I don't even have to read Scott's post, because I know I'll agree with
him, I generally do,  plus it's just too damned long, but hang with
me. The long and the short is that, for one, the TerryK is in the soup
and that's a problem for some, then there is the courtesy issue, etc.
I'll hang with Sullivan on this one. Say what you will, don't park
your lemonade stand next to mine. Period. You guys that do that are a
bunch of jackasses...pure and simple and anyone who disagrees with me
and Sullivan suck a pipe (not theirs.) Take BenT, for example, he will
probably jump in here and say it's ok. It's an open forum, within
bounds, etc. But you WILL piss of BenT, nonetheless, if you erect your
stand next to his.

What blows me away is that what is really at hand here are
balls.....and these balls are proposed to you unprotected. Yup, as I
recall, and it was waaaaay back like three hours ago that I saw it,
these balls are just supposed to hang out there after you spend X and
then your shifting will be so much better. Yup, until all that dirt
and grime get terminal. You need those boots in there to protect your
balls, boys! I don't care what kind of eternal material you put in
there, if you don't protect it with some good boots you will be SOL. I
guess they could be made out of elephant tusks, but when the shit gets
in there your shifting will suck.
Oh....did I mention? I'm with Sullivan on this one.......

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
