We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I haven't looked at the tidy code in yonks.

Bad Buffista!

I'll look into it this evening.

No. Really.

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

Tom, I'm deleting my Pleskian attempt at creating a mailing list. Can you set one up called stompies and make me the owner?

Or, I could migrate the existing lists to Plesk.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That reminds me. I'm the moderator of the Laista list. I have no problem staying the moderator, but if someone else wants the "job", I'd be happy to hand it over as well.

Which would quite probably make you the man ...

"It would be nice - not essential - but nice" type requests are closed at this point I presume? I mean given that there huge amounts of never-going-to-be-paid time going into what is already on the list Or are you still considering suggestions for improvements?

What do you have in mind? Last time I tried to test the temperature of interests, just about the only thing pegging still the meter was font face/size changes.

OK - well this is new, and kind of minor. But how about a tag archive. Since I presume tags are just a field in the database you could initially populate it with a query. And then everytime someone changed their tags, you could capture the new tag and add it to the archive. And then you would have some sort of simple display of all tags. Just a fun thing - cause we have lots of good tags and not all of them make it into Coffee.

But there it is - just a a simply display of all tags from now onwards. Just cause I think there is a lot of great snark, and fun quotes in those tags that deserve to be preserved. So I would find it a nice thing to have. Don't know if anyone else would. And certainly don't know if it is worth the trouble.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

So we'd have all the tags together? Cause that seems weird to me.

I'd rather just have my tag live with the posts that was made while that was my tag.

Well an argument against it. I think it would be kind of cool - like a Buffista Dictionary of Quotations.

Almost by definition a tag works in multiple contexts.
