Hi. I'm Dmesg and I haven't spent nearly enough time in the lounge
Since it's spring break and I don't have to think about MOSFETs or z-transforms for a week or so, I'm enraptured by the prospect of pleasant conversation. I've been on the Internet since about 1987 and frankly I don't recognize the old place anymore, but this seems like the kind of haven for inside jokes, mutual support, and snarkiness that Usenet was back in the Elder Days. So I think I'm going to drop my usual haunts of GDP and Guns for a while and remind myself why the Internet was worth being invented...

1. Welcome to the Lounge.
The bar is stocked with just about every beverage imaginable. The chairs are comfy, and the conversations are mostly light.

:hi:

6. The season is almost here!!!
I was one of the shadowy conspiracy group that tried to get our boys named "The Grays" (the best team in pro baseball history, statistically). I was sad that the Powers That Be came down against that, especially since Fenty really seemed to like the idea when i talked to him.

13. Set your response lever for 'mock outrage,'
your initial post button for 'shenanigans' and settle in. We'll be up to utter silliness in no time.
