    [​IMG] No typo, more like bad paste. I'll fix it. And yes, the text did change to Message Boards, along with some other stuff on that panel.

    As for
    No, I don't, since there's no limitation. However, after you have a post with more than 300 replies in it, it starts to get slower and slower to add new replies every time. It's ok up to 1000, but there's really no sense in letting it go that far. It's pointless spam anyway.

    phpBB is nice, but it's still lacking at least half of the modifications I've made to this one.

    Actually, my favorite is VBulletin by Jelsoft Enterprises Limited (as at BIS). http://www.vbulletin.com/

    phpBB is the worst type I've ever seen.

    UBB (as long as hacks are released) can still look fresh and new. Good choice Tal!

    There was a murder in the red barn
    Murder in the red barn

    The trees are bending over and
    The cows are lying down
    The autumn's taking over
    You can hear the Buckshot hounds
    The watchman said to Reba the loon
    Was it pale at Manzanita
    Was it Blind Bob Raccoon?
    Pin it on a drifter
    They sleep beneath the bridge
    One plays the violin
    And sleeps inside a fridge

    There was a murder in the red barn
    A murder in the red barn

    Now they surrounded the house
    The smoked him out
    They took him off in chains
    The sky turned black and bruised
    And we had months of heavy rains
    Now the raven's nest in the rotted roof
    Of Chenoweth's old place
    And no one's asking Cal
    About that scar upon his face
    'Cause there's nothin' strange
    About an axe with blood stains
    in the barn
    There's always some killin'
    You got to do around the farm

    A murder in the red barn
    A murder in the red barn

    Now a lady can't do nothin'
    Without
    Folks' tongues waggin'
    Is that
    Blood on the tree
    Or is it autumn's red blaze
    When the ground is soft for diggin'
    And the rain will bring all its gloom
    There's nothin' wrong with a lady
    Drinkin' alone in her room

    There was a murder in the red barn
    A murder in the red barn...

    "Murder in the Red Barn"

    Eat It
    by Al Yankovic

    Lyrics:

    How come you're always such a fussy young man
    Don't want no Captain Crunch, don't want no Raison Bran
    Well, don't you know that other kids are starving in Japan
    So eat it, just eat it

    Don't want to argue, I don't want to debate
    Don't want to hear about what kind of food you hate
    You won't get no dessert 'till you clean off your plate
    So eat it

    Don't you tell me you're full
    Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
    Get yourself an egg and beat it
    Have some more chicken, have some more pie
    It doesn't matter if it's boiled or fried
    Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it
    Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it, ooh

    Your table manners are some cryin' shame
    You're playin' with your food, this ain't some kind of game
    Now, if you starve to death, you'll just have yourself to blame
    So eat it, just eat it

    You better listen, better do what you're told
    You haven't even touched your tuna casserole
    You better chow down or it's gonna get cold
    So eat it

    I don't care if you're full
    Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
    Open up your mouth and feed it
    Have some more yogurt, have some more spam
    It doesn't matter it it's fresh or canned
    Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
    Don't you make me repeate it
    Have a banana, have a whole bunch
    It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
    Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
    Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it

    Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
    If it's gettin' cold, reheat it
    Have a big dinner, have a light snack
    If you don't like it, you can't send it back
    Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
    Get yourself an egg and beat it (oh lord)
    Have some more chicken, have some more pie
    It doesn't matter if it's boiled or fried
    Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
    Don't you make me repeat it (oh no)
    Have a banana, have a whole bunch
    It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
    Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it

    Star Trek Rhapsody (set to tune of Bohemian Rhapsody) by Weird Al:

    I am the Captain of the Starship Enterprise.
    Captain Kirk! This is Spock. Please step on the transporter
    Dilithium crystals! Hit by Klingon missiles! No!
    I'm a doctor!
    Not an actor!
    Not a milkman!
    What does that mean?
    And I'm sorry, he's dead Jim.

    Photon torpedo-o-o.

    Lieutenant Uhura, open hailing frequency.
    Yes, Captain Kirk, opening hailing frequency, sir.
    Let's boldly go where no-one's gone before.

    Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

    Beam me up, Mr Scott.
    Sulu go to warp.
    Warp three, sir.
    No! That will be way too slow.
    Warp four, sir?
    That still is way too slow.
    Warp five, sir?
    That still is too damn slow.
    Warp six?
    It's too damn slow.
    Warp seven?
    It's too damn slow.
    It's too damn slo-o-o-o-w.

    No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

    Mr Chekov, Mr Chekov.
    I am firing torpedo.
    That will not work, and would be illogical to me, to me, to meeeee.

    Heh, Weird Al rocks... :D

    Ok so I'm playing my new gutar. I doing pretty good. I've got a few notes memorized now and I'm learning how to play one right after another. My mom comes in and tells me to close all my windows and turn it down. It was on Valume 1.

    I'm thinking the only time I will play it any more will be when she's gone so she can't hear me.

    [​IMG] !!!!!!!!
    DAY 1!!
    !!!!!!!!

    Here we are, the wait is over or (almost over.) Let's kick it off with the opening crawl:

    There is unrest in the Galatic Senate. Several thousand solar systems have declared their intentions to leave the Republic.

    The seperatist movement, under the leadership of Count Dooku, has made it difficult for the limited number of Jedi Knights to maintain peace and order in the galaxy.

    Senator Amidala, the former Queen of Naboo, is returning to the Galatic Senate to vote on the critical issue of creating an ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC to assist the overwhelmed Jedi...

    And then something that has never happened before: the camera tilts up instead of down. Interesting.

    Although it's not said in the movie, the EU literature I think has revealed that there are about 10,000 Jedi Knights (I guess this isn't counting Padawans) in the galaxy at the beginning of AOTC. There's going to be a lot of deaths between Episode II and IV ;).

    And one more thing to look out for when you go see the movie... Remember in Episode IV, A New Hope, the stormtrooper hits his helmet on the doorway when a group of them enters the Death Star room C-3PO and R2-D2 are in (during the trash compactor sequence.) Well in Episode II, somebody hits their helmet again on a doorway. So be on the lookout for that ;).

    Lryics to my bands new song (punk band)Its your loss

    VERSE

    I want to stay at home
    And not get out of bed
    But I hate being alone
    I sometimes wish I was dead

    But I am sick and tired
    Of you playing with my mind
    Our time has expired
    But I will give it another try
    *Quick break*
    VERSE 2

    When I go to school
    I see you standing there
    And all I want to do
    Is hold you hand

    Yeah you mean that much to me
    And I don’t want to leave
    People say we’re not meant to be
    Its not like they try to see

    CHORUS

    [And] I try to do my best
    I tried to pass your test
    But then I over shot
    You didn’t want to carry on
    *Music bit thing*
    It’s your loss
    It’s your loss

    VERSE 3
    Now every time I see you
    You’re always with that guy
    I wonder if you have a clue
    He’s the guy no one likes

    He tried to ruin my friends
    And he did for a while
    But now he is at it again
    I just want to see you smile

    CHORUS

    *Break*

    If what you say is true
    That you don’t want me
    And not said at face value
    It’s your loss

    CHORUS x 2

    What do you think of them?

    [​IMG] Lighten up Christopher Lee, it's not dull, it's a tip of the hat to a goof that happened in the original Star Wars.

    To a non-fan it may sound dumb, but to a fan it's classic.
