recognise bitches, the swift harsh pimp-hand of Travel Discussion Purity will smack down furiously on ALL transgressors.


Read this warning again and consider it your guide on how to behave on the travel board.

I forget I am still a moderator on this forum at least. The tender mercy after being designated Starfleet red shirt during Sarah Palin's ejaculation onto the national scene. I cannot nor have ever wielded the banhammer, but I will moderate with extreme prejudice outbursts of non travel related douchebaggery appearing on this most sacred of forums. But most likely I will just be erasing spam and trying to not assert myself again in case I lose my hall monitor privileges here.

In my heart of hearts I like to think I took one for the team. The internet forum equivalent of leading the forlorn hope assaulting the hordes of Sarah Palin posts and moving them into the gulag of the rants forum. But most likely Kurt was having to deal with too many moderators and him having to track down who did what when and to whom when someone PM'd him asking "where my did my post go?". Either way I was downsized, much to my relief after having to deal with Jumper's histrionics and Yorick's (RIP) unwanted epic pm's on moderation. Which I really should go back and read again, the irony might be a bit chilling.

Given that Yorick is now brown bread I think for posterity's sake you should post them. Last message and all that; he'd have liked that and even if he doesn't he can't sue you. Worst he can do is haunt you by whispering long rambling and tangential points into your ear at night. Do it.

+1 nowonmai and flipflap have turned into boring old curmudgeons without their devoted foil. The time has come.

I totally read that as "they spew mexican there" but instead of flying into a rage I laughed then cries at the plight of poor Mexican children.

Btw someone sent some fois gras as a grand opening gift for the bar. I had never had it before. When in France order the most painfully killed goose liver you can find. Just don't tell anyone back home.

While I'm there, I'll be meeting my mom at her best friend's house, in some wine-growing area in Southern France. For my birthday. Apparently they are taking me to a restaurant famous for its - I shit you not - humanely made fois gras. (Moar liek fois gross, amirite?) WTF, do they get the geese drunk before they ram those contraptions down their throats or something? Who fucking knows. Not really my cup of tea, but my mom did give birth to me and hopefully there will be other overpriced, beautifully prepared dishes the size of thumbtacks to enjoy, so I'm going to do it and love it. Still, French food has always seemed a little bit overrated to me - it's great, sure, but compared to well prepared Peruvian or Vietnamese cuisine? Not even close, and it costs ten times as much. Maybe it'll be different in the motherland. Fois gras, who even came up with that? Oh well. As long as truffles are involved it's all good.

When are they un-banning Penta, anyway? Will it ever happen?

Noooo..... my mom has always wanted to go to Spain, so I'm going to fly into/out of Madrid so I can take her to Barthelona and a couple of other places, then ship her back to her friend's house in France. I've never been to Spain either, though, the only thing I've got going for me is that I speak the language. I really need to make this fabulous for her and I'm a leetle nervous.
