    Home is where you make it mssr.

    Here is an interesting thought that I came across on sabatical.

    This place doesn't matter.

    It really doesn't. The community here is made up entirely of peoples somehow "connection" via electrical signals. I mean, how much do I really know about anybody here.

    I can count the ACTUAL friends I have made in this place on one hand. I mean I love you guys and all, but if this place went up in a fire sale it wouldn't be the end of the world.

    The cold hard facts are this. As the forum grew larger it attracted more people. With more people, by sheer additions alone, the content, stoke and even general likeability of the users declined. With more users it eventually attracted the "new-schoolers" crowd. This in turn lead to a bunch of hormonally challenged teen-agers spewing gurge about as though it is going out of buisness. (compared to the gurge spewing of before of course, everything old is new again) Eventually like all large entities, it will fall, to be replaced by something else.

    Mostly the thing that bugs me about the new additions is the lack of originality. I mean flame wars have been done to death now. Lets try a pumpkin throwing contest, or perhaps internet rock paper scissors.

    Now back to the gurge

    Homesteading is that like squatting?
    People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

    I think I could see my way to defrost some 'nog if you're swinging through. Also, I am badly in need of forensic accounting.

    Time for some action!
    Just a fraction of friction!
    I got the clearance
    To run the interference
    Into your satellite
    Shining a battle light
    Sen got the gatt and I know that he'll gatt you right
    Heres an example
    Just a little sample
    How I could just kill a man
    One-time tried to come in my home
    Take my chrome
    I said, yo, its on!
    Take cover son or you're assed-out
    How do you like my chrome then I watched the rookie pass out
    Didnt have to blast him but I did anyway
    That young punk had to pay
    So I just killed a man!

    Muskrat, Muskrat, candle light
    Doin' the town and doin' it right in the evenin'
    It's pretty pleasin'
    Muskrat Suzie, Muskrat Sam
    Do the jitterbug at a Muskrat Land
    And they shimmy, Sam is so skinny

    And they whirl and they twirl and they tango
    Singin' and jinglin' a jangle
    Float like the heavens above
    Looks like Muskrat Love

    Nibblin' on bacon
    Chewin' on cheese
    Sam says to Suzie
    Honey, would you please be my Mrs
    Suzie says, yes, with her kisses
    Now, he's ticklin' her fancy
    Rubbin' her toes
    Muzzle to muzzle
    Now anything goes as they wriggle
    Sue starts to giggle

    And they whirled and they twirled and they tango
    Singin' and jinglin' a jangle
    Floatin' like the heavens above
    Looks like muskrat love

    That shit is for nerds. Right now I'm all about cross-elasticities and the what-nots. I always take my eggnog with freshly baked sugar cookies, fyi.
