Bud Zumwalt Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 ??? To Luma, I read all your jokes, but this quote, "Self proclaimed internet Thai culture expert spends all holiday in Nana Plaza bar. " That really hit home. You hurt my feelings. I never go to Nana Plaza for my entire holiday, I split it up between Cowboy and Nana. Your remarks above show you have a great understanding of all issues. So, go over to my post on email proposals [post .. again and get up to date. I really need your advice. I look forward to some replies, but keep em short.

aughie Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I was poking around the internet looking for animated gifs when I came across a post on another forum by JoeStrummer. Remember that guy? What a character. I remember when I posted I thought his avatar looked stupid. He had used a pic of himself and was none too happy with my observation.
