Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>As usual I agree with JoAnn who is so often the voice of reason around here. Leon and I haven't always agreed but I understand the rationale here and support him. Running this board can often be a pain in the butt and he should be allowed leeway and discretion. I will still bid in REA auctions and have never had anything but excellent transactions with Rob Lifson, but I understand why the move was made.

Posted By: <b>Ryan Christoff</b><p>Peter is right. There is not such thing as "Chaosim." <br /><br />It's called "Chao Theory."<br /><br />Although I suppose they are one and the same. And yet, not the same. They are everything, and yet, nothing. Chao Theory helps people lose everything they know, everything they desire, and creates confusion in those who think that they know. The path to enlightenment is the path of the Professor!<br /><br /><img src="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n148/vajra1/prof_chaos.jpg"><br /><br /><br />-Ryan<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Peter, I'm sure you're quite the persuasive lawyer. I guess you can always win an argument if you take both sides of the issue.

Posted By: <b>JimCrandell</b><p>I've changed my mind on this issue. I now agree with Peter and for any and all questions on this matter I refer you to my new lawyer Peter Chao--give'em some more of that Chaoism Peter.

Posted By: <b>peter chao</b><p>Jim,<br /><br />Your pulling my leg aren't you? You haven't changed your position at all, have you? That's okay we can agree to disagree.<br /><br />By the way, I not only do not believe in Chaoism, I'm also not a great believer of standardized tests. I've done really well on them and I've done really bad on them. Contrary to what educators say, it's really a matter of preparation for the test more than anything else.<br /><br />Peter C.

If so, shouldn't the sentence have started with the word "Did?"<br /><br /><br />I aint learned no good grammar myself..."<br /><br />A declarative sentence can always be turned into a question. For example:<br /><br />"I can't."<br /><br />"I can't?"

What Happened to REA???
Posted By: <b>Rob Dewolf</b><p>Barry,<br /><br />I don't think this thread can get any more hijacked than it is, so I've got to ask you something that's been on my mind the entire season but especially during the playoffs: Is it just me, or does Kevin Youkilis look a lot like the guy in <i>Seinfeld</i> who was a friend of Jerry's, became a bookie and then couldn't pay off a bet Jerry made (via Kramer). And then Jerry accidently broke the guy's thumbs by slamming a trunk on his hands. I've got to search the 'Net to see whether I can find a photo.

Posted By: <b>Anthony</b><p>The guy in Seinfeld is Lee Arenberg, he's been a friend of mine since 2nd grade. He's about a foot shorter and a foot wider than Youkilis, but there is a bit of a resembelance.
|
What Happened to REA???
Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Funny, Anthony and I were exchanging Seinfeld emails just this past weekend and he told me about his childhood friend Lee. Yep, except for the height they sure look the same. The character Mike called Jerry a phony, but in a good way, as in "wow, that Michael Jordan is a real phony."

Posted By: <b>Tom Boblitt</b><p>continuing the hijack..........that was the episode where 'SUSIE' died and they had the funeral.......HILARIOUS.......<br /><br />If you don't watch Curb Your Enthusiasm, you're missing Seinfeld II. GREAT show.....
