    I thought it was one of those guys who slipped away a long time ago, but you'd probably know better than I would. Maybe Tony would remember whether the name was his idea.

    Of course, I don't think the name suggestion came from the same person who first suggested that we needed an off-topic forum.

    PC sure has come a long way since then. You've done an amazing job, Danny. :thumb:

    Fred's House of Pancakes did come about a long time ago. I might take the time to dig through all my old old posts to see if I can find the origin of the name. I wish I could take credit for the name but I'm not sure.

    I do remember that the necessity of an off-topic forum came about when Mystery Squid started a thread about Banana Slugs suffering Priapism and literally chewing their own dingy off. Trust me, once you read that you don't forget it. Anyway, after that, it was decided that we were growing tired of just talking about the Prius and wanted to talk about other things. I remember that gay rights was a hot topic and would spill into the normal forums.

    The bunny's name is not Fred. It's Oolong. Oolong (rabbit) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
