Hall of Fame
Our beloved cellar is inhabited by a wide range of people, with an equally wide range of writing talent, style, humor, insight, passion and creativity. Many of the comments I've read were so funny or so insightful that I have enjoyed reading them again and again. But conversations here in the cellar pay no heed to my desires and the post that was precious yesterday will be lost in the cacophany of posts a week later.
This thread is intended to preserve those posts in one place, a Hall of Fame for posts so funny, insightful, or incendiary that they deserve to be remembered. Posts so passionate, so right, or so, so wrong that you want to hang it on the wall like a trophy. Post the remarks and include a link to the post for a frame of reference in case the context matters. This is the place, our own Hall of Fame. |
As promised, one of our charter members in the Hall of Fame, from the talented fingers of lookout123 comes this prize:

I thought the same thing about a hall of fame area. I've been looking through some of the older posts, and many of them have made me laugh out loud!
The (original) peeing in the shower thread for sure. |
In reply to the thread starting question: What draws you back to the cellar?

Hobbs' problem is that the Comm Nazis have finally blocked access to the cellar from his work machine. At Luke AFB. Beestie helpfully suggests his solution and Hobbs justifiably expresses his fears. :lol2:

It wasn't intended to hurt, LJ. I'm not that kind of guy. Plus I think you're alright and I wouldn't want to hurt your feelings.
Besides, I think the HOF is for funny or memorable posts. Not necessarily the ones that draw the most blood. |

It was suggested that this thread be moved to Cellar Comments and Suggestions.
Also, Cellar Comments and Suggestions is hereby renamed to Cellar Meta since it has always covered more than just comments and suggestions. |
2ndeded. Furthermore, I hereby nominate BigV to the HoF just for coming up with the idea of a cool way to preserve the classic content that shows up in here.

Griff brought to my attention this speech made by Dwight D Eisenhower, his Farewell Speech. I can only give credit to Griff, since I can't find Ike's member profile. But Ike's wise words deserve preservation. No, memorization. Read the thread for yourself. You'll agree.

How did the Republican Party go from "preserving assets for the future" to "grab as much as you can while you can" in 50 years?

Although he's no longer with us, IMO any Hall of Fame should include a mention of richh.

From the "why are there immigration laws" thread come these posts:
Originally posted by Beestie You are both correct. Sort of. Immigration laws pacify the isolationists. The utter lack of enforcement pacifies big business. The paradox pacifies the intellectuals. The highly publicized spot enforcement pacifies the rest. Quote:

Funny you say that... authoritarians see me as forcing them to allow others to do what they wish.

This post is another jewel in Beestie's crown. I quote here in it's entirety, but you should click on over and enjoy the flamewar, as asymetrical as it is, "just for fun". :lol2:
