Happy Halloween!

Jasmine's Gallery: How to Craft:
Free Pumpkin (Jack-O-Lantern) Carving Patterns: George W. Bush

Right-Click on the image, and select "Save Picture As" to download the graphic to your computer. Open the image in your graphics viewer program and print. Next, cut out the black sections with an x-acto knife. Put the resulting template on your pumpkin, and you can trace through the openings with a felt pen to put the pumpkin carving pattern on your pumpkin.

If only I could afford a pumpkin... I would do it...

Are you proposing that we put this picture of our Maximum Leader on a gourd and stab it multiple times with a sharp knife? Be careful what you post, sir, the FBI is watching. They can waterboard you now, the President says it isn't torture.

indigoimac · Oct 21, 2006, 07:59 AM

That really doesn't look like him at all...sorry.

This will be moved to the political lounge in five posts (or less)...

I always suspected that Marden is a foreign agent...

(even though I'm not exactly sure what a foreign agent is)

Should be interesting once it starts to rot.

I suppose this is the closest he'll ever get to having a light go on in his head.

Umm, We all know it is the Secret Service who investigates threats against the President. And stabbing a round, orange gourd to make it look like the President is *definitely* threatening.

This Brandi Jasmine isn't a 14-year-old girl by any chance?

PM vmarks and ask him....

Dakar² · Oct 23, 2006, 08:05 AM

Nah, that's somewhat inappropriate and I don't think he'd answer.

I was just wondering if any of us proles knew.

I do. Not to speak for vmarks, but basically he (Abe) was taking a beligerent tone in PM correspondence with vmarks.

I was fine with him being here, but frankly I don't understand why his thinly veiled disguise was tolerated for so long. I just think it's disrespectful for somebody to lie to your face knowingly... It also didn't put him in good graces with any regular members, so I don't know what was going through his head in doing that in the first place.

Oh well.

Dakar² · Oct 23, 2006, 08:56 AM

Well, he does seem to like testing the limits of what he can get away with. I'm sure the fact that he wasn't immediately banned after his cover was blown made him bolder. Still, some actions are plain idiotic (From what you describe).

As much as I hate to make this comparison, he sounds like a kid playing on an internet forum after this latest round.

(Indeed, that last week or two the tone of his posts changed, and he became less clever and articulate and more aggressive and rude, IMO. Dunno why, but I definitely feel like there was a change)

I could think of a number of reasons.

His post & run style news re-posts definitely violated the forum rules.

Well, I don't think he was posting duplicate threads on purpose. But he may not have been checking before posting, either.

No, by re-posts I mean just taking some news from a news website, posting it here and adding a one-liner comment. This was clairly a flamebait strategy, you could also call it trolling.
