"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I don't have a horse in the naming of this particular thread, but most of the time merging multiple quotes to please everyone results in a nonsensical mish-mash that isn't all that pleasing to anyone. One clearcut, funny idea is probably best.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

So PeoplesForum is gone for good?

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

Is it, or did Lance's hosting service mislay his site?

OK. I proposed: "Sometimes callous and strange is our gift" because I thought it WAS clearcut and funny. I was not proposing mishmashes in general, but that one in particular. Not insisting that anyone else find it funny of course.

Man, I haven't been back to peoplesforum very often. I just went back and nada.

I went back a few months ago, and it was gone. I figured that Lance finally gave it up.

If an admin is around, Sox has forgotten her password and is in search of help. She's emailed, I believe. And now I must make sure that she doesn't rip this computer out of my hands and post as me.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It's been handled. Thanks for the note. It speeded things up as Sox didn't put her userid in her email and I didn't recognize her addy.

not your mom's socks.

Sparky's helpful like that. So is Jon B. Many thanks to you both.
