Ah -- you folks haven't got it figured out, have you?  The stars and colors and "titles" are all decided by the machine.  It uses a complex formula the requires considering the time of day at the poster's location, the serial number of the poster's spouse's alarm clock, and the color of the toothpaste that the neighbor, third on the left across the street, uses for him morning hygiene.  Following that assessment the machine computes a result to determine a number, also consulting a random number chart, to apply to a Pantone color chart, from whence we get not only a color - but also a number that corresponds to the CMY formula of that color.

Got it?

Got it - modeled after the same formula for determining college football rankings.

The propeller powered postulations of the pin-dick from Pensacola have been purposefully put out to pasture from these pages.

He’s possibly peeping, but the poser is prevented from posting.

Yup, made it through doomsday.

I suppose this obligates me to finish the car . . .

Pay my BNI membership . . .

Buy Kate a Christmas gift . . .

Not to mention restock the fridge . . .

Any society that loses a 250 year war of attrition to Spain can't be counted on to produce an accurate calendar.

Sorry, that was just mean.

I'll take that Sangria to go, please.

Midget, et all,

For my Merry Christmas toast to all, (and Happy New Baktun!!), I highly recommend:

New Holland Brewing's Dragon's Milk. (an Imperial Stout, 10.0 ABV rated 98 @ ratebeer.com) I however, give it a 100 score......

http://newhollandbrew.com/beer/high-gravity-series/dragons-milk-ale-aged-in-oak-barrels/

http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/new-holland-dragons-milk/14621/

Take care, a couple of pints of this stuff takes you out of the driver's seat, and probably sends you to naptime......

 :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:
