I can live with Homorable merit - Besides, I like the winning entries...
Like now and forever around FR, I am not a victim of your ignorance as much as you are a witness to my ignorance. I don't want people of good will to even know about Rick's Cabaret!
As far as Miss Marple ... nobody understands her! ;^)
Is it too late to annotate my entry?
2. I got nostalgic seeing the ***Ash Alert*** sign, and can't stay away.
Ash was the original "liberal disruptor" on FR. The poster Don Morgan would follow him around from thread to thread, posting an elaborate "Ash Alert" exhorting people not to acknowledge his presence. (For the record, I miss Ash. He actually knew what he was talking about in many cases, and could string coherent sentences together.)
3. Somebody had to stay to bring up "pool poopy".
Back in September, '98, there was a news article about some outbreak of something or other that was traced to some kid having an accident in a wading pool. The thread developed into an infamous contest of scatalogical puns.
4. If BADJOE blurts out the names of the "Gestapo Twins", I have a remote chance of being able to read it in the microsecond before it's yanked.
Reference to the BADJOE's "opus" of two weeks ago.
6. I want to be the one to push the abuse button when medved pastes in a long essay about the Earth orbiting Saturn.
The Net.Legend Ted Holden posts here under the screen name of "medved". He is famous both for his crackpot science theories, and his rhetorical methods of defending them. (Do a Google search for "Ted Holden" and/or "Splifford".) He likes to re-post the same long diatribes to creation/evolution threads.
7. One of the signs of the Apocalypse will be when Jim Robinson lets Eschoir back; this is just the sort of thread where it will happen.
Eschoir was the worst of the liberal disruptors. He was actually the defendant in a lawsuit by FreeRepublic that was ultimately dropped. It is his mission in life to destroy FR; the man is obsessed with the notion.
8. I'm hoping Tabitha Soren will show up to divert the discussion into a less divisive channel.
"Tabitha Soren" was the pro-life answer to feminazis. This poster would launch the most extreme anti-abortion diatribes, advocating the death penalty for women who had abortions, and other pleasantries. She would also show up on arbitrary threads and find the most tortuous reasons for connecting it to abortion.
9. MurrayMom isn't here.
Our current, if intermittent, token liberal. She's so dim, it's almost unsportsmanlike to argue with her.
In answer to your question, I am a real physicist (experimental high-energy), employed by the University of Pennsylvania.
10. The Dose
9. Caption This
8. Moose and cheese
7. FR's Finest
6. Comments that make me spew beer, coffee, coke,etc. on my keyboard and monitor.
5. Meeting FReepers online and offline and making FRiends.
4. FReeps
3. USO Canteen
2. ATRW
And the number one reason...
1. Liberals, democRATS, socialist, etc. hate us.

ROFL...I feel comfortable in making an Executive Decision that annotation of entries is allowable up until fifteen minutes before the final results are tabulated.
"...in case you missed any of the references but didn't want to admit it."
Pompous-ass'd physicists...SHEEEEESH!!

LOL...amazing how many folks appear to believe that a Top 10 list goes from 1-10 when I KNOW from watching ESPN, Letterman, and NASA rocket-launchings that all Top 10 lists go from 10-1.
FReegards...MUD
FReegards...MUD
You, too?! Ain't it a hoot?!!

FReegards...MUD
SHEEESH, I pretty much knew Landru had the MudCave bugged with a hidden camera, but I had no idea he was now selling the Live Feed over the 'net...wonder what it's gettin' over on eBay?!
LOL...MUD
