This forum is a sanctuary for me.

I travel all around the world for work and deal with sone messed up stuff but I always know that I can come here and get a dose of sanity.

I am on vacation now in Athens but am still posting here.

Thanks Para for maintaining the best group of people on the planet here.

BTW the view from our balcony tonight. Behind the trees is the Acropolis and Parthenon.

Cheers!

On vacation in Athens. The Parthenon outside your hotel room window.



Yeah. Praise Zeus that you have Sigforum.

Now put the tablet down and go do cool touristy shit that some of us can only dream about. Relax, Para will leave the light on for you.

Amen! I am on the flip side. I work from home, seldom leave. This forum is my view to the outside world, current events, etc. I love to visit, it is a beautiful place!

Yup, It doesn't suck here!!

This is one of the best places on all of the interwebs. Para & crew do a damn fine job moderating this forum.

This forum is a great place. I don't say a whole lot, but I check in just about every day.

First thing I do in the morning is walk the dog, feed the dog, grab a cup of coffee and then log onto this site. The site I enjoy visiting the most.

My favourite site of them all, regardless of primary subject focus.

I also am extremely appreciative of all of Para's time and effort keeping this site maintained. I feel that perhaps we should donate something, to cover his out of pocket expenses.

I have learned a lot, and being behind enemy lines in Kalifornia, feel not so isolated.

My wife asks me everyday, "You're on ESS EYE GEE again?"

I may not post every day but I do stop in at least once a day. Yup, this is my safe-place.

Agree wholeheartedly!

12131 - yeah, my wife and kids call it the Green Gun Site...

The phrase hear, hear seems to have come into existence as an abbreviation of the phrase hear him, hear him, which was well-established in Parliament in the late seventeenth century. The UK Parliament prides itself on its lively debates, and saying “hear him, hear him” was a way to draw attention to what a person was saying. And in case you were wondering, there was no “hear her, hear her” variation—the first female MP was elected in the twentieth century. Sometime during the eighteenth century hear him, hear him acquired its short form, hear, hear, and that form is still used today.

Best forum on the net. If you have a question about ANY topic, you can get the correct answer here.

Thank you Parabellum! Regards 18DAI
