Hi !!!

We're glad you're here and checking us out.  And we'd like you to join us. Something brought you here to us, and we hope that you found it.  And if you've poked around here a bit, you can see that we have a diverse array of talents, experiences, and skills.  All of which we are more than willing to share.  And if you stick your head into politics, you'll also discover that we have a wide range of opinions and ideals.  All of which we welcome here.

So what we're asking is that you join us.  And it's quite simple.  Register for an account and start posting.  It may seem intimidating at first, as most here have been around for a while.  But, I can assure you that everyone has had their shots, and that while some may growl on occasion, they don't bite.

So, jump right in and throw your $.02 out here.  It's always interesting !!!




(And if all 111 of your are with the DIANSACIAFBIKGBGRUMI6Stasi, etc:   :P :P :P :P :P)

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

We passed around the bag.....It was filled with blackballs, except for one, and Fistful wrote his name on it.  So, as usual it's his fault that you get to stay...

I think we established a while back that a large number of those guests are robots, so are we saying we want to invite the terminator to our party?  =D

We have enough IT skills between all of us that inviting Terminators to our party could be *hilarious...* ...Or fatal, probably both.

Restocking fee is 10% OR $5.00 which ever is greater.

I thought the contract was, you refund my US$0.02.

Unilateral post hoc modifications to the contract require mutual agreement.

Whaddaya think, you're my bank, which constantly sends "updates" to our original agreement?
