I'm not with al Qaida, but I'm thinking of joining...

I've been trying to get a traffic ticket which I received while in the state of California cleared from my record. I paid the ticket a long time ago, and they have a record of this. However, the people who took my money apparently aren't inclined to inform the court of this, and the California Superior Court isn't inclined to accept this information.

Meanwhile, I can't get a South Carolina drivers license because their is a block on my Colorado license. If I can't get a South Carolina license, that means that I have to pay out-of-state property taxes on my house on HHI, which is FOUR TIMES the amount of the in-state property taxes.

All because of the state of California...

Is it wrong to openly wish for al Qaida to strike the state of California?

Just kidding! I know it's the right thing to do! Go get 'em bin Laden! Tell 'em Sailhog sent ya!

Just got off the phone with Osama! Jeez, what a great guy... He listened to me rant for about a half hour, and then told me his own horror story about the DMV in Islamabad. He described it as "totally dysfunctional," and pretty soon I felt like I have it pretty good here by comparison. Anyway, he was saying that they're going to have to raise the membership fee for al Qaida from $25 to $50. You get a free travel bag and a paper weight with membership. In any event, I just mailed off my check!

Hawg,

You are making a mistake if you expect a government worker to do his job correctly. Most I deal with don't even know their job, never mind doing it correctly.

Hmmm unleashing Jihad on the DMV might just do the trick.

Brian,

I just wanted you to know, that while you were away, I really took care of the place around here. I stepped it up a notch. Put some discipline in... really ran a tight ship. These ruffians weren't used to my iron fist but soon became intimately acquainted. Here's a recap.

I've banned Painkiller again because I don't like him.

Denby is a weenie and he's been fired. (I can't really ban him because there's a bunch of softies out there that find him all cutsie poopsy nice and they'd probably TP my car or something...)

Sway was demoted to assistant to the Sheepherder. (He started agreeing with sck and well they argued about agreeing...strange .. indeed)

CK was banned because he didn't buy a sailboat yet.

Sailhog made fun of me and I don't like him either (enabler indeed). Banned.

Xort is Llama #5. He wants higher but I won't give it to him. Banned.

blt2ski revived all the ignore threads. Banned. (Actually he didn't but I needed to set an example... you know how it is....) Also, it turns out he skis like a chunky 4th grader who's "been sledding once".

werebeagle
Banned... forgot why. I just know he did something though. I just got that *feeling*...

I can't even tell you what Bubb did. ohmigod gross. Banned.

Sailortjk... was helping Bubb the whole time. I saw it... Banned.

TxLngHorn introduced his wife.. CRAZY.... She seems like such a nice lady... Banned (cause I'm jealous... even people like THAT get a cool girl!?!?)

ChucklesR is the best commodore in the whole wide world (thanks to MMR). 13 reps.

Cam.
... he started blathering about Solar panels and sextants. Sway couldn't take it... and I couldn't take sway.. Banned.

SD
Banned just on principle. Gotta give the people what the want!

T34C
where do I begin? This guy's out of control. Made some disparaging remarks about my musical ability.... Banned.


Happy New Year and all that to you and your family. You may now go about your loosie Goosie style of moderation. I formally return the reigns!

Executive Deputy in Charge of Sailnet Police (with a Gun and Cape) is now "Off Duty"...

My work here is done.

Banned.

(self enforced... something about "we wouldn't let you have moderation powers if you were the only member of Sailnet" nonsense from the powers that be... it means they love me.)

PS.
It is now 4 deg. F here in Poland.. Going down to a lovely 'zero' in the next few hours.
