Dave H Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 <font size=6>Good Morning, Maggots!! </font size=6> Well, it seems most of our <font size=1>penguin</font size=1> "friends" have decided to go away. That has got to be a good thing. Originally posted by Soddball: (snip) As punishment for making me create another scenario, you must play Inferno against Snarker. :mad: <font size=6>GRARGHRARRGHRARGRAHRGRHARG!! :mad: </font size=6> Since I'm already playing Inferno against Snarker, that must mean I'm being punished, too. Does this prove the saying that "No good deed goes unpunished"? Axe, it's possible this answers your question about karma. Speaking of karma, how about a golden oldie for December 30? "Instant Karma's gonna get you Gonna knock you right on the head You better get yourself together Pretty soon you're gonna be dead What in the world you thinking of Laughing in the face of love What on earth you tryin' to do It's up to you, yeah you Instant Karma's gonna get you Gonna look you right in the face Better get yourself together darlin' Join the human race How in the world you gonna see Laughin' at fools like me Who in the hell d'you think you are A super star Well, right you are Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Well we all shine on Ev'ryone come on Instant Karma's gonna get you Gonna knock you off your feet Better recognize your brothers Ev'ryone you meet Why in the world are we here Surely not to live in pain and fear Why on earth are you there When you're ev'rywhere Come and get your share Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Yeah we all shine on Come on and on and on on on Yeah yeah, alright, uh huh, ah Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Yeah we all shine on On and on and on on and on Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Yeah we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posting lyrics... :mad: :mad: :mad: Hey, Snarker, run any transplanted New Jerseyites off the road lately? By the way, did any of you maggots happen to see a link somebody posted on the GF a few days ago with a variety of tests designed to uncover prejudices? I tried the first couple and came up with strong prejudices against the Jewish religion and against the people who are handicapped. I'm going to try some of the other tests, because it's really eye-opening to have subconscious feelings made so obvious.

That scenario still ranks up in my top 3 PBEMS of all time (Snarker and Keke hold the other two spots.) If I recall correctly, Kneiber Dam was also my first PBEM against Dave. P.S. I won. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave H Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 Axe, did you feel that hot gust of wind that just blew through here. It came out of the east, like it was from the far-distant, mythical land of OHIO!! Let's see, it seems there was somebody who told Boo that he was the wind beneath his armpits or something. Who was that? I'm sure this is all his fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
