A question about our community...

Is the size (because it's always a size thing) of our group enough? Would you like to see more people in here? How many is enough? I've often wanted to see our area buzzing with excitement, news, fun and so much more, but what would be the 'overload' number in your mind?

I contribute when I have something to say. That being said, how would you go about increasing the size of the community if the community wanted to grow?

How would we go about attracting people to our little corner of the world? I'd love to see more conversations here, and to also meet new friends. The question becomes how to go about it...

print up some cards and leave them at places where people who might be interested in this little corner of the world might be?

Threaten them with a Skittles-patented-ass-kicking if they don't get over here.

Of course the servers probably couldn't handle that many people at once.

A white man walks into a bathroom and stands in front of the urinal next to a Jamaican man. As the white man is emptying his bladder, the Jamaican glances over and notices the letters NJM tattooed on the white mans shlong.

The Jamaican asks, "What does that stand for, man?" The white man embaresingly replys, "Those are my initals i got done after one crazy drunken night." The Jamaican excitedly shows his own cock, which has the letters WMTAHNY on it. The white man asks, "wow you have one too, those cant be your initals though, what does it mean?"?

The Jamaican throws back his head in laughter and pats the white man on the back as he exclaims, "Yea man, when i get me an erection it says "Welcome To Jamaica, Have a Nice Day"
