the Gorilla Game, are you?:-)


A lot of good that f@cking book has done us. You'd be better served reading the Diane Fossey version and basing your investments on that (I think that was --Mike Buckley's inspiration for buying Rainforest.) In fact, you're better off on this thread if you don't read a book (doubya would fit in very well, once his handlers told him what we were talking about). And by the way, we also don't allow any political discussions here.

>> So tell me, how does one sign up?*

Reading would be a good start.

>> you're not gonna tell me I have to finish reading the Gorilla Game, are you?

That's not necessary unless you want people to respond to your posts.

How about a less taxing approach? Start by reading the thread header, and in specific, our newly coined and totally worthless FAQ. Pay particular attention to the section on Can’t say it in words?.

cuf

btw, we already have a thread lawyer, but she recently succombed to a feather fetish, so there may be an opening in the near future.

Hi mph...

Welcome to the Curmudgeon Thread. Do you need to read the manual?........not at all.

Just be witty and clever about nothing.
Based on initial impressions, you may want to practice in front of a mirror for few thousand days.
