Why you smart-ass. Let us in on what it means! How the hell else are we ever going to be introduced to Esperanto?  
(Don’t give me a damn link. Just want to know what the quote meant.) 😉

Women’s Artistic Gymnastics. Of course, that’s just my wild ass guess.

If there are any pics of them comparable to the US women’s beach volleyball team don’t hold out!

There isn’t enough Stoli in all of Russia to make that happen. ::shiver::

Who’s your intended audience for these threads, then? If you don’t care what “most people on this board” think, then I can only assume that you’re not trying to convince them that Bush is whatever bad thing you think he is. So for whose benefit and what purpose do you start these threads?

I was referring to voiced opinions of myself. For me to care what anyone thinks about me I have to care about them.

Understand?

So? GW deserves nothing but our scorn and derision, so I don’t see the problem. If you don’t like the threads that Reeder starts then don’t read them.

He dips his head too far to be looking at any notes. My guess is he noticed a small bulge in his pants that he had never experienced before. . . .

In re: **Reeder** ’s “obsession” with Bush: I think I’ve figured out the real deal. He isn’t really obsessed with Fearless Leader’s every tic. He starts these “moronic” threads just to get a rise out of the kneejerk Bushites. And it seems to work!

Wouldn’t have enough time in the day to dogpile on all the pittings by all the liberal (and conservative as well) posters regarding Bush. There are quite a few pittings in the SDMB on Bush that are warranted, but I stick to the most asinine pittings to respond to. In this regard, **Reeder** and a couple other posters usually are the initiators of such pittings. **Brutus** and **duffer** are usually the first-line responders to such pittings. I can’t hold a candle to these guys. Why don’t you start your whining session with them?

Care to take the time and see what I post about? Go look at my profile. I’m not the dogpiler you think I am.
