Oo, good guess but no. I didn’t realize that the posting style of that mini-series was similar to **Scylla’s**. Perhap’s it’s too obscure and I’m just the only one who remembers it vividly.

Well, it’s definitely ringing bells - especially the Princess Child and Queen Wife bits…

I wish I could fly. When I had a job, I didn’t have the time to fly. Now I have the time, and I don’t have the money. I sure miss flying.

This is not a post about me being gay. Sure, I’m gay, but I post about lots of other things. I’d be surprised if very many Dopers know I’m gay, which I am. Gay gay gay. This post, for instance, is not about me being gay. It’s about how I don’t always post about being gay.

I’m going to guess **Esprix** , but I don’t remember him having that much of a one-track posting history. I’m probably wrong.

Ray Lewis is an overrated has been and thug. The Ravens don’t even deserve to be on the same field as us. The Eagles have been exposed as chralatans against a real team and the Patsies were nothing but a vigorous scrimmage for the most dominating team in the league. Some might think it’s too early to start talking about the Hall of fame for Ben Roethlisberger, the greatest rookie quarterback in the history of the league but I am not one of those people. He will win his first ring this year but not his last. Tom Brady who? Don’t you mean “Joey Porter’s bitch?” It sucks not to be a Steelers fan because we’re about to embark on another Pittsbugh dynasty. Get used to losing, all you other losers.
