the Joeybee 700 club initiation thread

[Cheswick2.0]

Okay Joeybee, to be accepted into the 700 club, you must perform the following tasks.

Your first task is to go outside and sing The Old Rugged Cross. You don't have to sing the whole thing, any of the following verses will sufice, but you must do it now and you must sing it above a whisper. If you don't know the tune, you can always sing "Jesus Loves Me".

Here are the lyrics:

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suffering and shame;
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.

Refrain
So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary.

In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see,
For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me some day to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.

[goobergunch]

8. You can do the honors.

Although I did say he had to eat soybeans until he got out...

[joeybee12]

2. I'm going now to do it!

It will be my pleasure!

My neigborhood is sparse--no danger of anyone hearing me, if that was the intention!

[Cheswick2.0]

3. that's okay, sing away

[zekeson]

4. LOUDER!

We can't heeeaar you!!!

[joeybee12]

6. I'm done...

...but I scared my roommate's Boxer!

Next task?

[Cheswick2.0]

7. do you have a digital camera?

?

[joeybee12]

9. No...

...and I'm guessing that's a good thing at this point!

[Cheswick2.0]

10. well we have to forgive you for that I guess....2nd assignment

2nd assignment is to find a pic (should be you but can't be helped)of someone who looks like the holy and chaste version of you and post it here. You can google gospel singer or something, use your creativity!

[joeybee12]

11. I'm having trouble doing that!

Sorry, guess I'm not computer literate enough--some help, please!

Thanks,

[goobergunch]

12. Google Image Search

http://www.google.com/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=

[joeybee12]

15. Figured that out, but my problem is cutting and pasting!

[disgruntella]

16. you can do it, man!

I went through my initiation this morning. It was BAD ASS. I'm a DUer FOR LIFE.

[Cheswick2.0]

26. try this

can you highlight the url and then right click on it and copy?

[Cheswick2.0]

13. just type in gospel singer and hit the images option

or here you go

http://images.google.com/images?q=gospel+singer&ie=ISO-8859-1&hl=en

[joeybee12]

17. I get to the images ok,

but copying them to here is a problem. Is it because I have AOL???

[Cheswick2.0]

18. oooops sorry, here are more directions

when you find and image you want to use, right click on it which will open a box. Look for where it says properties and then click on that word. Then you will see a Url, copy it and past it here in a respose window.

[joeybee12]

20. Doesn't do it under properties--the system locks up on me--think it's AOL

[goobergunch]

http://www.pathguy.com/dolphlundgren5.jpg

[joeybee12]

24. It won't let me copy the url

Right or left clicking, pulling down from the menu--nada.

I think you're gonna kick me out!

[Cheswick2.0]

27. well then type the URL into your response window

copy it down on paper and type it in

[joeybee12]

28. Ok--here it is....

[Cheswick2.0]

30. fabulous, I love it

It is a whole new 700 club division!

Look below and you will find your next task.

[joeybee12]

32. All I'm gonna say is....

...I also have blonde hair.

And I've seen Dolph naked.

[TrogL]

14. When did we start hazing?

[Cheswick2.0]

19. we have alway had initiations, did we miss you?

? :evilgrin:

[Darranar]

21. You missed me...

of course, most of my posts were in the FA/NS dungeon.

[Cheswick2.0]

22. Darn, oh well too late now

I see you made it the the 1000+ safety zone!

[Lefty48197]

25. I heard the 700 club was dissolved

and replaced by the 800 club. But that's just what I heard.

[Cheswick2.0]

29. assignment 3

you must write a prayer to Pat Robertson. For instance you can ask him for a special favor. Four or five lines are sufficient.

[joeybee12]

31. Here's my prayer...

Dear Pat Robertson:

Please find me a stooge like your pal Charles Taylor,
who will allow me access to his diamond mines,
and allow me to grow in great wealth,
while millions are slaughtered.
This we ask in Your Name. Amen.

[liberalhistorian]

33. Geez, I sure am glad I somehow

managed to avoid a 700 Club initiation, lol!

[joeybee12]

34. Well, you can't ask Pat for peace and love and stuff he doesn't know about

You have to go with what he's good at--making money while thousands die!

[Cheswick2.0]

35. assignment 4

Light a candle (or put on a flash light) and recite this pledge.

1) I promise to be celebate for as long as I am a 700 club member

2) I will be loyal to all other 700 club members

3)I will preach the gospel of DU and try to bring members into the fold.

4)Everyday I will at least think about singing On Eagles Wings

5)I will wear or imagine wearing white leather shoes and matching belt

6)I will be pure in thought word and deed (okay, this is the 700 club, you just need to say it, not really do it)

7)When my time in the club is over I will relinquish my 700 club banner.

[joeybee12]

36. The part about being celibate was easy, Goddamnit!

Done!

Next?

I used a flashlight.

[Cheswick2.0]

37. Task 5 of 7 (of course 7)

tell us your most embarrasing moment as a confession (so we have something to blackmail you with later after you escape our clutches)

[joeybee12]

39. My Confession

I am heartly sorry for having embarrassed myself on local television at Jay Inslee's victory party by holding a sign upside down in front of the cameras.

[Cheswick2.0]

41. ROFL

good one! I am assuming we can get the video if we must.

[Cheswick2.0]

38. Task 6

Draw a 700 on your body somewhere. You can use permanent marker, pen or crayon.

[joeybee12]

40. I put it on my thigh--I'm wearing shorts

Next--are you going to say that my 7th task is to say why I have too much free time to do all this????????????

[Cheswick2.0]

42. well if you are in the mood for more confessions

we could, but no.... look down

[Cheswick2.0]

43. your 7th task

past this into your sig line and don't take it out until you reach 800

[joeybee12]

44. Gladly--how do I do it???

I shoud tell you that I'm shooting for 1000 by Monday before I leave for Rome, so the banner may be gone quickly!

[Cheswick2.0]

45. go to the lobby

look up and click on options

click on edit your profile

get the url just like you did with the other pic and past it into the space that says signiture line, hit update.

That should do it.

[joeybee12]

46. Did it take--well see!

[joeybee12]

47. Guess it didn't!

I guess I did something wrong!

[Cheswick2.0]

50. here is the web site

when you get there click on the graphic and write it down so you can copy it into the sig line spot. I think what was missing is the .jpeg at the end of the url address.

[Cheswick2.0]

48. that's weird

I wonder why it won't open in your post?

[joeybee12]

49. It said something about disabling images...

...from outside servers. Maybe you can't add this one anymore, and those who have it are ok.

I'll try in the morning--time for bed.

Thanks--it was fun!

[Cheswick2.0]

51. good night

You are a good sport
