Re: 30th Birthday Theme!

Sorry, Belle. I didn't know. Good work on the header. Never let it be said that I didn't give credit where credit is due.

Is the board going to do anything special on the actual anniversary?

Re: Opinion on Post-Novacom

I throw down with people in real life now. I come here to remember what once was. Another important point about Albums 39-43 was that they allowed us to see more of Wooton. Novacom not only saw him introduced in its midst, but also sidelined by it. Yes, he was goofy and obnoxious in those episodes. ...

Re: What does Applesauce do?

I mean, to be fair, there's a lot that Whit has done "for the government" that's never really elaborated on. Sort of a nebulous catch-all explanation for his backstory. Also, to be fair, any reading on actual disclosed government files from the era that Whit worked with the CIA and Depart...

Re: Album 64 Theoriez

SUMMARY YOU GUYS "When Whit sends Olivia and Matthew on an Imagination Station adventure to Old Testament days, the pair discovers that their heroes have unpleasant dark sides too. Is this where the David and Absalom story comes in? I hope that that is not an OAC episode. Tragic as it is, Bibl...

Re: Opinion on Post-Novacom

Hi. I'm here momentarily. First, some comments: 1). Tiger, your sarcasm is so refreshing. I've missed it. 2).

Re: Odyssey Conundrums

Something I've never understood is why Whit protested Novacom's "violent" shows when, in the imagination station kids have seen countless brutal deaths, been put in life threatening situations, have been starved, beaten, and enslaved! Plus, according to Whit, he wants to make the imaginat...

Re: The E.R.K. (Emily Rules Klub)

That is one thing that will never change, although I am not as passionate on that issue as I was when the club warfare was in full force. My loyalties will always be to the ESK, though...

Re: Iliad House

That is amazing. I was actually wondering a few weeks ago what had ever become of the series. I remember how ecstatic I was when I heard about its creation.

Because I'm already feeling bad about the garbage I'm hinting at. I feel uncomfortable with secular music (with only a handful of exceptions) after 1965. Just think how much music has degraded from 2000 to 2016. O.o

Teddy Roosevelt offed his neighbor's dog with his pistol, and no one hates on him for that. He is a national hero (though there are people who would debate about that status).
