blah. “are you logged on”, “beeper stuned”, and “laz hit it” all need to be respectfully locked away in the lexicon of hopelessly overused FR catchphrases.

They took God out of our culture and taught him that he has no right to judge the cougars.

Big mistake.

The current mods are a bit much, aren’t they? You’d think they would lighten up during fundraising.
