Default Reminder

Hello members,

There has been an increase in the frequency of off topic discussion in the topical threads of the General Topics forum as of late. While I am aware that there is no hostile intent to the action, which is why I refrain from the use of terminology such as 'hijacking', it has contributed, none the less, to the improper conduct that has been prevalent as of late. As such, I ask you, the members, to refrain from such off topic discussion, or at least to remove yourselves from the current thread and start your own to continue it. Doing so shows respect for the thread's author, as well as helps to prevent future heated exchanges.

Remember, only you can prevent Condition Orange.

The Management

Do you ever watch ER? There is always a nurse announcing " We have a Code Brown out in the hall". :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

This must be that vaunted wisdom that was so readily advertised on SHIV. Reading of it is no substitute for seeing it in action. What a fool I am for passing it up. Now where's my dunce cap?

Au contraire! Mr. Shingen. You can't have forgotten about the more classical style of dunce cap!



But then again, you'll also need something to suit your autumn dunce cap needs, how about something for Halloween?



Now and only now are you all set for your dunce cap needs.
