That's "Que sera, sera" FYI. God Bless my mother, she used to listen to that record regularly.

After five weeks of operation, the USMB Coffee Shop clientele hit 70 yesterday and includes quite a few really nice newbies that I hope we can urge to stick and settle in here. When those with a clue eventually largely outnumber the numbnuts, the numbnuts either leave or they just don't bother us as much. And that makes for a board you want to be a part of.
USMB has been such a board for me.
I think your idea for a coffee shop was a good idea, but it really needs its own topic listing. I can't plow through over a thousand postings just to find a discussion I might want to take part in.
Interesting idea. How about it Gunny? Could the Coffee Shop being kind of unique on the board have its own little forum? I certainly would understand if that would be a bit presumptious, but it does get lost to some among all the other topics in the General Discussion forum.
I was wondering where that foul stench was coming from. I thought it was feta cheese for a sec.I wouldn't be surprised at all, with the mid-term elections just five short months away. This site is sure to get even more lively and colorful than it is now.
Can any of the Mods comment in regards to the increase / decrease of USMB membership. Or perhaps some of you USMB veterans. What say you? Do you welcome new-comers or do you prefer to fight it out with the regulars?
I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome ALL of the new USMB members, both left and right. This is a great board you stumbled upon and I hope you enjoy your time here. Now strap in and hold on tight! You're in for one hell of a ride!
nah just a 'surge' in old timers changing their socks.
Littlegreenfootballs? Hmmmmm?For a few years, I was a member of a paid site. The folks who occupied the message boards seemed to think that they themselves controlled how people posted. If you didn't 'fit in', they did everything in their power to drive you away. These particular individuals had been on the site since the foundation was poured. Many used their post count to try and intimidate newbies. It was pretty pathetic. I don't see that happening here, which in my opinion is a good thing.
What was really sad, was a couple of the long-time residents got the boot for bad behavior. One in particular couldn't handle it. He honestly didn't know what to do with his day if he couldn't log on to the website to post.
If I logged back in there, I imagine many, if not all of the same people are there, posting the same crap they always do. Thinking they are members of some elite board. Ha! They're living in a bubble over there.
Been there, done that. I actually cut my teeth on a leftwinger board, but they couldn't find an excuse to get rid of me. Not fairly, and I WILL give them that,. I actually left because of biased moderating. That's why I don't tolerate it here.
And it's a testament to that, that I have both sides accusing me of partisanship. Goobers.
Littlegreenfootballs gave me the boot, no excuse. But I knew I was pissing off people because I dared to have a different point of view. There's a ton of them now that get all pius over ownership and if you don't fit in, they drive you out.
I think when people are in invisible mode, they show up as guests.
No they don't.
