N was great. But I thought that this was a 2009 Awards, and hence prior years could not be counted otherwise Cuchulainn makes some great posts (out of the ones I understand that is), and Daveangle and Martinghol did some great stuff last year when the world was going to shit. But this was a 2009 awards and hence did not feel I should nominate.

Swiss Voters Accept Ban on Minarets
Published (2009-12-01 21:44:00)
Quote Originally posted by: Fermion I couldn't give two hoots for minarets or bells. But I would love to ban the abuse of children by religious indoctrination.

I am the one, i guess, who is having a...

Hence as the population increases the epoch changing events happen more often. I like this thought, however very difficult to prove as it is ...

I was wondering the other day how complicit mrs dash was in this scandal: was she merely an innocent stooge who was duped into coming on here and wailing like a banshee, or was she (like the rest of us) aware from the get-go that this was a scam, but a scam that suited her duplicitous agenda

her last name in English means a teacher. my guess is that there was no affair, but there was a wife beating. meaning that wife beat the hell out of Tiger with his woods.
