reply to post by MemoryShock


Sadly...I did. But I went there to ...ummmm..er....review my upcoming opponent's style of argument to ....ummmm....you know....er....prepare for the next debate. Yeah.

What is that on your shirt?!

Ketchup Stain....I'm a messy eater at times...

I dont know why, but that reminded me of the commercial with the guy who was doing the job interview with the big stain on his shirt.

That one was actually funny.

Seriously though...anyone know what is going on?

Semper has to be chewing at the bit right now.

Im looking forward to it as much as you. But sometimes The Vagabond, who sets up the debates, isnt around for a few days. Patience.

I am patient as can be.

I just wasn't sure if anyone knew anything, thats all. Just checkin' in.

Sublime..."If it doesn't get all over the place, it doesn't belong in your face,"

Truth...I have absolutely no patience what so ever! I am definitely anxious to get going, though after the weekend I put myself through, I can say that it was a blessing in disguise to have not started yet....

And of course, I'm sure The Vagabond is caught up in a hectic real world schedule...if anything, I fear for the world if Vagabond has gotten a foothold anywhere...

I'm back and I'm well guys. I recently realized that one of our government's recent errors may work quite heavily in my favor, so I've been spending an inordinate amount of time at the public library.

That little tax rebate thingie gives me just enough money to attempt a patent application (though not enough to hire a patent attorney or to pay for technical drawings), so I've been trying to familiarize myself with the system enough to do it myself.

I've already started getting the threads ready for the new round.

Right on, Vagabond...

On a sidenote, it looks like I have just become a Nuclear Engineer.

Now where exactly is that hat...

Threads are up. I forgot to institute the coin-flip on pro/con I'm afraid. It always seems to be something with me. I realized what I'd done litterally as i pressed "post" on the last debate thread.

I'm hoping that you'll take after Homer Simpson. I'll be Carl.

I was hoping you would play Frank Grimes....

haha grimey. Poor guy. I loved that episode.

Consolation Tournament

Alright, I'm trying to work out the matches for the consolation tournament finally (I know, I know, i'm late as hell).

Let me know if I'm forgetting somebody who is in or if I'm including someone who isn't.

chissler v GAOTU789
Seatbelt laws are not sufficiently justified.

Skyfloating v LDragonFire
Some supression of alternative energy sources is an economic necessity.

Whatukno v TheDuckster
Women should rule the world

Illusionsaregrander v Coven
Raul Castro will improve conditions in Cuba

Threads will be started tomorrow. I want to be sure I got that all right first.
