Yes! Chris Matthews especially slays me, he asks a question and after about the third spoken word of the answer he is already interrupting with another comment or question in rapid fire succession.

Okay...I through out my .02 cents with my 1st post on this thread and I had a feeling that it was going to get shot down, but I had to test the "waters".

I was toying with the idea, and I'm glad you brought it up NDD, about you guys (The Admins and other QP's) issuing us titles/names. You know most of us anyways from other boards/houses.

You are after all a "Brotherhood" and this is YOUR house and we are guests in this house. What better why to be "initiated" into your house, than by having our very own "Delta Tau Ki" name.

When I first came here and saw R.L.'s "title", I was LMAO. I thought 'How Fitting' and that I'd better watch my P's and Q's about bashing lawyers or I just might wake up with a horse's head in my bed.

Now if ya'll excuse me, I've got to go and make sure all my windows are closed and spoons are tucked away.

My .02 cents

Team Sergeant and Admins,

Team Sergeant = You are "the man" its your site so your title should be whatever the hell you want your title to be.

Admins = Damn close to whatever you want your title to be seeing how you are damn close to being "the man".

SF personal past and present = Quiet Professional

All else = whatever you call the indigious personal in your target countries or environments. Because we like them are here to learn from you. Granted I would rather my title not be "guerilla fighter" or "indigious personal" but if its something like that well then so be it.

I think it would keep with the environment or theme of the site.

Just my .02 cents
