Google translation of *D_N*'s posts:

Hello to all friends MOM, my name is Stuart, I have 48 years, my user in the game is * D _N * and want to thank you for inviting me to be part of the MOM group. I am writing this note to confirm my participation. I'm still learning but I hope to put my best effort.

Thanks again and see you soon.

Stuart.

By the way, I forgot to tell you that any instruction or communication can send it to me by private message.

Thank you.

And Senor Bopesito's reply:

Welcome to Stuart MOM! Another legendary player DogFight joins our ranks! I do not speak Spanish, but Felabad, Nazis, Sputnik and others in MOM do, so please talk to them too. Once again, welcome!.

Nostalgia Bubble Bursting Sidebar:

I was a slave to the 60's Batman TV series, too. Twice a week the neighborhood would be teeming with kids and then, ten minutes before showtime, you could shoot off a cannon and not hit one. Like a ghost subdivision. Every kid inside the house, glued to the set.

Flash forward 30 years: Burt Ward (Robin) has just published his tell-all book about what a sex & booze bacchanal that show had been, how he'd lost his virginity when Adam West kicked open his dressing room door and threw a hooker at him, how from that point on it was nothing but a running orgy between shots (keep in mind, he was barely of age at the time) ... so I'm interviewing him live on the air and all he wants to talk about is the lurid sexual stuff in his book. I keep trying to reel him back in, get him to talk about the show, the guest stars, the batmobile, ANYTHING...but he's relentless. It's hilarious, actually, how hard I'm obviously working to change the subject and how little success my efforts are yielding...and how drunk the Boy Wonder is. We go to commercial break, and he begins screaming at my producer, reading him the riot act because I...not he, but I...had been trying to make his book sound, "...like it's about nothing but sex!!!" Which it was, and which was all he was willing to discuss on the air! He refused to continue the interview after the break, swore he'd see me in court then hung up in the producer's ear.

Holy Scumbag, Batman!

I'm on the radio, B, or was at the time. Howard Stern was on-air in my home market, Detroit, too, back before he became a big deal and before I moved to New York.

That would be brilliant, Coop. I've had nothing but good times whenever I've interacted with TheVampire, he seems like a gentleman and lives in CT not too far from me here in NYC. I don't know him well enough to call him a friend just yet but he seems like good folks. He and Rickenfaker are my two grail-quest additions to the squadron.

Yes, I think with the addition of those two, our squadron would be even more "rounded off" than it is now. ;) seeing as we already have some of the best pilots on Dogfight.

If there is a MOM website Sput's going to have to come over here and explain what's on it every so often to keep me and the other doddering, B&W TV-raised types up to date (like I used to have to explain the old Batman show to my grandma who seemed unable to grasp any shows other than Lawrence Welk and Merv Griffin.)

Well, I know I'm gonna live to regret admitting this, but... I do design web sites. It seems to me that somewhere in here there's a free DIY and hosting option within the Dogfight webiverse but I could be wrong. The sites I build are entirely from scratch; custom layout, graphics, page structure...but a template based gizmo that allows for customization would simplify the process. I'll look into it. I'll want photos and personal mini-bios from every single member; age, location, family, what you do and have done, hobbies, criminal records, etc. If anyone fails to kick in I'll make stuff up. You will not be happy, believe me.

SheiBe and I, and a few other MOMs, have also decided to propose that we spin off the Prodigy unit into its own separate sub-squad with its own thread, site, the works. They will still be "a wholly owned subsidiary of M.O.M Inc." subject to all the same rules, standards, recruitment policies...our board of admissions will still vote new members in or out. Sput and his crew will have the same full access and membership to the main squad's stuff but we feel they deserve their own identity. This is how empires are built, one Sputnik at a time.

Input, feedback, unbridled rage? Bring the pain.

Remarkable to see MOM fractally expand outward from a central point currently occupied by a void: squad wars. :)

Seems legit! Most Internet IPOs are similarly valued on nothingness with expectations of somethingness.

By the time squad wars actually happens (if it ever does) I expect MOM to be a giant monolithic multinational conglomerate. Where do we get our preferred shares? :)

Hi, I seem to have ended up in the squad, thought I was pressing a button to ask if I could join, next thing I know I'm flying around with M.O.M over my tag. So I hope that's ok. Don't think I've quite figured out how to navigate this forum either so if I screw it up, well just shoot me down, any help would be greatly appreciated though. Thanks guys (and girls).
