11. schizophrenic.
:crazy:

Who is showing up today? Seems every other game is good, and the alternating one is awful.

Look for a drilling this week.
:eyes:

Then a win against Virginia.

12. yus - yer not likely to see my blue devils putting too many more
checks in the "win" column in the coming weeks. Even last night's performance against the Hokies was ugly. Redick missed 3 free throws in the game. That's unheard of. And now with Wake and the tarholes coming up... ugliness looms.

16. This must be armegeddon.
If Redick missed 3. Of course, that could be all he misses for the rest of the year.

You must beat eUNiCe.

18. all of the above!!
There are such interesting threads, I'm around like minded people, I like to argue, I like seeing if people reply to me, I am an attention whore, I like to copycat, my grammer sucks, and I love knowing what my fellow democrats are pissed about..

20. I'm not sure, but I heard the admins add nicotine to every thread.
I could be wrong, though.

21. can't find the sniffa option

22. Other: because I live in a sea of wingnuts and it is a necessary refuge
among normal thinking people, even if it is a virtual refuge.

This is similar to your second choice, but not quite the same.

26. Because of liked minded people
It's important to us in the Red States to be able to interact with people who have a progressive point of view. We don't meet a lot of people in real life who are like that.
