The Chairman and Chairwoman have decided to participate in the Walk For Hunger this year.

If you're intested in supporting us, feel free to make donations either: HERE or HERE. Now, I'm not going to suggest that donating money to the Chairman's causes will increase your chances of winning, but it's certainly something worth thinking about ( Read more... )

The Attorney General has been filling the headlines a lot lately. What are the IRON POETS thoughts on this man? Should he resign? Should he be fired? Will either of these things occur?

The Chairman has been toying with the idea of building his own arcade system. (How else will I play Gauntlet with my buddies?)

What are the IRON POETS thoughts on arcade games? Any special memories of Pac Man or Double Dragon? What about the modern arcade games like Dance Dance Revolution, and Final Mortal Street Fighters of High Caliber to the ( Read more... )

The Chairman recently acquired a "burrito bin", which is nothing more than a bin used to store frozen burritos. But it reminds the Chairman of just how much he enjoys the food.
