My favorite thread title was the one about the Supreme Court and the Dirty Sanchez video.

Maybe not great but a little interesting there for a minute. It would have been great had Steadsera selected better pics.

Anyway, in re-watching these movies, I am reminded that before the prequels, the Star Wars saga seemed to be a story of Luke Skywalker's progression from simple farmboy to Jedi Knight and Savior of the Galaxy.

However, with the prequels we get the broader vision of Lucas's epic saga. If you look at all 6 episodes, it is obvious that the Star Wars movies really have nothing to do with Luke. The real protagonist is Darth Vader. It is a 6-part series about the Rise, Fall, and Redemption of the Chosen One. The one who brings balance to the Force. In reality, Darth Vader, or Anakin, is the real Savior of the Galaxy. I know you all already know this....

Back to present day....Cougarguard, on its face, seems to be a tale of mikewaters....cast out from cougarboard...and in open rebellion, starts his own message board to compete directly with his prior opressor. Mikewaters provides a safe haven for the tired, the poor, the huddled masses yearning to be free. He becomes a Jedi in his own sphere and has done well for himself.

But as we look closer and consider the entire storyline, mikewaters, much like Luke, is simply a bit player in the broader scheme of things.

Folks, whether you all like it or not, Cougarguard has one inspired, divine purpose.....it is the final act in the story of the Rise, the Fall, and the eventual redemption of SeattleUte. we should be greatful to mikewaters for creating this site, but he was only an instrument in the hands of a Greater force. This site was decreed to be the vehicle by which SU could return to the Ninety and Nine. SU is the Chosen One who will bring balance. He has walked through the valley and has been in the refiners fire. Although he may not realize it now, the socialization he receives here will be what eventually lead him back home....the Prodigal Son returned, much like Anakin Skywalker.

And on that note, let me also say to SU that when you do pass away, I volunteer to burn your body on a large makeshift pyre.

Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.

Lawyers, academics, and "borderlanders." Enough said.

Speaking for yourself and then projecting it onto the psyche of the community at large? Doctor, what's your diagnosis of this gent?

It was a joke. There's no one I could say i have genuine dislike for here, with the possible exception of Rocky. I've said it before, I've been finding redeeming value in even SU lately.

I think everyone here for the most part can handle the cutting that goes back and forth. But to a visitor, it probably would appear everyone hates each other.

That's funny. But the list of people on CG for which I have a genuine dislike is very small. CG is great.
