5. Excellent point.

It can make us all seem like vapid, materialistic caricatures.

2. A note to Newbies: DU stands for DEMOCRATIC underground.

Doesn't hurt to remind people. ;) :hi:

6. Oh yeah? Now you tell people!

*After* I gave my donation thinking this was "Ducks Unlimited".

8. Ha! Another victim... that is non-refundable...

just so you know... :)

11. Proud supporter of the Museum of Bad Art?

12. You betcha! I fell in love with this awful, ugly cat the moment I first

saw him.... :)

13. I made a nice, photo-paper print of some of these and laminate

them. I give them for bookmarks to friends and made a sticker on the back that made it look like it came from a real museum store. My favorite is Sunday on the Pot With George.

3. What alternative would you suggest?

Lurking in the Religion/Theology screamfest?

:)

9. The Israel/Palestine forum would be the tamest I think...

right? :shrug: :)

10. How about the Gungeon?

;)

[Shell Beau]

4. You and GD. Are they messing with you again?

You have to gear up before you go in there. It is a love--hate relationship!

7. Naw, I just read the thread about "POLICE - OPEN THE DOOR!"

It took about two seconds for that to turn into a flame war.

I DIG that smiley. Change the sword to a baseball and it looks like a catcher.

Hey -- are there any baseball smilies? Strictly of the small yellow face type? Hmm...

14. Nah, you've got to dive right in.

you can soon work out where you want to hang out.
