To answer the question of today, one must look into the past...
At 5:59AM the alarm blazed as usual, but on this Monday morning excitement and anticipation caused Jaydog to jump quickly out of bed... For in less than a fort-night school would be let out, with the dreams of summer vacation beckonning ever closer, and the awareness that ConquerClub was about to enjoy it's first summer, all these things mixed with the cool morning haze of June as Jaydog gleefully prepared to select his morning cereal. Would this be a Frosted Wheaties morning, or did mom buy a box of Cocoa Pebbles like he had requested? Mixing both cereals together, Jaydog logged into ConquerClub and decided to respond to a post about BradBennett. Maybe it was the combining of those two high sugar cereals, maybe it was the excitement of signing yearbooks later in the day, we will never know for sure... but what happened next has been recorded in the ConquerClub hall of fame, enjoy reliving the moment with this infamous quote from that early Gemini morning in 2006...

Jas, don't worry about it, I have played doubles and triples and always found you to be a solid partner
(color added for emphasis)This triggered several posts that morning, mostly little giggles, and the story might have ended there, and then there was this jewel posted later in the day from JollyRoger...

That same day, we saw the beginning of others using this phrase... there was no containing it now...
