The rite of passage age is 80 - and so far, Miriam is the only one who qualifies. We're all wannabes.
If I'm not past the rite of passage by now then my God! You are bastards!
What about KelRel?
It has to do with children and you farting.
Obviously you are too young to be around us.
I don't fart around children, unlike SOME people...

Is KelRel the one who taught a class using BWW as a teaching tool?
Yes, but the spelling and punctuation were FRIGHTFUL! I fear for our nation's future.

Oh, that KelRel!
"Is KelRel the one who taught a class using BWW as a teaching tool?"
I thought that was children&art.
what?
Goodness, this sounds like the time my English teacher printed out a message board argument about the Scarlet Letter...and read it in class.
LMAO, thank you Jane for insuring that others don't acctually think that that was me.
My pleasure! that was bizarre-he posted that the board was on his overhead projector in class and was waiting for replies. Were you here for that?
Oh yes I was here for that and I got some interesting PMs from him when I told him that he shouldn't do that or introduce his students (middle schoolers) to this site as it isn't always "age appropriate".
you were talking about kringas, weren't you kel. he's so age inappropriate.
Don't forget about the gathering next month.
I agree with Wonder........there are some very young posters here who have posted threads that amaze me, and some of the older ones have posted things that I think 'What WERE uyou thinking?"
I don't think it's about age, I think it's about attitude, and character.
I never should've read this thread...now I feel old!
Papa, I was acctually refering to you. Need I remind you of the obscene PMs I got in honor of my "MBCoTD" day?
I certainly am not part of any "in group" on BWW... and I'm 102.
EDIT: BTW, doodlenyc--- I LOVE your little "Precious Moments figurine" of Regan in The Exorcist. LOL!
Best-you're always in in my book!

Ok, as someone who is seventeen, I have to speak up. I have never been aware of any discrimination on these boards against teens. Ok, so I lied. There is. Although I haven't been discriminated against personally, there are people who have been. And I can understand that. I guess people discriminate against us because they think that us teenagers don't know our Broadway as well as some of the old timers on this board, and that we only listen to "Wicked" or "Rent" or "The Phantom of the Opera". Yes, it's wrong to say that someone knows all about Broadway if they only heard of one friggen show, but it's just as wrong to say that someone is any less of a fan because of the lack of exposure they have. I am a case in point. Yes, I like things such as "Wicked", which is incidently looked down on upon this board, but I also like "Oklahoma!", "Sweeney Todd", "West Side Story", and other musicals. Even if I didn't like these other things, it would still be wrong, because my mum has something against me going to Broadway shows unless they are the real horrific ones like "Mama Mia". Maybe other teens on this board are the same way: They would like to get access to Broadway, but can't, unless it's through something like "Rent".
In short, is it unfair that teens are getting discriminated against. Yes. I guess what people fear is a teenager acting like a Broadway know-it-all if they have only seen one show and if they haven't bothered looking up the rest of 'em. Which is understandable, but guess what: Most of them don't. So don't discriminate based on age on this board.
Ok, that's my rant. Flame away.
Discrimination? Really?

B12B, I am thinking of actually buying this darlin' figurine so that I can place it among my mother's hummels and see how long it takes her to notice...

I've heard a rumor that on the day of your 25th birthday you receive a "special treat" from Papa...and from that day on your part of the BWW elite.
Papa, I have never had to deal with something that inappropriate in my life! I always pose with at least 8,000 marbles. You are a perv for wanting less.
baby, i never want less.
colleen, i am so adding you on myspace.
