The whole no nonsense thing gives me a "Repent, Harlequin!" Said the Ticktockman vibe. Now if we can only figure out how to rain down thousands of multicolored jelly beans down on Jonah.

I just got my tuxedo for the prom. Unfortunately, I realized that "coral" is actually pink rather than blue and now I look like an idiot.

My school didn't have a prom, supposedly because of concern that blacks might dance with whites. Desegregation came while I was in 6th grade; whether proms occurred before then, I have no idea.

I don't know much about fashion, but I know this: Clothes don't make the man, it's the other way around. If you wear something confidently, it will look good. If you are uncomfortable with your outfit, though, it's obvious, and no matter how nice the clothes might be, they won't look good. Own the coral! |

After a 12 hour day I still got to wait for my beer to get cold. Stupid state liquor laws. 30 more minutes and it should be cold enough. Though I have drank warm beer it's usually Guiness.

If beer tastes good, it doesn't have to be ice-cold. Anything ice-cold will be refreshing, but good beer will still be good at any temperature.

That's the problem it's cheap beer. Stroh's. Lol. I don't have much income to spend on beer so it's quantity over quality tonight.

The only beer that needs to be ice cold is crappy grocery store pilsners. The extreme cold numbs the taste buds and you don't realize how lousy it tastes. That's why the commercials want you to keep it super cold.

Luckily, I sent a picture of the vest to my date and she said it looked good so I'm feeling more optimistic about it. Speaking of beer and other alcoholic drinks, I've decided to skip on the after party of the prom. I know everyone there will be wasted and I hate being the only sober person at a party. |

Should just bought some red wine. It's always ready to go. |

Since we apparently have no restrictions on post length anymore, would there be any interest in my posting my DC novel "Lash House" here (the forum, that is, not this thread)? At a rate of, say, a chapter a day? Don't know what the logistics would be. Would we want a discussion thread? Or have I just tapped into everyone's secret fear that I'm actually an enormous egomaniac desperately craving validation? I'd just like to reward y'all somehow for the solidarity this crew has demonstrated in the last 24. Cei-U! I summon your thoughts on the matter! Absolutely, Kurt! Thanks! That would be great. And as for your fears about egomania, no worries. This is like the Legion. No duplication of powers. Dan B. from planet Dixie is Ego Lad. |

By the way, I emailed the CBR staff in regards to the banning I received. I surprisingly got a response.
My email:
Initial response:
Typed response I'm about to send:
Hopefully I don't get banned forever for "talking back". I'm trying to approach this in a civil way and get a better understanding of the order they've enacted so this doesn't all happen again. The entire principle of the thing just irks me a little bit. If you have rules I understand, but if you don't have set parameters around those rules, then how can one know right from wrong? Especially since CBR is really slicing and dicing on a thin line? I'm wondering if there is anything else I should ask...?
The ban seems to be lifted and I want to contact Jonah to discuss this in a civil manner, but I get the feeling that won't go too well.

To be fair my last thread deleted after no one would answer in Mega Chat insane thread (due to the fact there was a MILLION POSTS going a minute) was me asking what the real limits were now on CBR. How far could I go anymore ? What is the line where its too negative and get things deleted ?
Basically I joked around that I was a man who made a cannibal thread and more. I guess Jonah saw my "No Thank You" thread and leaped to TROUBLE MAKER perhaps. He likely thought I was a shit stirrer and had to get me off the site. But had he read...I was leaving. I was going to Bleeding Cool forums and possibly Jinx Forum (and someone...anyone have an idea what they accept as E-Mail there ?) and post on FB Rita's page.
I never was angry with Jonah . I even understood why he wiped the forums after him and Hatcher explained it very cool to me. I was like...ok I understand. Lets try and make it work. But the over control of everything was just too damn insane. Its like Vince McMahon destroying ECW . Where as had he stepped back and let Heyman run the friggen thing , it would work. Instead Vince felt he needed to be IN CONTROL of everything and within 3 years he killed it.
