Now, for the rest of us (unequipped to BRAINstorm...)[edit source]
"with intent to start home business, sell real estate and marry a rich Snottsdale resident"? Don't you mean open an art studio and sell Hopi crafts? Isn't that the usual fixation when people go into business over "things I think I would like to do" rather than identifying a market need? Regarding Maricopa, this sounds trite--EVERYWHERE is growing too fast. Spıke ¬ 17:17 30-Dec-09
- Laugh! I LIVE HERE; have pity! Trying to get in the NASA 1969 Television moonwalk footage filmed in Crater Lake? Hmmm...must have been on a shortened (groan) LIST? It's a REWRITE in process, I haven't gotten too far yet. Give me a minute... How were the hoops? 98.165.44.173
Millrats beat the tournament hosts BIG, and under a point system that rewards lopsided victories, got the trophy for the 3-day tournament. I wore the jersey of Millrat #00 who, two years ago, was in a fight that lost a game via forfeit. That was an ice-breaker! Barely avoided being asked to run the shot clock. Didn't get home until 24:30 and didn't finish paperwork until 26:30, so I may be up "late" tonight too. PS--My current project is a replacement article for a Save of an article on Votes For Deletion: User:SPIKE/Angry Asian kid. Spıke ¬ 20:57 30-Dec-09
PPS--It's still early, but so far you are merely replacing someone else's favorite turns-of-phrases with your own favorites, rather than taking a top-down look and transforming this article away from being a breezy collection of lists of one-liners. Spıke ¬ 21:10 30-Dec-09
- Dog Breath! I didn't know you were so list obsessed? User:LisaKachold/Arizona is not going to destruct before New Years, I am still slicing out the head cheese, my deli friend. Strange phantom edits keep drifting in/out from the WikiMatrix. My new phrases are now grammatically correct, intelligent in context, and read like a satire of the Wikipedia:Arizona, rather than the backpage of a homegrown high school comix? A GREAT DEAL of new content has been introduced; including humor, (I am told)? Plus, there's <my favorite> Motivational Posters too! Millrats....Wait, is everything in NH, even Basketball, held on ICE? "What icebreaker, scratching blond head..." L00k at Arizona NOW? L!$@

The ice-breaker was arriving at the Aud in Barre, Vermont in the game-worn uniform of a notorious brawler of the opponents. Not everything here is on ice. Just surface transportation. Spıke ¬ 00:29 31-Dec-09
- Thanks for fixing the sports! I will review and spruce up tomorrow --> move in. Thanks again for all the fun! L!$@ (Meow!)(Contribs) 02:08, 31 December 2009
The fun is just starting. There's another query to you on the Arizona talk page. By the way, Celtics are now playing in Phoenix, and are getting manhandled. Spıke ¬ 02:35 31-Dec-09
