And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne!

We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,

I am obligated to finish my clan games, so I thought I would offer a name change that was completely opposite of the identity of the original, yet also represented the "wit" that I so luv about our original identity. Many in the clan do not remember the old days where the Apostles and myself were the brunt of early clan goading because we were a bunch of fundamentalist nut-cases. I tried to dispell that thinking by saying chess was a spiritual game for no other reason that there were limitless possibilities. Anyway, as you can tell, it is a little more earthly identity.
How do the rest of the former Apostles feel about that sudden transformation?

I have one reservation about accepting ivanhoe's support.
Will you be attempting to obey the Law of Conservation of Troublemakers?
Will your acceptance of my return be contingent upon one of my colleagues being offered up in a sacrificial ban to preserve the delicate balance here?

Originally posted by DoctorScribblesYes, Ivanhoe did us a great favor with that illustration, as Pradtf points out so eloquently in this quote. I wonder if Pradtf is also prepared to extend the olive branch to Herr Dr?

How bout' I get a little credit for pradtf not being able to recruit "kids" to meet "the good doctor" without a parent present?
