Mine used to, now it doesn't. Ditto for Slate and Salon, but LJs and Google still show up with their icons.
This money, it is too much. You should have some small refund.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I like "Death in the afternoon" and "All characters come with expiration dates. "
Am vaguely uncomfortable with "Joss was a gateway drug", although Joss himself would probably laugh at it if he saw it.
As for the site icons, my favorite is prolly the SuperShrift sign attached to all the shriftweb.org sites. Never fails to crack me up.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Well disposed to most all of them, but not happy about the "Joss was just a gateway drug" because of the implied dissing. Which is maybe stick-up-the-assish of me, but I wouldn't want the bloke to feel dissed, and it's conceivable that he might.
Particularly fond of:

'cause I like the wordplay.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti
How do you get it to do that?
If you delete your bookmark, restart your computer, and add the bookmark again (and maybe restart the computer again), the B will come back. But the next time Internet Explorer crashes, it might go away again.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Bit of a landslide on the vote. Maybe somebody should make an announcement in thread to warn anybody there that wants to remain virgin pure.

How about a copy of the Press annoucement in thread and a link to the Press post in the Thread slug (or whatever the heck it is called).

The current spoiler policy is stated thusly in the FAQ:
Current FAQ spoiler wording:
Q. What do you guys consider a spoiler?
A. Anything that hasn't been broadcast. So anything from the show and the preview trailers is okay, anything from TV Guide or anywhere else is a spoiler, including casting spoilers, episode titles and plot twists. No white fonting. Spoilers should only be posted in the spoiler thread.
First, I'd like to recommend that we refer to our policy as "Summer Casting Rules" (for simplicity's sake), and once the 4 week safe-period has passed, we change to thread discriptions/slugs, to add onto the regular text (at the end of it) something like:Summer Casting Rules are in effect as of XX/XX. Read the FAQ, to find out more.
Then we can link the to the spoiler section of the FAQ.
I think we should keep the current FAQ spoiler entry as is, because it is straight-foward, and applicable at least from October to June. To cover the summer rules, we can add on Q&As about Summer Casting Rules. I'm throwing out the following as a possible addition to reflect the most recent ballot results:
---
Q. Are all casting news items considered spoilers?
A. Most. When in doubt, treat them as spoilers (see previous Q&A). Certain main cast information is allowed during the Northern Hemisphere's summer off-season, under our Summer Casting Rules.
Major casting changes, to the Main Cast Only, announced by the network or studio, may be discussed, within their respective show threads only (e.g. post Angel news in the Angel thread, not in Bitches, not the other NAFDA threads), 4 weeks after the announcements, or 4 weeks after the previous season finale, whichever comes later. This allows those posters who wish to remain free from all casting news, to safely use the show threads for post-season discussion.
This casting news definition includes cast additions or departures that occur over summer hiatus only (not midseason) . Plot points related to the character's arrival or departure are to be treated as spoilers. The Main Cast are those characters appearing in the opening credits. Summertime discussion of news regarding recurring and guest roles is not allowed in the main show threads, and must be contained to a spoiler or spoilers-lite thread.
Q. What if I can't determine if news is allowable under Summer Casting Rules.
A. Don't post it. Ask in the applicable spoiler or spoilers-lite thread. One of our experienced Buffista Spoiler Companions will be glad to help you figure it out. Chances are, if it's legal information, one of them will have already posted it in the applicable show thread, anyhow.
(Is it too long? Does it cover everything we discussed?)

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
That looks good to me, Cindy. I'll add it to the FAQ once more folks have seen it and commented.
