Re: Hails to y'all from Satan Herself
Ah yes, the "What's Elaine's Problem" quiz remains one of the funniest thing you (or anyone else) has ever published on the net. Remember Eaglebeak ? That absolutely demented character out on a quixotic crusade to defend the postumous honour of his ghastly, unsightly eyesore of a Russian Emperess? He was a true "old school" lunatic gentleman along the lines of Erich von Stroheim in the Grand Illusion. They dont make them like that anymore!Not many loonies visit BtN, and those who do are of the teenybopping variety at the Lounge -- they are humorlessly swatted upon by the moderators on sight:(As far as the old gang is concerned, I have no news whatsoever from Davidh. Sarahjeanne is getting married pretty soon to some luckybastard, and Phyllis is the remaining Kabbal-ero to still occasionally post, but at the Lounge. I havent given up on anagrams, here are some recent samples:An equal opportunities employer = I put some inept queer on a payroll
The Twentieth Winter Olympic Games = We compete in thermal tights, yet win
Heel claims ~ me, AchillesSince we last spoke, I have a new son (5 mo), Constantine Julian (Constantine was my dad's name, but also happened to be a horrible Byzantine Emperor, so I also insisted on Julian, who was my favorite one) and a Beagle, Hector.Whassup with you? What dark virtual venues have you been terrorizing lately? How is Pwcca (sp?) the MinPin?

Catching upTrust you, Bro' to dig up those old posts. What a fun trip down Memory Lane. :)"Not many loonies visit BtN, and those who do are of the teenybopping variety at the Lounge -- they are humorlessly swatted upon by the moderators on sight:("BTN has moderators now? I remember back when Mike was doing it all on his own (and probably wearing himself to a frazzle, too)."As far as the old gang is concerned, I have no news whatsoever from Davidh. Sarahjeanne is getting married pretty soon to some luckybastard, and Phyllis is the remaining Kabbal-ero to still occasionally post, but at the Lounge."Maybe Daividh will pop in again sometime. It'd be nice to run into him. Sarahjeanne is getting married??? I remember when her great love was the Cardinals baseball team! Phyllis is still around? I'd love to "see" her again. Her vampire "Sylphia Life" is still in existence over in Ravenblack City (if she remembers that)."I havent given up on anagrams, here are some recent samples:"BRILLIANT! You are, and always will be, the Anagrammaster! "Since we last spoke, I have a new son (5 mo), Constantine Julian (Constantine was my dad's name, but also happened to be a horrible Byzantine Emperor, so I also insisted on Julian, who was my favorite one) and a Beagle, Hector."I knew about C.J. -- you'd e-mailed me awhile back when he was born. Did you get my return e-mail to you? "Whassup with you? What dark virtual venues have you been terrorizing lately? How is Pwcca (sp?) the MinPin?"I've got a little pack of minpins now. Pwcca had moved on to a new family, though, but the ones I've got now are all permanent residents and I'm no longer doing the rescue thing. -- Nanaea

I'm a little late, but...Oh, that was a great post by Daividh about the paragraph police being punctual. I would *love* to use that on some people now... hehAnd wow, I think if I tried to post a game like that, I would be run off the boards right now. Classic.
What are the convulsions of a city in comparison with the insurrections of the soul?
Man is a depth still greater than the people.

*Laughing uncontrollably*This is such hilarious stuff! Kudos to all of the 'notable idiots' for giving me a reason to laugh besides a funny number plate I saw today! Well done to you, Pavlos, the artist formerly known as PriaposLovs, for bringing these up! I just wish I had been here ever since the board began...

"Were there any other notable idiots?" I think Pavlos remembers them better than I do. I'd completely forgotten about Eaglebeak! -- Nanaea
