Uh, not sure what happened there with the double post. I think there must have been a server fart.

[Asimovian]

@cmkeller

Asimovian - Atlanta? Is that a mistake, or an intentional comment on the state of the Hawks?

Heh…I realized my mistake afterwards, but it just goes to show how little attention I pay to basketball these days. I honest-to-God thought the Hawks had moved and taken on another name because I haven’t heard a word about them in years. I suppose the Lakers and Clippers don’t play them very often because I haven’t seen a Hawk-related highlight since I don’t know when.

@SSG Schwartz

True, but the answer doesn’t have to be right or wrong, just the most popular.

Oh, I know. That’s why I was specifically looking for a factual answer to the question, which What Exit? provided.

I am waiting to see if Puerto Rico becomes a popular answer for that question.

The post immediately following yours made that very worthwhile.

[ZipperJJ]

Zebra, specify your Hull!!

@Asimovian

The post immediately following yours made that very worthwhile.

[tesseract]

Hey guys, we need more competitors for this game! Ten more! It’s fun! It’s friendly! It’s Family Feud!

OK I just realized that no honest competitor will read my post, but it serves the purpose of bumping…

These questions were ridiculously hard. I wonder what the furriners are thinking…
