And of course, I *had* to make a typo in the title. I previewed the post about seven times, but that's probably *why* I missed that - Merphy's Laws, anyone? -Shiri (23 years ago, 5-Jul-01, to lugnet.faq)

Hey guys and gals, In case you haven't heard or noticed yet, there's a new kind of FAQ in town. It's a mean, lean, joking machine - all the while still trying to answer your questions in earnest!

Hi! This is the first weekly FAQ installment. It will consist of two parts every week: 1. A totally new entry to the Commonfolk's FAQ, a humor-oriented Q&A about lugnet. (URL) An already-existing entry from the Acronym FAQ, a list of most (hopefully (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jul-01, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.general, lugnet.people.newbie) !
