Thanks to a suggestion by, well, someone, the new mandate, due December 6th,
2009, is "Sports and Games." As usual, you can send your submissions to the
SI Moderator here:

si dot moderator at yahoo dot com

The mandate page is here:

http://www.pbase.com/shootin/sports__games

And the rulz are here:

http://www.pbase.com/shootin/rulzpage

Based on the response both in quality and quantity to the last mandate, I
expect some great shots. Now get out there and shoot. Oh, and let's be
careful out there.

What kind of idiot would submit that as a mandate?

Oh. Never mind.

Ok, I know the term "sports" might be a little limited, but "games" opens up
the mandate to a whole 'nother world...

Do they really have Cheerleader Jelly Wrestling in Oz? If so, I'm on the
next flight.

Good mandate, I like it.

I think it is a terrible unfair mandate.
To shoot pro sports you need credentials.
To shoot youth sports you have to deal with messy things like
restraining orders and stuff.

Since when has a little think like the US system of laws and courts
been a problem to you? Hell, cheerleaders graduate and move on, so
there's always a fresh.....

Never mind.

Has our mandate major domo become dyslexic?

Those cheerleaders have damaged his sense of direction.

Next, they will turn him inside-out and we will have "wobres!"

He's making you read his name from right to left to give it added
tension.

Or more likely, it is a poor fake by someone who changed the "s" to a
"z."
Let's see, who do we know that is a bad speller?

Temporarily, since I'm dealing with a new program. Windows Live Mail
died, and cannot be revived. I've also changed to Giganews. For
thelife of me, I can't find where the display name is changed.

It must be super easy because that's the program the P&S troll uses & he
changes names hourly <g>.

maybe I should ask for a lesson on quick name changes? Actually, I'm
in Agent now, and it supports multiple personalities, so changing
handles is pretty easy. So far, I have a total of 1 personality in
Agent, which, according to my wife, is one more than I have in real
life.

I have to be careful. She owns a chain saw, and is not afraid to use
it. It's electric, too, so I'd never hear it coming.

Not a real good topic for this time of year here... too cold for summer sports

Which is why the mandate includes the "games" option. Not all games
are played on fields of grass or courts of wood.
