Hola! What's up? Licorice is just as hyper as ever (maybe even more ).

But as I, too, am a wary individual, I'm a little reluctant to sign my life away to a communist party based on what their spiffy, red-on-black website says.
Any advice?

Wait, what?

Exquisite, Comrade!

Gamma, did you not know I was a quasi-communist?
Now don't run. I'm a real communist. Not these weak Stalinists and such.

Not exactly.
Well, let's just say I'm anti-capitalist. Does that make it sound better?

[trolls' bane]

Everyone! Be ready for the arrival of my good friend from school, Melinda!
*prepares for a party, even putting aside his RPG for the moment*


*keeps fingers crossed that she will join today or at least within a week*

[trolls' bane]

Goodbye!

Wait! No! You will stay right there! Where is everyone? I've been the only person online in four hours!

I’m a modern man, a man for the millennium. Digital and smoke free. A diversified multi-cultural, post-modern deconstructionist that is politically, anatomically and ecologically incorrect. I’ve been up linked and downloaded, I’ve been inputted and outsourced, I know the upside of downsizing, I know the downside of upgrading. I’m a high-tech low-life. A cutting edge, state-of-the-art bi-coastal multi-tasker and I can give you a gigabyte in a nanosecond! I’m new wave, but I’m old school and my inner child is outward bound. I’m a hot-wired, heat seeking, warm-hearted cool customer, voice activated and bio-degradable. I interface with my database; my database is in cyberspace, so I’m interactive, I’m hyperactive and from time to time I’m radioactive. Behind the eight ball, ahead of the curve, ridin' the wave, dodgin' the bullet and pushin' the envelope. I’m on-point, on-task, on-message and off drugs. I’ve got no need for coke and speed. I've got no urge to binge and purge. I’m in-the-moment, on-the-edge, over-the-top and under-the-radar. A high-concept, low-profile, medium-range ballistic missionary. A street-wise smart bomb. A top-gun bottom feeder. I wear power ties, I tell power lies, I take power naps and run victory laps. I’m a totally ongoing big-foot, slam-dunk, rainmaker with a pro-active outreach. A raging workaholic. A working rageaholic. Out of rehab and in denial! I’ve got a personal trainer, a personal shopper, a personal assistant and a personal agenda. You can’t shut me up. You can’t dumb me down because I’m tireless and I’m wireless. I’m a non-believer and an over-achiever, laid-back but fashion-forward. Up-front, down-home, low-rent, high-maintenance. Super-sized, long-lasting, high-definition, fast-acting, oven-ready and built-to-last! I’m a hands-on, foot-loose, knee-jerk head case pretty maturely post-traumatic and I’ve got a love-child that sends me hate mail. But, I’m feeling, I’m caring, I’m healing, I’m sharing-- a supportive, bonding, nurturing primary care-giver. My output is down, but my income is up. I took a short position on the long bond and my revenue stream has its own cash-flow. I read junk mail, I eat junk food, I buy junk bonds and I watch trash sports! I’m gender specific, capital intensive, user-friendly and lactose intolerant. I bought a microwave at a mini-mall; I bought a mini-van at a mega-store. I eat fast-food in the slow lane. I’m toll-free, bite-sized, ready-to-wear and I come in all sizes. A fully-equipped, factory-authorized, hospital-tested, clinically-proven, scientifically- formulated medical miracle. I’ve been pre-wash, pre-cooked, pre-heated, pre-screened, pre-approved, pre-packaged, post-dated, freeze-dried, double-wrapped, vacuum-packed and, I have an unlimited broadband capacity. I’m a rude dude, but I’m the real deal. Lean and mean! Cocked, locked and ready-to-rock. Rough, tough and hard to bluff. I take it slow, I go with the flow, I ride with the tide. I’ve got glide in my stride. Drivin and movin, sailin and spinin, jiving and groovin, wailin and winnin. I don’t snooze, so I don’t lose. I keep the pedal to the metal and the rubber on the road. I party hearty and lunch time is crunch time. I’m hangin in, there ain’t no doubt and I’m hangin tough, over and out!

(Wow! George Carlin is awesome. I've decided to memorize this to introduce myself everywhere I go...)

[The last sane person]

Isn't that the opening monolouge to his "When will Jesus bring the porkchops" book? I lent it to my dad, who took it with him, so I cant check.

[trolls' bane]

He also started two shows with it, I think.

[durinsbane2244]

yeah, a couple HBO specials.

People in the desert may not notice, but in some of the Northern hemisphere, it's getting summerish.

It's the sort of thing that draws people outside.

Not necessarily. It's just been on my mind this afternoon, and I'm interested to know what people think.

So what do you think, Jon?

No.

The main thing monagamy has in its favor is the reduction of vectors.

[Rían]

I believe in it in one sense - I know it can and does exist

Now if you mean believe in the sense of do you think it's good or right, that's another question!
