Here I thought it was just me who realized what was going on. I propose that the mods require him to either a) fulfill his promise and go away or b) change his handle to "AttentionWhore"

Nope, but I have all sorts of new and creative hand gestures to show the uninsured drivers of my beloved home city! :)

Wow who really cares? You guys sound as pathetic as you make him out to be. This is a stupid Forum (actually lamer than most) why does it matter to you what they guy does or says? Is this place really that important to you to make a big deal out of this?

C'mon Red, you know as well as anyone how Mcowen's stories are as dishonest as they are ridiculous--especially the thread titles. Obviously this forum and/or discussion means something to you to elicit a reply, eh? And more to the point, why is this a "stupid forum" anyway? Because people like Mcowen have made it that way.

Hey, if calling shenanigans on yet another fanciful Mcowen post aimed to bring attention to himself makes me look as pathetic as Mcowen in your eyes, well sorry, I just can't bring myself to worry about what you think of me--something I'm sure you already know. Should I *really* be as pathetic as Mcowen and litter P&N and OT with similar disingenuous and dishonest discussion? Since you are King, I leave the decision up to you and will obey your command. :p

True enough. I must admit though, that if it were left to me (and you) to start these discusions, [Perknose mode] this place would be as barren as Condi Rice's womb.[/] I think I've started maybe less than 10 discussions total...........meh......

Heh.

NOLA has some baaad drivers.

They have no idea what a turn signal is apparently.
LOL, I was just commenting on this last time I was in NO (last month). This seems to be a new phenomenon, I don't remember it being so bad when I was living there. Seriously about 98% of drivers DO NOT signal, at all!
