    10) Contrary to popular belief, not all Australian males are clamoring for Fosters to be piped in instead of cold water.

    9) "Brother" is code for 'black', as well as representing a fillial relationship...as in the case of "Another Brother"...who does not, as it happens, claim to be just another male sibling. Now I get Richard Roundtree movies..always just thought he must be from a strict Catholic family...

    8) That not all Texans are gun totin' tobacco spittin' 10 gallon hat wearin' give em hell and like it, Bible thumpin' arch conservative and damned proud of it, Yee-Hah! cowboys...I now realize that there are at least two exceptions.

    7) johnheath actually is right, and everyone who disagrees with him is wrong...and LIARS...or both...probably both...

    6) People who claim that America has no original language have obviously never overheard a conversation between Behad and Codell...I think it's called Seinfeldian, and I think it's a derivitive of a few languages, but I don't quote me on this...in fact, don't quote at all, they'll do it for you...

    5) HP is NOT the devil....HP is NOT the devil...HP is NOT the devil...HP is NOT the devil...HP is NOT the devil...HP is NOT the devil...

    4) Whoever said the first thing we do let's kill all the lawyers was right. I think at last count 5 of the most frequent posters in here were lawyers, and they post mostly what they shamelessly euphymize as 'work'...Little do clients across the great land of ours suspect that 75% of their billables were actually spent in deep consultation about whether Steve is a better point guard or at the 2 spot, who Manny should date next, and worse of all, reading...or attempting to read...one of MacBeth's long assed posts most of which could be summed up with another title of the Bard's Play, set in Spain...

    3) War and politics are not the only subjects which make strange bedfellows. We ought to post a thread about memorable reconciliations of previously ardently opposed posters metaphorically running through a filed of daisies into each other's arms when reconcied over topic such as religion, or underwear preference...

    2) No Joke...I do't like the way he does some things, but this site has, weird as it is to admit, become important to me, and I don't think I'm alone in this, and as such we don't give Clutch nearly enough thanks for this. It usually degenerates into either overly sychophantic, or via the venue of good natured ribbing. We ought to thank him every so often merely by telling how much this place has taken hold of a certain part of most of our days.

    1) But the number one thing I've ;earned...* cue the violins*...Is that I actually do love you guys, on the whole. Yes, I'm a wee bit drunk, before you ask...and maybe I;ll finish theis list off better tomorrow...it started well, byt sonce then...anyway I am not so drunk as to not know what I'm saying, and that is that I never expected to form such meaningful bonds with people, none of whom I've met, and most of whom are in a city I've never even been to...Maybe I should Get a MacBeth's Cross Country Treck To H-Town going...

    That's nice.


    You've never been to Houston? How did you come accross this site then? Actually, I should ask what made you a Rockets fan.

    I have learned that some dude named JAG who used to come in the chat room and poll everyone as to who the Top 5 Players of all time in every sport, can turn himself into a big-word using, paragraph addict. :p

    Ummm...lomg sotory best told sober. Basically,was basketball fan , was learning game from Dad, who was basketbaall coach...and I had already decided that month long lectures of the virtues of Larry Bird and Kevin McHale and the Celtic Way had turned me off them for life, so I had to pick a team...and I looked and read about alott of them...and this was when the Twin Toewrs had just been assembled, and the whole revolutionairy aspect cought my attention, and I called them my team...and this was shortlt cemeneted when the Rockets faced off with The Dark Side in the Finals within a few years of my becoming a Rockets fan, and have been ever since..

    What I have learned so far on the the Clutchcity BBS...

    - Many people at work are using company Internet resources for non-business related activities...

    - These guys are actually cool dudes (Hopefully they don't get fired)...

    - It's very easy to be addicted to communicate with a bunch of strangers on the Internet & having a bond with each other...

    - This BBS is starting to transform my daily routine... I hope I don't get fired from work because of this...

    - It's a pleasure to make fun of someone you never met...

    - In general .... :) :D

    Well they never dribbled around till the shot clock ran out, they actually passed to the open man, they played TEAM defense, they played TEAM offense and last but not least they were actually fun to watch:cool:

    10) Australia was not in the Iraqi War so Australians don't matter

    9) "Another Brother's alter ego is "Joe". Dr. Jeckyl meet Heckle.

    8) That all Texans are gun totin' tobacco spittin' 10 gallon hat wearin' give em hell and like it, Bible thumpin' arch conservative and damned proud of it, Yee-Hah! cowboys

    7) Trader Jorge is Mr. Burns and johnheath is Smithers

    6) Behad and Codell are scary

    5) HP is the devil....HP is the devil...HP is the devil...HP is the devil...HP is the devil...HP is the devil...

    4) Whoever said the first thing we do let's kill all the lawyers was wrong . I think at last count 5 of the most frequent posters in here were lawyers, and they post mostly what they shamelessly euphymize as 'work'...Little do clients across the great land of ours suspect that .0001% of their billables were actually spent in deep consultation about whether Steve is a better point guard or at the 2 spot, who Manny should date next, and worse of all, reading...or attempting to read...one of MacBeth's long assed posts most of which could be summed up with another title of the Bard's Play, set in Spain...

    The remaining 99.9999% of the time, they are hardworking, honest men who earn every dollar they make.

    3) War and politics are not the only subjects which make strange bedfellows. We ought to post a thread about memorable reconciliations of previously ardently opposed posters metaphorically running through a filed of daisies into each other's arms when reconcied over topic such as religion, or underwear preference... and once again, Macbeth is gay.

    2) No Joke...I do't like the way he does some things, but this site has, weird as it is to admit, become important to me, and I don't think I'm alone in this, and as such we don't give Clutch nearly enough thanks for this.

    So I'm guessing you are sentimental drunk as opposed to the angry violent kind?

    I'm doing a book report on the adult film industry, and I was wondering if anyone could describe, in great detail, what it's like to spend.......uhhhhh..........quality......time with a p*rn star.

    As an added incentive to tell such a tale, I understand such stories can help prevent prostate cancer.
