Frankly, I’m surprised it didn’t happen sooner. today’s the first day I’ve tried to post since December 20, and to my surprise, I found out my posting privileges to the LBMB have been revoked.
Now I know how Groucho Marx felt when he was refused membership to a country club in Hollywood because he was Jewish: “I wouldn’t belong to a club that would have me as a member.”

Jeez Loiuse, JAB, where have you been?
You should be able to be reinstated, they’ve forgiven us.

No you haven’t, and frankly I’m offended at the insinuation…
[not really… but this is heading for MSPISMSMSIS real fast.]

**Jab** , welcome back.
They found us. Someone (OK, Phaedrus) ratted us out.
A board war ensued.
Everything is better now.
Navigator, Mike M, Lauralee and a few others are still posting here.
We like them.
For more details, see the “For David B” thread.
Cool, huh?

I’ve been in Texas, where none of my relatives has a computer, nor is there a library close by.
In case you were wondering, I tried to post on a thread that was discussing “speaking in tongues”, or “glossolalia.” Naturally, I took the point of view that it’s a hypnotic and/or epileptic state induced by religious fervor that manifests itself in uncontrolled, incoherent babbling. I even provided a link to [Britannica.com](http://Britannica.com) to back me up.
Just as well, I guess. Anyway, I’m glad to be back here.

I was just thinking, "I had better e-mail JAB tonight because when he gets back, he’s going to be **really** confused!

JAB, email “Admin” over there. They should have given your permissions back. If they haven’t already, asking them to should get you back.

[still trying to keep this a debate]
Are you saying that they don’t have computers in Texas???
I offer my possessions as evidence to the contrary…
Now we just need to work on proving my existance…
[There is some nuggets for y’all to chew on!]
Peace.

You cannot prove your existence because … [people throwing tomatoes at me…] All right, all right already.

I figured there must have been an amnesty of some sort, Mike, because I saw that SoulFrost was posting again on LBMB. But I think I’ll pass - one board really _is_ almost too much by itself, and besides, with you, Nav, LauraLee, etc. over here (haven’t seen Pariah in a few days, though), we’ve got enough of a party on this board. 🙂
Pass the chips, please!

Chips? I thought Left Behinders only consumed popcorn and root beer.

Sounds like a spot I might be interested in. Would someone please post the boards URL?

No, but in another thread I offered Texans as a proof of human evolution since they are clearly human but a completely different species.

Well, the ones that have been spending time over here are getting more _variety_ in their diet these days. 😉

RT, I know at least one lady poster who gets very upset at having the crumbs lie. :rolleyes:
