  |

Just a thought:
Could we have a new title, "dunce." the idea as I am thinking it would allow individual members to make wagers with one another about the future. The looser wears the "dunce's cap" for a week or month or what ever.
It would help to have a thread dedicated to "dunce's cap challenges" where formal challenges can be made and then accepted or denied. At the end of the challenge period, the wager would be settled and the looser given the new label.
What do you think? Good idea? Should I go have another cup of coffee?

Make your wager, and i'll be happy to tag the loser. The label will be Dunce of the Day with the cap underneath as an image.
Good enough?

I guess I "win" today. I'll have to work out the image later. I have to find one and get it loaded up...maybe if aaron sees this before i get it done he can find one and install it

Precisely why people/politicians ride the fence.
Those who have balls that clank enough to make a wager should be rewarded - win or lose.
Those that sit on the sidelines and chuck stones at the players should be skull fucked.
