Fixing an administrative problem with the forums this evening resulted in tables related to the forum in the database being cleared. There is a trouble ticket registered with Digital Forest at this moment requesting the restoration of those tables. Hopefully they'll be restored soon.

Thanks for your patience.

No you fools... don't enter the same city, lob in sleeping gas from the
outskirts.

Then evacuate Wichita ... heck evacuate Kansas while Duh sleeps...

sigh...

Who are WE kidding... Duh is busy with ebay, and her "reanimated"
Career, taking this in stride... and We're the ones still posting on anything
at all to keep from getting the jitters ;-)

That's just ODD, that people's thoughts would AUTOMATICALLY go to ME, when the forums are down. NEO posts more than me, for crimminy sakes, he would be more in a position to commit hari kari...

I *love* this. This is like the woman with sixty cats complaining about that crazy old coot next door with forty hound dogs. Social Services is comin' for both of you someday... :-)

So, the thread about Adobe buying Macromedia is becoming the Graphic Design place. Is this the temporary home of the I&I?

Go Dusty! Go Dusty! Go Dusty!

Congratulations, gal!

So, this means you'll no longer be posting to the forums, but J will start wearing a red wig, swilling Dr. Pepper, going pantless, adopting face biting dogs and posting in your place, right?

Oh. Wait. That was the "Shawn gets new gig and leaves" story...

My bad. :-)

Shoot. I'll be working two job, because I had promised not to leave current job high and dry, so that will be about 20 hours a week.

So basically, 12-15 hour days until I collaspse or have a psychotic episode.

New Job:
Cool guys to work with who all seem to be Sam Cruts...
WAY lots of money, with a potential big kick up in 6 months...
My own office...
Bleeding edge equipment and software...
A Lightwave workstation...
A potential staff....
I get to wear jeans...

<i>I get to wear jeans...</i>

Shawn getting married.
Tiger ships ahead of the deadline.
Duh gets a good job.

Signs of the Apocalypse?

Anyway, conrats!

Don't spend a year's salary before you get the first paycheck!
Don't get fired for sexually harassing the interns.
Don't get caught downloading Kiefer movies on company time.
Don't sell company office equipment on eBay.
Don't ditch Wuzhizface if you end up making more money than him.
Don't forget your less fortunate pals.
Resist urge to kill monkey-woman-esque cow-orkers and bosses.
Don't work too hard (but don't be lazy either).

Ye-haaaaaa!!!!! I knew it! I am soooooo happy to hear this, Dusters...and
proud of you for persevering at your job search. You deserve this one, and I
wish Witchita wasn't so damn far away so I could buy you a celebratory
drink. (Now...inquiring I&Iers want to know...was this the resumé envelope I
picked out months ago?)
