    Default An impending truce....

    We will shortly be at peace here in our little Backroom world -- harkening back to a very old tradition. I thought it appropriate to wish all of you a:

    Merry Christmas
    Happy Chanukah
    Festive Divali
    Peaceful Solstice
    etc.

    as appropriate.

    I'm going to miss the weird news. Any chance of that thread being moved to the Frontroom for the duration of the down period?

    Over my dead body.

    Lemur and Hosa already get to moderate the Babe thread. Give 'em our Octosquids? Throw me a bone here!

    Enjoy Yuletide guys.

    Bring on the prezzies!

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    And it is stil not closed. Has the mandate of heaven expired? Have our headquarters been bombarded in Maoist style? Something seems amiss, Batman.
