ME TOO...hope this is within the boundaries to post but I wrote the Mods and requested an official Arnold Shapiro Debate thread. I would hope we could POLITELY and respectfully continue the conversation..as it was being done.

I know I won't be starting an AS debate thread.

As best as I can remember, I thought we were on the subject of actions and results, nothing personal.

Why not Lance? As long as we stay within the boundaries set for the other HG's. He is an integral part of the show, and therefore should be open for discussion no?

Lurk, I did not bash you. I honestly thought you were kidding me. I was apologizing. I don't do that very often. NOw I am off to bed.

Funny how you apologized 5 min after I sent a complaint in to the mods along with my request, when your original post was a long time ago. Things that make you go hmmmmm....hang on I'll get you a link Laisey

Lurk, I have no clue what you are talking about. I am not a moderator. I saw your thread was pulled and wanted to tell you I was only teasing you about Arnold. You sometimes have joking posts, so I thought you were kidding. You can take that for what it's worth.
When you said it was a debate thread, I thought you were kidding. I do that all the time. I'll tease people who post in my threads.
How would I know what you email to the mods?

Ok--this has gone on long enough! PLEASE take a time out for awhile from this thread.

Well let's both call it a day on this topic and agree to disagree. I value fairness above most things in this world and felt that if there could be a forum to extol Arnie's virtues we could also have a place to politely and intelligently discuss what many here view as his shortcomings (NOT bash him).

But truce...fine by me.

Costacat popped in with bellinis, realized she missed a whole lotta I don't know what while she was watching the west coast edition of BB4, promptly turns tail and runs...

Costa, I hope you left the bellinis. I really need one.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind wetting the whistle as well.

I want to complain about something I discovered a few days ago. No matter how many times I push the mute button, my TV remote has no effect on the FOTH music. I really would like to have this problem resolved, but I don't know if I should complain to Real or to my TV manufacturer. Problems, problems, problems.

it is interesting what careful editing can do. If you watch BB4 TV show, you would get the impression that Nate was gay. If you read this board, you would get the impression will all love Arnie.

God Bless the editors for they create realities that meet their expectaions.

Costacat

Hey Xarph. Whether Nathan is gay or not doesn't matter to me, as I still don't like him. But I do want to say that I don't love Arnie.

I think the editors create their own unique little realities that meet the expectations (dare Isay "demands"?) of the folks who sign their paychecks.

Not that there's anything wrong with doing what the boss tells you to do. Well, er... up to a point, I guess! <grin>

Costa, Is that point the point at which many a sexual harassment suit has begun?

It looks to me like Jason Blair, formerly a staff writer on the New York Times, now has a new job.

This link has lots of places for debates on Arnold's work:

I don't think people will mistake our board as pro or con anyone..LOL

And that thread is what you would do if you were in charge of the show which is a very different topic than what we were POLITELY discussing. Suggestions about what any of us would do holding the reins is very different from discussing what we feel a certain person may be doing incorrectly now.

I still feel the PERFECT compromise is an Arnold Shapiro DEBATE thread that aheres to the rules of the board as clearly posted. That will provide the perfect forum for the lively and interesting chat many of us had going earlier.
