I'm not sure where the nail polish box gets discussed, so I'll put this here.

If the person who has, or is about the have the box is interested, I have three bottles to add:

Loreal, wear extraordinair, lush velvet (deep purple/brown)

Revlon, cherry burst (bright red)

Sally Hansen, Xtreme wear, gunmetal (just as you'd expect...gunmetal grey)

eta: I also have an Avon Pro lipstick in Vibrant Nude which is kind of cool in that there is a fliptop on the lid that contains a shiny/glittery cover shade...and a wee mirror!

Or, if anyone else would like them, I will mail them posthaste.

My profile addy is good.

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

A post from the more frivolous side:

I'm still too far behind in Supernatural to make a timely post, but for Supernaturalistas, Qwertee is relevant to your interests today (and tomorrow):

A friend of mine is looking for someone with Kickstarter experience to help him create a campaign for a documentary being made about himself.

He's a thoroughly inspirational guy and very organized in his thinking. When he says he is going to do something, it gets done, so he's looking for a similarly motivated adviser.

The documentary is called "Blind Lifter."

He's been a Congressional staffer, and worked in disability non-profits for years. He has a particular interest in helping people with disabilities, and the world in general, to see disabilities differently.

You can see a news clip of him and more about the doc on his website.

The one issue is that he has a tight turnaround and would love to talk with someone this week about getting started.

Please either email me at my profile addy, or contact him directly through the site.

This is a paid opportunity, though I do not know the terms or conditions.

What is even happening?

Joss is now on Twitter. His account hasn't been officially verified, but Maurissa Tancharoen (his s-i-l) has confirmed it.

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

For a few reasons (cost, support, obsolescence) we've been discussing moving b.org servers in BBABB++. We're currently running on PHP 4.3.9, and the world is up to 5.5 (in layperson's terms, we're over ten years behind) so if we're going to a new host, we'll at least have to cross a major release Rubicon (4->5) which will require code changes and therefore testing.

What is this post?

CALL FOR SUBJECTSVOLUNTEERS: I have the code ported to a 5.2 system, and I've tweaked basics, but really haven't had a reasonable kick at the tyres. That's where you, the subject matter experts, come in. I'm looking for five people to come and run amok and break things willy nilly.

I'd love to have a volunteer from among the admins too.

This isn't a huge commitment of time. If you can spend a total of a few hours spanning across a few days, I'd be very grateful. All you need to do is everything you can think of.

Pipe up in BBABB++ if you're interested in helping.

Thanks!
