Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Disaffected college student

This is all reminding me of how much I enjoyed my Perl class. I only wish I had some practical application for it at the moment. (For the fun, plus the possibility of a paycheck.)

Robert, if you're interested in Perl, you should check out Perlmonks, [link] -- lots of good stuff and helpful people. It's like here, only with less Buffy.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I fixed the punctuation problem on the voting page. The validation now occurs before appending the user name to the email.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

msbelle would like me to let y'all know that she hasn't been able to get on the board for a couple of hours, trying Mozilla and IE -- it times out. Me, I'm having no problems.

Apparently Deb Grabien and meara are having issues too.

she hasn't been able to get on the board for a couple of hours, trying Mozilla and IE -- it times out.

Me too, on netscape 4.7 (on Unix) - I also got a 'timed out' page.

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

I had problems, too, as did Heather and meara.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

HostRocket has been doing maintenance, which is probably what the downtime a few minutes ago was about. It's supposed to last until 7 EST, I think.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

On the user name thing, I wondered about that when we first started, but since we didn't use user names for anything, and because I really wanted to have both my space and my full stop in my id, I didn't bring it up. Bad me. It's a shame, because it's nice to be able to have nifty names, but regexps really are picky about that sort of thing.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

Is the reason we're not using user numbers just that poor Jengod can read names more easily?
