Adolf Sip: "I think any paste from an outside source is now not allowed."

Heh... No, it's just Ace's way of making sure commenters have to work a little harder. For the common good.

It's those Unicode apostrophes, quotemarks, and dashes that are hardest to spot.

Nip Sip: "Pixy is wearing me out with not allowing cut and paste from other sources."

You do know about http://bit.ly/pixyize for converting Unicode to Pixy-acceptable 1990s HTML, right?

As long as I'm reading from the AoSHQ Survival Guide, here's the smilies page: http://smilies.mee.nu/

And for completeness: bold, strike, underline, and italics use one-letter codes in [square brackets].

Finally, rule #12: Don't ask, and don't search on it.

Morning, Glories!

Reading along, got up to #100, decided I'd check in before the next thread went up.

Vic, you're just unreliable nowadays. Gonna have to cut your salary in half. Which will not change the amount, of course.

anon a mouse: Congratulations on the move finally going down. Texas is no Oklahoma, but it's okay.

Kreplach: Amtrak loses money on bar cars:
Milady says, does this mean the government is actually paying for passengers to drink? Amazing.

Okay, back to #101...

Morning, Glories, such morning as is left.

Got up late, and haven't done much this morning but feed the pets and scan through AoS comments.

No Vic News and no Ben Dump. Does not feel right.

Mentioned -no Vic News today- to my daughter, she replied, "Oh dear! A day without Vic is like going back to broadcast tv news! Lol" (quoted con permiso)

Or at least back to Drudge.

Hm. Half my comment disappeared. User error, no doubt.

I wanted to add, the drawing means all that much more because of your difficulties.

(For which difficulties you get many prayers, by the way, 'though I rarely wave hi. Your fighting spirit is inspiring!)

Beautiful work, Zilla. I'm serious. There's one out there that's just a generic stick figure with the caption something like, I can't draw, but this is Mo, really! It's so very much the thought that counts!

My "entry," created back when the first Dutch cartoon thang arose, attached.

Nevergiveup last thread #262: "Active shooter in mall in PA"

Was that this?

Three people were hospitalized Sunday with gunshot wounds after a 17-year-old male opened fire on a man at a Pittsburgh-area mall, police said, striking his intended target as well as two bystanders.

Perp ID'd and arrested, per Fox News

EST, or EDT? Let's see, if it's 2pm EST, and I'm in CDT, but my house clock is on CST which is tantamount to MDT, then um.. um.. I don't know when to get scared!

Troll comes in, all full of superior attitude, spewing we-they divisive group-thinking.

Normally, even with disagreements on issues, folks don't get all group-thinky my side your side like that. Much less the absurd caricatures of the other side.

Funny thing is, though. By participating here, troll is "one of us." Thanks for playing.

Got up, fed married son a hearty breakfast and sent him on his way back to his wife. Nice to have had him come visit for Mother's Day. Nice to have a chance to talk with him.

But I missed the whole early morning thread. Kids! Still disrupting my routines!

Morning, Glories. Now to go see what everybody had to say.

Jus' wanna say...

I appreciate the breadth and depth of knowledge and interests of the horde generally, but the book thread is always especially impressive, and humbling.

Thank you, Oregon Muse, for hosting the thread. (And thanks to our snoozing ringmaster his ewokship.)
