Introductions and Welcomes

[Bogtrotter07]

Welcome to the site. I too was a long time lurker (mostly because I was at sea) and transitioning to a poster with this great group of fans has been really rewarding. Hope you enjoy your time here and welcome again!

Just saw this post. Andy is right! And so one is better than Andy at swabbing the poop-deck!

Hope this the right spot,

Longtime lurker of the boards, finally decided to make an account.

I'm drunk and uninspired so I used my dog's name as my username

Cheers

Welcome! You'll fit right in.

Have some reps for an excellent post. Oh, and some worthless V-bucks.

Edit: You're sh*t out of luck. vbPlaza seems to be down for me. I'll getcha later.

You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth. I hooked him up. How could I not? His name is Meatloaf.

Hi all! New here.

Ahhh.... The first post!

Welcome, but as a Yankee's fan I can tell you your name sucks!

That's no way to go through life. Where do I sign up?

Welcome!

What do you do for a living? Age? Married? Like Beer? Favorite pro teams?

Anything else?

 

[BdaBest@nd]

Retired military, going back to school, in my 40's, married with children, LOVE beer, not a huge pro football fan but my pro baseball team is the Dodger's and pro basketball team is the Laker's.

Awesome, what branch were you in? What are you going back to school for? Are you in Southern California? I can go with the Lakers but we wont agree on the Dodgers.

I'm currently in the Navy myself so its always good to have more military on the boards.

I would love to hear the Canadians story. For some reason the guy intrigues the hell out of me. Whether it's calling his mom about suspensions, calling in sick to work over 20 year old boys or for whatever reason working on a Saturday. Couver I love your pride and love for ND, But I really want to know more about you so I hope you see this post

 

[BdaBest@nd]

I retired from the Army and decided to get my MBA. I am from So. Cal but live in SB part time for school. Where are you stationed?

Greetings and hallucinations to the Faithful! 4-8 sounds more like a drinking/forgetting season than a football season and let's never be there again. I have been lurking the board for over a year now and really enjoy the banter... some very educational, some very frustrating and some just plain arse funny. I'm from Alberta, Canada and was fortunate enough to make my first pilgrimage to ND in 2015 for the USC game. It won't be my last! Cheers, and Go Irish!!

 

[IrishLion]

We're being invaded by the Canadians

Welcome aboard Greenore

 

[Meatloaf]

We're gonna need to add a Best Canadian category to the Envies. Welcome!

 

[GATTACA!]

We're going international boys

Welcome to you. You say you attended the 2015 USC game. I was at that game too. Did you happen to check out the Trumpets Under the Dome?

Put up a fireWALL to keep these Canadehhians out!

Da-da-DA

 

[Greenore]

I vote ND Fan Vancouver... those are, and always will be, some big shoes to fill!

Canadians are always so polite!

Except for Quebec-ians...Quebecois...when their software isn't working at a Flying J Fuel Mart. I talked to some pretty irate people years ago when I did their support, and I'm pretty sure they cussed me out in French.

[Greenore]

LOL, the language/culture difference tends to raise some suspicion, but I've always found them to be good people. I think faulty software tends to paint us all with a pretty unflattering profile. I have been told this many times by co-workers. Cheers!

Welcome aboard Greenore

Somebody tell Trump we'll need a wall on the north side.

Welcome Greenore.

Welcome Greenore.

Thanks so much all!!!

No wall! Travel the U.S. quite a bit and can't think of a better neighbor (spelling?). Love Chicago, NYC, Hilton Head, all of Texas and especially Maui. Hope to make it back to South Bend next year... a magical experience. Cheers!

It won't help.

[ND87]

Longgggg time (daily) lurker, first or second-time poster.
Class of '87. Suffered thru Faust.

Studied engineering, was awful at and hated it, have worked (mostly self-employed) in the art business since 1993.

I never post because you guys are all way more knowledgeable about almost every topic I read, particularly, you know, football.

I don't go to games because, post-graduation, they have lost every time I have. You're welcome.

I've lived in Detroit Metro, Chicago, Philly and now northern UT.

I miss (early) bambi/Neuter. I miss OMM always.

I think the Wooden Spoon thread is comedic genius.

I've had lots of advice for Koon...but it wasn't worth logging in, knowing he wouldn't take it.

I really want wizard's pepper-basil pork recipe.

that's all for now.

What's your tail status? Were you born with one? If so, did they cut it off at the hospital like Wiz, or did you keep it?

Welcome back!

 

[ulukinatme]

Welcome back. You'll find your introductory vBucks in your PMs. Sad that you graduated the year before our last NC! Based on your game history, maybe you got out at the right time?

Holy Crap! 100B vbucks?! If only I had any clue how to use them. But thanks.

ulukin: thanks for the clover. And I was burnt on NDFB when I graduated... didn't really care again until the 00's. Crappy time to start.

Wooly - Thanks for the welcome-back... aren't we ALL born with a TAILbone? so, not a big stretch to think of Wiz with lagniappe.

I DO have a Q: when viewing the eating/cooking thread as a guest, there are 100+ pages... but logged in, only like 19. some setting I can change?

Go to User CP -> Edit Options -> Edit Thread Display Options -> Number of Posts to Show Per Page. That's likely why you have a different number of pages as a Guest.

As far as vBucks, they're mostly useless. You can buy some changes to your user profile, like change your User Title, or bold your User Name, it's all found here: http://www.irishenvy.com/forums/vbplaza.php. Mostly people use vBucks to do vBetting in the Golden Shamrock Sports Book forum. Any games from NFL to College Basketball are included, not just ND games. Can make watching games a little bit more fun: http://www.irishenvy.com/forums/golden-shamrock-sports-book/
