    That's good to see, actually. Talk about someone doing a real turnaround!

    Congratulations, Ron Ron.

    Not sure if that quote is true or not, but, that's about the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

    Don't worry; Nietzsche didn't say "Madness." He said, "Bad Conscience" and meant "Pregnancy" figuratively as a tough phase but good for man to pass through to be reborn with better morals. He used biological metaphors often.

    Thanks HPartner, but I think I am thinking of another quote where he also says something like "What is madness in the father may become genius in the son", but you took the quote the right way regardless. Which is to say, I love Ron because he is crazy, not despite it.

    what a turn around he made. he's turned into a real life role model, not one that has had it easy and been good his whole life... but because he's started with a lot of issues, worked through them, and can show people though his experience what is possible.

    i'm proud of him and really happy that he won this award.

    Now everyone wants to shower with Ron! Congrats! He has really turned his life around since leaving Daryl the Dirty Doer.


    Guess who has never won a Citizenship Award?

    TNT Should replace Webber with Artest when Ron Ron hangs em up. That would be amazing! Ron and Charles on the same set
