Thanks Jah.... I really didnt know the process!

So if I record off of RM or whereever... I am not getting the same quality of sound I guess....

Both XM and Sirius claim to have "CD quality" sound so if you're not getting that, you're at least getting something that very closely approximates it. In any case, it's got to be better than the p*** poor signal Radio Margaritaville formerly put out.

I have no idea what that means but I do know I'm not the only fan of them here. Why that is constantly held against me at BitchersNews, I'll never have any idea.

a) it means that maybe you don't find stuff funny, but then your taste is not always the gold standard. I thought it was funny.

b) It's held against you because you turn purple like a Smurf choking on limburger every time someone says something about them; it's just as funny the 1st, or the 9th, or the 100th time you do it.

c) If you want to think you are the last voice of reason, and that is what gets you thru the night between writing fan letters to the DBTs and trying to get Jann Wenner's phone number, so be it. It's not quite the same as you going on Freedom Rides in 1962 Mississippi...

That does it... I don't care what order Tiki comes up with for the cage match... I say the Newbie is the first one in the cage, BB is the second, and 30 seconds later, Jah goes in in his DBT cap and matching Speedo...

Toss in Speedo Bob and I'm in for sure.

bring it on, can I wear a speedo too?

Can you? It's the required uniform.

well, it looks like i have been upgraded - I think - from newbie to just a keet!
Damn that's swell.

Then you officially qualify for the "Just a Keet Initiation Party". You must bunch up your undies and find a way to use the word "cheese" in your next three posts.

but if you want Jah's approval, you might want to memorize the next Rolling Stone cover to cover...

I find lots of stuff funny but I'm not the first one to comment on your lack of a sense of humor.

DBTs? I didn't even bring them up, you did and I didn't do any of the things you mentioned. Again, it wasn't funny the first time and it still isn't.

Where did I say anything about being the "last voice of reason"? I didn't. And there you go with your "baiting" comments again. I may be a fan of the Drive-By Truckers but the narrow minded amongst the BN crowd just can't seem to get beyond that. I'm also not the only fan of them here so I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. I'm also not sure what yours and others problems are with me posting articles from Rolling Stone. A lot of you have done nothing but complain about it despite the fact that it is ok for me to post articles here. Will you ever let it go? For the record, I haven't subscribed to Rolling Stone in forever but that doesn't mean they aren't capable of a worthy article from time to time. If those posts so offend you, then just stay out of the forum where they're posted. Pretty simple, something even you ought to be able to figure out but you just keep on complaining anyway. Why, I'm not sure.

You are right, you are not. But usually, for every one of your "I don't think that is funny" statement, followed by folding your arms and snorting, there is a chuckle or two.

and no, you didn't, but when they do come up, you do react in a most humourous fashion.

and they don't annoy me. I don't read them anyway, but that isn't because they annoy me. You keep posting stuff with the tone Larry pointed out to you yesterday, the "I know good, even if you don't" thing.

We've had this talk before. You're too thin-skinned, and you take yourself way too seriously. Any ribbing you get from me is good-natured, it's not vindictive or nasty.

Funny how you can gauge my reaction (and that of others) over the internet. Fact of the matter is, you can't unless someone posts how they feel. Otherwise you're just making an assumpation.

RinglingRingling wrote:and no, you didn't, but when they do come up, you do react in a most humourous fashion.

So, you're admitting that you, like so many others here continually bring up the Drive-By Truckers in an attempt to bait me? You should visit some other boards sometime and see how Buffett and many other bands are talked about. It's done in much more reasonable and less childish manner. In other words, there are very few (if any) baiting attempts, at least not like there is here.

RinglingRingling wrote:and they don't annoy me. I don't read them anyway, because they annoy me. You keep posting stuff with the tone Larry pointed out to you yesterday, the "I know good, even if you don't" thing.

How can I post articles with that "tone" when I didn't even write them? Not to mention, they don't have that tone at all. That is yet another misguided notion perpetuated by several BNers who apparently don't have a clue. Myself and lots of other post articles in the other forums we belong to but none of them are met with the kind of hostility they are here.

I know a lot of you would like to believe that but I'm not that way at all.

If you need to hear it from the person who posted it, fine. When I spoke against the cheese/boobies/pie crap, it was targeted to the entire group who tends to be responsible every time a hijack occurs, not BuffettBride/Mallory as one person. Perhaps a visit to the optometrist is in order for some of you here.

And why, why is it that everyone who posts against the hijacking concept automatically has no sense of humor? It’s not the actual content that determines if it’s funny or not. When this happened with the “defusing” the first few times, it may have been funny then and perhaps was suitable for that moment. That’s not the point. The point is that the same thing keeps happening over and over and over and over again to so many threads, with the same “jokes”, where it really begins to become an annoyance when people are trying to have a conversation on something serious. Sorry, perhaps a laugh would have been coming from me the first time, but I just don’t see the humor when it’s the same garbage thread after thread after thread.

Well, I could use a new prescription if you'd like to know. But you brought up the whole panties/cheese thing in a thread where it hadn't even been brought up by the panty/cheese group. At all. YOU brought up panties in this thread. YOU brought up cheese in this thread. Which, is why I got on your case, because panties and cheese hadn't even been interjected at that point.

So, you asked for panties and cheese and you got it.

I haven't pie/cheese/pantied/sporked your threads in quite some time. Maybe YOU should visit the eye doctor if you have failed to notice this.

I don't mind taking my share of the blame when it is due, and I've handed out apologies and peace offerings like candy before.

So, there.
