What is this thing?
« on: July 11, 2005, 09:38:26 PM »
What was this crazy thing in Provo I heard about today on the radi-o? Something about some crazy board filled with insanely goofy writings that would suit me very well.

I think he's talking about the 100 Hour Board.

No longer under constant censorship since they ditched the Evil BYUSA, they are now hosted by the liguistics department and can freely answer questions again.

No no. Not a message board. Something in Provo UTAH where people are writing goofy things on a board. I forget!

It sounds like an online version of the 100 hour board, which used to be an actual bulletin board, Gemm.

Sounds familiar. It wouldn't be this board would it?  ;)

A search of harktheherald.com turned up nothing sounding anything like what you're talking about.  Gemm you either need to give us more context or some actual keywords.
What radio station was it? When were you listening? Who was the DJ?

It was on 103.3 the edge, WEDG, sometime in the afternoon. Maybe between... 1 and 2.

actually, providing more context about the board itself would be more helpful than the DJ.

Well I was thinking in a pinch you can always call the radio station and beg them to tell you what it was.
