The one on the tricycle?!

[TexKat]

Oh I know this should be in breaking news.

Fox News reporting that the accuser had sex with the BELLHOP -- her "outcry" witness -- within a couple of days before this incident.

Report: Kobe to be tested for HIV

[FreeTheHostages]

Of course, most reliably, like clockwork, someone's posted a Michael Jackson story in breaking news. Can we go break their legs, boss?

[DCBryan1]

Oh, I see, her pic took longer to load...yeah, shes a super hottie.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Be careful on the road.

[FreeTheHostages]

And then the Jackson story was immediately removed from breaking news. Cool. Applause applause.

Here's to the Admins, who keep this place as sane as it can be!

I do like the admins . . . .

[Interesting Times]

ARTHUR: Knights! Forward! [boom boom boom boom BOOM boom boom boom boom] What manner of man are you that can summon up fire without flint or tinder?

TIM: I... am an enchanter.

ARTHUR: By what name are you known?

TIM: There are some who call me... Tim?

ARTHUR: Greetings, Tim the Enchanter.

TIM: Greetings, King Arthur!

ARTHUR: You know my name?

TIM: I do. [zoosh!] You seek the Holy Grail!

ARTHUR: That is our quest. You know much that is hidden, O Tim.

TIM: Quite. [pweeng! boom!!] [clap, clap, clap]

[Mad Dawgg]

IllBay? Is that you? ;-D

I had a bad accident when I was about 19 and didn't ride for a few years.
Ever since then, I am very cautious.

[Publius6961]

Michael Jackson, Kobe Bryant, Scott Peterson, etc, are not breaking news, unless convicted.

HOORAY!

Can we vote on moving those three topics over to chat where the "tabloid-deprived" can knock themselves out?

BUMP!

[Constitution Day]

LMAO! Excellent.

[DCBryan1]

IllBay?

No, I was thinking Eschoir myself.

[beckett]

I agree MJ is not breaking news, but since the issue has been raised I do have a bone to pick. On the night Jeb Bush issued an Executive Order to rescue Terri Schiavo, I posted the EO in breaking news just as the EO became available in the media. For that I got read the riot act by an FR admin moderator!

It was breaking news! So there is an element of arbitrariness on the control side too, IMHO, not only on the side of overly exhuberant FR posters.

[Constitution Day]

You brown-noser! :)

[Tijeras_Slim]

And when you were 19 not only did you heal a whole lot faster you probably didn't have a mortgage, family, career, etc... :) I'm a devout coward on the thing.

[FreedomPoster]

How about we move Michael Jackson, Kobe Bryant, & Scott Peterson stories to Chat? Until convicted. And shot. Then hung.

[2Jedismom]

And a sense of humor too!!!

[FreedomPoster]

GMTA; see above.
