2. We have found the light at the end of the tunnel and it's not a train.
Our long 8 year international nightmare will be gone 20 days from today.

I say YES, it's about time we learn to laugh and enjoy life. I vote yes on a nonpolitical videos forum. :patriot:

4. I don't know much about these things, but would lots of videos slow down the board or
make it more costly to run?

It may draw some bandwidth.

14. I can agree with that
I've posted some silly things in GD because I thought that there might be some people who don't post in the Lounge would enjoy them. I separate forum would be great!

16. I would think a video lounge, non-political smile stuff
Trailers, pets, funny stuff, sports, things people would not normally see because some of us spend all of our free time looking at silly stuff and like to share.

25. I was just thinking about this last night.
D'oh, and now the Admins "know" how we voted.

It would be sooooo much nicer to have the video within your OP, instead of a link to Youtube.

:thumbsup: :woohoo: :applause:
