Yeah, I was briefly banned (which I'm sure was noticed by all) when I came into work one morning. Lebowski cleared it up, though. Apparently Moose and I share the same IP address. I assure you I am not a part of the collective. My (lack of) posting history should prove my innocence.

Well, great, now when we have subsequent dupe accounts, we won't know whether it's PMDW or MW.

I think we still need to ban them both. Just to be safe.

I will pay a $500 bounty on the identity of MW. He deserves to be turned in for some of the things he's written on your company's computers

Are you looking forward to wuap's welcome question and what do you think it will be? Shivering with anticipation. I have no idea what it will be, but I'm trying to steer all my responses down some stream-of-consciousness road that will eventually lead to something I know the answer to. It's not going well.

purplmonkeydishwashr, please answer the following question, but choose your words carefully, as our future dealings on this site may depend, in large part, on your response to this:

A penny for your thoughts.....the United States Mint mints coins at four different locations, and all of these place their mint mark (S, D, P, W) on the penny save the P location. While the City of Brotherly Love has one of the highest crime rates around, it was the place where our Founding Fathers gathered to sign a Declaration that All Men Are Created Equal except, of course, for their African slaves. Equal is a brand name of the common sweetener aspartame, ubiquitous in "Diet" foods and drinks. Many people today rail against aspartame as the cause of most obesity, diabetes, and addiction to aspartame. Benjamin Franklin, who made himself famous in Philadelphia (where, apparently, it's always sunny except when I visit), once said that the only people more dishonest than quack doctors were their patients who swore by their treatments. If the 'science' behind the anti-aspartame crowd is indeed quackery, then the question remains: What's your favorite type of carbonated soft drink and why, all things being Equal?

My favorite soft drink, or “pop”, as is the common vernacular in my neck of the woods, is Cherry Coke Zero, although I have gotten into a habit lately of adding a spritz of Cherry Mio Energy to a Coke Zero instead. I don’t call it a pop, though, it’s always seemed awkward to me. I call it a Coke, as do the residents of Atlanta which, as you well know, is the birthplace of Coca Cola. Maybe that’s the latent southerner in me. Atlanta is also known as “The Jewel of the South”. Some people (though probably only within her immediate family), might call Jewel (the singer/songwriter/orthodontics “before” picture) the Jewel of Utah, or Alaska for that matter. She always struck me as somebody who would have horrible breath, due in no small part to her aforementioned dental challenges, and her history of van-living. Perhaps Jewel could benefit from a mint-flavored soda, which is one of those ideas that probably only works in theory. Or not even in theory, considering the whole Mentos and Diet Coke phenomenon. At any rate, I wouldn’t drink a mint-flavored soda even if you paid me, because it sounds gross. I’ll stick to Cherry Coke Zero.

Brilliant! We shall be great friends. My favorite kind of coke is also Cherry Coke Zero, all things being Equal.
