2. Lol.
So was it voted off the island or what? I was here the day it started and I knew many didn't like it.

I found it distracting, so if it's gone then I'm glad.

8. Thanks for the link.
I found the MUST READ graphic drew my eye, as it was no doubt intended to, but I would rather figure out on my own what is a must read.

9. You're more than welcome. And I had to have it pointed out to me, LOL.
I thought that Skinner would have pinned this thread, found it in GD. And I agree about the MUST READ graphic, but I also tend to check out The Greatest Page, to see if there's anything important that I need to know. DUers are the best at passing on important news, certainly ahead of what's reported on the TV... :hi:

4. We discovered that
Everything that's ever posted here is actually disruptive or skipworthy, and rather than face the truth that nothing we say here has any kind of merit, the system was disposed of.

We don't like our irrelevance thrust into our faces so obviously. :P

5. After a dinner of McDonald's Arch Deluxe with a New Coke on the side....
Skinner decided against it, and promptly drove off in his Ford Edsel.
