The REO Lounge - Part III

[CrimsonJack]

I can't tell you how many times I have been told in private that we sound like a bunch of raving lunatics. Sometimes, I've almost had to wonder if maybe we're just weird....

It's a relief to be reminded that we're okay...just passionate. Welcome aboard, CrimsonJack.

Nah, half the reason I was willing to give a REO a shot was how universally friendly everyone was when talking them up. Well, that and the fact that I've never heard anything negative about the REO. I actually held off for a bit because I thought it just sounded too good to be true!

Becky is staying with her sister who is convalescing. Her sister is what I would consider to be a technophobe...won't allow computers in the house for fear of radiation sickness...or something like that. She's been trying to get to a computer when she can...but....

Am I right? Heck I'm not sure whether I'm coming or going. Although, I will admit, I've been wondering how she is doing.

I believe you're right Lisa! I just couldn't remember what she's said!

The Reo is the only thing I've found that negates that old saying!

 

[CrimsonJack]

Praise the Reo! You've seen the light!

Seriously! It's ridiculous! I've had the thing for a matter of hours and I'm already thinking about how I'm gonna afford a Grand in Patriots colors.

Okay. Up until recently I kind of thought of REO folks in sort of the same light as Jehovah's Witnesses (hear me out on this). Earnest, polite folks that popped up in threads, proclaimed their faith to the heathens with shining faces and good intentions, then quietly went along their merry way. A couple hours ago I got home from work early and took the mini I got off the classies out of the vapemailbox (cause really, nothing else good comes out of the thing), screwed on an atty and gave it a whirl. I get it now. I'm on board. Ya'll are stuck with me now.

Wait til you get your Reo Secret Decoder Ring! Then you'll know the real story.

Thank you Lisa dear...

I'm guessing you're having a rough go of it this month? (and i hope I'm guessing wrongly)

If it's an ad for Ovaltine, I'm out!

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

I think you and him would have hit it off very well!

Agreed...they would have kept me busy, that's for sure.

You DO know about the magic porkypine dust that infuses these mods, right?

in my younger days whenever i'd spot those kind of folks coming up, i would answer the door totally nude...

later on, i finally grew up and matured, and only had a sign next to my door that read

"Door-to-door peddlers will be treated rudely...
... door-to-door religion peddlers will be shot"


so, no, we're not all fanatics

Ummm...Miss Kay...ummm...maybe it's just me...but your new signature...it sounds a little dirty.

​LOL!

That's funny...
When they come to our door (DH's computer with music catalog is right there) we blast music. Songs of Choice: Slayer - "Reign in Blood" or Pantera - ".......*** Hostile" whichever one is easier to get playing faster.

Oh, it's a play on 'Beam me up Scotty"...LOL...OK, I did NOT get that.
Maybe because in my head I heard it in a breathy voice.

Welcome Jack. I'm Ed. Now that you're here I feel its only fair to warn you that.....

"You're travelling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead - your next stop, the Reo Zone!"

 

[oldbroad]

Ed...it' so good seeing you here for such a long time tonight! I missed you

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

Nah, Ed...just busy...lost a few days of production due to a bank snafu, had to redesign the project to meet new budget constraints and stay on track. Any other time it would have been fine, but not proofing week. One of the books is great...the other, well....lets just say it "looks" great...no one will know that it's far from solid. You win some, you lose some.
