    so if you haven't logged into funfile recently you should really check it out. the drama seems to have climaxed over the past couple days. i checked it out tonight and of course ya get barraged with staff PM's but this one struck me as interesting::




    he brings up an interesting point regarding the donations... which i have always wondered about myself...

    is this the end for funfile ? the whole staff seems to have quit . . ..

    There's tons of other trackers out there. From a content standpoint you can find everything funfile has at just about any other general tracker.
    See ya in another life, brother.

    This expression may have come from the mid-19th Century in America during the building of the transcontinental railroad. As the line built from the west to the east, a number of Chinese laborers were employed to assist in building the line through the mountains of the west. In order to do this large amounts of rock had to be dynamited. The Chinese laborers were placed in a wicker chair and suspended over a cliff by a rope. The laborer would bore into the rock and insert the dynamite charges then light the fuse and yell to be pulled back to the top. Dependent on how strong and fast the man on top was at pulling the rope determined if the laborer made it with his life. If not, the laborer was blown to bits. And the term "going or he went to hell in a handbasket" was born.

    Hahah - interesting little history there JROQuinn.

    BTW, who gives a shit about FunFile?

    I'd think even a complete idiot would understand it's total worthlessness.
