It's such a fleeting "moment" after all ...

It's funny, but I'm usualy the "member of the moment" over at our test MB.

Of course Scott and I are the only members, so I guess that helps.

And I think that's unfair!

Actually I've even seen you listed here, Gary, as the member of the moment. I've never caught myself in the listing though. The title does seem to rotate through the whole membership roll so sooner or later everyone will have their chance to shine. So make it worth it! Add something to your profile to make it stand out.

When I went to Homecoming my senior year of high school, my date and I double dated with another couple. Julie and Jon were clearly very much in love, and were that night, but were also giddy beyond reason when we went out to eat. I wondered what was going on, but held my tongue. My date Kathy was unfazed by it.

Fast forward three months, to the January start of the new semester. Julie didn't show up for the senior class session in physics. I remarked at her not being there. Kathy gave me her best oh-you-clueless-twit look (yep, we hadn't kept dating) and explained to me that Julie had been ... married the night before. A very private ceremony. And that she was expecting a child in June, and had left school to be tutored for the final semester. Apparently she and Jon had done *ahem* far more than simply get dressed up for dinner and the dance, three months before.

Everybody in our circle knew it all for weeks, except me. Some friends! It took about ten minutes, but I picked up my jaw from the floor of Mr. Gesiriech's physics lab and got on with my life. (This was a white-bread suburban high school, by the way. Yes, it's a dime-a-dozen tale many places, but not there, in the '70s.)

Why am I telling you all this? No particular reason, except I like to talk (no, really ?!?) and I'm getting a touch of the same feeling now. Why do you all seem to know what the hell you're talking about, with this Member of the Minute whatever, and I don't? {g}

PS. I realized the other day that Julie's little girl is just getting out of graduate school this month. That's really why I thought of it. Boy, I feel old *sigh*

LOL!

Giggle! Click on the "directory" link at the top of the page, Grey. That should help you out of your fog of confusion.

(I will daresay that Shikari could have pointed the way to the "Member of the Moment," had you asked nicely.)

Well, hell's bells! I should learn to scroll down the page, shouldn't I?

Does this thing pick someone at random each time you access the page?

And since this shows "actual" ranks, not custom titles, I wonder if the brackets for who gets what rank are posted anywhere. I haven't seen those, either. Still don't feel like I'm among the cool kids {g}

UPDATE: The Member of the Moment is The Mighty Quinn M.! An alt i.d.? Member of the Moment?

That's just... just UNACCEPTABLE! Oh, the injustice of it all! Oh the pain!

Scott, don't think I haven't noticed that Lightning Lad, member # 2 just happens to be m.o.m. right now. Just remember, you and Gary are always the "members of the moment" in our hearts, so no need to rig the game!

I think "Member of the Moment" should be changed to "Member of the Millenium." Even though it only lasts for a moment, this sounds more impressive. And if my name should appear in it, well then, it would have the added splendid bonus of accuracy.

Damn! And I missed it. I think I'm the only ID I've never caught there. But you are right. I remove myself from consideration of the MotM.

Shout out to the Member of the Moment, kenaustin!

(I think this is the first time I ever looked at the directory when it was someone I knew.)

Not that I'm complaining, but...

How'd that happen?

Posted by KryptonKid on :
 
I have been here 9 years and never looked at the directory. It feels akin to not registering to vote or something.

I am Ambassador of the Moment. I can process your free application for a small fee.

I remember once someone (Cramer, I think) mentioned in the shoutbox that the member of the moment was Time-Teller Lad. That was kind of appropriate.

For de record:

What is the Member of the Moment?

The Member of the Moment is a box that may be displayed on the Community Directory page. Every hour, a new Member of the Moment is chosen and displayed on the Community Directory page. The selection is completely random, and is not controlled by the board administration.

On average, each user (ID) will be MotM between five and six times a year
