Once the election is over, it's over. Even if it isn't, it will be soon. In the interest of national unity, universal siblinghood, and restoring the peace, I hearby resolve the following:
To refrain from inflammatory statements about the election process or results until the new president has been in office for at least four weeks.
To apologize to anyone I may have insulted, either directly or with blanket statements, and ask their forgiveness.
To forgive anyone who has insulted me, and to gracefully accept any apology tendered.
To refrain from crowing over my candidate's win, or complaining loudly that "We wuz robbed!"
To remember that anyone who didn't vote for my candidate is not an enemy who seeks to destroy all that is good.
To do whatever is in my power to ensure the next election is conducted in a fair and equitable manner -- by pressuring party officials, legislators, state governor, or whomever else may have power or influence over how the next election will be conducted.
To remember that, no matter who is elected, my neighbor is still my neighbor and deserves to be treated with respect, compassion, fairness, and understanding, no matter who he voted for.

Baloo- in all his glorious wisdom- is entirely correct. I understand and accept this pledge as well. However, it means I will have to find something else in which to pick on Jeff Kardde for. Maybe his story that he's been bugging me to read...

Hello, I remember you from when I began posting here again, and the one who posted about the dry ice drink from whenever. BTW, it still tastes a tad dry.

MsChris: A female? That makes what? Three? Four? I always enjoy welcoming members of my favorite gender to Flare. I suppose you're probably a bit young for me, but what the heck. I'll fantasize about your mother.
[*Ducks.*] Hey! I was just kidding! Stop with the hitting!
Sol: Thanks! Can you give me a link to a more extensive list of UBB codes? My UBB skills seem to have rusted somewhat.
DEAvendetta: Yep! Haven't made any new ones lately, but I'm glad you remember. So where do I know you from anyway?
TSN: Calm down, can'tcha? I ain't just any bear. Relax. I have a pizza in the oven, so why would I want to eat you? Besizes, I'll bet you'd taste terrible even if I dumped a whole crate of parmesan on you.
Besides, you'd never fit in my oven.

Er, TLE? You're supposed to pour something to drink over the dry ice first.
