Actually granting Mod powers to newbies can be quite helpful. They go on a banning spree, and then we say he/she did it because they were new, and then we ban them. Of course we never unban the people that the newbie banned. It helps with the spring cleaning, so to speak.

I think people who live in Minnesota but can't spell "Minnesotans" should be banned to North Dakota. [Roll Eyes]

I'll ban anyone for five dollars (via PayPal) or a book from my Amazon list, at least for a day.

OK Daryl... I'll send you $150 to permanently ban 3 people I can think of right now. One is Brad.

(BTW: I'm not on "my" list!)

I hate when residents of my house/city/state/country do something unintelligent because then it comes back to me by association.

Nate wants to remind everyone that we don't talk like the people in FARGO, either, don'tchaknow.

Ryan if you become a mod before me, I will kick Richard Greco's ass. Since he is legal now, I can do that without getting in too much trouble. But I dont need to be a samurai to do that. I just need to show him a pic of a young girl who is almost legal, then while he is distracted, BAM!, a swift kick to the throat! [Big Grin]

Fair enough, Jeremy.
Cheers to kicking people in throats. [beer]

And I have my picture up, now, Nate, proving I have at least some sort of Asian in me (though some people have been known to guess Hispanic or Native American..). Since I guess it was too difficult for you to notice my heritage before, because, you know, we never work together or anything, you now have your proof (I like commas, apparently..).

Alright, you guys got me, I completely passed over the fact that you're from MN Ryan [Embarrassed]

I'll except your skills, however lethal they may be... especially since we're in the same turf [Smile]

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME!!! [thumbsup]

Just show me a pic of Hilary Duff. That'll distract me enough. Of course, I'm gonna see "A Cinderella Story" next week.

I think I'd rather be poked in the eyes with chopsticks for an hour and a half than sit through that 90 minute piece of trash. [thumbsup]
