An Observation

Socialism is much like that camel that sticks it's nose in your tent,
If you don't give that camel a swift swap on the nose and chase it out,
The camel will move into the tent with you and proceed to trash it,
Forcing you to either live in squalor, flee, or violently throw the camel out,
First option means you surrender to being put upon in your own tent,
Second option means you have fled your own tent and hope the camel does not follow,
While the third option signals you accept responsibility for your previous foolish actions and now seek to fix things,
The moral of this little story is clear, choose wisely to stop foolishness early.

rather than chase the camel out... how about we kill it and sell the meat. Capitalism in action. To hell with the camel.

I'm blocked.

I'm blocked also. Was that from updinging a comment (that I thought was benign)? I never go to the threads beacuse I've heard of this random blockage. Sad. Now what? Will miss the crew... darn it.

Wow, I'm blocked also guys. Apparently somebody got tired of free thought in the lounge?

Rose said...

It's not quite the same but I opened a parachat room here

If you feel like it, stop in and see how it works.

I'm really sorry guys, this is my fault.

Rose said...

Yes, all we did was upding a guy who was telling the truth - a guy who was getting picked on for doing so.

Not even a downding!

Pyro and I are chatting - it is working. Not hard to set up.

Roses, after holding out a day in the Lounge the blocking finally caught up to me sometime today. So yeah am blocked.

Ornery Elephant and Grouchy Clam Eater are also blocked.

Will check out what you set up. Anyone get an email exlaining our exact transgression?

Rose said...

I didn't get blocked- yet. Just downdinged charlie though- heh heh- someone wrote bring back the lounge- he said no- I down dinged him. That place is Nazi like now. WLN is a total asswipe as usual- can't wait to try the new place. Going there---NOW!
