And we forgot to give props to the guys that will tell us our knowledge of lightbulbs is wrong. And then they will proceed, point by point, to show us their superiority in knowledge of all things lightbulbs. :D Us dumb, unedumacated masses are very beholding to them..

How many CRT members does it take to change a light bulb?

One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed
Fourteen to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently
Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs
One to move it to the lighting section
Two to argue, then move it to the electrical section
Four to request pictures of the light bulb
Seven to point out spelling/ grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs
Five to flame the spell checkers
Three to correct spelling/ grammar flames
Four to complain the original poster paid too much for the light bulb
Nine to discuss whether paying too much for the light bulb will drive up prices for everyone else buying light bulbs
Six to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another six to condemn those six as stupid
Two industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"
Fifteen know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct
Nineteen to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum
Eleven to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum
Thirty-six to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty
Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs
Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URLs
Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group
Thirteen to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "+1"
Two to post to the group that they will no longer post because they were offended and cannot handle the light bulb controversy
Five to say, "Didn't we go through this already a few months ago?"
Nine to say, "Do a search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs"

One forum lurker to respond to the original post eight months from now and start it all over again... :?


That right there was worth the price of admission. The best post on any forum, ever.

Generation gaps have changed the forum. Few members post that were in the original members of CRT and CRS.... the prelude to this venue. Not that it is a bad thing because sites evolve into different topics. Over a decade ago, the main emphasis was on the joyful land land of CR that older members found as their special place to escape the woes of U.S. gringas.

We were solo travelers, many of us, that found a raisin in the sun. A place that we felt welcomed as long as we treated the inhabitants with respect and of course yank dollars.

I was fortunate to have found that in 1971. Other members came in the 80's, 90's and after 2000. In 2001 a small group of adventurers begin to meet and form an alliance of men who appreciated this land some call OZ.

It certainly opened the options for mongers to travel to other parts of this world. Sort of a stepping off place for many who enjoyed travel and the ladies.

Hats off to those younger dudes who can withstand the many hours of travel to foreign ports that are 8 to 30 hours away. Go for it. I'll just sit back in my easy chair and remember the remarkable times I spent in CR and other countries not so far.

Thought I would post a video about my generation and the recline of K*ds today. Look at it if you care to.

Idk. I was born in 1971.

I miss post from Projilo. I saw him downtown about two years ago and he gave me some sage advice. "If a girl offers to lick your ass, Let her do it."

See, I just cant find that kind of advice in the WSJ. :D

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. There's only so much you can read about SL,HLH and the DR. People posted about everything when they were going everywhere. The focus of the board here has shrunk, and so people post less. Why should they make yet another post about the same old thing? People talked actively about tours, restaurants, local news, and most importantly, girls from everywhere in SJO and Jaco, and even occasionally Liberia or Limon. It now caters to the lowest common denominator, and by that I specifically do NOT mean the people that are here, but rather the easiest and most accessible chica experience. With the dearth of adventurers so suffers the content of the board. I wish we'd see more of that again.

That does not mean that the guys here are not a great bunch of guys, but it's definitely a group less "well traveled" within the city. I think that's reflected in the evolution of the CRT sponsors too. The focus is very much narrowed.

Still so many whores to go round south of the borda cause few countries have welfare. :D
