Why was a founding member of the FreeRepublic LLC 501(c) board banned by a modmin/admin who is no more than a volunteer sitting at home on a ego trip?
How many thousands of archive pages were just fractured due to this foolishness?
Not only should a full explanation be given to the public, the admin who approved this measure needs to be publicly named, and publicly defend the position.
THis is the most abject failure of the modmin system that John Robinson devised in the history of FR since the rebuild in 1999.
If the admin powered individual was anyone other than current or former formal members of the LLC, the admin must be removed from the admin level and any admins who want to defend that admin should also make themselves publicly known and defend their position.
This banning is an indictment on the failure of the admins of this website. That is putting it politely.
That kind of talk will get you the zottage for sure.
That is Mrs. Noobie to you.
It's more fun when they fight back.
First glance and someone might call that overkill but in this case it’s apropos. Darksheare hasn’t always fled by the side door.
Pizza, giant insane killer rabbit, hordes of coffee’d up deer, hard to tell in the dark with only a flashlight and several twisty passages all alike and one release button each.
I sent the dang pizza.
The housewife mods didn’t relax security and there are TWO drivers down now.
Like that’s my fault.
Do you make house calls? Cause I could really use some help around here, now that the twins are mobile and heck-bent on destroying the place whenever I let them out of the baby-jail! Er..baby ENCLOSURE. I would never put a child in baby jail, no way. Nope, not me. I’m politically correct to the extreme that way. ;-)
But I didn’t expect anyone to actually go ahead and do it!
I had to rewrite that manifesto too.
Several months of carefully crafted typos and run ons, wasted.
Oops.
I learned my lesson, the side door is in case of emergency.
That, and my chainsaw bayonet license is still under review.
*sigh, NY...*
Well BobJ was crusin’ for a brusin’ - again. Not surprised he’s gone. It has been quiet for a few days...
Moderators are in Room 101.
I thought it was just being an attention whore. He did seem to come from the Meghan McCain camp of self importance.
Brings tears to my eyes. The good ol days.It’s a wonder any of us lived.
Blink.
Is no one safe from this fiend?
Weaponised coffee and deer makes for, well, Humble can explain the gory details of that experiment as he saw it first hand.
And lived to tell about it.
And, apparently, re-enacts it once in awhile.
Umm.. not really.
;-)
In 12 cup drip percolator pot, fill to 6 cup mark with water.
In filter, put 6 heaping scoops of coffee.
Medium roast works best, just make sure it’s a robust blend.
Found a maxwellhouse ‘medium roast’ that was rather anemic.
Put pinch of salt in filter, about as much as it would take to cover the surface of a dime with one even layer.
This keeps the coffee from tasting burned too quickly, it doesn’t age well brewed this way.
Brew, recirculate if need be, usually not.
Add sugar and dairy creamer.
Creamora and coffeemate are not recommended unless you like the heart racing that Ranger Pudding gives.
That, and the nondairy creamer will give you both a headache and a buzz with the coffee.
I usually put about 8 spoons of sugar in this stuff, it ends up being like Russian Kava, thick and sweet with that bitter overtone to it.
Oh, and I am NOT responsible for seeming demonic possession of the coffeepot, or the coffeepot ending up acting as if it has been damaged.
Be sure NOT to add creamora or coffeemate to the brew, unless you LIKE ranger pudding style heart racing.
When I brew that stuff for myself, I recirculate the stuff to brew a second time, but that’s me for my own personal enjoyment, and it may wreck the coffeepot.
Don’t forget the salt, it’s important to the finished brew.
“Look, man.
Feeding your “coffee” to corpses may re-animate them.
Sure, I’ve seen it happen. More than once.
That does NOT make them “zombies”.
Zombies are controllable.
You coffee-animated corpses are NOT controllable.
They are like PCP crack-fiends on overdrive and Red Bull.
Big difference.” -Humblegunner
