The Moderator's Mailbag

I am embarking on this new thread because I thought it would be informative for posters to hear general comments that their fellow posters are expressing to me.

Some parameters first.

1. Nothing will be quoted without the express prior written permission of the writer who sent it to me.

2. The writer will not be identified. Any subsequent posts which attempt to identify the writer will be deleted from the thread.

3. My posts will be comments of a general interest, and will not be those that are complaints about specific posters.

4. Posters are welcome to comment on topic, however posts that stray from the topic, and/or are attempts to threadjack, will be deleted at my discretion.

5. My posts will occur sporadically, as I receive messages that I believe warrant distribution to the board.

6. The subject line will change with each new post, however the main thread title will remain "The Moderator's Mailbag."

There are many posters who have opinions about the board, but who do not feel comfortable articulating their opinions publicly. This is an opportunity for their opinions to be heard. Please treat those opinions with the same respect you that would expect for your own.

"thank you for posting those beautiful wintry pictures of NYC... as long as your granting wishes, what would it take to delete all those "appreciation", "hot", "where is" threads that clog up O/T board?"

Oh, and here I was hoping you'd post the best flames you got. Damn your ethics.

How old is that PM? There's only 1 thread of the top 50 on the OT board about either show right now.

"what the hell are they putting in the eggnog down at the BWW cafeteria this week? i've never seen such snarky, spiteful behavior from so many immature individuals in one 24 hour period."

I put in three parts spit, two parts vinegar. Sorry about that.

I am thinking about checking that day, to see if it is about me. I am really THAT paranoid.

what exactly is egg nog? It's spoken about all the time on American films but i've never heard of anyone in England drinking it... or whether you could even get it for that matter? Am i missing out again?

I love egg nog. I think it's made from eggs, milk, and spices. It sometimes has alcohol in it. It is soooo good, but not very healthy! I'm not sure you can get it in England, but if you can't, you should be able to make it yourself.

ETA: I found a recipe!

I love eggnogg! Just had it the other night. It's so great. They really make lactaid eggnogg? Wow. That's awesome!

In the South they used to sell Eggnog and something called Boiled Custard that was very similar. I think the Custard was less spicey. Not sure though.
