Fantastic word game

There was a pretty good "Office" on last night, raptus, but I can't for the life of me figure out [except for the fact it's fictional, yeah, I know] why no one doesn't beat the living snot out of Michael Scott, as his incompetence distracts from the funny/zaniness of the rest of the characters and makes them look apathetic and ignorant for not teaching him a lesson.

Does he have incriminating pictures of everyone in his life or something?
 
Young quad's derrier was often whacked by the nuns for putting on a kumbaya act while pulling pranks.


Incriminating pictures of everyone in his life? Sheesh, and I thought it was bad that someone tried unsuccessfuly to emulate the library work that Silkie did some years back. But the question is this, band campers: Did you ever record a program and then write it out verbatim? I mean complete with station IDs, every word spoken by a host(ess), every jingle, every voiceover, every commercial, every weather forecast, every everything? If so, did you do it for lack of having a life?
 
While pulling pranks on my friends and compiling TPS Reports stats each Saturday, I spend twenty or so minutes transcribing the week's dj shifts on my favorite hip hop station, and I save a lot of time because I have all the "aaights," "yeah yeah," "shout outs," and such stored on the function keys.
 
The function keys can be useful tools, as are photocopiers for keeping your copies, so that you know when everything you transcribed is sent to the host(ess) who tells the world, "they know who we are, and they know what we're doing!".

It's really quite a thing to behold when the "important" people are so important that they entrust transcripts of their destroyers to their destroyers in the marvelous band camp game, but let it never be said that any of ours forgot all about the library.
 
"They know who we are, and they know what we're doing!" yet they still show up year after year in greater and greater numbers.


Ok, kids, this is it. Fall Session starts this weekend. I expect to see all of you somewhere around band camp this holiday weekend. I'll be at registration for the first hour or so (starting 7am) and then visiting each welcoming area throughout the day. Staff at the Dining Hall could use extra help following lunch.
 
Greater and greater numbers, having heard of the great baseball card caper, will arrive with their own collections of cards with stale bubblegum in the card packaging.
 
Stale bubblegum in the card packaging might be worth almost as much as the cards themselves.


Good evening, Miss Silkie ;o)
 
The cards themselves, however, are vintage quality with many having been sealed for preservation forever.

Hello there, WMC. :)
 
TFWG Band Camp Hobby Shoppe is unsurpassed in collections and projects of any number of spare time endeavors.
 
A mental health day is needed by all from time to time.

I said several pages ago I was going to stop commenting on the way folks are forming their sentences. However, IF I were
going to make a comment, I would say the "run-on sentence" is slowly returning to TFWG.
 
Concert tickets were something you had to go purchase in person in the days before computers and I can remember many a fun night camping out in line the night before they went on sale just to make sure you could get a hold of a few choice seats.
 
Bucks and cents are difficult to come by for many people in this rough economy.


Greetings from the Band Camp WiFi Center. Everything has been going smoothly and thanks to everyone who has/is/will be dropping by to offer assistance. Special thanks to The Lovely Anyacat who hosted two travel tip symposiums earlier today. Both were overflowing in attendance.

This rough economy has really had a negative impact on me, now we are making like Tom and "Cruising" along.


Stuart, my fine young friend, you can't complain about long run-on sentences when you do it yourself (the run-on part anyway). You have two sentences there (and we've discussed this in the past). Add a 'but' in there between 'me' and 'now' and you have one sentence. Unfortunately, for some reason, this is a major problem not only with yourself but with kenrayc and others as well. As I've said many times before, you can't write the same way you talk. We need to pay attention to these things. I'm quite sure Mr. Allen would be quite displeased, Stuart.

And, now, on with the show:


Along came the spider and sat down beside her eating her curds and whey.



I'm pretty darned sure we've never used 'whey' in a TFWG clue but Silkie, our head librarian, researcher and mixologist, can check on that.
