You both deserve this, congrats!

No doubt Obama's a nice guy, but he's a pussy. As are most democrats....who's this "obama" guy again?
-
Indeed. He was one of the rare few honest politicians. He's the only one in Canada who could achieve such great things.
-
He was, until very recently, leader of the New Democratic Party of Canada, which is the Official Opposition.
The NDP is a social-democratic party. Here's a list of some of its principles and policies, taken from Wikipedia.
[*]Gender equality and equal rights for LGBT residents
[*]Improving environmental protection through government regulations
[*]National water safety standards
[*]Increasing corporate taxes[6]
[*]Reducing poverty in Canada[7]
[*]Aggressive human rights protection
[*]Expanding funding for public transportation
[*]Expanding public health care, including dental and prescription drug coverage
[*]Social assistance policies that reflects citizens' needs and assist their re-entry to the work force
[*]Abolishing the unelected Senate of Canada and ensuring more proportional representation[8]
[*]Workers' rights including raising the minimum wage to pace the cost of living
[*]Aboriginal peoples' treaty, land, and constitutional rights
[*]A foreign policy that emphasizes diplomacy, peacekeeping, and humanitarian aid instead of offensive military action
[*]Renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
[*]One wing is focused on ending the Canadian War on Drugs and legalizing recreational drugs[9]
[*]Lowering taxes for small businesses
Jack Layton was a truly amazing guy. Very charismatic and optimistic... There aren't many politicians like him.

Truly a sad day for Canada. Rest in peace, Jack.

I'd be glad to run it. I wouldn't really need any help, though. I enjoy writing, doing interviews, editing... Pretty much everything the job entails. I've got plenty of ideas to keep the newsletter entertaining and, more importantly, useful. My only request, however, is to allow me to accept/decline applications to the team. As I said before; I don't really need that much help. And every time I get involved in something like this, it ends up being crowded with members who either don't know what they're doing or don't do anything.(Hell, there doesn't even have to be a team.)Would you be interested in leading the team, Aliath? Lord knows Delly shouldn't.

T Ranger is good, but after hours of dedicated playing I can beat some of his scores.Just doubled Henry's tetris score. Still the reigning champion of Archery 2000.
-
I'd be willing to help. :PI think I'm qualified.
-
That it gets boring, quickly. And then I have to take a very long break.
-
I have to say, things have been rather dull without our dearest Mono.
-
So, the Arcade, huh? A lot of rivalries in there, am I right? I pwn at Archery 2000, do I not?
-
'twas a beautiful entry, MP.

I'd be willing to purchase stocks from MSTR if you were to show me some sort of guarantee of your activity in the near future? Maybe, hmm, a gift of sorts? A favor? *extremely suggestive wink*Damn. I've let the stockholders down. No more vacation for me.
-
The Grand Exchange looks really, really nice.
-
Welcome to the clan! :)Your RS history oddly mirrors mine.
-
I knew Mono was going on vacation-- I'd have been an idiot to buy stocks from MSTR. I've invested wisely.

I've always prefered Olivia Wilde.

The first one looks a hell of a lot like Taylor Swift.David, you couldn't be further from the right answer. Olivia Wilde is much prettier, you sonofabitch.
