    I knew that it was about 'that' time, but it's sad when you see one of your own losing their mind right in front of your face.....

    Dibs on his rig...

    Missed the earlier thread, so I'm glad Jesse's bulb was a tad dim tonite...

    Held it together until I read, "Make him bark?", with Paul Linde's voice in my head no less. Eyes teared up from laughing...
    More later,

    It's all right Jesse. When you lose the memory, you don't remember having one anyway. It's kinda serene...

    I wonder just how far they’re going to go back to do their edits. Should we be worried about what we did when we were in diapers?

    From Blazing Saddles to censorship. In the name of what? Ridiculous, if you ask me. The moderators used to be 10 times worse than this...but it is what it is.

    The times are a changin'. (not for the better either)

    Rewriting history and erasing the unpleasurables is NOT the way to go about it. Let history be history and if the rules change? Simply let us know. It's as easy as that.

    Corporate pencil pushers who are busy driving this once great company into the ground are most likely the force behind this.

    Waste of time, if you ask me. Polk would be better served putting their efforts into getting parts, speakers (other than just a left speaker) and their customer service back to where it was but no.....they want to concentrate on this????

    Upon further investigation Ryan is NOT editing posts, he is archiving the Clubhouse threads starting in 2001. All forum info prior to 2001 was lost in a host change.
