Apparently it is.

Puffy Treat wins the whistle race, but El JT de Spang does get special recognition for texting my cell phone. That only applies while I'm out of town, though, so those of you who do have my phone number won't get special recognition during normal business hours.

There's a girl at my work who I swear is the spitting image of Heather Locklear, it's really freaky.

Review of spam:

Remarkably passable english right up until last sentence. Ended on cliffhanger -- where or what was the rest of the 'set' after 'the jump?' Despite many questions left unanswered it was still a remarkably insightful bit of commentary on the kind of news we would care about if we were shallow celeb porn hounds who could not tell that our sources were obviously meant to pimp some spyware site hosted in Ukraine. B+. Will report again.

I'd make a joke involving LOLcats but I'm scared of what would come up in a google image search.

Let the dobies commence!

I hope this gets pulled soon. I clicked on the links thinking that there must be a movie with the thread's title name in production. A play on words.

Nope...it was porn and this is a public computer.

*Grrrr*

EDIT: Obviously I didn't read the entire first post before I middle clicked the first link to open up the new Firefox tab.

Pop's out of town, and probably not having many opportunities to check on the forum. It's just a case of bad timing.

I've alerted him through other means, though, so I'm sure he'll handle it when he gets to a computer.

Actually I like seeing something like this once a month or so. It reminds me why I hang out here more than any other forum...

If I were her, I'd old-lady-waddle right up to you and smack you.

I'm sure they're planning to have that in the new forums.

That is a large part of why they want to switch the forum software, I think.
