Buffistas

Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

it's associated with torrenting, then?

Pretty sure -- it's the only sort of sharing I do. If it's about what I was sharing at the time they cut me off, Stargate was the culprit. Since I've already grabbed Spooks, I'm not heartbroken, but I am miffed.

Quark can't really modify pictures/graphics. You still need photoshop and Illustrator.

Huh. I was just about to grab SG 814.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That's what I though, but my boss seemed to think this would be cheaper because of not needing photoshop and illustrator?!?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Auctions on eBay for used cards without warranties have been closing around $150 in recent weeks for a product that originally cost $100 when new.

Prices are lower at the moment - there's a lot of new cards for $78 buy-it-now. Which I suppose I'll do.

It is annoying, though. My iBook is only 16 months old - I'd think they'd support that technology a little longer. (OK, the iBook has an Airport card, but not my Cube.)

I asked the folks at a local independent Mac store if they'd consider doing some repairs on my Portable. They were all amazed that I owned such a thing. I think they're excited about the possibility of working on it....

Your boss is on crack, Sophia.

move out and draw fire

Cute computer...but I'm still torn between adoring Apple's designs and case-modding my own PC. (Why yes, I am actually an 11-year-old-boy). And all I really want is Internet anyway.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I *think* the most recent release of Quark CAN modify pictures/graphics within Quark. (I'm not 100% sure b/c we're still using 4.1, mostly b/c our 3 Macs aren't running the same OS, and 6.0 needs OS X.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Raq: why not do both?

Yeah, that way you get two internets....
