I had a whole section about civic pride.

Mayor ,'Chosen'


Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier  

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I know we've talked about Natter 5 titles, but was anything decided? Natter 4's at 9000+ posts, so we'll need a new thread soon.

Our wings are not tired.

Because a lot of people skip and skim in Natter (eg me), can we please have a separate thread to say thanks when our Secret Santa gifts arrive?

I don't usually like the thought of more threads, but it would be nice to read about the Secret Santa gifts arriving. I skip like crazy and would miss it in Natter.

I think Beep Me would be a good place for Santa gift arrival posts.

Last year there was a 'Goodbye 2001' thred (Goodbye and Good Riddance, 2001). Maybe, if people want somehting similar this year, there could be a thread which will combine the 'Goodbye' thread's purpose and the Secret-Santa Gifts? Buffista-ing the Holidays, or something like that?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'd LOVE a Good Riddance, 2002 thread.

Every Christmas we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance and create a good riddance thread.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I'd say no to a thread just for the secret buffista gifts, but if we want to do a Holiday announcemnts/send off 2002 that would make more sense (at least to me and I'm usually right in my own head anyway.).

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

I think a general holiday thread for "Good Riddances" and Secret Santa thank-yous would be appropriate. It would also be a good place for people to announce if they're going dark or dim over the holidays (if they felt odd about posting such stuff in Beep Me).

I'm in favour of a Buffista holiday thread for the winter months, in general terms.

FTR, I'm against the 5 rings thing. Mainly because I'm against the Twelve Days of Christmas.

Of course, I have nothing better to suggest. Maybe something where V stands in also for Versus?

I think the novocaine is cutting of oxygen to my brain.
