    Britney Spears booed off the stage!

    Thanks to my bad eyesight, I looked at the title of this thead and thought it said: Britney Spears boobed off the stage! And I thought "Yup, that silicone must have finally bounced her right into the orchestra pit."

    Weaning the Family from AOL

    I think they will love broadband, but they scream and holler about the cost. It's a bummer to be a 21st-century girl in a house full of Neanderthals scrawling on cave walls. ;)

    For those that livedthrough both, which was the bigger scandal: Watergate or Lewinsky?

    I was not around at the time, but (thanks to my grandmother) I have learned quite a bit about the Army/McCarthy Hearings in the early 1950's (related to rooting out supposed Communists in the media.) From what I understand, that had a bigger impact on the nation than either Watergate or...

    Thanks! Good advice. I would love to be able to convince 'em to get cable internet service! If I use their ignorance as my tool, as you suggest, I am gonna need a mighty big toolbox. :D

    Thread Crapping in OT

    The thread was about a woman mourning her dead father. If you think that's a good place for "a little joke," you are probably one of the funeral armpit-farters I referred to earlier.

    Thread Crapping in OT

    Red Dawn has accurately described the olden days of OT. In earlier times, there were lots of rude words and many flamewars, but mostly there were feelings behind the flames, not just a desire to be a smart ass and attract attention to one's own smarmy adolescent self.
