Why do so many people go through the motions of registering here just for the express purpose of getting banned? Shouldn't you be either looking for a job or studying for your fifth-period social studies exam right now?

edit: good to meet'cha Jerry, learn the value of the 'ignore' feature, and the lounge can be fun.

If you look at his location, you might realize that Mpls is an abbreviation of it. But I suppose you'd equally have a problem with "NYC" as being a random string of letters.

Jerry:

Take a walk over to the "Wild Side": Political Forum. Or start a thread on religion. Or start a thread on why PCs are better than Macs. All of those subjects/topics will quickly envelop and overtake you.



In the meantime, what's yer hardware?

I'll never cease to be amazed by people who think any of Guest's films even come close to the comedy gold that is "This is Spinal Tap." But whatever. I'm sure you'll settle into your place here eventually. What's wrong with being sexy?

How do you like your iMac? I'm thinking of maybe getting one in the next couple months, and I can't decide between the 15" and the 17"....

Hi, Jerry. Nice to see more people from Minneapolis on here.

(I'm in Madison for college, but Minneapolis is my home.)

There seem to be an awful lot of Minnesotans (or at least midwesterners) here. What's up with that?

(I'm currently in Northfield, MN myself, 30 mins south of Mpls, though I live in California, am from New Jersey, and after I graduate in May will hopefully be living in Japan.)
