We bribed him. If you have $100, you can be one, too. It's Canadian money, so it's not really all that much....

I guess posted and hung around too much, so he eventually put me to work. Nothing at all to do with guitar skill for sure. LOL!

John Nance Garner, Vice President under FDR from 1933 - 1941, once declared that the vise presidency of the US was "not worth a bucket of warm p*ss". This is still of significantly higher value than Fret.net forum moderator. So save your $100.... ;)

Vood - I think that he said 'warm spit' - it was 1933 after all. Notice that I decided NOT to spell it as you did, 's*it' for reasons which will be clear since I wanted to avoid the likelihood of a misreading - not to mention the possible wrath of a moderator...

That's what many think he said, since it was apparently "cleaned up" by the media of the day, but I assure you my quote is accurate. See the following article, down next to the cartoon:

Actually there are no mods, they are just Robert using different log in names. That is why you never see more than one of them at a time.

Robert likes to make people think he has a private army. As a matter of fact, there are only three "real" forum members, there just appears to be more.

Thanks, Vood - I love learning things like that... Tho, for some reason, 'warm spit' is somehow more evocative to me still....

I do the same thing. It was sent to me a few years ago when I got in a big argument with my boss. After about a half hour of disagreement, I went back to my desk and she had already sent me an email - those damn penguins. Made her point and did it with humor.
