Welcome back Paine. We've miss your own self parody. - VA
Any parody around here is put on by Tex. - And you're jealous.
- After all thousands of freepers don't rush over to see your posts. -- Nope, tex is the big star draw at FR. - Just ask him.
I don't think you will find anyone here that will disagree with that statement :)
-- We can't have posted rules, impartially enforced, -- lest a bit too much control would be surrendered.
BTTT
No!t at this juncture.
I don't find Tex to be a pain whatsoever.
He is in fact, one of a handful of FR posters that I will purposely search out to see what his comment of the day is....along with Lazamataz, JohnnyHuang2, kattracks, to name a few.
Can anybody explain this for me? Taken from the World Cup webpage.

Tex is like a puppet master and you're his floppy puppet. He's nothing without his silly prop. :)

Naaww, not lately, -- But I'm sure overdue for another good chastizing, -- no doubt about that.
-- After all, spurning & dissing heavyweight freepers like Aggie & VA is really skating on FR's thin ice.
I hope he's not flirting.
