feeds@yuku.com (LT Boy) — Fri, 09 May 2008 18:45:36 GMT

What's up with Yucko

feeds@yuku.com (BBQer) — Wed, 07 May 2008 05:15:14 GMT

I subscribe to a off site spam filtering service, I run anti spyware programs religiously, I update my virus definitions often and now I am subject to ads embeded in the message body on this board. WTF!!!!!

Sidecar help

feeds@yuku.com (Music Man) — Tue, 06 May 2008 20:01:15 GMT

Report on Frosty Nutz

feeds@yuku.com (Pallysquirt) — Tue, 06 May 2008 06:57:16 GMT

In spite of the persistent rain and drizzel,
In spite of the bone-rattling chill,
In spite of the raucous behavior of some who were in their cups,
In spite of the incessant chatter of He who identifies himself as an officer, a gentleman biker, an attorney and one who is licensed to carry, and
In spite of the fact that my Cheezits got a wee bit soggy,
Because there were so many good persons in attendance with whom one could hold enlightening and humorous conversations,...
