Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?

Some things just cannot be explained.

Xyzzy *IS* the forum. You could ask as well why the whole forum is blue. I guess he just feels a little blue, and that reflects here. I personally prefer it like this rather that he sees red or has a blackout.
I don't know if you remarked, but his user id is $\infty$ and his name is randomly mirrored backwards. The former just means that he lives outside of space and time, the latter - well, we all wonder what changes this leaves to presume.
All these things are way beyond the degree of bizarreness of my grammar.
Yours H.

I think that "Mike" is beyond the "Windoze" mentality. He has multiple personas. Although he has ultimate "root" authority, he generally makes his comments in the persona of a "lowly peon". Some of the rest of us can not avail ourselves of those "different hats" and our posts, whether as a "member" or a "moderator" all appear in the same context.

That answer is easy. Blue is the default.

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Tears fill my eyes 'till I can't see

3 o'clock in the mornin, here am I
Sitting here so lonely, so lonesome I could cry

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?

Now that it's over, I realize
Those weak words you wispered, were nothing but lies
Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?

Why can't you be blue, over me?

That post was inspired by the ever-beautiful, yodeling Leann Rimes, raman193707721, two milligrams of clonazepam and an unknown quantity of Luksusowa. Potato vodka, baby! None of that highly-advertised "premium" vodka that is all image without substance.

Note to self: Hide vodka from you know who.

You forgot the free Peugeot...far worse than being banned. The super-mod stuff is only by way of partial recompense for the pain of the Peugeot.

(At least it's not a Saab, though ... let's not even go down that road, the memories are just too painful.)

Oh, I "hid" it alright - you'll never find it now.

Nothing can teach me "spoken" Mid-Atlantic English like this math forum...
