aww. from a board way back, congrats, Roger More! :) -- nm - kare Feb 18, 15:18
Please help. We're looking for web-based chat clients. Mibbit is one. We need more. Particularly useful would be stuff we could install locally. Thank -- nm - Mop Feb 18, 15:09 4
- Meebo and Digsby. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 15:12 3
  - Wait, that's probably not what you want. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 15:12 2
    - No, I haven't found anything else like Mibbit. Which looks pretty cool. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 15:17 1
      - Yeah, it's looking pretty unique right now. -- nm - Mop Feb 18, 15:18
Jess is cooking dinner for me! Hoow cool is that? Apple and onion pork chops with a small red potato something on the side. -- nm - CQ Feb 18, 15:02 19
- appreciative dudes are the hottest. -- nm - kare Feb 18, 15:13 1
  - oh, let me tell you all the things I'd appreciate -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:16
- If you're not cooking, then what on earth will you do? :-) -- nm - con_carne Feb 18, 15:05 16
  - oversee her cooking to make sure she's doing it right. And make sure she brings you a beer. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 15:14 14
    - that's it! i'm outta the harem! -- nm - kare Feb 18, 15:15 11
      - oh Kare, you would leave the vaunted Alpha position? You get to rule the women and I leave you alone! - Remlik Feb 18, 15:17 10
        
        me and my girls demand respect! throw your hands up at me, girls! -- nm - kare Feb 18, 15:25 1
        
        a revolt! dangit! -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 15:26
        
        Alpha females do get to rule the other women, but they don't get left alone by the Alpha male. Haven't you seen any nature shows on wolves? -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:21 7
        
        I prefer quiet in my castle. If that mean Woman #1 gets left alone so the others are quiet then that's a baragin I'm willing to make! -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 15:24 2
        
        dude, you just put woman and quiet in the same sentence -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:25 1
        
        well in your house I can hear how that's a problem. - Remlik Feb 18, 15:26
        
        Kare is an Alpha female in a different society. - the liioulu with hearts Feb 18, 15:23 3
        
        even so, the Alpha female demonstrates her superiority by fetching beer from the fridge -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:24 2
        
        and hitting the male over the head with it. -- nm - kare Feb 18, 15:25 1
        
        ok that's a good point. *damnit* -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 15:26
    - and she needs to give him a foot massage as well. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:14 1
      - *nods* -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 15:17
  - I'm watching Cash Cab and drinking a beer -- nm - CQ Feb 18, 15:08
So, now that we've fixed the date and location for the wedding, I told some coworkers about it at lunch. - Beryllium Feb 18, 15:02 18
- Don't believe it, people! He's throwing us off the trail to avoid any of us crashing his wedding! -- nm - Mop Feb 18, 15:26
- so are you going to invite st? -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:09 13
  - I'm going to feel so slighted if he doesn't. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 15:18 3
    - "Bery dear, who are those people who keep making the Vulcan had signs?" -- nm - the liioulu with hearts Feb 18, 15:20 2
      - [deleted] 1
        
        All they ccan find is an aquarium. -- nm - the liioulu with hearts Feb 18, 15:24
  - we could dress as an UNSC Spartan honor guard for him -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:11 8
    - dear god, you are on a roll of wrongness today aren't you. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:11 7
      - don't make me hit you in the back of the head and get a little star with a ninja face on it -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:14 6
        
        whatever. keep dreaming punk. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:16 5
        
        There is only one way to settle this - eag Feb 18, 15:20 4
        
        naw, battle rifles and shot guns. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:22 3
        
        or just regular guardian. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:23 2
        
        Or we can insert Remlik into the game but he cant kill anybody - eag Feb 18, 15:27 1
        
        But then when you think about it thats like every game anyway:) -- nm - eag Feb 18, 15:28
- The date that is more important - con_carne Feb 18, 15:04 1
  - May 15-17th -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 18, 15:25

U2 album has leaked -- nm - Stewie Feb 18, 14:53 4
- does it stink? -- nm - Dane Duke Nuuk Feb 18, 14:57 1
  - It stinks! -- nm - Jay Sherman Feb 18, 15:26
- ewwwww... bono everywhere... -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 18, 14:55
- Someone get a towel! -- nm - rollo Feb 18, 14:53
Gibbs's true successor is DiNozzo, any other suggestion is truman's brain on drugs -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 14:52 30
- IF Gibbs character goes, I say they bring in a new lead and Tony is not the team boss - peglegpete Feb 18, 15:14 7
  - have you been dipping into truman's meth stash? -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:15 6
    - without gibbs, the show falls flat - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:17 3
      - Tony is great, but he has been portrayed as a fun guy, not a stern leader type. what I am saying is that we need someone like Powers Booth to replace -- nm - peglegpete Feb 18, 15:20 1
        
        Gibbs -- nm - peglegpete Feb 18, 15:20
      - yeah. Tough, tough guy to replace. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 15:18
    - no. is it any good? -- nm - peglegpete Feb 18, 15:16 1
      - I don't think so, you can see the results here -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:18
- if i'm not mistake neither one is a real live person -- nm - Dane Duke Nuuk Feb 18, 14:58 5
  - I won't spoil it for you, but you've got a 50/50 chance of being right -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:02 4
    - so there is 50%change youre discussing imaginary people? - Dane Duke Nuuk Feb 18, 15:12 3
      - and there is a 50% chance that crash is delusional and thinks that the magic picture box shows real people. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:19 2
        
        Its like a crystal ball, only cooler. -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:25
        
        sometime i have that impression too - Dane Duke Nuuk Feb 18, 15:21
- you are so wrong, DiNozzo is the future director of ncis, and not a new gibbs. - tRuMaN Feb 18, 14:57
- Yep. When Jethro retires or gets kicked up to Director, it's Tony who'll run the show. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 14:53 14
  - haven't watched all of last night but I loved it so far. - Mel Profit Feb 18, 15:01 1
    - I still need to watch it. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:05
  - some methhead was trying to tell me yesterday that it was Ziva, first of all, she isn't the right nationality to be promoted at NCIS -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 14:54 11
    - heh, that was to mess with your mind. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 14:57
    - she's not even NCIS, she's on loan from Mossad. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 14:55 9
      - and then he mentioned the Elf Lord -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 14:57 8
        
        gibbs knows that mcghee is the type of agents that ncis needs - tRuMaN Feb 18, 14:58 7
        
        yeah, Gibbs's computer skills have served him so well... -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:02 6
        
        gibbs is old school, - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:03 5
        
        he knows it has its uses, but as a successor - he wants someone who will trust their gut -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:04 4
        
        its ok, you are wrong. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:05 3
        
        actually you are both right. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 15:09 2
        
        oh shush bald one. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 18, 15:13
        
        no, truman isn't, and that is why your post is in tiny letters -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 15:12
Seems like I might qualify for this "Homeowner stability initiative" ... how exciting -- nm - Stewie Feb 18, 14:43
I hate deciding what to kick off my iPod. -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:43 11
- Related: I have had Muse's "Absolution" on here for over a year, and have never listened to it. - TFox Feb 18, 14:51 2
  - You can keep it on your computer and not have it load to your iPod. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 18, 14:54 1
    - Yes, I know, but then I won't listen to it. -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:59
- solution - buy a bigger iPod -- nm - Roger More Feb 18, 14:45 4
  - Shuffle. You have it all, little bits at a time. -- nm - psilotum Feb 18, 14:48
  - I want one of those massive classics, can't rationalize the expense at the moment. -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:46 1
    - Yep - I have the 80gb and highly recommend it. Well, for an iPod anyway -- nm - Roger More Feb 18, 14:50
  - I concur -- nm - Mr. Nocountryfor Oldmen Feb 18, 14:45
- I bet ST would be more than willing to help you. -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 14:43 2

  - better than if they were paying for sex -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Feb 18, 14:37 1

OctoGrandma hasn't paid her mortgage in 10 months, so Octomom and her 14 kids may be out on the street soon (nmbl) - Brian Feb 18, 14:30 10
- Didn't she already lose a house because of Octo(+6) Mom? -- nm - the liioulu with hearts Feb 18, 15:21
- have they asked their loan servicer to produce the original loan documents? -- nm - znufrii, cliqueless Feb 18, 14:32
- Hasn't paid the mortgage since about the time OctoMom got sperminated. Coincidence? -- nm - Mr. Nocountryfor Oldmen Feb 18, 14:32 4

- I'm waiting for the reveal that they're dealing meth out of there. -- nm - Reagen Feb 18, 14:31 1
  - octo-strollers have lots of storage space -- nm - zork Feb 18, 14:32
Holy Clueless, Batman! DTV switch yesterday prompts 28,315 calls to FCC help line. -- (link) - JaxSean Feb 18, 14:29 7
- Yet society did not collapse. -- nm - Mop Feb 18, 15:00
- My Telemundo went off the air and suposedly will my Ion station though it was still ok yesterday -- nm - eag Feb 18, 14:31 3
  - Correction Ion is off the air on my TV so is another station but they are mostly an infomercial station -- nm - eag Feb 18, 14:34 2
    - but ion runs an ncis marathon on monday nights. - tRuMaN Feb 18, 14:38 1
      - I was a dork I let my DTV coupon expire - eag Feb 18, 14:43
- 0.009% of the population is calling in! -- nm - psilotum Feb 18, 14:31
- "My TV signal has fallen and it can't get up!!!" -- nm - TaurusII Feb 18, 14:30
yo Remlick, the social worker on LoM is the doctor on Sons of Anarchy and the dept store owner on Mad Men -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 14:29 2
- Ah, I knew it was you on MM Ms. Siff. -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 18, 14:33
- oh good catch. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 14:32
honestly, I think trish would be estatic if I move up there, but even more so when - tRuMaN Feb 18, 14:29
I hadn't realized Emily Rose/Quarantine chick was the sister on Dexter. (nm) - David Feb 18, 14:28 8
- and married him! -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 14:34 7
  - that creeped Trish out seeing the two of them together at the Golden Globes - crash davis Feb 18, 14:35 6
    - yeah it adds a whole new layer to Dexter now. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 14:36 5
      - It's better than the reverse. - TFox Feb 18, 14:37 4
        
        but I'd watch the Deschanel sisters if they were a couple on The L Word -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 14:41
        
        similarly - did you see the Justine Bateman episode of Arrested Development? -- nm - Roger More Feb 18, 14:39 2
        
        I did, but I'll be hecked if I can remember it now. -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:41 1
        
        (spoils, I guess) - Roger More Feb 18, 14:44
I knew of Brendan Benson before the Raconteurs. -- nm - Reagen Feb 18, 14:26 19
- But most of the music listening public hadn't before the Raconteurs. A supergroup needs at least two generally famous musicians to get the designation - Mr. Nocountryfor Oldmen Feb 18, 14:31 10
  - I'd toss a couple more iffy ones out: Gnarls Barkley, Velvet Revolver (though they kinda blow)... -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:34 5
    - Gnarls is kind of an interesting case. - Reagen Feb 18, 14:35 4
      - Neither were huge; they are greater than the sum of their parts. -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:36 3
        
        (The Postal Service is a similar case, but even less so.) -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:36 2
        
        I had heard of The Postal Service before I heard of Death Cab -- nm - Mr. Nocountryfor Oldmen Feb 18, 14:37
        
        it still cracks me up that UPS uses one of their songs. -- nm - Reagen Feb 18, 14:37
  - I'll grant that the definition is a bit looser for them, but Audioslave unquestionably qualifies. -- nm - Reagen Feb 18, 14:32 3
    - Unquestionably - Mr. Nocountryfor Oldmen Feb 18, 14:33 2
      - I used to dislike them, and I'm coming around. I think I might add them to the iPod. -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:34
      - unquestionably. -- nm - Reagen Feb 18, 14:34
- Is he from Canada? - TFox Feb 18, 14:27 7
  - nope, he's part of the same Michigan scene as Jack White. - Reagen Feb 18, 14:29

        yeah, I blew it because I couldn't fly over yesterday -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 14:38 1
        
        Don't Tread On Me. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 14:43
  - Michigan. Huh. Yeah, I never heard of him. - TFox Feb 18, 14:29
Also, college radio here plays Nirvana constantly, although I bet kids who only casually listen to music don't know the Foo/Grohl link. -- nm - TFox Feb 18, 14:26 1
- like the old Paul McCartney joke. -- nm - Remlik Feb 18, 14:29
