Badge of honor?

How about this?

LOL!

Speaking of flame wars, I think the lot of us should have been banned during the Elian thing!

Oh my.. Dude, we were bad!

Buckeroo's a friend of mine. Every time he'd get banned he'd call me on the phone, just mad as hell. I needed to humor him out of his piss off. I'd chuckle and say "Really . How'd you do dat?" "God Buck, I've been trying for years. 'Guess I just don't have your talent"

Now when he calls it is "Guess what? with a chuckle in his voice.

Plus I do think it takes a lot of courage to get kicked out of the bar and show up the next day to buy more beer.

I love the guy.
