Maybe Tron is short for Latronwell, or Tronisha.
Does that make it relevant?
 ;D

No.
Hey Baby, Have you ever met a Newbie with 38 pages of previous posts before? Do you Want to?

since were on the subject of people being offended for no reason...
See thats the funny thing about offending people you don't have to be trying to offend them to do so. And different people have different perspectives on what they find as being offensive. I'm not trying to say you have to watch everthing you say to avoid being offensive, I'm just asking is the question "was he black" relevent in any way to what the descussion was on.

whenever i think of aussies, i think of the hobbits from lotr with the big hairy feet and stuff, and it just amused me that guy wasnt wearing any socks in the picture =P
Once again something that didn't need to be said, although this time posted most likley to see how I would respond to it.

I know a Zelda, I know someone with the last name of Garnett (princess Garnett from FF9), know a Tia (from Lufia 2), and I know a Fox McLeod (pronounced McCloud. Yes, I do make fun of him when the times arise).

It's not short for everything, it's the name of the paper towels you used to clean up the first mess the dog made in your living room.

If no one feeds the trolls, we're just going to keep eating your goats.

I could not even get close to that, I had some influence on a boy's name, being the dad, naming the girl was kinda out of bounds.  You may be right though.

We ended up naming her Sydney.  Man what a great kid.  9mo old and she already scored 3k on robotron...then spit on the monitor...

Yep, even Eugene Jarvis said something like that,

From: http://www.dadgum.com/halcyon/BOOK/JARVIS.HTM

"We not only want to beat an opponent, but to inflict real psychological damage. We fantasize that a particularly crushing defeat will condemn an arch rival to years of therapy to overcome the trauma."

Danny, where do you live.  I want to visit Austrailla.  Do you live anywhere cool?  Can I crash at your place with my wife (sorry, she's taken)?

The red people don't have a hit show on Comedy Central- hence, not relevant.

Yes they do  -  The Daily Show.  Oh wait, you don't mean people from the Red States.

Sorry guys. I am really not good for more than the occasional fart joke or sexist comment. If the truth is known, I really even shouldn't be allowed to eat with a fork- let alone post things on message boards.

Step up Danny.

My cat's name is Simon (Belmont) and I named a venus flytrap Manny (Calavera).  The venus flytrap died, though.....which is fitting, I guess.  Strangely, it sprouted before it died.

LOL - "i know it will be some section of some government department somewhere."

It kinda sounds like YOU work for the gov. 

That is about the clarity of response we get here in Georgia at the Dept of Transportation if we have a question of any kind...
