Hey OJ! Long time no see! I see you're on the Porsche forum now. Did they finally kick you off the Ford Bronco forum?

Listen, I got evicted from my apartment in Malibu -- do you mind if I crash in your guest house for a while until I find a job and get another place?

You're singing the same sour notes over and over again. I think the reason you have a chip on your shoulder is 'cuz your Boxster forum is dead (as you put it) and you want to find a lively community to fit in with and be a part of.

We in the 997 Forum community will deal with our own issues the way we see fit. If we decide to handle things a certain way it's up to us alone to decide.

So why not follow your own advice and lighten up.....and lose the chip.

Re "toughen it up?" There is the potential here for sucking the life out of this board. I hear no mandate for expanding the role of "enforcer". As I recall, Porsches are such great cars. I'll tell you all about my $255 oil change some time.

"We..." "We..." "We..."

OCBen, in my opinion it is very odd and even slightly embarassing that you frequently and routinely presume to speak for everyone here. Good luck with that.

I'm just doing my job and don't really need any help at it from anyone, thanks.

Marc
p.s. I don't have a chip but at least I have shoulders, unlike DM.

Hey Marc, that wasn't directed at you! ... I was just citing your authority. .. Sorry for the mix up!

Yeah, DM sure has some lame shoulders, doesn't he? .. LOL

My mistake - sorry. I re-read your post and "get it" now. Oops, my bad.

Okay, on the count of three how about a big group hug.

Just don't turn off the lights. That kato character might get the wrong idea.

So, I just got off the phone with a friend of mine and I have to share her story. She was at work and preparing to take a dump,...she lowered her pants and as she did so she heard her cell phone drop into the toilet! She stood up and turned around to fish it out when the auto flush engaged!!!!!!!!
Yep, down it went,....holster and all....I **** you not (no pun intended). I have asked her to get the model number of the toilet for me as I would like to install one at home.
Anyhow, thought an ice breaker would be a good thing right about now.
