    Default Backroom sabbatical

    Hello,

    The Backroom will be closed for a few days. Feel free to use any of the other forums, but not for spicy Backroom topics.

    This forum will close 11-22-06 24:00 GMT and open again 11-26-06 24:00 GMT.

    Ja mata

    In the US, we will be in tryptophan-induced comas or watching the gridiron marathon that is Thanksgiving weekend. Cheers to everyone else!

    Well I guess this leaves more time for getting drunk, watching football games, and reminising about throwing natives from their lands on ThanksGiving.

    Gasp! I have to be at work on Friday, without the backroom open I might actually have to work.

    Happy eating everyone!

    I was talking with someone from the Netherlands this morning on the phone describing to him why we have Thanksgiving Day off from work, my answer was so that we can gather our families together to eat and argue.

    Of course you are all invited to visit The Frontroom during this sabbatical.

    Please check your weapons at the door, but bring all the food and music you want.

    We'll be delighted to see you.

    You have got it all wrong, guys.

    This sab is on account of today's Dutch elections and the scenes of horrible bloodshed expected afterwards. If the acrimony were to spil over into the Backroom, all TosaInu's systems would overload.
