doh

i posted that thread w/o having read it all first, and when i did...i found it just a bit disturbing. i think you have raised valid points. because i have a tendency to unconsciously solicit trouble (read: get harrassed) i was really worried when i joined the site that i might step on some toes and get kicked off--even though i try to be harmless as a lamb.
but then, reading that thread--i worry even more, because there doesn't seem to be a consistent standard.

yikes!
i really want to like it here, but the tone of that thread just plain intimidates me.

The way I see it, you might as well come back and try to raise hell. If you're sort of leaving anyway, it kind of gives you license to run amuck.

I'd consider running amuck with you but the palistinian/israel conflict isn't my bag. I don't have the stomach for it. I'd rather read about cephalopod biology than the middle eastern mess and since I'm unwilling to do the research, I've given up the right to hold a strong opinion on the subject.

While I understand your issue with what you see as an unfair use of authority, I also understand wishing death on groups of people. I saw the move Biker Boys this evening and caught myself hoping for the painful deaths of anyone that would polish the frame of a yamaha R1 and paint it like a low rider. That doesn't mean that I'd be willing to set up camps an shove people into the ovens... It's more of a hypothetical death that I'm wishing for.

Anyway, thanks for mentioning me in the thread. I've more or less stopped hanging around the current events so it's nice to see someone remembers my long winded rambling.

Yes, please, you'll be a hero if you stay and continue agrueing against spooky (and maybe get booted because of that). So, how about dieing in the battle?
On the other hand, I can understand your frustration very well, I may not be worth the energy you'll loose by this.

You showed a lot of integrity. Still, I wish you'd stay.

Butter your bacon, boy........

But my heart hurts!

happy birthday, mr. "i like a really good book".

My, you have excellent taste in pictures too. We even both cropped it almost exactly the same way. It's good though because I need a reason to try out some new ones I got off boners.com

We astrology haters have got to stick together.

Hey little buddy, can I put you on my friends list?

Sure!!

I stole it from www.engrish.com. It's from my fascination with Japanese culture. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the shirts I wear with Asian scripts on them say something as ridiculous as the examples they give of funny English phrases.

we have a bourbon street here. sadly, it's in a mall.

apparently, somewhere in japan.

Hey aren't you my second cousin?

yes, yes I was referring to OMD, but it just so happens I can relate to the song now =(

HA! OMD! i admit that i have one of their albums. and I work for silverback entertainment on a game called Harbinger
