Just a note to everyone about a moderator in our Quotations Forum. Phaedrus has been helping us in the forum, deleting spam and answering questions.

For some Friday silliness, I thought I’d give you this video by Mr. Bungle called Quote Unquote. Enjoy the disturbing psychedelics while waiting for the weekend!
