    If sirscrapalot were to say, private message me a list of quotations THAT HE CAME UP WITH, I will add a few to the list of quotes, citing sirscrapalot as such.

    Sirscrapalot has sent in some quotes to the admin. If anyone else ( Looking at you fan club) has any great quotes sirscrapalot came up with(not the ones credited in the tag line!) and would like to see them submitted, they should send Sirscrapalot a pm so he can pass it on.

    Sirscrapalot will not post again in the third person unless we need another Skippy flashback. Your welcome.

    Does this mean I should import some quotes from other sites I'm a member of or is this just for Sirscrapalot?

    It's my thing. I'm on strike tho, so do what ever you feel so inclined to. Your also welcomed to pm me any or authors of quotes, an I'll gladly put them in my quote file for when I'm off strike, an add them to the four page quote thread on steroids.

    I'm breaking my strike, for today only. Your welcome for the quote/tagline being back briefly.

    I had some other quotes I was going to send into Admin by the way, but the feed vanished.

    Edit: Upon review my post seemed a tad snarky. I apologize. I by no means have quotes on lock downs, just something I've done since I joined, an will keep doing till the day I'm no longer here. I don't see that day coming anytime soon tho.

    If the admin wants to change something on the forum, I vote that he changes his creepy avatar. The quotes are sometimes cute, sometimes funny, and sometimes thought-provoking.

    Now, all that avatar does is make my skin crawl!!

    lol....I don't think I've ever herd my quotes called cute..Funny yes. Crazy yes. Thought provoking yes. Cute...that's a first!

    You hear that Admin? You avatar is creepy an my quotes are cute! If you changed your avatar to match Hobo's...Your's might be cute to!

    Tweaking the admin by the tail..probably not my smartest move, but he's likely used to me by now.
