4. If you add me to your buddy list, I will....

1. Come over to your house and drink all your Pale Ale.
2. Sit on your most comfy chair and change the channel every 30 seconds.
3. Spill popcorn everywhere.
4. Sleep on your couch.

Hope that helps.

6. Kills a kitten.

No, I'm kidding, it kills a puppy.

:crazy:

<puts moderator hat back on>

It shows, in your "My DU", the most recent post by your buddy. I find this especially usefully for keeping track of the DUzy awards by JeffR.

:hi:

Welcome aboard!

10. I want to thank all of you for auditioning to be the next

keynote speaker for the Republican National Convention. Unfortunately, none of you have topped this one-liner:

John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his VP - whatever it is the VP does.
