Sam, you’d be really surprised meeting some of the B’stoner people. I was! No one is as you imagine them, and everyone I met was really nice, including Rob. You don’t have to give out your real name.
You should go.
Benson, are you going March 19th?? I might have to re-think this.
I read a forum that uses phpBB and it has a “Friends and Foes” feature.
You add someone to your “Foes” list and it’ll hide all their posts. Very convenient little feature.
And just to throw this out there, “tax and spend” is, I think, the most overused, and misused, political description. Governments tax and they spend the revenue, it’s what they do. The issue is how much tax and what it is being spent on.
Although, I’d be in favor of testing out a tax and not spend government for a while, a “for profit” model. We all buy shares and then get dividends at the end of the fiscal year. How’d you think that would work out….
I think if you go around the corner from your place, you will see that I put up my flag on the holidays too.
Come on, Sam, come to the get-together!! You don’t have to provide your full name. Everyone wants to see our favorite curmudgeon. It’s like having your crazy old uncle come to the Thanksgiving dinner. Hey, Rob is going to be there (he’s getting a permission slip). You can meet him in the flesh, and see that he exists.
benson, yes, I like to put out the flag on holidays, it’s just one of those american traditions I like. No biggie. But some were insulted by it. perhaps because they were overcome with political rancor or becuase they felt that the flag symbolized the current administration rather than the country. Or maybe they just don’t like their country, I mean that’s not uncommon.
Everyone is on a “The What” trip today on the open thread. I don’t even read his posts. I miss what the fascination is all about. Anyway, all the more reason to keep my brownstoner relationship strictly electronic.

-Sam…
“Everyone is on a “The What” trip today on the open thread. I don’t even read his posts. ”
But take the time to comment on them…
“He attacks anyone he thinks is a yuppie and sides with anyone he thinks isn’t. That’s his politics.”
This comes from a Retard that want to live in Ocean Hill… Mopar represents one quality I can not stand in people, Ignorance…
Hey Benson I’m waiting for you you F***** Hypocrite! Maybe you and Sam can play “Flag Tag” with each other….
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…

Yuppie is code.
As is idiot.
sam- I honestly can’t tell if benson was being nice or insulting you by comparing you to his crazy old uncle!
But benson- you’re my favorite curmudgeon (apologies to sam).
If I had the time, I’d put together a dictionary of What words and Whatisms.

I used to think The What was white (and a white racist), until he started in on the “code” thing with Dave. You can’t make that stuff up.
He attacks anyone he thinks is a yuppie and sides with anyone he thinks isn’t. That’s his politics.
I like the part of him that comes out of nowhere to lambast some idiot asking about how to turn a building into an SRO.
