For November, 2005 (as per previous months):
quote:
Please post your votes for the November, 2005, Posts of the Month here. Include author, forum name, thread name, post number, eg:
Name: Velvet Tongue
Forum: Biological Evolution
Thread: I'm no monkey
Post #: 17
A link to the message, and perhap a SHORT comment would also be nice. But, this is NOT a place to debate the referenced topic - so be nice.
I think that a fairly liberal use of this topic would be a good thing for indexing some nice messages that are otherwise doomed to be lost in the clutter. So, if you encounter a message that seems to say something of special substance, please give it a plug/reference in this topic.
New month, same old message and routine.

Why are so many environmentalists and lovers of all creatures secularists? Where are the voices of the faithful? Why is there no chorus rising from the churches to stop the destruction of this gorgeous world?
This is in a "please, no reply to messages" themed topic, so don't debate the matter either there or in this POTM topic.
But I would love to see that message in a "to be dabated" place.

Thank you, Moose--that one came straight from the heart and is genuinely a great puzzle to me.
I'd be happy to re-post it as a PNT, if you like, and I'm open to changes to suit that context.

I think if there was an avatar of the month category you would be the first to win.

Nah, I saw his avatar somewhere else.

The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in?
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul.
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both grow old.
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I hope so.

Post:#7
A thoroughly witty and enjoyable discourse about Parasomnium the zygote.
Then came the day of my first stage appearance,
which I'm often told was very untraditional,
'cause though most babies' first cries lack coherence,
mine were: "Good afternoon, I'm a transitional."
