Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I think I used that theme for about 30 seconds once, back in the day.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I used to change other people's desktop themes to hotdog. I assumed that's what it was for.

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 think I used that theme for about 30 seconds once, back in the day.

I know I looked at it. I may have used it for 30 seconds (or less), or maybe I selected another theme as fast as I could....

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I liked Mushroom's comment about the colour scheme. Bluey, my old boss at the porn shop, is colour blind and based on the colour schemes he came up with for things like the gift certificates we had, he would probably find Hotdog Stand to be perfectly acceptable. Thank Bob he is computer illiterate and never figured out how to change the colour sceme on the work computer.

Hey, peeps. I'm trying to figure out if there is a Dublin Core application profile for hardware/software documentation. Also, we're using DocBook and don't want to customize. Would adding DC be considered a customization? How would you add it?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Yeah, I saw those today, and it is incomparably valuable if only for the hack of how to get the damn script-running dialog box from never showing up again.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I'm still waiting for my favorite theme to be updated so I can use it. I did run across a way to have FF 2.0 ignore compatibility for add-ons, but I lost the link.
