This team thingie...SUCKS

[Former_Member]

I used to love coming in here and mixing it up with everyone. Now, that we're all on the same team...it's harder to be rude. Somehow, the rules of etiquette that guide me through the real world , are seeping over into my forum world...and that sucks.

One of the main reasons I came to the political forum was so that I could quit being Pollyanna for a few minutes, of the day. I wanted to know what it felt like to be James Carville and say any idiotic thing that popped into my head, without fear of repercussions.

I just saw a biker team...maybe they're in the mood to blow off some steam. I've never actually been on a bike, but who knows?

Via con Dios.

p.s.
ShaNic is alive!!! ♥ I was getting a little worried.

[cigarboxbeads]

i think it depends on who is posting as to whether it gets 'rude' or not! ;>) heh heh

[cigarboxbeads]

i've wondered about shanic---have to go look for her- thanks for mentioning that, cottage.

( sorry if i 'wasn't' rude! ;>))) )

rip off that pollyanna costume and start causing a ruckus!


there ain't no china on the table here - paper plates and finger foods!

The biker group was made up of Pollyanna's...who knew? (Removes buttless chaps and helmet and dons the Pollyanna attire. Leaves the forum, muttering to herself...)

[Former_Member]

If the Egyptian people can remove Mubarak...why can't we take back the Etc. forums...I say we storm the walls...who's with me?

(Eyes buttless chaps sitting in the corner...but decides that it wouldn't be prudent to wear them while climbing.)

[Former_Member]

yeah, nothing buttless when climbing...splinters in all the wrong places for sure!

In my original post, I said...
"I wanted to know what it felt like to be James Carville and say any idiotic thing that popped into my head, without fear of repercussions."

I teed it up for people to take pot shots at me...and NO ONE did. OMG has everyone here turned into Pollyanna???

This SUCKS big time.

RIP, Mr. Swayze.

JJ & Manic, I've missed you.

[Former_Member]

[cigarboxbeads]

They are such a strange couple. I don't understand how they ever got together. Although...several times when I've seen them interviewed together, James has gotten all wound up about something and Mary has given him "the look" and he calmed way down. It was pretty interesting to watch.

At last...someone that hasn't donned her Pollyanna outfit...thank-you!

[RenegadeHeartStudios]

Just poppin' in to say "hey" to everyone. We have been on the road for so long I missed most of the end of etc. I just now figured out that there was a team. Pretty sad, always enjoyed reading whether I posted or not. More later, maybe.

[Former_Member]

i haven't really been in the forums as much as before either, but it's not totally because of the change...just slackin'...so much crap on tv :P

[cigarboxbeads]

me too, crazy---i've joined some other teams--yeah- why, when i don't really have time for my favs?/??/
(some of them are *hardcore*- but hardworkin'!)

President Obama is already being outflanked by Nicolas Sarkozy, who has taken a far tougher line on Libya than his US counterpart. It is hugely embarrassing when even the French are doing more to confront a murderous dictator than the traditional leader of the free world. Frankly, President Obama makes Jimmy Carter look like General MacArthur by comparison. The US administration needs to wake up from its slumber and start showing some real leadership on the world stage in place of its existing milquetoast foreign policy.

Hope to stop by again soon.
