Damn, I'm going to be on the way home when Natter most likely rolls over, so I just want to re-iterate "Beware the Ides of Natter" for 15.
This money, it is too much. You should have some small refund.

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.

So, it looks like the Natter thread is nearing it's end. What should we name the new one? :::kidding!:::

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The new thread's set up and ready to go. Time for some haiku!

Should I see the thread on the thread maintanance drop down list? Because I don't.

Nah, haven't hit submit yet.

Ahh, OK. I was thinking you created it, but made it closed, and would open it when the old thread is done.

I edited, Jon. I just did what you suggested.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm thinking we might need to add "Bob likes carrots" to the FAQ. It's common currency and a useful meme. It's Teppy's coinage:
ND, the origin of Bob likes carrots is...um...me.
It's the phenomenon wherein someone is SO very into his/her sweetie/lover/Master/whatever that no matter what the conversation, no matter how unrelated it is to one's sweetie, you still mention him/her. For example.
Buffista 1: "I need to go to the farmer's market to get some veggies."
Buffista 2: "I have a good recipe for sauteed carrots if you want it."
Buffista 3: "Carrots? Bob likes carrots!"
Did we decide to keep phrases like "Cousin Klingon" in the FAQ? That never really crossed to the lexicon.

Probably time to start thinking about the next Bitches name.
Only a couple of days left at the rate we're going.
