1. General Questions.
2. Comments On Cecil’s Columns.

And that was it and how it remained for a long long time.

I absolutely draw the line at a “What Kitchen Utensil I Got Stuck Up My Rectum” Forum.

In another thread (Things you dislike about the SDMB in The Pit), something suggesting sequestering all Bush – pro and con – threads. I suggest the forum be called “The Bush League(s).”
