not to disparage any of the fine folks within this apparently useful thread, but I refuse to cheapen an already trivial experience, in an attempt to raise my postcount to a level which unlocks, what I can only assume to be golden riches. I won't pretend to be The Best Poster, nor the most prolific (look at that buffguy over there), but I can at least try to contribute, albeit with a half-hearted effort at spell-checking, and often with long blocks of words, that very rarely make cohesive sense.
as far as I can tell, this is a board dedicated to THE BEST Show, and as a Fan of The Best Show, or Friend of Tom (if only in the virtual sense), I feel it my allegiant duty to put forth such an effort in homage to all the hard work that's been practically GIVEN to me. we're talking about people who are the FP of FP's, and yet, slobs that we are, a two-syllable sentence, or one-word phrase is all we try to put on the plate.
I may not own a Gorch t-shirt, nor even the one that says "NEWBRIDGE IS FOR LOVERS" (although a guy here at work wears both), but I will not debase myself even further by muttered snippets.
I will blather until the forum's wonky formatting prevents me from seeing my words, which is right about now....
EDIT: MORE WORDS
