Does FR need a ZOT category? (Vanity)

I have a wee tiny suggestion for Free Republic.

Is it at all possible to have a ZOT category, just as for General chat, or smokey back room?

It would be genuinely nice to have a place where the shame of so many trolls could be put on public display!

Thanks Mods!

No thanks necessary, Girl!
*hug*

(still waiting for my garlic...)

NOT!!!

Sounds tasty!

I have to call the embassy to make sure I’m allowed to mail it across the border.

Mad cow, and all that, you know.

OK, I just emailed the US Embassy. They should know the rules.

Did you watch any of the videos?

I need to watch them again, 5 times each, to make sure I remember what he says.

If the world goes to hell in a hand basket, I might not starve.

That actually gives me hope. :-)

"Purslane, smartweed, sumac, and lambsquarters."

When I was a kid, there was a reason we had vinegar at the dinner table.

Interesting, but dangerous. This stuff grows wild around my place.

Note also: This type of wild "food" is one of the reasons the very poor were able to survive the Great Depression (the one in the thirties, not Øbama's).

Hey, it's not her fault! The interpreter screwed it up. Who cares what her husband thinks, anyway?

Garlic, once a weed, is a cure-all for hearts and stomachs!!! How could the cows get into that? Milk would REALLY taste ugly with garly in it!!!

Ramps, or wild onions, grow wild in pastures where cows graze.

Note the fourth paragraph here.

The poor, in the 30's. recognized food when they saw it.

People don't know how to do that now.

[fanfan]

I dunno, Face.

According to a young Mom around here, garlic is ok.

It's chocolate that is the problem.

Random thought: how would a nuclear/ion[vasimir type] hybrid work, and what performance could one get out of it in the long run?
[probably not worth the thought ex, but it was a horrible and bizarre mental image in a dream.]

[Monkey Face]

Please, Bob...life is hard enough without pasture talk...
*snort* Been there!! Cud is still cud!

[Monkey Face]

Garlic and chocolate both give babies the “grunts” because of the effect they have on the adults.

In small doses, I suspect babies will adjust, just like we do.

"Random thought: how would a nuclear/ion[vasimir type] hybrid work, and what performance could one get out of it in the long run?"

That's not a bad thought. Under the right circumstances, such as a relatively high gravitational field and vacuum, as on the Moon, this might be the preferred engine.

Note that power is an external input. It's going to take a lot of power to operate the superconducting magnets, and to power the RF generators and antennae.

I'm thinking that this kind of device could lead to a truly multi-mode rocket engine, taking in atmospheric gases and heating them for rocket exhaust, then when transitioning to near space using the VASIMR system, and finally settling down to a low-thrust long-duration system for the long haul.

Random thought:

Is denial of denial a sign of denial?

A not so random thought:

Will “was stupid” be a quote will remember Obama for or a summary of his administration.

I had some chocolate on Thursday and Friday - Tom bought chocolate Weight Watchers bars, and I ate the first one without thinking about it. Frank didn’t care.

*choke* Good thing I haven’t got any coffee to mess up the keyboard and monitor...
