I wonder if enough time's passed that Frank would consider a "coffee room" link on PW pointing here for more casual, non-piano related discussion?
Not unless there's a buck in it for him.

Seems strange, he's had the whole thing for years without making a buck...
You think all that advertizing he's making people have to wade through he's doing for free?

I'm still a regular lurker, so there's at least enough traffic to make it worth while to check in. (Not that my lurking means much, but hey it is what it is.)
Me too - I try to comment enough to where you guys won't completely forget about me :)

Not at all, but I know a thing or two about the ad based revenue model for website, and I know a thing or two about how much traffic it takes.
So one could say I know a thing or two about the potential upper and lower end revenues of such a site (based on its alexa ratings).

So... you're saying he probably bit himself in the a$$ when he threw us out of the coffee room. I mean, there was a LOT of traffic generated right there.

Well....this site has over 1,000,000 posts. Fat Shirley's and WTF hve a pretty decent number, so that everything added together ought to top 1.5M.

Beleive it, or not, that would top the post count at PW.

I'm sure Zetaboards could tell us their current CPM and exactly how much ad revenue we've generated for them.
They wouldn't want to see us go.

omg that sounds so important.

that said, son #2 woke up early to go take a pee outside. I said "Soon it's going to be too cold to do that: he said sleepily "Don't worry mom, my dick is like hot logs in the morning".

What do you say to something like that?

i said nothing.

I cannot imagine saying that to my Mom. Ever. For any reason.

But, for anyone who is looking, that might be the most sigworthy thing ever posted here. :lol2:

Ha. Kids. Gotta love them.

You know what I like about this place? It's parents who freely admit to NOT having 'angels of perfection' as children.

I know. It's just such a perfect phrase... almost lyrical.

"Don't worry mom, my dick is like hot logs in the morning".

You gotta love it.

Oh, and by the way, apple - it's almost never too cold to whiz outside. But I prefer nighttime with the dog.

Did I ever tell you just how dark my back yard is at night?

Yup - I remember checking out the site states after the coffee room was banned. Can't find the stats since, but here's at least the 2 months poster-CR:

Ha! A friend of ours grew up in northern Minnesooota, in the Da Range, outside of Tower, MN. He loved to go out to the back porch for his morning whiz.

In the winter, he would try to write his name in the snow. Thank goodness his name was only John, not something longer. :lol2:

I guess he has morning wood...or in his case morning logs. Now at least you know why the whole house is shaking at 6:30.
