SiobhanP,
We never got you to admit your hidden message. We know you said "no message" but clearly that was a cry for help.

Come on Fodorites, let's figure out the mystery. So far we know that Ben Hines and Binesh and Bin Laden are working in a clandestine operation. TESTING? Testing what?

Iregeo Apr 19th, 2004 11:14 AM

tomboy, I am honored that when posting your title, you chose to include my suggestion of a colon between Testing and No Message...BUT... where are your "close quotes"?

Marilyn Apr 19th, 2004 11:16 AM

Yes, where ARE those close quotes? Hmmm? Have they been moved across the border to a neighboring website? We'll be sending inspectors soon.

The Case of the Missing Close Quote

Possibly spirited over the border at night. Or something more sinister. I'll get my men on it right away.

tomboy Apr 19th, 2004 06:13 PM

If there are too many in one place, that would be "close quoters".


Mooooooaaaan

Perhaps the above mentioned "text police" have been automated; hence each subsequent message should contain some travel words to throw off the machine; for example, Rudesheim to Munich.

Frivolous fluff faded fast. (Notice the clever alliteration) Shall we try for 100 on this thread?

Testing with a message....Travel is my passion..

FainaAgain Apr 20th, 2004 12:20 PM

I think somebody mentioned Tiramisu on that thread. This would drive anybody crazy! No wonder hungry Fodor's did it in! :-\

capo Apr 20th, 2004 12:21 PM

Testingham sounds like it could be a village in England.

People who are driving and successfully pass Testingham go to Smartford.

Those who do not go to Dorking (an actual town.)

Lets Them eat Tiramisu....Italy best Invention..

Testingham is a mighty fattening way to earn one's living.

Pilchard Apr 20th, 2004 12:34 PM

This didn't make it on to the original thread, so I'll try again:

For some odd reason the original thread reminded me of Steven Wright's insomniac, agnostic, dyslexic friend who lies awake at night wondering if there is a dog.

elle Apr 20th, 2004 12:40 PM

My dog would enjoy Testingham. . .

At about the same time as the appearance of this test, another message title appeared - something about freedom of speech - no responses, no date. I clicked on it - no messages. Suddenly, all disappeared as I was looking at the blank message page. Totally gone - no title, no messages, nothing. Did anyone else see it, even for a second as I did?

capo Apr 20th, 2004 12:50 PM

elle... :)

Check out Roswell, New Mexico

Or the Bermuda Triangle/\

I was Testingham in my own kitchen on Easter Sunday. (I didn't want to serve Spam, and the Knights who say "ni" were NOT to be trifled with, if you get my meaning, nudge, nudge, wink, wink!)

Well, BC, a nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat, nudge nudge, wink wink.

Have you tried the Spam, eggs, sausage, and Spam? It's not got a lot of Spam in it.

Andrewmac Apr 21st, 2004 07:41 AM

If it's Spam you're after, come and clean out my Inbox!
