i like the fact that every person from the DMF who i have met in person is exactly like i expected (based on interactions here.)
makes me want to get to know even more of you

(ok,...most of you.)

I haven't run into any of you in person yet, so I still like all of you.  [bacon]

Gentlemen, you can't fight in here, this is the War Room.

There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man.  The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self. And in bacon.

whats remarkable is that there are a few folks here who i have "known" for so long (here and TOB) that i sometimes have to remind myself that i actually haven't met them in person.

I'll take this in another direction,

I love that this site is so easy on the eyes, literally.  After dicking around here for awhile and going to eBay to find the latest Corse widget I wince, SO BRIGHT!  Part of this may be that my monitor is a 52 inch TV...

Thanks Admins for getting the look perfect!

It was heavily discussed when the DMF was being formed as to the color scheme and tone.  We decided that we like the look of TOB so we kept it.  ;D

It's gotten to the point where I've started saying "I saw this really cool thing on... somewhere on the internet, I forget where..."

Yep, I've tried that too and the wifely unit also sees through my weak attempts at hiding the addiction. [laugh]

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."
