The Dink Network

An attempt at humour in the era of Dink.

There was once a kingdom. They had a feudal caste system. They had many knights and pages. There was a vast mountain range to the south called the "Grand Tetons". Well .. It was only half vast. To the north was the forbidding chain of mountains called the "Yellow Fingers".

I suppose the suns radiance created a muted yellowish glow upon the peaks. The mountains were tall spires that gave the impression of hands and fingers reaching skyward. From the spires, a horde of evil warriors spewed forth. The King sent his knights to do battle with them. The journey was a least 50 miles on foot. A long walk by any standard. None of the brave knights returned. He sent more Knights. Same results. The Knights were gone. More evil warriors poured from the northern spires. In desperation The King asked for volunteers. A lowly Page came forth and offered his services.

The King, aghast, but desperate, offered him weapons from his armory. The Page smiled and declined. He would go into battle with his broom. The Page left to the north amidst the cheers of the populace. He proceeded to make a "clean sweep" of the northern invaders, and send the evil horde packing, never to be seen again.

Of course the moral of the Story:
"Let your Pages do the walking thru the Yellow Fingers"

Be well...

Right...

Yeaaah, I totally don't get it. Does this have something to do with teeth hygiene?

I guess not every country has the Yellow Pages

I know what yellow pages are, but I still don't get it. That would most likely be because I'm an idiot.

There's an advert here - for the yellow pages - 'Let your fingers do the walking' (meaning not you)

...

lol? >_>

I don't know... But yellow fingers definitely don't sound like the way to go...

Skull, I have read your posts here, you are definately not an idiot. You have been here for a long time, and have made many contributions to this fine forum. I meant no disrepect to anyone here. The moral pokes fun at an old commercial, here in the US. For the Yellow pages ad ... As MsDink pointed out (thank you).

Be well,

Matt

ps: please continue your fine work here.

Lol, . teeth hygiene... no. I was merely presenting humour to fit into the time frame
of the Dink era. I was wondering if anyone else had humour to share from about the
globe that might bring us closer together. We can share our humour and perhaps that
would bring us closer to understanding each other without bloodshed.
There are actually two other breakpoints of humour (US style, in this missive). One is a
play on words.. a subtle shift from the derogatory. One is relevant to the broom.

Be well,
Matt

ps: I did say somewhere it was an attempt at humour?

Your unending politeness is scaring me D:

its irrational.... but can someone please insult the crap out of me?

Your unending politeness is scaring me D:

Agreed. I bet my ass that someone is gonna say Mattie's my double account soon.

EDIT: Oh and Mattie, we're a very weird group *cough*cult*cough* so you probably don't want to take everything we say very seriously.

Lol, nice to meet ya Matt.

Yeh, my eyes hurt like crazy when Matt is around. Snail-mail/letter templates doesn't fit on the internet.

EDIT: You know, those with envelopes and stamps and stuff.

I like him already. Reminds me of...

The Vault Dweller

Hey, it's the magical guy from the pizza-land. Haven't seen you in a while!

Weird joke, but I enjoyed it. Nice to see another polite person on the forum.
May Fortune follow you.

Hey, that's an old picture of me. From my elementary school days.
Thank you,

Be well,
Matt

nice painting!!

Well, they didn't really have cameras in those days. I must say just sitting
in that old chair was very trying. The worst part was having to sit for the
sketch.. then going back later so the artist could paint by numbers. After all
that work.. someone sat down and invented an air conditioner to keep the clients
cool while sitting for their portraits, and to keep the make-up from running.

Then of course, the photographers invented searing hot lights. This was great,
for their new cameras. It melted a lot of people before they invented flashbulbs.

So, they invented the copier. It was much faster.

This is just so much fun....

Be well,
Matt

Polite and imaginative. I like you.

Thanks...

Be well,
Matt

Nice to meet you Duckhater!

Be well,
Matt

Thank god for that air conditioner, it really made painting a lot more enjoyable.

"Why would Badgers need computers when they have telepathy?" - SabreTrout"
...Thats the quote as i write this out. Anyone got the answer lol?

They need computers cause you can't use telepathy to play Dink Smallwood.

Perhaps, but what happens when telepathy evolves to include the ability to use technology with your mind?

In fact, new plan; Let's just eat badgers.

I thank Quiztis for the nice post, and sharing my old picture.
I thought I might provide a newer photo. In fairness I must say
I have aged gracefully. I have so many questions and I am sure
all of you have many answers.

Where best to post this (these). Any suggestions as to the most
appropriate file format?

Be well,
Matt

ps: thanks for your patience.

imageshack, photobucjet, or tinypic. Then just share the link(s).

Bullshoot - schnapper is the only one I know by heart
The dink network - crashing servers since 1998 - unknown.

Do you mean we cannot post directly here into the forum?
I do not have a problem with that. None of those pose a
problem.

And thank you for your quick and timely reponse.
It is greatly appreciated.

As always...

Be well,
Matt

Mattie, does your last name start with a V?

No it starts with a "C".

Be Well,
