JohnRich 4 #1 March 8, 2011 It seems that we have a conspiracy amongst the Brits to invade the forum today and fill it chock full of British topics. Woohoo! But they should beware, as that means that everyone will be hurling criticisms their way, instead of towards America... Listen my children and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Skyrad and Nigel, On the eighth of March, in ought-eleven; Many a skydiver is now alive Who will remember that infamous day and year. He said to his friend, "If the British post messages By desktop or wifi from their towns to-night, Hang a lantern icon aloft in the forum threads Of the Speaker's Corner as a signal light,-- One if by Nigel and, and two if by Skyrad; And I on the opposite shore will be, Ready to ride and spread the alarm Through every Dropzone.com village and forum, For the American folks to be up and to arm." Apologies to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
