1. Every member of the Bush administration has resigned at least twice and it's barely past midnight
out there on the Lesser Coast.

Hence my pre-emptive strike: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=3088529&mesg_id=3088529

But yeah, 24 hours of every forum looking like the Lounge = not good. :eyes:

14. I think Skinner should announce
that anyone posting a fake news story anywhere outside of the lounge will be suspended for a week - and then he should DO it.

16. No, you're not.
My father died on April Fools Day and I've hated it ever since.

I always get depressed, even when I tell myself I'm not going to.

39. Thanks.
Wasn't too bad as far as April 1sts have gone. Found a good Greek restaurant up here finally, and work wasn't too awful. I can't complain.

18. The funniest one was on Halloween once
I think it was '03 or '04. Virtually everyone on DU was coming out as freepers and spamming the boards with ridiculous RW talking points. It was actually quite funny.

28. I know: my first thought was that I would have to discount everything I read in GD:P today
The second thing was that I do that every day. :-|
