Sheesh.
I just wanted to find ANY thread about PRESENT TENSE ... i know i've seen atleast 3 in recent memory that specificaly have "PRESENT TENSE" in the thread title ... none to be found on the porch according to the search though.

damnit.

I JUST NEED TO SAY:

PRESENT TENSE -- CHARLOTTE 2000 ...

IS THERE A BETTER VERSION OF THIS SONG?

yeah i don't think so.
omfg, it's orgasmic.
If I was to smile and I held out my hand
If I opened it now would you not understand?

    that is why you should use the "advanced search" button.

    it's a keyboard interface problem...I just did a search of the Porch for present tense and got 92 threads.

    hint, use advance search, no date, and the porch forum, I never have a problem with search, though they do clean up the database here every once in a while so threads do get deleted.

    give it a try, don't be afraid to learn something new

    IMO the most annoying thing about this board isnt people who dont use the search button. Its the people who like to kiss the Mods ass and constantly tell people to use the search button. Who cares if we have some similar threads, its not something we have to freak out about, and telling them to use the search button only bumps the duplicate post.

    The best is waiting in anticipation for someone to yell at a poster about using the search function!

    There once was a thread dedicated to this amazin song, we even got our numbers (see my sig)... And it kinda became a chatroom, that's why they closed it. We appreciated the song, but we also talked about the stuff that was going on in the present tense (what happened that day,...stuff like that), so it was a chat room, afterall. But we really loved and we still do the PResent Tense, that's why we got this "new" thread on AET forum, which we kinda left out (prolly because of the Canadian tour or whatever, but hey, that's no exuse ;) This trully is an AMAZING song, and there's no reason we should's talk about it, so here's some OOOOOHHHH for the old PT thread sake :) hehe

    Note: You can see by my posts I've been away for A WEEK :eek: and I have to catch up, so I've been reading and postin like crazy tonight, and I'll stop now...two hours on the PJ forum, enough for today...need to get some sleep! :)
