Red,
isn't this the sort of thing that should be in Jet Blast?


SilsoeSid,
What the hell are you talking about. Please reduce the dose by half!

Sorry trimpot, obviously you're a frustrated non-moderator.

Instead of trying to join in I'll just delete my post so you can have this forum all to yourself........happy now?

Red Wine,
I hope no offence was taken, none was meant.

SilsoeSid,
A question for you, "do you have to have a long neck to be a goose?"; and in answer to your question, "who cares?"

My, my, it would seem that you can dish it out but you can't take it! I won't waste anymore of Danny's bandwidth with you.

Wowww

Siloe

Get a grip and keep it to jet blast. It is like coming accoss a couple that have just split up, (Or are you just having a period)??

You know repression can be a bad thing, (especially with a big stick between your legs)

Red Wine,

Were you bored and drunk when you posted this thread? Well heres two pointers. Pprune and alcohol dont mix, and when you are in the middle of no-where, COUNT Stars

Trimpot

Don't bite so easy. You wont last long here if you do (Flare Dammit, Labrynth Seal etc) Chill Winston

MD

P.S No i dont want a moderators job

I don't know

It doesn't help when a thread is started, you try to help out and then the original post is edited.

Then the band wagon gets crowded by people who don't even know the plot well enough to lose it.

By the way MD 900 XP, you may notice I didn't start this thread so how can I "keep it to jet blast"?
There goes that band wagon again!
