I think I've seen this routine before.
No Birkenhead, Beatnik Hasn't won. We all know we need Jim. And I think he knows it too. And he has been very clever here, God love him. He's called my bluff.
He knows I couldn't give over the time he does to the forum. I can't do what he does at the moment. All I wanted was a change of direction and today we've had it to a certain extent.
Of course there is, and always will, be the strong clothing content and If you notice I tend to keep out of that.
I just wanted to be entertained and have some fun. Things have been a touch more 'edgy' today but that's good don't you think?
Jim's the man. I just wanted to give him a little shake that's all...
If you think i'm a hoho who should piss off let me know, and if enough of you feel that way I certainly will.

Now Russell withdraws from the Forum for a bit (Perhaps for a wank too). As though to say "See how you get on without me, You shall wander lost in the Ivy desert without my strong staff of leadership."
Then he returns to a heroes welcome!
Masterful Uncle, you are playing us like the proverbial piano...
This is better drama than you and Pope Gibbo's shoeshine tales. Bravo!
Brideshead you are a good sport. Good on you chum.
Sorry -
No tricks from me. (I was doing the school run!)
I really would like some new blood here.
And I really do like the idea of Big B., Prof. Kelp & NSB shaking things up.
Why not?
I'll still post, but I'd like to be a 'member'.
The whole 'leader' thing is bad for all of us, IMO.
This ship won't sail without you, Skipper.
Few can match your knowledge and your drive.
Also you see a bigger picture with an editor's eye.
The demise of J. Simons is obviously something of a dividing point; yes, it's the end of one era but it can also mean the start of something new and in many ways better. Knowledge of and access to all this can now be global and some will always want to know more. It will never be mass market again but as long as a few inquisitive minds get fired up by the look that's enough.
I know how keen you are to see other people come here from different points of embarcation. That lifeblood would all be lost if you were to be just another schmo.
My tuppence worth.
I'm very shy of all that "Godfather of..." schtick.
Pick me a title & I'll sail under it.
The only gig here is just to keep the door forever open.
A. Squire came, can Alan C. be far behind?
Wow, what's going on here? Do I have to read all the threads to get an idea? Or can I have a short summary?
FNB (the site, not the man) is getting somewhat stuck in the mud. I think this is what Uncle means. We must always be independent men, no sacred cows, no icons, etc. We meet here to argue with each other and thrash out new ideas. We should never become a product review forum, or a mutual-ego-support service.
Yeah just clothes, whatever moves you.
