if you don't remember this old game or know what it is, this will probably seem kind of stoopid:

That is a great movie. Can you tell me the lesson though. I got distracted with tryingto keep score.

it was something to do with something... something about a valuable lesson learned or something...

oh bowb, you figure it out.

i think it's about the complete lack of control one has over the universe, life and everything: the morale of the story is to live as well as one can in/through/during whatever one experiences etc.

Awwwwww.

That was so deep. How DO you do it n54. You must have a little pong dog telling you the answers to life.

Nice slip of the hand nico... Please try to refrain from doing that again.
It wasn't really sarcasm, n54. More like a bad joke. Let's just look at this picture and forget I said anything.

i was joking too but maybe i'm getting to be a grumpy old man and nobody gets it....

aww shucks

i tried to put it in the context of coming from an "MVP", maybe that's where i went wrong...

anyway, you can see my new title of "grid clown", so hopefully that makes it clear what my M.O. is...

Happy times... I think during these tough times we need to be aware that everyone means well. Smile! Share a laugh! Listen to a joke! Give someone a wet willy once in a while. If anything at all, understand the difference between verbal and visual humor. Just a few thoughts from an expanding mind. I am sure we will get to know each other better.
