Cj! Still sportin' that beret and AK I see... which always leads me to picture you as Dweezil Zappa in Schwarzenegger's The Running Man.

By the way, Dom Perignon and Caspain Sea caviar are awaiting you in the Safehouse!

Evening all! I could finally get rid of my elephant I suppose, alwyas makes me a feel a fraud as i'm not American, but heck, I'd as soon vote Republican as anything, so I'll keep it for now.
Hey, don't forget we made you an honorary Republican!

Hello, Petra! Long time no see. I'm doing pretty good myself, thank you, and I certainly hope you are too. How are things in Hobbiton? By the way, I sent a "hi" out to ya at that other site a week or so ago, but I figure it might have been missed in the hub-bub. Good to see you again.

Hey. This isn't the CF political forums I know and love. Where are the thinly veiled insults, and the dismissive comments?

Careful, you guys might start to see past the little Donkeys and Elephants... Aiiieee, then your politicians will have to find a new way to devide a conquer.

Oh man, I thought that was loooong forgotten. You know, I had to add a disclaimer over my pic on another site: "I'm not Lt. Dan!"



Good to see you again, Syco! Haven't seen you around lately. Hope all is well, mate.

It may well have done - sorry I missed it. I've not been online very much the last couple of months, I've been so busy at work and when I do get a moment here and there, I'm usually too darned tired to read or say much. All those evenings I would sit up till dawn either arguing or playing are over - I'm often in bed by 10pm like an old nana, now!

I'll go check it out now that I know it's there, though.

It's winter in Hobbiton at the moment, and some things are good, somethings are not so good. My mum is in Germany being treated for cancer and between one thing and another, I've been kinda stressed out the last couple of weeks - but life goes on and I have a lot to be thankful for, too.

Well, I'm heading offline agin - I have a friend coming over soon for dinner, and we have some fresh Bluff oysters which are a rare treat!

Catch ya later, mate. Take care out there.


<----behold the evil *kiss* smilie, specially designed to frighten small children!

Ooh! Just came back from Washington a couple of days ago. Regular fireworks were just too tame this year. Had to go visit a live volcano to celebrate the 4th.

IT"s nice to see that so many people really want to meet each other and our willing to look past opposing political views...
we are always .. it's nice to have a place to chill and cool off from a heated debate.
