In view of the recent event of the DFB, I have some thoughts and will like to share with you and see what you think.
The first time me and Pak thought up DSB, we want to have a lot of fun while talking to brothers in plastic. The reason we choose to be pigs, is because we think pigs are very humble animals, we keep to ourselves, and we know how to have funs, roll in the hay, or whatever.
The DFB is obviously a side show, and I say they paid us a huge compliment by imitating us, even down to the name of the organization. For this, we shall all feel really proud.
I for one, think all the pork jokes are fine, yes, they are a bit too much and repetitive. Nevertheless, as the number 2 pig, I will like all the piggies to refine your comment in attacking their comments to minimum in the open forum other than here (although it's obvious that they had started it )for the following reason:
1. Jim is kind enough to give us a formal status in this site, we will put him in a difficult spot if this goes too far.
2. They have nothing to loss, there are only 3 of them + 1 turned pig, and we have 39 and counting, and we have our own forum, if we went to far and loss this place, then no one will be happy except maybe the wolves.
SO all things said, please refine your comments in the open forum, and if we ignore them, this will pass. Trust me, sometimes I am as pissed off as you are, but we have much bigger things to worry about.

Stug, I think you behaved admirably, sometimes we need to you know sacrifice valor for diplomacy, and peace, this is the case I guess.... For all the things you did for the sty, you have every right to feel upset.
Thank you for your understanding.

As everyone knows,I have a crack in my psychi the size of the grand canyon. Seeing how my morals and fragile sense of self have taken a plunge into said abyss,I make the following assertions;
(1) Pancake batter is a good substitute for ink blot tests.
(2)My house never has,or will,have enough light bulbs.
(3)Never cook bacon naked.
(4)Apologies that I may have to make,would only result in me having to make more later so, I will apologize on my death bed with a general "Fazalute"
(5)Boots can feel almost confortable with about 4 spoons of pudding placed inside before inserting your foot.
As for this so-called fun. Your names have been recorded and a report shall be given to the Further and His Most Second. You shall all be considered......What you shall be considered....I have NO idea!

I agree with the general concesus. It's like in hte army. Platoon fight against platoon. Company vs company. But we're modellers, be it armour or (gasp) planes(sorry penny i had to) , a heart. Let's keep the ribbing in good humour guys. If someone actually takes anything we say seriously its time to get out and get a life. Our Pig Constitution was based on HUMOUR!!!!!
That's all for my rant. Cheers.
