I'm sitting here looking at my new calculator. It's a TI-89, and it makes even less sense to me than one of Scandium's ramblings. I don't know why I even bought the damn thing. It was one of those money burning a hole in my pocket moments. So if anyone is interested in getting a nice shiny electronic thingamadoogie for a ridiculously low price let me know.

Sorry, my mistake. I didn't even see the classified section until I had already sent the post. Is it just me or do you sound a bit grouchy? Stressed out? You know what I do when I'm really stressed out? *Pick my nose*, it does wonders for the psyche. My problem is that I get most stressed out while I'm driving in a traffic jam. I don't see what the big deal is, but some people act like they've never seen a guy *eating boogers* on a motorcycle before.

Don't edit me dammit. I don't pick my nose in public, that's gross. I said that I masturbate. don't act like you don't do it to. Every single person who has ever read one of these posts does it. It's a part of life.

This is exactly the kind of post that needs editing. I will most likely edit ANY post with foul language, or sexual references, unless it specifically addresses the topic. I would like to keep this forum as clean as possible. And if you have a problem with me or my editing, I would prefer we deal with it in private. Lets have fun, but be respectful of the more sensitive members.

Thank you, Stephen. Here is another post that will be deleted in most cases. If you cannot stay on topic, your posts will be removed. Random song lyrics are not appreciated, unless the topic is music related, or the quoted lyric pertains to the topic. The moving text is pretty neat, but keep it to a minimum, it could get distracting, ok?

Just one bit of advice Zero, the only time a moderator needs to edit a post is, if someone complains about it.Changing the meaning of a post, like you’ve done to tribdog, is not editing its re-writing.

Well, what if I'm the one complaining or offended? And do I really need to wait for someone to be offended before I edit something? I asked tribdog to contact me to talk about it. I also suggested that he could edit his own posts, and I will suggest it to everyone else, as well. If your post is edited by me, you will be informed of it. You always have the option of editing it yourself later to preserve the meaning of your post without potentially offending anyone. I'm not trying to be a bad guy, but I feel that if I err, it should be on the side of caution. And I really want to do a good job mentoering, so help me out here. Thanx for the advice, though. I'll keep it in mind.

LOL, you guys make me laugh. You have to understand, I'm easy. The day I "really" get upset about anything that happens to a message board is the day I sell my computer.

*bump******************************* A truly open mind has to be open to the possibility that a radical idea, however exciting, may prove to be a load of codswallop!
