The Moderator: Following a suggestion from PSadlon, I am introducing a second type of moderator post. When I simply wish to explain or clarify a rule instead of warning someone, I'll be posting in blue instead of red. This is in order to save wear and tear on poster nerves so they do not think they have made a mistake or broken a rule when I am making a moderator post right after something they have written.

Ask mlooney about his monitor situation.

Poor Dan.  I'm glad he shared with us just how hard it was to create a comic with a character death.  The Geek is strong with him.  We may have only just met Blaike, but Dan has likely known him for years.

Brisbane I would think, and I'm not sure they would hate each other.

If you're ever in the Chicago area on the weekend before Halloween, I'll be happy to try to get you into Pretentious Drinking!  A dozen or more tables full of different kinds of booze, and you can try a little taste of your choice of them.

Give me warning points if you want, but I have to say this.
The attacks in Brussels were carried out by a bunch of cowardly b*st*rds who deserve to rot in whatever afterlife they've gone to.
That is all.

All bills paid, family loan paid back, major shopping for the month done and I still have money.  There are worse places to be.   And given that a good size chunk of the loan from my brother was to pay for a bed, that's $150 that is not recurring expense.

I am so sorry to hear of this. You, his family, and his loved ones have my full sympathies. May he find peace.

Oh Lord. Prof, I've already said this, but once again, do take care of yourself. I am serious -- go easy on yourself and try to take timeouts for something soothing when you can. We would all much rather see you get better soon, so be careful not to let irritation and frustration goad you into pushing yourself.

Good to hear. Feel better soon, Prof, and take good care of yourself.

All clear on the colonoscopy front. I felt horrible this morning until they got me into the procedure room and administered the sedation. I woke up about 15 minutes later with a clean bill of health, with the exception of my colon being exceedingly long and "tortuous" (i.e., lots of loops that most people don't have). The doctor wants me to have another one in five years—possibly by CT scan—which I might agree to if I don't have to go through another purge.
I'm back home, feeling a bit drained (literally), and trying to get myself back into semi-normal shape. Just thankful that it's over.

I am so sorry to hear of this. You, his family, and his loved ones have my full sympathies. May he find peace.

I'm so glad you spelled this properly. ^^

Thomas went to school wearing his Adorable Pink Frilly Parka that was a gift from his late cousin Amelia.
She acquired a quite unusual Taste in fashion. She had neon streaked hair, and many chains hanging on her neck. But Despite her excessive muscle growth, she's entirely harmless and she gladly hugs almost anyone.
A long time has passed since Amelia died in a prank gone Wrong. Apparently Fireworks were installed with faulty launchers, making it rain explosions. Nowadays, she haunts a very large part of town. Paranormal investigators love to try to cajole information from people who knew Amelia years ago.
At school, Thomas has problems with solving a problem involving other problems. His teachers hate his habit of nesting problems within convoluted webs of letters and numbers to process the streams of data from the latest Paraguayan economic indicators.
What that even had decided be relevant, was questionable on the grounds of various things that are related to absolutiely nothing.
"What are you even doing with those gigantic orange binders?" asked the floating magical girl hovering upsidedown behind The unlucky teacher.
Jumping a good five meters, the former astronaut replied, "Who are you, and how did you become inverted in time?"
"I am Sunny Jim."
To paraphrase McCoy, "I'm a Doctor, not The Doctor."
Looking far into the interstitial chronosphere for an apple fleeing from several poorly aligned sandwiches in pursuit of the lonely astronaut.
A sudden burst of loud music shook the heavens and shattered walls for miles. Mr John Foster Dulles Pinkerton flew to the Moon, only to realize that the invasion had already begun during the SxSW Conference several decades ago.

A grand resurgence took place in my intestinal tract as many bacteria as there were stars in the recently ruptured appendix as a result of over consumption. suddenly developed sentience and began moving to Detroit. There wasn't much there.  Or so it seems to Detective Baconbits Von Neuman Vandertramp III, and it soon became quite a pickle.
The pickle leaped into the ominous star filled void.  A vacuum cleaner removed evidence of

All the cool kids are using internal combustion or hybrid electric engines nowadays.

My age varies with whatever year it is.

i actually have a job lined up for the first time in almost a year.

Ford, you're turning into a penguin. Stop it.

I would have started it but doing a cut and paste on a tablet is a pain and I didn't feel like going to the living room to use the real computer.

I can't tell if Dan is being a troll or if he is being a magnificent bastard.  Or just the world's best tap dancer.
