What is The Lounge?

I've been reading and posting on DU for a while and never looked at this category. Who are you people, and what are you doing here?

Random_Australian told me you'd love this joke!

Message:

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the President his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, three Brazilian soldiers were killed."

And, we have a totally cool band: The Naughty Girls Band! (Come on you guys, you knew I had to bring the band into this!)
