Danno should never have been banned. Tell us why white people don't like to hang out near black people and include a number of links to FBI datasets in your response.

Steven, *Len*, Duncan, Nagi, natty, the one and only Eric, Smoke. It seems the list is endless. Oh, and almaty, dear old brother Dean. And Darnell. And Mrs. Cat. 

 

*Len*... Is that Eric from "in your pants" Eric? Also, I always enjoyed reading Rebecca Jo...

I might have missed part of the story. 

 

VJ is only a small slice of someone's life, that they choose to share. Read through our own filter. Sometimes far, far, from  the real individual, I'm afraid...

*Len*  was a female. I think her last username was Chicayeye, not sure if I spelled it correctly. Steven was Jabbereocky, Mr. Fancypants and a few others Eric was a legend.

  Is it just me, or was NB a better speller back then?

Well, I do keep reading around here that age does awful things to people's mental abilities.

   I know some of my spelling mistakes are more eye related, especially on the cell phone. Getting the wrong words in general (for me) is more of a mental thing. I don't really mind the mistakes now though. I forget it all by the end of the day anyway.
