That's happened to me on a couple of occasions. Don't worry, Beesley probably went back to dreaming about a certain female dog the second you left.

I know how you can pass the time! Create alter egos on public message boards. Because sometimes the anonymity of a screen name is not enough! Don't you just love it when adults feel the need to act like children? I wish I had THAT much time on my hands!!

People must really have no life to go and do things like that. If I had that much time on my hands I'd nap all day, pick my nose, or play with my dogs!

Is there an alter ego poster that I am not aware of? Or more importantly....If you were to make an alter ego poster, what would you name it?

I took naps everyday when I was still in school. I didn't realize how much I missed them until I started working again in April lol

some new posters have popped up in the patricia mcconnell thread that mak started, that may be what she's referring to.

my guess is that they're not regular posters making new accounts though - they're probably people who read the trackback on mcconnell's blog.

the site mods can find out for sure, and my guess is they've already checked.

Thanks groar. I didn't read the Patricia McConnell thread, because I haven't a clue who she is...

one of them has now admitted to being the new account of a regular poster, but they're arguing mak's side so :P

and you should check out her books, they're pretty good!

Alter egos, because some people have way too much free time on their hands!
