1. oh my!!! talk about how there are no secrets and things get taken out of context!!!!! prime example here. we LOVE 8 Bar – do not misunderstand. but…. it is the wrong group affiliation for the purpose being discussed. no harm/disrespect was meant. this picture is TOTALLY out of context. I was there, so I know.

2. Absolutely – it’s a joke, and it was taken (and posted) as a joke. I was there too and did mention that I was taking a snapshot so I believed this was understood.

   This was just a bit of fun at one of our regular meetings – I gave me a laugh so I thought I’d share it – as I said in the post, “no significance”

3. It *totally* was a joke.. and meant in fun. I had (have) no intent on slamming anyone or any group. The post is maybe a bit out of context here… so…

   Possibly a bit of explanation will provide some context. We’ve discussed some questions about use of eightbar … and the topic keeps coming up… over and over again. Like flogging a tired horse. So, that was what drove the somewhat tongue-in-cheek protest.

   So, I put the sign on… and it was completely meant as a laugh. If I offended someone with my sense of humor, well, I apologize! It was my decision to do it, so the blame lies with me. I tend to laugh first and think somewhat later.

4. ah, THANK you Andy – i must have been afk when you said it. whew!!!! i didn’t mean to offend. since I made the shirts and signs, I felt responsible if anyone misunderstood. *hugs* thanks for having a sense of humor!!! /me offers you a shirt and a sign (the signs are animated even)

5. That is indeed hilarious I have to say not being there at the time, I just thought that it was cool that eightbar still has the power to be regarded both a something to have fun with and also with a certain reverence.
   Eightbar is there for everyone to do whatever they want including joking about it None of the rigorous corporate branding guidelines here.
   So thankyou that was brilliant in whatever context.
   8bar FTW

6. @ Andy… I think I might have to create a new group named “Misguided Individual”.

   Thanks all for your sense of humor. Wonderful!

7. we can’t really have IBM without 8 bars so the guy must find something else. otherwise we’ll look like I II III (IBM written in like…6 bars)
