Does this mean the Cubs aren't winning the World Series?

One of the changes should probably be forced prosilver for all users.

Glad you're planning on sticking around. However, English is read from left to right. Look at any script. Sub silver should be the default look.

Well, [expletive]. Turns out I'm actually a subsilver fan who can't remember which is which.

Yes, subsilver for everyone. Screw prosilver.

i've long since had disabled avatars/sigs (before those were disabled) (and yet i love my jim cornette avatar) but even still prosilver for life (avatars to the right). you get right to the content, the juicy part. and for whatever reason i feel like prosilver is more discreet, particularly at work (even if i had avatars/sigs on). i was sub for about 5 years BK (before kyle).

True. Even for us part-timers, I wondered what I would do without this place.

Thanks Michael for all your work.

Thanks Kyle for taking this on.

Darn, beat me to it.

Now that the apocalypse isn't coming, the Cubs have no chance, right?

I recall a time not too long ago. I was sitting dejectedly, slumped in my chair, ready to hit send on my congratulatory text to my Rangers fan buddy as soon as Freese swung futilely at strike three. Then this happened:

"Into right, well hit, back at the wall....it's off the wall!! One run scores, here comes Berkman - Freese has tied it!!!"

And suddenly the kid and I are jumping up and down in the middle of the family room screaming, hugging, and high-fiving.

That's how I feel today.
