    Really.

    It's bullshit. It's bullshit that Jones gets to out people with impunity and it's bullshit to discuss PMs in the open.

    Add Yankee to the list of names nobody really wants to be called. Unlike Southerner, which has an inherent charm attached to it, there's no charm to being from an entire region united by nothing but cold weather.

    Dick, don't drag me into whatever you have going on with other members.

    I thought I was being transparent in what I posted out on the board for all to see, so there wasn't any question about what I originally meant.

    I'm moving on, Dick, I would hope you do as well.

    Senator Chris Coons was on MSNBC this morning. Reminded me of this line from Jim Ignatowski in Taxi:

    "Why, just the other night I watched the Delaware legislature debate whether or not the people should be called Delawareans, or Delawarites, or Delaweenies. Personally, I’m rooting for the Delawareans—although the Delawarites put up a good argument. Delaweenians didn’t stand a chance."

    "We the people of the fair State of Delaware this day forward will be known as Delawareans."

    Where is the rule about not posting PMs?

    It's right under the rule about never laughing at anything written by Cisforkoke

    This is my understanding of the PM situation.

    Some say George Washington named certain of the South Carolinians -- those who lived/farmed along major riverways -- that and the usage spread to cover all of them. Others say the name had been around long before then.
