What ever happened to francisandbeans?I believe he had a disagreement in principle with JimRob. He was around for a while with a different name but eventually faded out by his own will.
I think he still lurks some but he hasn't posted, that I know of, in quite some time.

There's a friendly-looking blondish person two seats down from me though. I'll see if she is certified to administer first aid. Stand by...

Here, let me try a few of these on you.
I haven't used them yet so I don't know how effective they are. You can tell me if they get under your skin and I can use them on the antis.
You are -
A few clowns short of a circus.
An experiment in Artificial Stupidity.
All foam, no beer.
An intellect rivaled only by garden tools.
Proof that evolution CAN go in reverse.
How's that?
Ticked off yet?

I hate to insert an environmental alert in an otherwise politics-free corner of FR, but this is far too important. I hope that you will all join me in ensuring that your friends, neighbors, and family all hear about this insidious toxin, knowledge of which has been suppressed by the chemical-corporation-bought-and-paid-for EPA:
From
http://www.dhmo.org/ Environmental Impact of Dihydrogen Monoxide
Due in part to its widespread use in industry, Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is involved in many environmental incidents each year. While most are unavoidable given current technology, there can be little doubt that the presence of DHMO in each significantly increases the negative impact to the environment.
Among the many commonly-sited DHMO-related environmental impacts are:
DHMO contributes to global warming and the "Greenhouse Effect", and is one of the so-called "greenhouse gasses."
DHMO is an "enabling component" of acid rain -- in the absence of sufficient quantities of DHMO, acid rain is not a problem.
DHMO is a causative agent in most instances of soil erosion -- sufficiently high levels of DHMO exacerbate the negative effects of soil erosion.
DHMO is present in nearly every creek, stream, pond, river, lake and reservoir in the U.S. and around the world.
Measurable levels of DHMO have been verified in ice samples taken from both the Arctic and Antarctic ice caps.
Recent massive DHMO exposures have lead to the loss of life and destruction of property in California, the Mid-West, the Philippines, and a number of islands in the Caribbean, to name just a few.
Industrial DHMO Dumping
In spite of the recent movement to ban unlawful dumping of hazardous chemicals into waterways in the U.S. and abroad, release of massive quantities of DHMO continues. Industry cannot be held accountable entirely because lawmakers are reluctant to pass legislation to make most forms of dumping of DHMO illegal. Reasons for this could include pressures from corporate leaders, industry lobbyists, and even vested foreign governments. This governmental inaction leading to nearly unregulated dumping may be one of the most overlooked environmental impacts of DHMO.
Meanwhile, federal (EPA) regulations are in place to make illegal the disposal of DHMO in landfills, including those licensed for hazardous waste. Regulations also stipulate that any DHMO appearing in a landfill must be removed. Judging from these laws it appears that the U.S. government recognizes the inherent danger DHMO poses to the environment, at least in certain circumstances.
The U.S. government refuses to ban the production, distribution, and use of DHMO. This inaction may be due to pressures from private interests and corporate-sponsored economists, among many, who predict a DHMO ban could produce disastrous results. Claims include damage to public health and the well-being of the U.S. and world economies.
Fortunately, some industry and governmental leaders are taking the initiative to inform and educate their employees in spite of what the U.S. government's official policy may be. Major employers, such as Sandia National Laboratories, a national security laboratory operated by the Sandia Corporation, a Lockheed Martin Co., for the U.S. Department of Energy, have begun notifying their workers of the DHMO issue. With efforts such as those at Sandia, the profligation of DHMO may one day be minimized.
Equally encouraging is the support of environmental organizations, such as the Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand, an important force in the southern hemisphere promoting "ecological wisdom, social responsibility, appropriate decision-making and non-violence." Notably, a busy high-ranking Member of Parliament there supports a ban on DHMO. This welcome endorsement serves as a reminder to a pre-occupied world that fostering a widespread knowledge of DHMO is crucial.

Now Flurry, You get pinged by me every time I open the Lounge.
SheLion keeps the tobacco thread bump list. I'm sure she would be more than happy to put you on that.
I can, however, make it a point to ping you to any threads I ping to the
Puff List if you want me to.

Talk about SMART!
The minister was preoccupied with thoughts of how he was going to ask the congregation to come
up with more money than they were expecting for repairs to the church building.
Therefore, he was annoyed to find that the regular organist was sick and a substitute had been
brought in at the last minute. The substitute wanted to know what to play.
"Here's a copy of the service," he said impatiently. "But you'll have to think of something to play
after I make the announcement about the finances."
During the service, the minister paused and said, "Brothers and Sisters, we are in great difficulty
the roof repairs cost twice as much as we expected, and we need $4,000 more. Any of you who
can pledge $100 or more, please stand up."
At that moment, the substitute organist played "The Star-Spangled Banner."
And that is how the substitute organist became the permanent organist!
