Sorry. Wasn't sure if you were familiar with it. Why would that bother you? People use it here as "Talk to you later" and "What's up?"

Some people pronounce "holler" (yell, shout) hol'-la, leading to "holla". Where I'm from a "hollow" can be a "holler" because of the regional pronunciation.

I love this place. Thanks to everybody who makes it possible, members on up to the admin. The people here are lots o' fun. Thanks for putting up with me. I would also like to thank Dido for supplying the background music in my head for this thread.

You know it!

I noticed your clever use of key phrases to keep the audience's attention. You must have excellent public speaking skills.

Sounds exciting.

Oh, you should see the Wing episode of South Park. Click here for a taste. Talentless people can become famous anywhere.

Likin' the avatar, Amy.

I didn't read the rest of this thread, and I never watch the show. I just watched the end of it last night because I happened to be at my parents' house, and they're huge fans. All I've got to say is, "Wow. Why don't they just stop kidding themselves and call it 'Survivors Gone Wild' or...

I've been meaning to post here for a while. Almost nothing beats a pizza and a mountain dew at night. Favorite Pies Local: Dave's Darkhorse Tavern's Chicago Style pizza. It takes 45 minutes to cook because it has crust on top and bottom, and it's guts are stuffed with sauce and...

We call them flea markets here. They're very popular. We also have things called garage sales where people just set out their junk in the yard and sell it. They usually start at around four in the morning. That's when the real bargain hunters arrive. I'm not a fan of them, but maybe I will...

Last night, I made an impulse buy, On Bullshit by Harry G. Frankfurt. Frankfurt is professor of philosophy at Princeton, and his book is an academic exploration of the BS we are almost constantly subjected to. I hate BS, so when I saw the BS promoting this book on the show 60 Minutes, I had to...

No doubt. This also happens to be the reason I voted Libertarian in the last election. Have you seen the bumper sticker that says, "No Incumbents"? That would be great. Then those guys you're talking about wouldn't be sitting around talking about nothing. This happens to be the million...

Hey, you started the thread. Maybe I don't need to be posting in this thread. Even the guy that started the thread thinks it's ridiculous. Safe bet. If Vegas has odds, take it. The common factor in both cases is that the government is acting in a protective role. Once we've handed them...

I would go on a killing spree, and then end it all in one suicidal blast because society would've reach a new peak of fascist thought and nothing would matter anymore. Well, if we take the demand for OSHA as a precedent, the people have handed the government the power to ensure safe conditions...

Jimmy Martin was a factory worker from Hancock County, Tennessee, that went to play with Bill Monroe (considered by many to be the father of bluegrass music) after being fired for singing too much on the job. He went on to play with almost everybody who was anybody in bluegrass, and he's best...

That is the legal logic. The government derives its authority from its ownership of the roads. You beat me to the post. However, I understand Moto's point completely. He's toying with Libertarian ideas, as little government intervention as possible with respect for citizens' rights above...

"I haven't had a chance to try out my new parts since the surgery." "You know, I have a pet goat." "Have you ever heard of a snuff film?" "Is it just me or is Bin Laden just ahead of the game?" Fun post, Jenn. We'll have to do it more often.

You're not a big meanie, novella. These are not happy times here, and regardless of whether your thread was meant as an attack or not, in this climate, it was easily read that way. We know you meant well, but your rush to break the story without a full investigation (whatever that entails)...
