Thankfully I’ve got music playing. (Digital cable music stations).

(Does an earworm count as a disability you can sue for?)

This thread has become stupid. It started as a legitimate pitting and turned into schoolyard bullshit. I’m embarrassed for all of you.

This didn’t strike me as all that funny. For the first 10 seconds. Now I can’t stop laughing, which is difficult to do with a sleeping person just down the hall.

I love the dope.

Why would he use his full real name on an Internet message board? You’d think he would come up with something like HotWheelz to protect his anonymity.

Do a search on McGarry’s posts. You’ll find a, shall we say, rather interest take on those of us who don’t post using our real names.

I used my real name because I joined this board (in part) to discuss issues which involved the use of my name in news and online articles. I was saving people the brain work. By the way, who are you if I may ask?

Two things that jump out to me right now:  
[ol][li]I misspelled the word _interesting_ in Post #669.[/li]A question: What’s the record number of times in one thread that someone has stated they will leave the thread yet they still return to post in that same thread?[/ol]

I’m a guy who posts from his laptop while sitting in his easy chair. Do you want me to be more specific?

So we can all find him and friend him on Facebook, of course! What’s not to love about the easy going, light-hearted, carefree Jamie?
