Yikes! I come back after a long hiatus from the site and this is one of the first threads I see. Man...I'm just...wow. I miss chico already. Since your last visit: Links: 812 Comments: 19395

I'm pretty neutral on the spelling issue and am actually more distracted by the attempts to correct the offenders within the thread. I scan right past a comment that leaves out any punctuation and/or capitalization and move on to those comments less offensive to the eyes and, usually, more relevant to the topic at-hand. Delete the specific comment or ban them outright and I wouldn't care, although, grum's idea seems to be the most even-handed. Then again, at best, I lurk here and don't get the constant day-in, day-out barrage so my opinion probably won't carry that much weight.

"Is there an IMDB for pr0n?"
Good news and great news.
First the good news: IMDB does do pr0n.*
Which brings me to the great news: Chico, your porno alter-ego is apparently still up-for-grabs. It's always good to have foreign language aliases to fall back on when times get rough.
To keep this somewhat on topic; I prefer the analysis of the blogs and smaller news outlets to ESPN, Yahoo, AP, and the big name papers.

Happy belated Father's Day to all the Spofite Pops out there. Picked up this guy for my Dad this year although haven't had a chance to meet up with him yet.

Good one on allowing Brazil or Brasil for international Q#1.

Eggselent. The only thing I noticed is that it doesn't appear to be case-sensitive (which is nice, I guess). Exact spelling is apparently a necessity (very nice). It lets you know the question you incorrectly answered, if any, which, if not deterred by the questions themselves, will most likely keep away those prospective users *cough*STEEELORS ROXORS!!1!1!*cough* too lazy to Google. I think I'll second DJE's approval.

I dashed off a note to the pantheon via the contact form as well due to a very observant tselson comment in one of those threads. I was originally going to post it here but didn't want to stink up the locker room with dirty laundry.
