Whatever...
Some members and participants in TFWG take the sniping as jest, which is how it should be taken, you know, humor, ha!
(Travel Tips: While in DC, try Old Ebbits Grill, a historic oyster bar and grill near the White House. Established in 1856, it was a favorite of Presidents Grant, Cleveland, Harding and Theodore Roosevelt and is still a popular meeting spot for political insiders, journalists, celebrities and theater-goers. I highly recommend the Crab Cakes. The restaurant has changed ownership and location several times, coming to rest in 1983 at 675 15th Street, N.W., to the Beaux-Arts building that was once the old B. F. Keith's Theater. The "new" Old Ebbitt remains a virtual saloon Smithsonian and the food is terrific.)

Central California is a place where I live.
I can take it or leave it, either way. It's all in good fun. No reason to be offended here.
I am at one time both forlorn and wistful about the current situation, and sitting in front of a thousand mason jars full of rocket fuel [cost made me purchase it in small amounts, and I never got around to looking to see if it is safe to pour it into a 55-gallon drum without it exploding, so I just left it in the mason jars, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do]. In one hand, I hold an oily rag and an Aim'nFlame lighter, in the other, a coupon book good for a thousand hugs to be distributed to all posters. It can go either way. The lighter and the coupon book are both eagerly anticipating my reply.
Another reason to like the bolding: it just looks better post-in and post-out than no bolding. In addition to that, required bolding does increase the "Superspecial Clique Factor" of the thread. A little exclusivity never hurt anyone.
Under the old rules [no bolding, only going by the last single, lonely word of a sentence], it was like watching paint dry in the background of an old black and white program you've seen so much you've memorized the lines.
The new rules gave life to this thread. Compared to the old rules, the new rules are like having OLED, Technicolor, Dolby 10.2 sound, with the quintessential humor of the ages all wrapped up in one tight package held together by the two hottest chicks in each of our own estimations.
Do whatever yall want, my hands are getting crampy.

Where I live one can receive a ticket for not maintaining a neat and regularly shorn lawn.

Lawn care should be done by the HOA Nazis for the satisfaction of doing it, if they care that much about how it looks.
How it looks to me is that you guys have been talking about me and my sterling PowerWorld reputation and I was wondering, while at work, why I was feeling all warm and fuzzy.
You guys better be careful. Any more nonsensical rambling around here and TFWG is gonna turn into the Off The Air version of the Fantastic Oldies Game elsewhere on R-I. ;D
I also find it amusing that Dude got upset because he saw someone (me) post the rules a day or so ago, apparently not aware that I've posted the rules several times over the past few weeks as a few newbies have come in and out. And, really, the only rules are (1) one sentence, and (2) bold beginning and ending clue. The rest of it was just fun stuff. Meanwhile, I need to get to work on polishing my reputation some more so Ssummers can have more fun here.
By the way, some housekeeping for PowerWorld members: 2009 Vacation Request Forms need to be in to me by the 30th of January. You can send them to me directly or send them to quad with your TPS reports and he can forward them to me. Thanks muchly.

Warm and fuzzy is what I'm feeling right now knowing I have a lot of friends on this site even though none of us has ever met in person.

Anyacat is even more reserved than she is online unless you know her well.
(Travel Tip: Dine with a view at the Lafayette in the Hay Adams Hotel 16th and H Sts. NW, Washington. Food is quite good and the prices no too painful with a view looking out over Lafayette Park and the White House. Breakfast and lunch are less expensive than dinner.)

Well all this might be true, but my hands are cramping like a mofo.
Lick Aversion could be the personal anthem of stamp collectors everywhere.

Stamp collectors everywhere envy the collection of the late King George V.

Be all that you can be.
(Travel Tip: Windsor Castle is another of my favorite places. It's down the block from the home of Nell Gwyn, Charlies II's favorite mistress--he had many. The castle also housed Queen Mary's Doll House. It was made to a scale of 1:12 (one inch to the foot), is over three feet tall, and contains models of products of well known companies of the time. It is remarkable for its detail and the detail of the objects within it, many of which are 1/12th replicas of items in Windsor Castle. Spend the morning in Windsor (a short train trip from London) and then take the train to Hampton Court Palace for the afternoon.)
