Oh, uh, there won't be any money. But when you die, on your death bed, you will receive total consciousness.
So I got that going for me

which is nice.
You should go get the clap just so you can give it to her. --beef
Whenever I see someone wearing the Boston jacket I like to say, "Oh, charity entry, huh?" and watch the reaction. It's always entertaining.

And once again Mr. Wizard (aka: Stevie Ray) explains the internet.
Whoa. Um, that previous post should not have occurred.
There is nothing to see here. Nothing at all.

Umm, SRL quoting a post without a reply? Must have been struck dead mid-post because he NEVER would commit that breach of internet etiquette otherwise.
It's Nemo's fault, actually. He posted a link intended to focus on a post, but actually the link was to a reply page.

I need to be more patient.
Yeah, but the thing is, I dunno what I hit that caused it to post. I accept it was a User Error, but I didn't do the obvious thing that would have caused it to go sploosh.
That's actually part of the weirdness. It posted a quote from Nemo... but it would not let me add text below the quote. Not even an "oops I'm sorry". I could diddle with the text in the quote box, but I couldn't do anything else.
But for the record:
>> I'm totally coming to maine and wearing that fucker everywhere.
Ok.

Is this rule only about Boston jackets, or are other shirts/jackets taboo too? I always followed the concert t-shirt rule - you can't wear the shirt of the band you're listening to.

Yeah, I figured. I am relieved that you have not been struck dead by the Internet Gods. BTW I recently saw bhearn wearing a Boston jacket and I absolutely knew it was not a charity entry.
And by the way, after April 15, 2013, assuming all goes well, I will be wearing that fucker everywhere as well. Hey RWOL refugees, I can write "fucker" and it won't be censored!
You mean besides "don't wear the race shirt in that day's race". That specific comet has/had a fairly rapid return rate on RWOL.

Oooh. I learned something useful today.
