A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Cool?

Of course. I wouldn't say "don't get snippy with me" if we weren't cool to start with.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

We're closing "Goodbye and Good Riddance" this weekend, right? Has everybody gotten their prezzies?

"don't get snippy with me"

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

And, lest we skip over the most crucial aspect of the Legend of Allyson and Kristen, they're important because they know me. It's part of the Monique Vibe.

The Monique Mystique?

Anyway, I vote for all threads that possibly can, to be named after Violent Femmes songs.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Have we had discussions for Natter 8 already?

Something like "Natter 8 My Workday"?

Nobody

Trudy - darn you! Don't make me love more than one name! I want them all. All. All. I blame you. *shaky fist*

In reference to Steph's question, in addition to staying open because there's still new episodes in the can, and still a gleam of a glimmer of hope, it's also sort of the de facto general TV thread, right now.

What me? Campaign? Never.

I always thought the Firefly thread was still open out of sympathy for those of us (myself included) who don't deal well with reality.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Pardon, all, but I'm hijacking the thread for a moment.

Is there a protocol for starting a regional Buffista mailing list? I'd like to start one for the Baltistas/DCistas if there isn't one already. Should I create a list over at yahoogroups and announce it in Press, or would it be better to suss out everyone's interest and then create the list?

Fred Pete - Jan 30, 2003 7:08:32 am PST #3898 of 10001
Ann, that's a ferret.

I'd sign up for a DCista mailing list.

And for the next thread, how about "The Natter That Ate Sheboygan"? (Or some other city. Maybe LA, in honor of this year's megaF2F?)
