Note to self: Never borrow his sticks....
I like this message board because it's great to read about real people using different gear and being in different situations... I mean who cares if Dave or Vinne break a throne, or a stand because of endorsements it doesn't matter much - for us non-famous drummers it is useful to hear about "this,that,who,what,when,where, & how"
Also it's great when there's the occasional post of a video clip or mp3 file (although I personally still don't have an account on Dime!)
But overall, it's reading about what other drummers are doing all over the place. It's informative, entertaining, and really as enjoyable as reading any drum-based magazine!

Dude, did you just drop acid and watch the Passion of Christ? If so, it'll all be over in about six more hours. Wait it out....
I ... er ... well ...
WTF just happened? [img]graemlins/wonder.gif[/img]
I don't want anyone kicked off from this board. I certainly doubt that I have the "pull" to accomplish that anyway.
Your response above is more appropriate than others I've read and that's good. All that I personally want from 'posters' is intelligent conversation with insight and thought put into what they're saying, not insults & such. That's all. I'm not usually so harsh, but fundamentalism is something that rubs me wrong.
In response to your "fundamentalist creationism propaganda", here's my own propaganda: section on creation: take this conversation away from HOD please
I have too much respect for this board & Steve to let this thread run out of control into different topics.

Hi guys,
I must say that I'm rather disappointed that people aren't allowed to speak whatever they want on this message board without being censored. If that's the way it's going to be than maybe the name of the message board should be changed to "Totalitarianism chat" since not everybody here believes in the freedom of speech (that includes insulting people).
It's funny that when somebody says something that another doesn't like that they immediately want them thrown off the site (not allowed to post anymore). "Daniel Seipel" obviously wants me off! I may not have liked what "Henry II" had to say about Vinnie in Miami, but I never went as far as to say that he should be rid of or not allowed to post, etc.
I just wanted to add, when it came to the violence issue, that I believe most people know that many, many have been killed in the name of GOD. And, that was wrong; I think most people ("believers" included) know that too. However, times have changed. Ask yourself if you have ever had the feeling of walking home at night in fear of being lynched by a Christian because you don't believe in what they do, in this day and age? I seriously doubt it.
And, like "JoesMechanic" pointed out earlier - how could anybody who is a fan of Vinnie or Abe Laboriel go to see them (AT A CHURCH) and expect them to NOT talk about there faith, especially when it's so widely known that they are outspoken Christians? I don't believe that Vinnie fans are that ignorant.
And, I just don't believe that Vinnie and those guys were proselytizing. I was there; I saw and heard them. Those guys spoke from the love within their hearts. It was all very personal. How could anybody be offended by that (love)? However, I've thought about it and I feel bad for the way I attacked "Henry II" and I apologize for being rude and insulting him and his friends; and to anybody else I may have offended. I hope we can still be friends.
I will leave you with this thought though:
In order for life to have appeared spontaneously on Earth, there first had to be hundreds of millions of protein molecules of "the ninth configuration" (.09). But given the size of mass of the planet Earth, do you know how long it would have taken for just one (1) of these protein molecules to appear entirely by chance? Roughly ten to the two hundred and forty-third power - trillions of years (for just one complete complex molecule)! And, I find that far, far more difficult to believe, that life could ever just happen by spontaneous chance, than simply believing in GOD (The Creator).
"I pity the man who says there isn't a Supreme Being?every one who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe - a spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble. In this way the pursuit of science leads to a religious feeling of a special sort, which is indeed quite different from the religiosity of someone more naive." - Albert Einstein
GOD Bless!!!

Oh Yeah,
I guess I'll have to put these comments here since the other topic has been closed.
I mainly stopped using my !!!!!!!!! because Steve Holmes pointed it out to me so humorously. I wasn't aware that I did that so much until then.
Another thing that funny is how Daniel Seipel called me a 17 year old, etc., etc.
I guess "Danny" would know since it's normally only teenagers who would ever have a picture of "Wolverine" in their posts!
Enjoy those comic books buddy?! Ha, ha, ha!!!
