There was a server side problem this weekend that disabled the forum. It was a system wide situation and all we could do was wait on the host to resolve the issue. Hopefully all you PBF fans made it through the weekend OK. Have a great week!

Unfortunately, during the PB Forum downtime, I fell off the wagon, and reverted to the forum at KoiPond.com
I am embarrassed and ashamed.
I also noted that Bruce Condello is highly active at the KoiPond.com forum.

After the PB shortage caused me to become (sufficiently further) unhinged, I held a rousing round table discussion on pond management topics with myself . That helped a lot.

I'm posting this from a holding cell under close guard. (It's hard to type in shackles!) I was so upset when I couldn't get to Pond Boss I killed all my neighbors and their pets within a 50 square mile radius. The only reason I didn't do myself in was the hope that I could get back on Pond Boss. How sweet it is!

CB1 : If you can't escape and they won't let you wear your TF hat keep in mind that Dr. Frankinbruce's cannibal YP have paranormal powers and can shape shift and get you out. If you call on them please remember not to mention being boiled alive as that will set them off and no telling what would happen. They might shape shift you into a sputnik ball and put you in the all male pond and make you email them pics of their rivals the crusher Condello BG . :p

I love the part about tinfoil hats being "restricted". Not prohibited, mind you...just restricted.

The universe grows smaller every day, and the threat of aggression by any group, anywhere, can no longer be tolerated. There must be security for all, or no one is secure. Now, this does not mean giving up any freedom, except the freedom to act irresponsibly. Your ancestors knew this, when they made laws to govern themselves, and hired policemen to enforce them. We, of the other planets, have long accepted this principle. We have an organization for the mutual protection of all planets, and for the complete elimination of aggression. The test of any such higher authority, is, of course, the police force that supports it. For our policemen, we created a race of robots. Their function is to patrol the planets in space-ships like this one and preserve the peace. In matters of aggression, we have given them absolute power over us ... this power cannot be revoked. At the first sign of violence, they act automatically against the aggressor. The penalty for provoking their action is too terrible to risk. The result is, we live in peace; without arms or armies, secure in the knowledge that we are free from aggression and war. Free to pursue more profitable enterprises. Now, we do not pretend to have achieved perfection, but we do have a system, and it works. I came here to give you these facts. It is no concern of ours how you run your own planet, but if you threaten to extend your violence, this Earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder. Your choice is simple ... join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer ... the decision rests with you. - Gort! Klaatu barada nikto!
