RobF -> Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:17:32)

I just noticed I only have nine posts to go to reach 500, at which point my membership gets upgraded and I get prizes or something. So, to celebrate, ask me any question about anything and I will answer it. Anything. I know everything. And if I don’t know, I’ll either make something up or just ignore you. No problem.

Ask away.




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:19:25)

They have to be easy questions...

OK. Eight.




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:21:08)

No...Seven.


Ahh, forget it...




Piwin -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:28:24)

What is the average air speed of a laden swallow?




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:37:23)

12 knots.

Unless you’re talking about beer, in which case it’s faster.




Piwin -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:41:17)

How many chickens would it take to kill an elephant?

edit: lol looks like we were editing our posts at the same time [8D]




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:42:33)

Three. Assuming they weren’t properly refrigerated. Also depends on the side of the road.




BarkellWH -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:54:27)

Rob, in an effort to assist you in achieving your upgraded membership, am I correct in assuming your handle "Karnak the Magnificent" is taken from the old Johnny Carson skit where he wore an oversized turban with a jeweled pendant in front?

Bill




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 13:57:26)

Ahhh...finally a question worthy of my towering intellect (not to say Piwin’s questions weren’t good, but they were pretty easy).

The answer is ... tears envelope...blows....

Yes.

RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 14:00:17)

Yes. No. Maybe so.

Many years ago I started a new job and one of the engineers had a grey garbage pail beside his desk. He had taken a black magic marker and scrawled across its side “Ask me! I know everything.”

I immediately knew he was the smartest guy in the place.




Piwin -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 14:08:13)

pffff. Ok ok, a serious question: why didn't the eagles just fly the damn ring to Mount Doom?




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 14:29:52)

The Eagles lost most of their power when they went commercial with Hotel California. If they would have loosened their load over Mt. Doom before that they might have had a chance...instead they chose to take it easy.




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 14:48:56)

And...I do believe this post should make 500.

So, thanks for all the questions. I’ve got to go check my mail...expecting something any day now....maybe it’ll be a T-shirt...



*edit* Huh? Nothing happened. Still ‘Aficionado’. WTF???




Piwin -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 15:01:57)

Maybe it only shows up when you post number 501?




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 15:17:44)

Only one way to find out....


*edit* Piwin, you were right!! [:)] Wonder what's going to be on the t-shirt....[sm=Smiley Guitar.gif]




gerundino63 -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 15:20:14)

Hi Rob,

Were comes your avatar picture come from? And who is it?




gerundino63 -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 15:23:31)

BTW. You made me notice I hit the 1500 posts soon.....think I get a facemask to shut up...[:D]

That would be Segovia during one of his concerts at the fabled Filmore West. I believe he was opening for “Cream” and was using some of Eric’s rig for the show.

Apparently, he was vamping on “Sunshine of Your Love” when the picture was taken. Those were the days of extended guitar solos, I’m not even sure his set consisted of any more than that one piece. As it was, it went on for over 3 1/2 hours!


P.S. the photoshop wasn’t mine. I keep hoping whoever created it doesn’t like flamenco...

It’ll take more than a facemask to shut me up! [:D]

Hear me well, O gifted one! Let not your achievement result in descent into being a mere mortal again. Your all-knowing omnipotence (which passeth all understanding) is needed on this forum which, prior to your appearance, was as a simple chalk board to those of us who are mere scribblers.

Bill, the Scribbler

Welcome to the club. With only 11,610 posts I’m still trying to get to “gold member”, but it will be a while I guess.




Piwin -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 17:15:21)

Hey RobF, if we team up and add our "points" we're only about 8,500 away from Ricardo. Together we can do this and catch up! [:D][8D]




RobF -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 5 2020 17:23:15)

He’ll be looking over his shoulders now! [:D]

Mind you, he averages about 35 posts a day alone on patiently responding to a certain devilishly handsome fellow’s questions in unrelated threads*...not to mention the regular posts, so this might prove to be a bit of a challenge!

*to be sure, the whole Foro benefits from some of those discussions.




JasonM -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 6 2020 2:54:17)

5000 post on Condes plus another 5000 post arguing with Zetta [:D]

Hats off to you senior Roberto




estebanana -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 26 2020 13:11:32)

You know why I have so many posts? It’s because I never fuvking stop talking.

But my upgrade from ensign lowlife to fellow was done by Ron before I reached the required number of posts to make fellow. He did it like general conferring rank on a low tier grunt.

Tonight I’m going to have a drink to Ron. I miss the old bastard.

The time he posted the photo of the golden retriever with the dildo was the day I spit coffee on my computer thus killing it. I never held it against Ron, the computer that is, not the dildo.




estebanana -> RE: Karnak the Magnificent (Jun. 26 2020 13:14:02)

I’m going to break 8000 posts this year and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. And furthermore half of those will be drunk posts, which will be difficult because I don’t drink during the week anymore.

Ok that was a lie.

We all do Stephen, last week I was searching for som stuff and stumbled on some posts of him. Kept on reading for a while and smiled. Good Ol’ Days.

Wonder sometimes how big the tree is from britguy....
