jon_j_rambo Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Dude, Just because the Ladder thing isn't working out, don't let it bother you. Don't take the world's problems on your shoulders. Instead be a player. Let the dust settle & ZappSweden take over. Don't take anything personal because you're new to the scene. This whole Ladder thing is a competitive thing before your time. But, if you want to quit & leave......Let the door knob hit you, where the dog should have bit you. Rambo-Hollywood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Dave Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 The great grandson didn't know, no, he couldn't, since as we know HISTORY in the second-person singular, utterly subjective History books, is not REALLY... any real history at'all, well Anyhow, he was a'digging through the spider scuttling stacks up in that thatched attic (... and here, we allow that this whole Idiot's story may actually be... a figment of that young dude's bristling IMAGINATION... a REM dream one night when the moon was O so slightly blue) and Lo! and behold, He chanced upon an old letter of Great Grampa, who was one of those anonymous Desert Rats who witnessed up close and personal Herr General Rommel's clanking-chained War Machine... and so the coddled (... well, was he? we shall soon enough see, then the alarm goes out! whence The Scourge is, once again, roaming free) youth settled in amongst the dust motes and GAH! those ubiquitous spider webs!! and read... ***************************** Dear Delores, my always Luv, forgive me delerium, I can't think so good anymore, it's all that smoke and anti-godlin' screaching noise and... Satanic 88s! O, what stooped creature, What a whistling beast... indeed! What scourging demiurge? Evil as blood-bellied spiders Woven in bristling covens... o'er An innocent's swaddled pale crib Could dream up! Such a cunning doom-gun As this, As these... Satanic 88s! Could seal such a quick silken Hell! While the babe, and! The screaming sick Mother Are lost - O notice The brittle bleak voices! In the harrowing throes, And ever & ever it shall be so... Of a slow... slow tolling bell... Yers, Fer as long as I ken hold out, Mick the Knife ************************ Well, The great grandson learned a little something That day. Easy to say - defeat! that ever-insistent Evil, Only... leave ME to my spider-free Curds & whey! And BTW, Stick around 88, Looks like there's gonna be! An SC2... ain't it Great! To anticipate! :cool: [ May 21, 2003, 11:58 AM: Message edited by: Immer Etwas ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyJohn Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Great story, poem and moral Immer's. 88MM Okay, so this forum tends to be ungrateful, obnoxious and insensitive -- but look at it's good points!

Iron Ranger Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 88MM, you time is your own, so you can do what you wish, But; I took a quick look and didn't see your name posted on the most resent 6 pages in the Opp. Finder Forum. How did you expect to start games if you don't look for any? On the flip side thanks for looking after the ladder this month. Anyone who volinter's their personal time to any group should be appreachated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyJohn Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Iron Ranger -- "... thanks for looking after the ladder this month. Anyone who volinter's their personal time to any group should be appreachated." Exactly. You deserved better but you shouldn't leave over it. There's a lot to this Forum beyond the Ladder and direct competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
