moldboy 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2005 Other then to post a joke what was the origional point of this post? Although it was funny, how does the title make sense. 33 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too" Ha Ha Ha annoying, does this count.
