It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'll get on it.

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

Can you do that? From work, I mean?

I mean, are you at work?

I'm off today, so it's no problem. Actually, it hasn't been a problem since I discovered that css.b.net wasn't blocked from work. It was going through a proxy to get to b.org that was causing the hilarity to ensue.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I love it when hilarity ensues.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Oh, phew. Jon was on the case!

Lee texted me, but I couldn't really do thread creation from the iPhone, even if the network had been working. Which it wasn't.

All is well that ends in pizza.

When I use the buffistas.org web affiliate link to amazon.com, it loses the affiliate link. I still keep it when I go to amazon.uk or amazon.ca.

Are we no longer affiliated?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

If I'm asking in the wrong thread, plz excuse and point me to the right one. I'm looking for the early Firefly threads. They don't seem to be in "closed film and tv threads". Clues? Anyone?

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

Beverly, check Archives from the right panel of the front page.

Jesse, how much detail do you get in affiliate reports? Just one number?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Question: Is it uncouth to ask a stompy to label a link in a post if the original poster seems to have stepped away and can't relabel it themselves?
