okay, okay, I can be done now. :p

                        Lmfao, I'm glad you took it well, I was debating using the image for that reason but then figured were all grown up here and know the difference between humor and down right ignorance.

                          I did see that and it was disgusting, but I was more focused on getting the dress pulled down.

                          Ha! Those thighs are almost twice the size of my own. Ewww! I don't want 'em, lol!

        Having a big head is better than having a little head or a pinhead and having no head!

        If you had no head, then you would be a headless salesman and...and...sniff...and you couldn't makes sales because you couldn't talk.

        At least with a big head you could have made a living selling advertising on your forehead. If potential clients had questions, you could reel them on in with your salesman talk too because you still could talk.

        As a headless salesman you could only be useful one day of the year, Halloween.

        If you were a pinhead, you wouldn't have the smarts to be a successful salesman.

        With a big head, you could fly high, just like I pointed out earlier, but yet you chose to be inconsiderate and selfish and wrench on my tender feelings.

        And okay, okay, I can be done now. :p

                    Not as hairy as Riffle is. He has trouble proving that he's actually naked.

                    And I have trouble proving to him that that thing in the picture is a tail..a tail. Riffle; Stop bragging about it! It's just a tail!

                    I think Riffle was raised by raccoons. But they knew he wasn't one of them...because he was too hairy. In a fit of rage, Riffle took sheers to his fur, and you know what there was underneath? More hair!

                    Poor Riffle. Raised by crazy raccoons. Then abandoned to roam the world (and internet) as a hairy, freakishly tailed, churlish...... Riffle. It's where the word "Riffled" comes from. It's Latin for "Forced to look at a hairy, tailed, man beast".

                    No wonder he's so ...well.....Riffley.

      I don't know about that but here is a photo of Claude when he used to walk the streets.







      When the market became saturated, he applied for the position of ring master for the Bozo circus show.

          Not too many people know this but before his acting career took off, (albeit briefly) Claude also starred in B grade Sci Fi movies!

          He may have starred in some other classics, still trying to dig them up!

          But here is one l found, most likely set him up for further ape roles! He, he! :rolleyes:



          Probably called, "The Attack of the Killer Apes from Mars"?

        Robot Monster. One of the worst movies ever made. A real classic. The scene
        where the little girl dies and the mother is crying is hysterical. I've never
        seen such bad acting in my life.

        Claude, I had no idea you were the star of that disaster. No wonder you've

          Joe - Aww Geez, you put me up in the air again?

          Furthermore, I don't want Claude to let me go, that's a loooong way down! I'm caressing his fingers trying to get him to calm down and quick tickling my ribs! I can't concentrate while I'm laughing.



          Look! Claude's doing tricks! He's making the fish rise by squeezing his shoulders and arms together!

          Or is he trying to catch the fish with his mouth so he can eat it? :confused:


          Terra
          He, he, yep, good party trick, but not very practical for World domination!

          Not sure about the fish, just thought it would be good for a laugh!


          My first attempt was a quick and sloppy one, but l may do something more pro, and epic?

          Stay tuned!

          I doubt that anyone can top the brilliant video, but l might come in second place?

            Shane, the video doesn't count. I cheated by using JibJab. You and Joseph are still vying for the title.

      Hmmm, pretty good, but to give everyone a hint, l am animating a previous image that got a lot of thanks!

      Can't say anymore, but l want to enjoy doing it, and try and do a quality job, so it will be a couple of days at least!


      And of course make it funny so it gets some laughs! :rolleyes:

        What are you creating, a picasso?


        This took about 5 hours, I normally do 5-6 frame animations with a continuous loop and this one has 44 frames. I didn't spend to much time making it perfect because it took long enough to do the resizing, editing and apply the amount of milliseconds to each individual frame.


        Claude doing the Gangnam style, we can call it the Claudenam style.




        This is taking to much time to do these and I have to get my work done so maybe Shane can use some of these ideas below, but it's only fair to say that I'm jumping ship and deserting over to Claude's side.


        Jack Frost>>>>> (Claude Frost)

        Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town>>>>> (Santa Claude Is Comin' to Town)

        The Easter Bunny Is Comin' To Town>>>> (The Claudster Bunny Is Comin' To Town)

        Gumby: The Movie>>> (Claudby: The Movie)

        The Pirates! Band of Misfits>>> (The Pirates! Band of Claudfits)

        Frankenweenie>>>> (Claudenweenie)


        I would love to do one like the video below but they must use some high-tec software or it would take months to accomplish.

          Oh man - I leave here for 24 hours and the whole place goes to hell. The OT is now on the first floor instead of in the basement - and what the heck happened that everyone is now in the movies - and dancing?

          My one will probably take about 15 frames, but l am only moving key elements.

      PS give it a second or two to load, it is a big GIF file, but worth the wait! He, he! :p

        It's quite alright about the height thing, it's part of my "face your fears" program. :p

        Actually, I don't think that Claude Kong is itching his derriere, but he's goosing it!

        And last but not least. I really want to thank you for clearing up a misconception that some may have made upon viewing Claude and myself in these Claude Kong and Terra exhibits.

        If everyone will inspect my hands closely, they'll notice that Claude really did twist my arms to get me to be with him, you see my palms are facing forward and my thumbs to the outside. If he hadn't twisted my arms, my palms would be facing forward with my thumbs facing inward, toward one another.

          Yeah, that is right it was all planned that way, being lazy or getting worried that l am putting too much of my time into this, instead of getting back to work, didn't enter my mind for a second! Ahem! :rolleyes:


          Hmmm, 5 thanks, cool, might be enough to take out the title?

          Thanks, guys!


          But l suspect that the Claude Xmas, will probably involve the whole WF gang singing a song, so l suspect that my tentative hold on having a chance will disappear?


          Shane

          PS don't think that l can do another one like that, considering the time it took to clear the sky, clean up the moving parts, and scale the plane, etc!

      Guys, I think it's time...

      I think I have to try one of these things but I am a known techytard so I can't guarantee its quality.

      I think I'll have to cheat too, like Dan did, but I can't just sit here and let you all have fun with my face without me returning the favor.

      Here goes nothing...

        Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

            Dang! It takes forever for the video to be sent to my email so I can upload it to YouTube!

            But in the mean time, I um, couldn't help myself so I made a couple more with just the links.

            In honor of Thanksgiving this month, I present you with The Pilgrim Song

            Well, when I finished that one, I thought you might want to feel more sexy than that, so I moved onto The Chippendales, but I'm not quite certain you guys pulled the sexy off.

            As for the first one I made, Lord only knows how long that one will take to get delivered to me, but I assure you, it'll be a real gas!

            Anyway, I promise I'm done now.

    Pretty good for a techtard, Terra. I don't know why you put my face on the skinny kid with no muscles though. I'm built much better than that little runt.

    Oh wait, this is 2013 isn't it? For a few seconds there I was thinking it was the 1970s again when I did have a good build. Yeah, I'd pay money to have a flat stomach like that again.

        Well, your present avatar would have looked a little funny amidst actual faces. By the way, I didn't get your avatar from here, I got it off your Twitter page.

        Besides all that, you're attractive and it's a good picture, so there. :p

            I can talk dirty too!

            Wanna hear my favorite dirty joke?

            Are you ready?

            Are you sure you can handle it?

            Okay, you asked for it......












            Terra is Latin for Earth...

            The earth is round with more water than ground.

            What does water and earth make?

            Mud.

            So in essence, my name is mud, haha!

            See? Mud is dirty and that's my favorite dirty joke. :p

                Picky, picky, picky!

                I see how you put a different spin on that!

                Perhaps I should have asked, How many people do you know that can say their name literally means mud, and be telling the truth?

                You know what?

                I'm not going to refer to you as HD anymore, but from now on, to me, you are "pick and spin".

      Yup, Lame. All you other guys have names that mean "Fierce Warrior" or "Supreme Amazon Princess"....But my name means Lame.

      There is no justice.

      A Riffle is a short, relatively shallow and coarse-bedded length of stream.

      Yup. Short, shallow, and coarse. :rolleyes: I couldn't have made up anything better.

      I must admit, it's still better than "Lame".

          Dennis..He said it! He did! Horny Devil...not me!

          I'm as innocent as a new born baby. And as bald.....and I also take naps.


          Guys; The way that "Clump of dirt" thing came about is this...

          A little boy in my store, maybe 5 years old...was behaving himself, and was very quiet.

          As we were ringing up the sale to the parents, I leaned over and said "Hi, what's your name?"

          He looked up with a very serious face and said "My name is Brian, it means Brave".

          I thought it was adorable, and I couldn't leave it alone. So I looked down at him and said "My name is Claude, it means Clump of Dirt". Of course, the parents laughed, I laughed, and my wife just rolled her eyes.

          But Brian had no idea what we thought was funny. He was still thinking about "I'm Brian, the Brave".

          And as they walked out the front door, I waved and said "Bye Brian, I'll see you later!"

          And he (I swear this is true) waved back "Bye, I'll see you in Hell!".

          I laughed so hard, a tear ran down my leg.

      Just don't expect me to change your diaper. :rolleyes:

      Actually, it's a rare name (only one in 50,000 families are named Gaskill) in the US, so I'm often asked to spell it. I always say, "as in, the price of gas will kill you."

      That usually draws a laugh and "Oh, that's good." or "That's easy." type of comment.

      Truth be known though, I've never really liked my first, middle, or last name. It is what it is though.

              Dennis; I'll let you in on a little secret. What your name sounds like to you is completely different from what it sounds like to the world. (I know you actually know this, but I'm on a roll)

              A name is just a few sounds strung together. Think of celebrities. Think of all the meaningless names they have, that we now associate as having a cool name.

              Think of the name Dennis Miller. Is there a more boring or common name? But nobody that hears his name says "Dennis Miller? He should change it to Rod Sterlinghouse".

              Think of how silly a name Claude is. But I wouldn't trade it now. Nobody laughs when I say it...and it's memorable. And how many "Claudes" do you know.

              I still think Jenna Talia (Yup, real name) was handed a bad hand at birth...but everyone else has a name that can sound great.

              There's even a speaker with the last name Hogshead. She uses it to make herself memorable.

              Just a thought.

              I thought your middle name could have been Oliver (Oliver Hardy picture purely coincidental). That would have made your initials, DOG, tying in nicely with your avatar . . . and injecting a whole new strand of humour into the thread in the process. Wishful thinking.

              Spoilsport!

    So much hubbub over an offhanded comment about a name!

    I know there's nothing wrong with it, I just never liked it much. I don't like eating fish either, but I can't tell you why. You just like some things and you don't like others. No biggie. I'm pretty much used to it by now.

    @HD - If someone else who uses their real name here would have asked I would have told them my middle name. With you, I couldn't resist because you were asking for my middle when you don't reveal any of yours. Too good an opportunity to pass up.

    So what is your name, anyway?

      Wow. Maybe a name change by deed poll to something less severe, such as Gasinjure, would temper your hackles somewhat.

          Every chance, if they're devil worshippers. Sacrificial slaughters out the backyard after midnight are a clue. And with a surname like yours, I'd tread carefully.

            Dennis isn't so bad when you consider its origins and what it means.

            Dennis is of Greek origin and means 'God of wine' or 'mountain of Zeus'.

            Not too bad, eh?

                My mom disliked her middle name so much she changed it from Ann to Jean.

                It changed her initials from DAM to DJM, haha!

                last night I spent an hour looking up the history of the name Dennis.

                In ancient Greece (OK, I guess it wasn't ancient at the time) there was a general that led a vast army. He conquered vast areas and enslaved prisoners that became slaves to the Greeks. His name was Den. At first, they called him Den, The Destroyer.

                The rallying cry for the oppressed slaves was "Den is a menace to the world!"

                Later, when the slaves were texting each other about the revolt, They shortened the name to.....wait for it....wait for it.....

                "Den is the menace". And that's where "Dennis the Menace" came from. True story.

                Seriously, it took a long time to find this out. Seriously. I'm very serious.

                  Erm . . . right.

                  I won't tell you what I found out about the name "Claude" when I spent an hour researching it next week. It would crush you. Either that or it would crush you. Of course, there's every possibility that the probability of my research is probably improbable.

                  Just like this conversation. :rolleyes:

    I found some interesting meanings of names.



    Joseph
    - he will add, addition, increase, he will enlarge

    Dennis - Thracian god of wine, God of wine, mountain of Zeus

    Claude - persevering, disabled, money, lame, limping

    Terra - Earth, land, soil, goddess of the earth

    Dan - God is my judge, Judgment of God

    Riffle - Partnership, Sense, Other, Passive, Assistance, Acceptance, Intimacy, Peace




    Below are some more interesting facts.

    Daniel. This is a difficult name to define because it defies many boundaries of human perception, let alone various languages.
    In the Old Testament, Daniel was a prophet whose story is told in the Book of
    Daniel. His enemies sent him into the lion's den where God set him free.
    People having the name Riffle are in general originating from United States of America.
    In Roman mythology Terra means goddess of the earth.
    The word money was derived from the French painter Claude Monet

    Now I feel left out.

    My mom used to tell me when I was young that Sally meant Princess. Then I got old enough to look it up and actually FIND it in the American Heritage Dictionary. To charge or attack. sigh.

    I don't like my name at all - it sounds naggy. That's why anyone who knows me calls me Sal. I don't mind that. Don't like going by my married name, but I didn't change it right away when I divorced because I was young enough to think I'd just change it again anyway. Came close a few times (whew - a few brain cells that didn't get burnt). But about the time I reall started to hate the name - that's what everyone knew me by. I still might get a bee in my bonnet and change my whole name. I know the name - it will be on my fiction book. We'll see.

      There again, you're a hero to little 'uns everywhere (albeit a pig:p). Can the Claude's, Riffle's and Terra's of the world say that?

          I asked my wife what "Riffle" meant. She looked it up, and told me "A very used and stained bedsheet in a low class brothel". The crustiness from the layers of stains caused by months of use, creates what's known as a "Riffling effect" in the sheet.

          I'll be honest here....I'm feeling pretty self satisfied right now.
