Welcome to the party! Here you can party, sing, dance and drink while the orchestra is playing and the ship sinks. Just like jolly old times...

If the band starts playing "Nearer My God To Thee", will the atheists complain about Christians shoving their religion down our throats?

Well, the Beta dodged the iceberg that was the load test, so.... :p

So who's the unlucky shmuck in the doomed romance that's going to freeze to death in frigid, black depths of the ocean?

I'm posting for old times sake. I'm posting because I luff this place. I'm posting to keep it alive. I'm posting because NSG has less than a full page of threads displayed under the default settings for the first time in my living memory.

But mostly, I'm posting for one very simple reason. +1.

Gentlemen, it has been a pleasure.

You think so (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celine_Dion)?

While her releases have often received mixed critical reception, she is renowned for her technically skilled and powerful vocals.[13][14][15] In 2004, after surpassing 175 million in album sales worldwide, she was presented with the Chopard Diamond Award at the World Music Awards for becoming the best selling female artist of all time.[16][17] In April 2007 Sony BMG announced that Celine Dion had sold over 200 million albums worldwide.
It would appear that millions would disagree with you. :p
