Also, I think it's pretty obvious that things are going well again.

If a person is a contributor, or even a reader, I suppose, to a BBS for too long... he snaps. It happens. I "snapped" once over at Jeff's board. I've been more than willing to snap at a few other places over the years. I had some posts of mine deleted on a Saints BBS and I snapped. Certainly, Jeff snapped over here and Pinner has snapped many times.

So, Jack Straw just snapped. It happens and it is perfectly human. Taking some time off is the best way to handle it.

Yes, I need to make the place green. And put a link to the main site up top. There's work to be done. But in all honesty, I like logging on here a lot more recently than in quite some time before it.

If I don't snap at least three times I day I usually snap over the missed opportunities.

I am in the process of snapping basically 24/7

I basically told a government employee to shove it today.

Congrats to CHAINGANGGUY for making the front page today!

Thanks, Ben. And may I add: what a great looking front page it is!

That is very kind of you to say. It is not perfect, but it at least got all our stuff up correctly, which many former themes used could not. Or would not, either / or.

Oh god.

Look, the plusses are much better than the FUCKING ALIENS.

And if you must have FUCKING ALIENS have them as a complete theme, not MOSTLY FUCKING ALIENS and SOME PLUSSES.

Hrrrghhhahh.

Also: all the greens are way too saturated. Cool them down. Move them towards gray.

They aren't aliens, they are the icons used for Mr. Bandwidth, who told you what your connection speed was on the Total Entertainment Network.

I am open to any and all HTML color codes you find reasonable.

Green is good. Could you make the BBS more shiny, like the front page?

I think it's looking really good.

But yes, please get rid of the FUCKING ALIENS.

Are we aspiring for greatness here or what?

CHEERS to Pinback, ChainGangGuy and PWC2 Reader/Tragic Burn Victim for their excellent contributions this week.

JEERS to Ice Cream Jonsey, who failed to write anything for his own goddamn website.

Wrong! You wrote the Asteroids retrospective, surely the finest submission the JC world has experienced this week, in terms of greatness-aspiration!

Oh. Well, I didn't actually post that to the front of the website.

Maybe if I successfully sell Xeno and get an Asteroids machine. Then I will upgrade it so it gets the attention of a guy selling life insurance and car insurance, who has attempted to spam every single update in the new JC's history.

You should do that.

Hmm. I guess I "snapped" in winter 2007 when I decided to drop out of college and start wearing tits and dresses on you tube. Fortunately, I left you lott mostly alone for that.
