CD's? Better think DVD burner, my friend. And I went through about 10 of them since Christmas! No duds yet, thank goodness.

Tried to comply with the new standards here. But I don't think it is such a great idea either; otherwise, no one will read my witty banter. Oh yeah, and the stuff that Slew writes too.

Actually it's funny that you mentioned Rachel Marteen's (What did I do?) age; a lot of Playmates complain that their fame only lasts for the month, but that isn't really true, is it?

But a really important concern is that this thread will lose it's "flow." I think people like to post things and go, and not worry about any special order. It's what I find attractive about this thread, compared to some other forums.

And to properly organize things, you really need a forum; I can't imagine a thread (no matter how great) functioning as a forum. Back in Tobyken's old forum, we had a special thread just for "forum maintenance."

In short, you can prune a bonsai tree, but this thread
is more like a giant redwood.

P.S. I see the Ronaldinho avatar. Well, forget about Brazil winning it. It's going to be France. Why? Because Zidane hears voices, of course. Ahhh...

I'm going to get a Scott Parker avatar, just you wait. You know, in the game against Arsenal, he lost a tooth, and kept on playing until he got a concussion. One of the most impressive things I have ever seen. Go Newcastle!
