Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, OK then. It's nice to be able to just click through. I can deal.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

And once the spammers got you, they never let go. I continue to get spam at my work email, even though I took it off my web page years ago.

It's fascinating how many Russians really want to advertise to donations@buffistas.org, I must say.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I have a question.

Hey. New board.

Curiosity: Is there a historical reason we went with building our own message board system rather than using an out-of-the-box solution like vBulletin or phpBB?

I wasn't around then, I don't really know what went into the decision.

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

Because we had the tools and the talent.
