Tell a friend.

At least they avoided going to an editorialized news format. It’s good to know that some journalists still understand their craft.

Have a nice summer :) Play nice while I am gone.

My logic:

I am 19 years old. I am an adult. I have the legal responsibilities of an adult. If I commit a crime, I am held as an adult, not a half-adult. Yet, in regards to alchohol, and law does not regard me as an adult, and that is insulting.

And for the record, I don’t drink.

I deleted all the duplicates :) I think…

“Zappa plays Zappa” - Dweezil Zappa, Napoleon Murphy Brock, Terry Bozzio, and Steve Vai in the “Zappa plays Zappa” tour.

I am a huge Frank Zappa fan, but he died when I was 8 years old. I never got to see him live. However, his son (helped quite a bit by the Zappa-schooled performers around him) played one hell of a show. They don’t make music like that anymore.

Sane woman? Huh?

My Devils should be here right now :(

Yeah, keep it clean people :)

I am a huge baseball fanatic, and spend a couple of hours a day reading various baseball blogs, stats, and reports. Some sites:

I post on hfboards.com about hockey. I read most of the articles at cnn.com every day. Oh, and I frequent nationstates.net

In no order:

1. John Adams, when asked about his British relatives, “I have not one drop of blood in my veins but what is American!”
2. John Adams, "The true source of our suffering has been our timidity. We have been afraid to think. Let us dare to read, think, speak and write. Let it be known that British liberties are not the grants of princes or parliaments
3. Thomas Jefferson, “The King is a tyrant whether we call him one or not. We might as well call him one”
4. Edmund Burke “A Representative owes the people not only his industry, but his judgment, and he betrays them if he sacrifices it to their opinion”
5. Patrick Henry – “I am not a Virginian, but an American”

(I’m a sap for the Revolutionary War)

Without a paddle - “Dude, why are you tieing your shoe?” “I don’t have to outrun the bear. I just have to outrun you”

Lots of Shining Force fans on these forums. Good man Jermo :)

Something to strive for Switch?

Please don’t mention Strongbad…

TV Actors:

1. Bradley Whitford. I’m a West Wing junkie. He’s got a new show this fall too.
2. Sam Waterston
3. Kiefer Sutherland (I’m a 24 junkie)

TV lines:

1. “The only reason you are still conscious is because I don’t want to carry you!” - Jack Bauer, 24

And I hardly noticed it :)

Read the announcement forum post :)

I will be out of action for two months this summer in addition to GG being out for one month, we (read: the moderating team) have decided that it may be neccessary for another couple of moderators to be added to the team. Also, the site is growing faster than anyone ever expected, and the extra help is going to be needed in the future.

Both are well qualified and both were our first choices for the job. Good job guys.

Imperious Leader and Ncscswitch have been made part time moderators. Switch will handle Political Discussion, General Discussion, Other Games, and Games while Imperious handles everything else.

Congradulations guys, I have full faith in both of you.
