The doors of the FT WalMart are open.
Everyone gets a smile on the way in.
But this Walmart is HUGE and there is some really nasty stuff down some of the aisles.
Get what you want/need and get out. Just maybe you'll meet a friend along the way... we can only hope.
But above all... Beware the Lurkers!

Dude, aren't you on the omnipotent TalkBoard? Can't you throw your significant influence with Randy into this effort? It's not like you have a real job taking up your time....

So, why the hell do threads get locked but the original offending comment not deleted? After seeing the latest crap in the trip reports forum, I gotta wonder...

With all the diversions provided by the (cute guy, smart guy, weird guy) 
Entertainment Committee, I almost forgot the point of the thread. Thank you Few Miles for reminding me.
svpii is absolutely right. It won't work without a whole bunch more moderators, absolutely none of whom will be likely to figure out exactly what to do with the Sneak Freak.

arturo I'll drink agave juice out of navels with you anytime. But only if I get to pick the navels.
And, chexfan, one must ask...
"I Have a New Niece!"
What have you done with your old niece???
Now, back to the topic. There are no rules regarding locking threads. Adding more moderators will only add more inconsistency.

I know who arturo is.
He is my boyfriend.
Sometimes I have to share him with wingless but that is ok, he is still always my boyfriend.

Actually, Arturo, while I do not doubt your word, I do doubt you would voluntarily reveal your true identity - and thank God for that. Considering how this board is falling apart lately, we need all the under-cover super heroes we can get, and for you to continue bringing hope, smiles, and laughter among so much BS, your identity needs to remain as it is now... a mystery.
Don Arturo, como siempre permanezco a sus ordenes.
