Why? What makes you think nobody will have a chance to get banned next year?

How’s this?

I am C #3.
Sorry, KO. Couldn’t resist.

Happy New Year’s, guys.

His loss is great, but so is the gift his suffering brought.

“Socialism or Death!” for Cuba on dawning of 2000

By Andrew Cawthorne

HAVANA (Reuters) - Communist-run Cuba, which rejects Jan. 1 as the start of the new millennium, ushered in the New Year with exhortations of revolutionary fervor instead of the fireworks and street-parties seen elsewhere around the world.

…

Castro backs the view of some historians and experts that the new millennium does not begin until Jan. 1, 2001, because the Christian era did not use the digit zero and therefore started with the year one.

…

Following the government’s formal rejection of Jan. 1, 2000 as the start of the new millennium, there were no official celebrations like in other nations. Foreign residents and tourists in Havana, however, attended some special private dinners and shows in popular spots like the Tropicana nightclub or Old Havana’s picturesque Cathedral Square.

Taking their lead from Castro, the Caribbean island’s entirely state-run news media gave scant space to the worldwide millennium celebrations.

…

Communist Party daily Granma wished its readers a Happy New Year in a brief, front-page message. Inside the newspaper’s New Year’s Eve edition, a columnist picked out some quotes from Castro earlier in the year reminding his people that celebrations of the new millennium in 2000 were nothing but a “self-deception” and “great lie”.

…

Viva Cuba Libre!!! What a country!!!

Hey, Krispy, it’s real easy to get banned over at the Behinder’s site! Too bad they’re not letting any new posters register right now - I bet you could set a record.

But maybe not - you and ‘Monk’ might really hit it off. Unless you ARE ‘Monk’ . . .

Hmmm.

I think the Left Buttcheek people are being un-Christian. Jesus said, if somebody kicks your left buttcheek, you’re supposed to turn your rightbutt cheek, not ban them from your silly little board.

I just got here, is getting banned part of the initiation? Is there something special I have to do? Someone help me, I’ve fallen into the bbq pit and cant get up
