Actually, you and Bumper been branded..... I think I've actually only started 2-3 threads on this board... like 3 months ago re: taxi daily rates, boy I got some lame feedback on that one!!!... I generally give some valid info before I get sidetracked and veer right and then Bumper steers left and then Electra jumps in front of the car and then we got a big ol mess..... but I just checked and thats not exactly against the rules... yet.... besides, if we stayed on topic, this board would be as boring and stiff as Loco....o and James would be stuck answering alot of trivial ???'s himself.... not my fault James started this, just as it's not my fault so many people ask ???'s about Tequila!!!

it was already in the wings, I just realized that since it takes about, like, 60 seconds to create a new forum, there was no reason to wait.

I think I see where you're going with this, James. Figure on putting all the bad eggs in one basket, eh? Not a bad notion. (Mind you, I suspect we're still all going to show up on the real forum to keep it lively and screwed up, as usual!) But how about lending this Looney Bin the same status as other areas? How about the caps on the "Off Topic Stuff" title, and when do we get into the pull down with the other topics? If you're gonna lock up all us animals together in one cage, you should at least throw us a bone!

You have but to ask, and you shall receive. Try this one on. Might just be appropriate, if I recall what you indicated you do as gainful employment, Tommy.

What’s In A Name?


A sportsman rented a dog at a hunting lodge and had wonderful luck with him. A month later, he went back to the camp and described the dog he wanted to the operator, as he had neglected to ask it’s name.

“Oh, you want Salesman.”, beamed the proud dog owner. “We’ve raised his rental fee from $20.00 to $50.00.”

The sportsman took the dog out anyway and enjoyed another fine day of hunting.

When he returned the following month, he asked for the dog called “Salesman” once again. The lodge owner explained the dog was now called “Super-Salesman”, and commanded a daily rental fee of $100.00. The hunter took him out just the same, insisting he was well worth the money.

The next month, when the sportsman came back to the lodge again, the owner greeted him with a sad smile. He said, “I’m sorry, but you can’t have your favourite dog this time. A couple of weeks ago, we made the mistake of naming him “Sales Manager”.
Now all he will do is sit on his tail and bark.”

Howzat, Tommy?

General Mangler, eh? Well exc-u-u-u-u-se me. I thought you said Sales Mangler (must have had one of Sharkey's beer bottles in my ear!), which might have meant you actually did a little work, from time to time. My mistake. I'll consider myself corrected and chastised.
