I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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

I wonder if we'll be seeing some Disney movies in the iTunes store....

Our wings are not tired

I'd say we will. Iger has made it one of his personal missions to patch up the rift Eisner caused between Apple and Disney.

move out and draw fire

Does anybody have any recommendations for a netmeeting-type thing? I'd rather it be a hosted website, like here or WX, but a downloadable program is acceptible (if it's cheap!).

What I'm looking for is something where multiple people have have a real-time conversation via typing, with user icons and application sharing.

I don't even really know what search terms to use for this.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

What about netmeeting by Microsoft? It's free.

I don't know if it works on XP though. Which would be weird.

I've been using netmeeting for this, and it's okay, but does have some problems and limitations with XP, mostly having to do with stable connections. And it doesn't allow user icons or any other way to differentiate users in the chat window (other than name), which is a feature that several of my users really want.

I'd say rift definitely patched.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Note to self: If Steve Jobs is pissed at me, give him 4 billion dollars.

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

Note to self: Get pissed at Tom.

No, wait, impossible. Pretend to get pissed and bargain for half price.
