        I hear when it explodes it actually feels better for a while. then much much worse. -- nm - mafic Dec 17, 00:45

  - but about citizen kane, it's pretty much been available for anyone to see on video/dvd for 20+ years, if you haven't gotten around to seeing it - mafic Dec 17, 00:58 1

spending a little time on the CX boards, i can foresee that early Fri numbers are going to be particularly valuable - pigby Dec 16, 21:50 9
- So let's say you want to sell something you're holding long after you see low Friday numbers. Who's going to buy your shares? That's what I don't get. -- nm - mara Dec 17, 05:07
- I need to get Notfabio's number on speed dial then, stat! -- nm - Qale Dec 16, 22:17 2
  - that was my very first thought - pigby Dec 16, 22:18 1
    - Once he posts it on the board it's pretty public, but I imagine he's not really supposed to be posting it. -- nm - Qale Dec 16, 22:21
- i have not looked at anything about it except the initial pr dealio. is it worthy of a look now? -- nm - b! merry and bright. Dec 16, 22:13 4

    - thanks; and, oh, there were invites? did i get one? -- nm - b! merry and bright. Dec 16, 22:16 2

        whatwhat? - b! merry and bright. Dec 16, 22:18 13
        
        So it's ok for you to discuss it, but not ok for someone to mention it has probably been discussed enough? - TFox Dec 16, 22:27 10
        
        you have been here long enough to know how this goes. - b! merry and bright. Dec 16, 22:31 9
        
        I'm not sure why everyone seems to feel they get to tell loosi how to act. - Reagen Dec 16, 23:03 1
        
        i'm sorry. sincerely. - b! merry and bright. Dec 16, 23:27

        Um yeah, about that. - Trish Dec 16, 23:44 2
        
        i'm sorry to you, too. -- nm - b! merry and bright. Dec 16, 23:53 1
        
        No worries, it's cool. Now, you need to take care of yourself, seriously. - Trish Dec 17, 00:49
        
        nothing has happened. can we stop please? -- nm - loosilu Dec 16, 22:42
        
        I am sorry that I have somehow upset you. -- nm - TFox Dec 16, 22:41
        
        my head hurts now. -- nm - loosilu Dec 16, 22:20 1
        
        ::uploads sleepytime tea:: -- nm - b! merry and bright. Dec 16, 22:22
- Repetitive argument is repetitive. -- nm - Qale Dec 16, 21:29
- I agree with your subject line, looking forward to new episodes of Psych and Burn Notice -- nm - amoxy Dec 16, 21:25
- "TV shows, I think it depends. Certain shows probably don't even merit any spoiler warnings. Others may require a spoiler from series beginning... - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Dec 16, 21:22
- Fuck us young parents with kids too; we get enough entertainment watching our children to no longer need movies and TV. - TFox Dec 16, 21:16 15
  - Hell yeah! There are NO acceptable excuses. You either see it in the theater or all bets are off. - Trish Dec 16, 21:18 14
    - If I knew that my $10 ticket bought me the right to be such a cocksmith, it would seem like such a better deal. -- nm - TFox Dec 16, 21:19 13
      - Aren't you already a cocksmith for running Colin off? -- nm - Qale Dec 16, 22:07 12
        
        Oh, c'mon now. - kelly Dec 17, 04:04
        
        I suppose that would be up for debate, sure. -- nm - TFox Dec 16, 22:34 10
        
        You should email him and bring him back. -- nm - Qale Dec 16, 22:39 9
        
        And say what exactly? -- nm - TFox Dec 16, 22:39 8
        
        That you wished the shivs didn't get out of hand. ST can't be losing members now that we're on our own deserted island. -- nm - Qale Dec 16, 22:43 7
        
        While I appreciate that, honestly, and I swear to you I am taking your point seriously here... - TFox Dec 16, 22:48 6
        
        Something like that... - Qale Dec 16, 22:50 5
        
        ha. maybe that could work. - TFox Dec 16, 22:53 4
        
        I actually admit to not being familiar with the details. - Qale Dec 16, 22:56 3
        
        Well, and this was obviously BS and not true, but he specifically said "this isn't because of TFox" in his farewell. - TFox Dec 16, 23:00 2
        
        It's alright. - Qale Dec 16, 23:04 1
        
        Hey, no harm no foul. - TFox Dec 16, 23:07
Maybe you could tie all the pants together, throw them out the window, hit the Japanese place, they could fill the pockets with raw fish... - TFox Dec 16, 21:12 4
- i just remembered a story i saw on tv about a pet penguin who would walk into town and the fish monger would put fish in his little backpack to take - zork Dec 16, 21:15 3
  - I just remembered a story about a penguin whose car broke down and while it was in the shop he got an icecream cone to stay cool. It melted everywhere - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Dec 16, 21:18 1
    - "No, I just had a double-french-vanilla ice cream cone." -- nm - Penguin Dec 16, 21:39
