Re: The cranky thread I had food poisoning for two days end of last year. Fortunately, i got to stay home. I'd have hated to be at work. D

Re: The cranky thread Your mom still acting out? D

Re: Character: Socially Conscious Man! Obviously, this would never work for the Millar crowd. He doesn't seem to be an overwhelming jerk attempting to make the world a better place by taking it over in the author's emotionally stunted revenge fantasy. Other than that, looks good. D

Re: CHAMPIONS REVISED -- If We Do It, What Would You Like To See? Copyright is Lifetime of the Owner + 70 years (or 95 years in the case of Work for Hire). Trademark on the other hand, does have to be renewed/defended every so often or they're considered "abandoned". I think that's what Balabanto's referring to. Dunno how it would apply here, since the background information/costume design and the like should fall into Copyright, not Trademark. You might be able to poach the names, though. D

Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Heh, we got a new hot water heater installed yesterday. The one that was in the house was 15 years old. The house is only 12, so apparently the builder bought it in bulk and let it sit for a few years. It was so nice not having to keep adjusting the temperature up as my shower went on. D

Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Congrats again. D

Re: Musings on Random Musings You might be able to swallow pieces after chucking the thing against the wall because none of the features work, but I wouldn't recommend it. D

Re: The cranky thread Sounds like a good way. As opposed to a black pit of life draining suck. D

Re: A Thread for Random Musings On my entertainment news site, there's this unfortunate turn of phrase. I don't think she's THAT big anymore. D

Re: The cranky thread

Re: Musings on Random Musings Indeed. Brilliant plan. I hope he gets a big ole raise. D

Re: The cranky thread No help here, I married a Sugar Mama, so what's mine is hers and what's hers is hers. D

Re: The cranky thread I mean I'm glad oxygen's on the ball and have sent us every film they showed last quarter. Alas though, Breakfast at Tiffany's has been in the database for, oh, my lifetime. Terms of Endearment nearly that long. So, now I'm wading through crap to see what's good. Sigh. I got my work done early, and so I get stuck with this. No good deed goes unpunished. D

Re: Musings on Random Musings but, but, the LG Chocolate is so ... pretty and new and shiny and all the girls here at work must have them despite the fact that most of them work paycheck to paycheck and can't afford such a thing. From what I've seen, I concur. They're not worth the price. D

Re: The cranky thread Thanks muchly. D

Re: Musings on Random Musings /snort Thanks, I think. D

Re: The cranky thread

Re: Musings on Random Musings It's good to be back. I finally figured a way around the block here at work. D

Re: The cranky thread They upgraded my computer here at work. The keyboard is smaller than I'm used to. So, I've got a third less work done than usual, because I have to keep going back and correcting my typing. D

Re: A Thread for Random Musings I love it when someone proves your point every time he opens his mouth. D

I just relay what I'm told... Precicely. Good catch. D

Re: Master List of Limitations, HD Prefabs In response to the last few posts, Worldmaker/Jack Butler asked that the following be posted to this thread. "Jack Butler has forbidden Eddie Sells from directly associating the Master Lists with Dan Simon or his products except in this thread and this thread alone as a condition of the permission he gave Eddie Sells to produce the .hdc version of the Master List of Limitations." So, I'd imagine that Linking it to the Prefabs would be a non-starter. D

Re: A Thread for Random Musings This is the best week. Three days of vacation. Tomorrow's the Holiday Party, so we work 9-12 then go to the party. So, today was the only day I have to work. And they gave me my "Annual Merit Bonus" of 3.75% (4 was the max). Hee. D

Re: The cranky thread "Seventy, I thought you said Seven. My bad." ____ Two weeks ago on Monday, we came into work, it was 85 degrees. Several of us called Building Maintainance and bitched. They turned the AC blower up to "Warp Factor 9" and the temperature down to "Colder than my mother's heart." And it's been that way ever since. You know it's bad when people are going outside to get warm. And it was 54 degrees outside today. Down in the depths of the ground floor, I know the maintainance guys are laughing their asses off about us poor bastards in Cell Block 3. Sigh. D

Re: The cranky thread You too, Doug. I try. Apparently, I got it from my dad. The stories he can tell... D
