Welcome Hatchlings!

I feel a cold draft...

/waves
welcome new lizard's :)

So- hatchlings- how about that obama guy? Is he a piece of work or what?

Open registration! I'm so excited ti find this I want to sign up all over again!

Grrr...

WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF!

Here chicky...chicky

The most creative new nic of the night gets a door prize.

I vote that every hatchling should bring a joke, and not a stupid knock-knock joke.

re: #8 Killgore Trout

The most creative new nic of the night gets a door prize.

And who can't use another door?/

Interesting -- I had to log in again to post on this thread (or at least, the username and pw text boxes were at the bottom, rather than the normal comment box)... Perhaps a function of it being an open registration thread...

re: #8 Killgore Trout

The most creative new nic of the night gets a door prize.

What *is* a door prize?

Welcome hatchlings, be sure to clean up your own shells, read Nekama's troll hammer, and behave yourselves.

Oh, and you must serve the older Lizards a sandwich and their alcoholic BEvERages of choice.

Charles, do us a favor. Please list the names of the newbies so that we can properly greet them into the community.

re: #12 MandyManners

What *is* a door prize?

You've seen them; they usually have hinges and a handle or knob, some have locks...

re: #14 really grumpy big dog Johnson

Charles, do us a favor. Please list the names of the newbies so that we can properly greet them into the community.

Hmm. That's not a bad idea.

I wonder how many DI accounts have been made so far.

re: #16 Charles

Hmm. That's not a bad idea.

And hand out the paddles...

re: #15 Pshawalaw

You've seen them; they usually have hinges and a handle or knob, some have locks...

LOL!

All newbies should have to spend at least one hour in the nearest ID thread.

re: #18 Noam Sayin'

And hand out the paddles...

Oooh! Paddles!

WOW I can't believe it... i have been visiting her almost daily for a year and this is the first time i have found registration open...thanks

re: #20 jorline

An LGF deprogramming session, perhaps?

Mandy in spanky mode. Must be the weekend...

i'll bite...i'll admit to being new. been reading the site forever, but finally timed my reading with a registration opening...

re: #16 Charles

Hmm. That's not a bad idea.

A newbie-colored nic would work (after which it would automatically change to the normal color)...

Hell, that would work for trolls, as well...

Welcome reddragon, ag2003!
Where are the rest of you new people?

re: #22 MandyManners

Oooh! Paddles!

Spankin's!

welcome reddragon :)

I finally got in here! I keep forgetting to check for the open door on the weekends.

re: #24 reddragon

Welcome reddragon.

Now that I've pissed off almost everyone, left and right, I'm sure there will be some sock puppets and disgruntled me-haters in the batch. Publishing the hatchlings' usernames may help the monitor lizards, Stinky, and me. I like it.

Let's keep an eye on that one. No, the one hiding behind him. The one with the beady eyes.

re: #23 Kulhwch

M-I-C
K-E-Y
M-O-U-S-E

That always freaked me out a little bit. I never really trusted Frankie or Annettte.

Paddles with the little ball on the end of a rather large rubber band would be just perfect - that way if they get booted for being a troll, they would still be able to entertain themselves for hours on end.

The official Georgian government account of major developments for August 10:

05:45 - A Russian jet entered Georgian airspace from Dagestan and dropped three bombs on a Tbilisi airplane factory.
07:00 - Georgian Government Forces withdrew from Tskhinvali.
07:40 - Russian jets bombed the village of Urta in Zugdidi district.
08:45 - Ten Russian jets attacked Upper Abkhazia, one of which was downed by Georgian Government troops.
09:00 - The Government of Georgia reported 45 soldiers and 47 civilians had been killed.
15:00 - Russian airplanes bombed the village of Knolevi in the northern Kareli district.
15:10 – Russian troops and Abkhaz separatists launched a ground attack on upper Kodori Gorge.
16:10 - Russian aircraft bombed the only remaining bridge on the highway linking east and west Georgia, causing a fire on the bridge. The fire has been put out, and traffic restored.
16:05 - Gori was bombed by Russian planes.
17:30 - Georgia announced a ceasefire and said troops had been withdrawn from the conflict zone.
19:05 - Russian aircraft dropped a bomb on Tbilisi Civil Airport.
19:10 - TbilAviaMsheni aviation factory was bombed by Russian warplanes again.

By noon of 10 August there were 20-25,000 IDPs from the regions of Tskhinvali and Gori, as a result of Russian attacks. The number of IDPs is growing quickly.

Six thousand Russian troops entered Georgia through Roki tunnel overnight; as well as 90 tanks; 150 Armored Personnel Carriers and 250 artillery gunships.
Four thousand Russian troops landed at Ochamchire port in Abkhazia, from the Black Sea port of Sevastopol.

It took me forever to catch a registration window and finally get an account, but now that I finally do have an account, I'm always around for them.

Go figure.

It's very interesting to be lucky enough to be on the site at exactly the right moment.

Even more interesting is the inevitable hazing that follows...so...just curious...eaten any good paintings lately?

Been visitin' for a looong time...Finally in.
Thanks for the opening!

I'm watching this so-called 16 year old Chinese gymnast, and I'm thinking that if she's over 11, it's a lie.

The Olympics are becoming like the Nobel Peace Prize.

Ha! I made it!

re: #38 MandyManners

Thanks Mandy, I was just going to ask for a timeline. Looking up history in the region since 1991 now. Anybody else have a synopsis?

Being here in the days before registration became the norm, LGF was a wild west frontier and we had a ball!

I miss those days sometimes.

About time, I was getting a craving for some fresh hatched lizard

re: #28 christheprofessor

A newbie-colored nic would work (after which it would automatically change to the normal color)...

Hell, that would work for trolls, as well...

I like that. For the fist "X" days a nic would show as green. I don't think that would be too hard a coding trick.

re: #62 RememberSekhmet?

Hey! Keep it clean, now!

re: #64 gwillie

Put a little hot sauce on it.

Toronto Explosion/Fire at Propane Depot UPDATE: One firefighter died battling the blaze. An employee of the facility is unaccounted for. He is of East Indian origin. Police have not been able to locate him. And police have not been able to establish contact with the owner of the facility. The owner is believed to be overseas. Some 18 hours after the initial blast, politicians have given the all-clear (approx. 8pm ET), BUT POLICE DENY THE ALL-CLEAR. According to 680 News, residents returning to their homes are being turned away! Developing...

Woohoo after years of checking this site several times a day I finally get registered!

Ok Not sure where I heard this joke but it's all I got.

Knock Knock

You said that you would never forget me :(

Bush is being interviewed by Costas. GWB said he told Putin that their actions were unacceptable in Georgia.

Schnuck in. Wheee.

re: #58 marioworld5

You think gettin' in was a tough cookie,

re: #57 christheprofessor

Great nic... I suspect you aren't too happy with modern libs...

You are correct. I could go into a rant, but I just got here.

Viewing the Spy, it seems at least one of our new hatchlings has a real interest in defending Russia with it's new dinging powers.

re: #71 jorline

I'm watching Jorline..good interview!

Glad to be hear.

Hello all.

re: #82 Capitalist Tool

Nothin' but good memories of Isaac Hayes- rest in peace, good Sir.

Sorry, but--with his alignment with Scientology, plus his hypocrisy about goring others' bulls but being offended about his own, I say Matt and Trey were good to cut him loose.

A snip from the draft of the 2008 Democratic Platform

A World without Nuclear Weapons.

America will seek a world with no nuclear weapons and take concrete actions to move in this direction. We face growing threats of terrorists acquiring nuclear weapons or the means to make them with more countries seeking nuclear weapons, unsecured nuclear materials in many countries, and of the potential spread of nuclear technologies. As George Shultz, Bill Perry, Henry Kissinger and Sam Nunn have warned, current measures are not adequate to address these dangers. We will maintain a strong and reliable deterrent as long as nuclear weapons exist, but America will be safer in a world that is reducing reliance on nuclear weapons and ultimately eliminates all of them. We will make the goal of eliminating nuclear weapons worldwide a central element of U.S. nuclear weapons policy.

Huzzah! I finally made it in.

re: #96 FresnoBob

Hello all.

Hello Bob..good to have you here..I was born in Firebaugh and only someone from Fresno would know where that is.

re: #65 Quilly Mammoth

I like that. For the fist "X" days a nic would show as green. I don't think that would be too hard a coding trick.

that would work but perhaps instead for "x" number of posts a newbie color nic then normal

I have had the worst timing for the longest freakin' time on registration, I thought Charles had to be watching for when I went to take a leak to open it up. I almost took that leak when I saw registration open and was typing so fast I put in a hybrid email that goes nowhere. I realized the mistake when the confirming email didn't come back and, sputtering and swearing, dove back in for another go at it. I thought for sure the door would come crashing down on my back halfway through, but alas, I have made it in time.

Anyway, I have toweled off and am really glad to be here.

Howdy, Lizards! I am not new, but tomorrow is my one year anniversary, so hooray and huzzah!

re: #108 Sharmuta

I doubt it.

Nearly two years frequenting this sight and I finally made it through the door. Thank you for letting me in.

re: #102 Mich-again

poprostu seems to have registered in 2005. The profile says 7 comments but I didn't find them - maybe I searched wrong.

Yeah, it's always funny. Someone a few months ago accused be of invading their privacy by outing their dings.

Can't believe it I have been reading this site for a long time and just got in and turned on computer and dang got to register. Thanks Charles!

re: #98 Killgore Trout

Welcome newbies. If you've been paying attention, you'll note that the tray tables are to be left in the upright and locked position for takeoff and landing, firsts will be dealt with harshly, Nekama's troll hammer is your friend, and a sense of humor is a must.

re: #117 lawhawk

These people are feckless in their insatiable need to disarm the US against present and future threats.

This particular passage from their platform is meaningless boiler plate filler to placate the Kumbaya crowd in the fold. Then again its all meaningless boiler plate material for one special interest group or another.

Anyone can write a hundred pages of empty headed feel-good nonsense. I'd rather see the Dems try to boil down their reason for existence in one paragraph. If the Dems had to write a mission statement, it would be pure gobbleygook. They have no mission other than to get elected.

Must need to replenish the ranks after so many stopped visiting since Charles began his anti-ID crusade.

If they can't figure out the scroll option...good riddance. I don't care for those threads, so I don't read them. No one forces anyone to post. It's called being a grownup.

How's by you?

re: #173 Lemon

Hey, will you look at that? I've managed to squeeze my way in. It's a pleasure to finally be an official member of the Lizardoid Army.

How long should it be before I get my badge and stuff?

I do get a badge, right?

Your badge is your avatar...and that's up to you.

re: #181 Red Cloud

Stay safe, Red Cloud.

And thank you for what you are doing for us.

re: #136 DistantThunder

The emerging narrative, echoing across editorial pages and on television news programs in the US, portrays Georgia as an embattled, pro-Western country struggling to secure its borders against a belligerent Russia. Since coming to power in a bloodless revolution in late 2003, Saakashvili has certainly steered a clear course toward the West. The EU flag now flies alongside the Georgian one on major government buildings (even though Georgia is a long way from ever becoming a member of the EU). The Saakashvili government seeks Georgian membership in NATO, an aspiration strongly supported by the administration of George W. Bush. Oddly, before the conflict erupted on its own soil Georgia was the third-largest troop contributor in Iraq, a result of Saakashvili's desire to show absolute commitment to the US and, in the process, gain needed military training and equipment for the small Georgian Army. Russia must be condemned for its unsanctioned intervention. But the war began as an ill-considered move by Georgia to retake South Ossetia by force. Saakashvili's larger goal was to lead his country into war as a form of calculated self-sacrifice, hoping that Russia's predictable overreaction would convince the West of exactly the narrative that many commentators have now taken up.

This new hatchling is Dutch and finally saw his chance to join the lizardoid army. This made him chuckle contently. Hello all.

re: #181 Red Cloud

Thank you for your service! We should have a special back door registration for service members!

re: #166 rwmofo

OK the door just closed. You FNGs move to the front of the room. We're going to hose and de-louse now. Hey! Catch that guy running away!

Too late. He's being an asshole in the Russian thread.

Welcome.
My nephew served in Iraq, he too was in the Army.

Oh poop-on-a-stoop, the door closed before "Bonkey-bonkey bork-bork-bork Tunapiano" could be registered. I sad. I cry. No more sunnie day. Poo in the punchbowl. Now poor li'l sokky puppet will have to remain out in the cold and rain and the birds will pick at him and make nests out of his frail body and he will slowly become nothing but a sad faint memory like the pets.com puppie-doggie. Oh the humanity!

I grieve for our nation and never-to-be-born B-b b-b-b T. Maybe John Edwards can sue on our behalf...

re: #38 MandyManners

Six thousand Russian troops entered Georgia through Roki tunnel overnight; as well as 90 tanks; 150 Armored Personnel Carriers and 250 artillery gunships.

Someone needs to blow that tunnel. At this point Russia has indicatedthey never intended to defend any Ossetians, they used it as a pretext for eradicating Georgia. Blow the tunnel, let them starve in Georgia. They can't keep up the logistics forever. They can fight yet another insurgency, since the Soviets are so good at it. Somebody better get off their ass and do something to help Georgia. This is disgraceful. Let me take 30 days of leave and I'll go fight.

Zionist Embedded Message ?

Drat. I missed open registration again. How will I ever get an account?

re: #102 Mich-again

A snip from the draft of the 2008 Democratic Platform:

A World without Nuclear Weapons.

America will seek a world with no nuclear weapons and take concrete actions to move in this direction. We face growing threats of terrorists acquiring nuclear weapons or the means to make them with more countries seeking nuclear weapons, unsecured nuclear materials in many countries, and of the potential spread of nuclear technologies. As George Shultz, Bill Perry, Henry Kissinger and Sam Nunn have warned, current measures are not adequate to address these dangers. We will maintain a strong and reliable deterrent as long as nuclear weapons exist, but America will be safer in a world that is reducing reliance on nuclear weapons and ultimately eliminates all of them. We will make the goal of eliminating nuclear weapons worldwide a central element of U.S. nuclear weapons policy.

I want a world without nuklar wehpons. I wouldn't mind getting a pony and a ducky either. Or a billion dollars. Or my own city in space.

re: #53 really grumpy big dog Johnson

I'm watching this so-called 16 year old Chinese gymnast, and I'm thinking that if she's over 11, it's a lie.

The Olympics are becoming like the Nobel Peace Prize.

I saw a couple of female athletes that I doubt seriously are females.

I'm doing fine, lady - no worries.

See you later, if I'm awake. These all-night sessions are a bit wearing, at my age . . .

re: #229 rwmofo

So watching CNN is kinda like Patton reading Rommel's book.

"Rommel... you magnificent b---d, I read your BOOK!"

Great, great movie.

And yes, watching CNN is a little like that, but it's also rather like hitting yourself in the head with a hammer. I suppose it's better than watching MSNBC...

Bush is being interviewed by Costas. GWB said he told Putin that their actions were unacceptable in Georgia.

I saw that. I wanted to smack that grin off his face and inform him our ally is being pummeled right now. WTF would Reagan do?
