Who will you miss most, and why?

They can bury mush-head Cassius Clay next to Jane Fonda - that way they can be easily located.

....And your point is with this?

My point is that I had not heard about it before. I keep up with the news. The mainstream media must have overlooked it. Just like yesterday when the brother was reading the press statement and he mentioned "Allah", the news anchor repeated it back as "God".

Buster, Had you heard about it?

 

[Rod]

I really can't say I will "miss" any of them per se, because I do not consider myself a "fan". But as a human, my sympathies and prayers go out to their families, friends, and fans who are mourning their deaths.

McDuck took a day off from bashing Obama to make 13 consecutive derogatory posts about Michael Jackson, and ironically Birch is trying to turn it into a tasteless old liberals joke thread.

Here's the real poll: Who has less class, Birchtree or McDuck? Or how about; Who will you miss more, McDuck or Birchtree? :notrust:

Give it a rest!

Same for me.

Birch is a real classy guy, so it's got to be me.

Threads like this one and the New Black Panthers thread and the ask James48843 thread are why people are leaving this MB in droves...

I don't know about that. People have been coming and going for 5 years. Something, somewhere will annoy someone at one time or another, happens all the time.

If someone is going to visit "The Lounge", the adult ratings go up, the posts get a little more edgy, and some people like it and some people don't. Nothing we can do except filter some of the stuff that goes too far, but we don't catch everything.

We want everyone to enjoy themselves here be we'll probably never be able to please everyone all of the time.

To sum it up: We can please some of the people, all of the time, all of the people some of the time, but we'll never please all of the people, all of the time.

Uh...hello, on the picture of Michael in the abaya. What I heard was he was unsuccessfully trying to hide from the Press and fans...and from the sun. He had skin problems and Bahrain's sun is pretty merciless. Which makes more sense than the Muslim angle.

If he wanted to change religions he wouldn't hide his face and would wear traditional MALE garb. Not try to hide under a huge robe and veil for women.He was trying to blend in and disappear. Not sucessfully, of course. If he was a convert he wouldn't be allowed to hide under the equivalent of high-necked bulky dress for proper women, it would be considered rude, if not lewd, behavior. But since he was a guest, not a convert, they would try to protect him, and an abaya hides just about everything.

Don't mistake snarky from the Telegraph as a new revelation, that headline was typical British humor.

We expect you to be Solomon and you come through for us. And now Lincoln too. Is there no end to your talents? :cheesy:

I'm too irritating to most - McDuck assuredly will be missed more.

KevinD - all our friends are over at the other place trying the ETF crap tables - don't worry yourself - they'll be back when they get bored. And in my opinion Michael is still a worm, dead or alive.

 

[Silverbird]

Birch, you usually talk about the market, and this is a board on investing for our retirement. So don't assume, even if we don't agree with your investment optimism all the time, that we would not miss you.

As for you commenting off the subject of finance here...this is the Lounge, and you clearly stated what you are typing here is your opnion.

Thanks. No way I could own a site with a message board. Don't have the temperament.

I though Jane Fonda was still alive. If not lets not rush into this. Give her 3 Years then dead or alive, bury her. :toung:

I seriously doubt Duck will be missed, more or less. :toung:

And, you KNOW what they say about "Opinions" eh?

At least, the World Population at large disagrees heartily with you.
