When I log into the Threefold Structure of Reality thread, or whenever I post something, I get talked to. This last time it was the voice of Captain ? from Toy Story saying, three times, "I see no signs of intelligent life anywhere."

How did it get there?
Are others finding this?
How can I get rid of it. It was funny the first time or two. Now its irritating.

Doc-

I logged on to page 33 of the Threeness thread and got the voice, 3x, saying the same thing. Somebody's practical joke. Probably Paul Helseth has sabotaged the site!

This afternoon when I went onto the threeness thread it was the voice of Chris Farley from Saturday night live saying three times "you will be eating a lot of cheese living in a van down by the river."

Who's Paul?

Sounds like someone put an esecutable command (a program) on that site, jsut as they inserted pictures or the text that scrolls across the page. You can have that disabled on your computer, but that is probably an all-or-nothing thing.

Non of that (maybe "applets) would show up on my little old Mac. But the family computer probably would show it -- when I get there.

The danger is that ANYTHING could be put there. Even viruses.

Wow, never thought the results of the threeness sickness would be so powerfully manifested. It seems it has created a sort of group hysteria or group hallucination! Interesting.

And NO, I had NOTHING to do with this. Though I do find it humorous.

Is there a vaccination for this, or should I start rebuking Satan or something of the likes?

Modes... I am with you man. This is starting to get a little scary here!

The question isn't are we hearing voices but rather WHY AREN'T YOU? COME AND JOIN IN THE FUN OF THREENESS MANIA, MODES

Don't you hear the voices calling you? They sound like the Village People:
"We want you, we want you, we want you as a new recruit!"

And to top that off I am walking through the toy isle with my children tonight, minding my own business, when low and behold I come upon a game called "TRIBOND" by Patch. The game that asks what do these THREE have in common? The best THREEZER riddles from the past 10 years.

Here are a few riddles for you all to try out. I will give the answers in my next post.

What does a car, a tree, and an elephant have in common?

What does Florida, a locksmith, and a piano have in common?

What does kelly, olive, and emerald have in common?

What does a balloon, a drug prescription, and a donute have in common?


See my next post for the answers to these THREEZER riddles

Here are the answers to the "THREEZER" riddles.

What does a car, a tree, and an elephant have in common? A TRUNK

What does Florida, a locksmith, and a piano have in common? Keys

What does kelly, olive, and emerald have in common? Shades of green

What does a balloon, a drug prescription, and a donute have in common? They're filled


If you want to get more THREEZER riddles, buy the game I guess

Trosie! I actually have the game Tribond. I've had it for a few years. I cannot believe that it never even occurred to me to stick that in with "the threes". Boy, do I feel like a dunce. ahhh!

Well, would you mind submitting a few of the THREEZERS for us all to try and guess at? I think I will have to pick myself up this game but until I do, I'd love to be challenged with some more THREEZERS.

What do you say?

Thanks TCTBU! I am stumped on a couple so I will have to think on them for a day but I am hoping someone else will come up with the answers sooner.

BTW, I am moving your questions over to the THREENESS thread. I hope you won't mind?

This is fun!

Congratulations my well-thinking friends.

#1. would be - Characteristics of Captain John Smith.

#2. They have Cobbs (Ty Cobb, Randall "Tex" Cobb and of course the corn is self explanatory.)

#3. They have foam, Nerf being a brand name.

On to the next?? I am at a lost whether I should post these here or on the Threefold thread. I am afraid the other one gets so cluttered, that it might just be better to post them here. I do not know. Tell me what you wish and I shall act accordingly.

Until then...

TCTBU:

I agree that the other thread gets so full so let's keep it going here. It's fun to be challenged! I look forward to the next set of THREE of the THREEZER's.

Thanks,

Hey TCTBU,
I don't know any of the answers, but I love your signature! (I'm studying psychiatry right now...it fits!)
