Van Basten II

With all the hoopla regarding the future of the board, was forgetting the pool. Washington, will make my other picks later.

Here's a test for Larry as a mod, how would you handle Good Speak and Dan feud ? Still wanna be a mod

By the way more than an hour after listening to this song, it's still bopping up in my head, whatever misgivings i have about it, give it high marks for catchiness.

Does this mean you don't want the the Best of Sonny & Cher?

I'd say that we have more important things on our minds right now than a freakin' avatar. This is the future of this board, no time for petty grievances.

All dressed and steamed. Gotta say, i've not eaten one since at least last summer, not very healthy these things.

By the way, i suggested the rule as an example of rules that could be set If we decide to make a list of do's and don't'. I'm not saying that this actual rule should definitively be included.

The idea of the rule is to avoid threads like we had previously where we had a member starting a thread to ask another member to take off his avatar or the one starting a thread about himself asking people to insult him.

Was able to listen to the first song here are my impressions, i intend to listen to the thing at least three times so these impressions may change . As the intro started i was expecting the worse, the tune was a little too cute for my liking, when the rest of the band joined, i enjoyed a lot more the groove of the song. Some of the riffs by the drummer were a litlle cliché. It is still fun stuff to listen, would like to hear more stuff from the group before making a definitive statement.

I always felt that this board needed little moderation, it basically takes someone who has the time to read all the threads, to see if there's something going horribly wrong. How about laying out some rules to inform what is allowed or not allowed. Per example no threads where the subject is a member of this board etc. For my part, to avoid conflict of interest i would like to see the moderators operating as mod 1, mod 2 instead of the name they are using as board members.

Is this board becoming like PBS, threads interrupted by members telling us to give money to run the thing. Seriously, i like the idea of giving money to keep it alive, let's see how much we can raise on the spur of the moment to figure out how long we can keep this baby alive and afterwards maybe a pledge drive with some prize on a regular basis. Maybe every 6 months or every year to keep the thing going depending on how much money we raise.

I never felt that the exchanges were that heated, i saw a lot worse from other sites. I do agree that when people start making threads about other people or themselves, it would have helped to have a moderator quickly shutting ithem down. As one of the naughty boys, i gotta say i always have some kicks about those thread but in the bigger scheme of things they're not a good thing. So, i understand the frustration. As one of the relatively new boys, i disagree with the notion that newcomers were unwelcomed. I had no problem intergrating myself to the group, here's a tip newbies, put a hot babe as an avatar , seriously i tried to respect people and take them for what they are and they did the same in return.

Just listened to the 6th CD of the Oliver Nelson.

The title symbolizes also what's happening with the board.

Is it april the first ? If it is indeed true, i am very sorry to see it go. Moderation wise i thought the board was doing fine, if that's the reason of the closing, it's was done in a way too dramatic fashion. And it would be overreacting by the administration. If it is a money thing, then that's another story but i'd like to read it from the administration instead of rumors spreading Since it's the thread to say goodbye, i enjoyed tremendously the interaction with the members of this board, there was a real notion of collectivity and helpfulness about spreading information whether it was about a recording worth checking out or tipping us regarding a sale going on. So thanks Jim and to all the members of this fine board. berenguerboxe@hotmail.com

Patriots in their last two games are not playing like a team that is going to remain undefeated. They'll win the Super Bowl but the 0 will go.

I have an headache reading that thread, having a bigger one understanding what its all about.

Yep, talk about the group of death Germans on the other seem to have a nice ride to the quarters. Could have been worse they could have ended up taking the place of Romania in our group Group A: Switzerland Czech Republic Portugal Turkey Group B: Austria Croatia Germany Poland Group C: Holland Italy Romania France Group D: Greece Sweden Spain Russia

Yeah i know, i'm talking about the current crop.

Yes indeed, women in Brazil will be very happy

To answer the question in the title of the thread, absolutely nothing. Public annoyance they are.

Finished listening to the Charles C & W boxset, the 3 first CD are well worth your money, the last is to be polite very ordinary, guess the well ran out of water.

Anybody bought the other Potter release that came out at the same time. 10 songs for anyone with a tentet. Some good bits but not as constant as you hope it would be but still a fine record.
