    Hello Everybody,

    Back, by popular demand!

    Da Rulz!

    Rule #1: There are no rules.
    Rule #2: See Rule #1.

    There you go!

    No more "sysops only" foolishness!
    Everybody can play, without exception!
    Sysops and probationary sysops alike!
    All have full read and write access!
    Irrevocable access for all!

    Dems Da Rulz!

    Oh.

    One more thing.

    I'm da new Moderator.

    Da vote was unaminous!

    According to da election coordinator,
    no actual election was needed as I was
    da only candidate. But I did vote for
    myself anyway, out of respect.

    So.

    Welcome to FN_SYSOP.

    Sounds like the Emperor of San Francisco from the 1860s.

    If Tom Jennings is that brilliant, I wonder why he's working as a parking-lot attendant and not preparing his acceptance-speech for the Nobel Prize in Philosophy ...

    Does this mean I misinterpreted your message? Your intention was not to make fun of Tom Jennings, but to tell a joke about a Nobel Prize that doesn't exist?

    I will never make fun of Tom Jennings. He's totally overrated and his only usage is by some people refering to him as a visionary because that makes them look good by lack of something else.

    He's in the sphere of influence of Randy Bush, yes ... 'the' Randy Bush, who called Fidonet "a cat litter reeking for urine" before leaving and slamming the door but sits on his FTS-1 copyright like a King and claims he will sue anyone touching it ... That in itself could be a trigger to try it.

    This remindes me of the twitter feed of a guy who calls himself a very stable genius.

    Bob Dylan beat him to it.

    Simple urine test -

    For those that can't get to a urologist -
    A simplified urine test.
    Go outside and pee in the garden.

    If ants gather:- diabetes.

    If you pee on your feet:- prostate.

    if it smells like a barbecue:- cholesterol.

    if when you shake it, your wrist hurts:- osteoarthritis.

    if ye return to yer room with yer penis outside yer pants:- Alzheimer's

    Have a day,
