OP OFFICIAL TIME-OUT. You people are slipping! Messed up letter order, drunken freebie posts, one word groveling, wimping out on **X** and **Z**. Come on people! I know it’s a weekend, but this is deplorable! I expect better output tomorrow. Don’t make me call a meeting! ---

**T** o some it might appear to be one word “groveling” but I prefer to think of it as the most efficient use of the language. I guess we’ve been told. Wheaties for everyone tomorrow for breakfast! ---

**C** ertainly this doesn’t deserve it’s own thread so I’ll put it here. **D** id you guys see Spongebob Squarepants on the March 8th SNL? **E** ars I have and that sounded and looked exactly like him while the Powerpuff Girls sounded funny. **F** or the life of me I can’t imagine that Nickelodeon would consent to putting their character into such an adult situation but they would have had to, right? Cartoon Network too. Or is this a parody and ok? **G** uess it’s possible but it just seemed so political that they usually keep away from stuff like that. **H** owever it could be that they’re trying to introduce him to a more adult audience in anticipation of his movie next year. **I** don’t know, it was very funny but weird too. **J** ust makes me wonder. ---

**N** eed to have real small kids in the house (or a close relative with little ones) to know Sponge Bob. Thankfully our own graduated out of kids tv before the advent of Barney.
