McAfee is a horrid piece of software. Even Mr. McAfee agrees that it's been destroyed.

However the whole question is moot nowadays. Microsoft has its own anti-virus now, it's free with the OS; I bought a new computer last year, told the person at the store that it better god-damned well not have ...

I noticed the hacking of the site when I came here the night it happened, at about 3:00 am, and saw the graffiti left on the front page. It scared the holy shit out of me. Ran a scan of my system immediately, all was well, so I crossed my fingers and hoped for the best for the site.

To my amazement ...

I thought it was just a couple weeks of slow entries, but you're right.... no recent posts.

I'm sure all is well, but do let us know, dude!

Awesome reaction. You're making me think of my parents with your post.

Yeah... my mom would'a giggled :) .... and sent a fruit basket. She was gloriously, utterly blithely unaware that her urban (and urbane), Modern Christian (United Church, aka "Church Lite"), I'm-very-inclusive-and-certainly-not ...

So, I'd like to talk about something with you folks that I've almost never mentioned to anyone.

I guess I have two "psychoses", although they've never really interrupted my life.

The first is minor, only mentioned as it may relate to the 2nd, stranger one.

1) OCD, but minor. Note, I hate when ...

D'aww... dude, thanks!

Somebody dropped by today with a tin full of birthday-banana-chocolate-chip muffins, totally made my day, and then I saw this.

Woohoo!

Also:

I totally believe in making things fun and retaining a sense of childishness; it's good for the body and brain... so I bought and ...

Talula! Happy B-day, when your cake is brought out, remember, it's YOUR cake. Slam your face into it and eat it all.

Also;

While reading Mac's original post, the radio (CBC, late-night weirdness (yay, best time to listen)) is playing "Tequila".

Did you know one can substitute your name and it ...

Dude... excellent point. Thanks. Why the hell didn't I think of this?

Color me Duh

Not sure if I should make a new topic for this? It relates to clothes shopping, though.

I have a BIG problem with clothes shopping, and it aint size.

I refuse to have logos, company names, or goofy, stupid shit on my clothes. Pants are easy; I can find great quality un- or barely-branded pants and ...

Wow do I feel for you Mac.

I've had some horrendous roomies in the past, but I can't begin to imagine having the kind of crap you have going on inside my house.

I have a tenant in a separated area of the house but I don't think I could share my personal living space again. At least, not with ...

A limerick for our Nun with a Habit

Happy Birthday to good Mister Kristoff

I hope that you do not get pissed off

I didn't send you

A bottle of lube

For Happy-Birth-Day evening jerk-offs



Happy B-day Krister!

"...
we'll have to make a trek north of the border to bother you in your home territory.

Y'all must come and watch the mennonites (and their lil' mennoletts) stroll the avenue while we sup beer from the front portch.

'tis one of my favorite pastimes :). Yep, smack-dab in the middle of ...

D-'awwww... thanks you guys!

No dinner (warmed-over burgers from the weekend BBQ, though... yum!) but I got a call from my awsome ol' dad, and then after work, I came home and found this thread.

Warmed me right up. You guys rock!

And, note to River, indeed, if I'm gonna eat something good, I do ...

Hey, you too !?

I used to love driving cross-country; still do, but got rid of my car. So, for several years, I used the bus or flew.

Well, I hate flying. Nervous as heck every time. Can't handle the idea that my life is dependent upon some schmuck having tightened one or two bolts, or a high ...

Thanks for the responses, gentlemen. Truly makes me feel all home-y. Don't know what I'd do without you all and this place to fall back on.

Hi guys!

Not that I think many would have noticed (I have zero ego!), but a couple of you may have noted my absense over the last little while.

First, sorry for not contacting folks. I dropped out of a few conversations and responsibilities here in the last few months. I apologize, folks.

I did ...

Thanks to those of you who sent me the numeric 'fix'.

It didn't work for me, but the numeric link with /vbulletin did; thanks Moi! At least I can see the boards now.

I very strongly appreciate Kristoff's posture in this thread. Very professional. For me, the loss of acces to the stories is very ...

Hey, happy birthday!

I know just the place to take you, but it's in Canada and it's November, so... probably not, eh?

Hope your day goes just the way YOU like it.

Ooo I know...

"iT" is the new iTickle from apple!

teehee, stop it! I'm gonna pee!!!

Well thats one way to get the population wondering !

My guess; the evil entity from Steven King's "It" is going to orgasm and spew its evil seed all over the boards.

That, or Paolo's finely crafted lightsaber he ordered last year is finally due to arrive

Or the Nun's habit is coming back from the ...

Nice D. Adams touch at the end there, Sir Paolo :p (the house I bought is street address number 42; I'm immensely happy about that!)

Must admit I almost had a heart-failure when I came tonight and didn't immediately see the story section where it was before, but it's quite plainly findable still ...

Check the rules.

Nobody here will recommend nor mention anything to do with illegal cutting ("castratrix").

Hospital, by a doctor, is the only way.

Got 42 towels and a depressed robot ready and standing by.

You guys, ALL of you who are working for the archive, are the best. THE best.

At least, the hackers who are threatening this board are basically stupid (extorting a non-profit site). Let's hope their stupidity includes their technical know ...

Me, I've been eating cookies all night.

Chocolate chip oatmeal. They are very yummy

I've also been lamenting the fact I did not, again, clean the living room; it desperately needs a top to bottom cleaning, and I got lazy again today. Did some writing instead.

I'm just a party machine

I have given up trying to define my musical tastes.

I grew up with Classical and still like it at relaxing times, especially piano concertos, and lately Glenn Gould's recordings.

I recently re-discovered jazz for myself, mostly new-ish lounge-stuff (think Diana Krall), but also Miles Davis' more ...
