I know that.  I don't need any turbo advice but all of the Canadians I 
know like him and that counts for a lot.  He never threatened to kill 
you, why did he threaten to kill me?  And what does he think about Iraq 
anyway?  Is it a secret?  Would you like him less if he told you he 
believed in the surge?  He won't tell us.

It's just that I don't actually know many of you and it may be my fault 
for being a giant turd but it doesn't change the fact that anyone who 
ventures in here had better get used to a mountain of intramural hogwash 
before they can jabber wit' da crew.  Plus go to the picnic.  If you 
don't go to the picnic, you are a non person.  This is wrong.  It should 
be a place where strangers are welcome and strangers stay to become 
fellows online.

Honestly.  I love Sciroccos and I have had multiple in my yard at once 
but this is nothing but a big love fest for the status quo and that 
comes at the expense of gentle web wanderers who happen to have a Scirocco.
