It is funny though, I was just reading the chapter assignements in the Silmarillion project, and I just noticed that our esteemed moderators in that area had not made any intros in any chapter. Now that is odd.
This april's fool day was really ingenious, if they even upset an admin. Jeje.

“What does the term american refers to” asked the boy, and the wise man answered: “Lets look at the dictionary then.”
As an adjective American is:
1. Of or relating to the United States of America or its people, language, or culture.
2. Of or relating to North or South America, the West Indies, or the Western Hemisphere.
As a noun American is:
A native or inhabitant of America.
A citizen of the United States.

Then the boy asked, “What is America then?”, and the wise man looked at the dictionary again:
1. The United States.
2. also the A·mer·i·cas. The landmasses and islands of North America, Central America, and South America.

Confused, the boy asked, “Does the term american refers solely to a us citizen or to any person in North, Central or South America?”
The wise man replied: “What do you think?”, and the boy answered: “It is clear to me that while the term american is used to refers to us citizens, one can also use it to refer to any person who is from that continent too,” the boy thought for a while and asked the wise man, “Am I right?”, and he replied: “But of course.”
The boy wondered, why is it that some people refuse to acknowledge the fact that the term american refers not only to US citizens but to anyone of the American continent?, but then sadly, the boy understood, that it is the calamity of ignorance.

Okay, see, this is the kind of thing that really gets me, because you are way off topic, which is figuring this whole mess out, and normally, Sister Golden Hair would say something, but now she has no power, so no one respects her. JD, get the hell back on topic, man, because this is not about the United States (God Bless), it is about the election, so leave it alone.

I doubt if they had much choice if they were born there....

I'm not talking about the US - I'm talking about New JERSEY.

BC - who said anything about them being born there.

Cut him a little slack, Beor. He can't help it if he's the only employee of the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce and Cheerleading Society. It's a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it!



And BTW, JD, I'm not sure anyone would choose to live there without some compelling reason, like family ties or not knowing there are 49 other states in the Union...

I don't agree, surely all the people rushing to our new president's aid shows she is respected.

I hate Entmoot April Fool's jokes, because they always end in some stupid drama.

Power vacuum? Who has the power now the president elect has none... I mean people can moan all they like, but ultimately someone somewhere has to has the access to click a little button.

I liked my idea of making an avatar of the Entmoot Guy picking his nose and all of us using it, but there wasn't enough time ...

Avatar-making guys, do you wanna give it a go?

Good one, Gaffer!
