AJ Batac :)
I guess someone got sick and tired.

I may have once blocked someone into a space like that. There are rumors that he walked to my car to confront me, but turned around when I stepped out. That's all hearsay, though. - ha3rvey ($10 HUGS!!!)
Makes me want to key it. :P - caj needs a haircut from FFHound!
La doucherie, c'est magnifique! - ωαřмaiden TeamOtto
caj, no need. Someone seems to have slashed his tires. - AJ Batac :)
Oh, didn't notice at first on my phone. :) (And your OP now makes more sense.) - caj needs a haircut from FFHound!
...but no one slashed the tyres. I have no clue what type of car this is, btw. - WoH: Minding her Botts
I think it's a Nissan Cube, WoH - AJ Batac :)
That would make sense :) - WoH: Minding her Botts
If it's a Nissan Cube, the Chevy symbol on the front license plate makes very little sense. - Curdy G
:) that's where I took out the license plate - purely coincidentally making it look like a Chevy! I hadn't noticed until you said that. - WoH: Minding her Botts
I think it just looks similar to the Chevy symbol. However, the sides are not angled. Trick of the shadows. - caj needs a haircut
Oh. :) I thought it was an airbrushed Chevy symbol; but now I see it's just a blurred license plate inside of a black license plate frame. Silly me. - Curdy G

When I was a kid we decorated shoeboxes with tissue and doilies, cut a slot in the top and waited for the Valentines to come pouring in. I wasnt a popular kid so my box never had more than a handful, but I loved the day nonetheless...still do. Wishing you a sweet day of sunshine, friends, laughter, smiles, and joy. Happy Valentines Day!
*dumps Valentines on Shannon* Much love to you! - Rollin' in the LB
By the time I was in elementary school (1980s), I think they required everyone to bring a Valentine for every student in the class, if they were participating at all. I used to go all out and cut out construction paper hearts to make a Valentine card for each classmate by hand with a personalized message, even for the ones I didn't like. I would at least just say "Happy Valentine's Day!" if I had nothing else nice to say. I think I got all excited because it was an opportunity to craft a bunch of stuff. - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
I agree Kamilah, the crafty was probably the best part for me too (also, thanks for reminding me how freakin' old I am - HAH!) - Shannon - GlassMistress

Found the name of Lix's fabric ... doesnt help her much, but knowing that my fabric-fu is still strong is a warm fuzzy feeling :D

I may order some to make a headband or knitting bag at some point. :D So it does help. - Lix
Ya know ... with a little research, I could probably produce that bag for you. Just saying. - Shannon - GlassMistress

I don't know.. but it is awesome! :) - Tim Hoeck
Wow, looks like somebody bumped this! - Kevin Fox
I think there were a bunch of spam comments made to some 2009-era posts by FF employees. For some reason even after the spam is nuked, the post stays bumped. - Stephen Mack
Yes, I blocked a spammer that was bumping old posts about FF themes and what not. - Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart
OH HAI! - Eric
Well, let's see this as an opportunity to raise a virtual glass to Ben and FriendFeed-that-was! - Kevin Fox
It probably had something to do with the Tornado 2.2 release. I noticed Ben was the one who posted about the release on HN earlier. Edit: Or it could have just been a spammer. *shrugs* - Jimminy, CoG of FF
I don't think it had anything to do with the tornado release - a spammer bumped a bunch of Bret's old posts today. - Ben Darnell

The future is so wide and unexplored. Anything seems possible.

Hmm, I have those "ugly old brass" fixtures. LOL - Janet-The Bottley Crue
You can have mine for spares, Janet! :D - Scoble, Alex Scoble
The classic ones with glass are cool. - Cristo
Y'all have no idea how relieved I am to discover that I am not alone in making the association between this light fixture design and well-formed boobage! All those years of tacit guilt! I mean, as if the glass shape wasn't enough, they go and add those perfectly erect "nipple caps"... Who are you trying to kid, lighting designers?!! - Mark J Severely Corny from Android
Meh, I'm unimpressed. We have the Nippledome here after all. - Lix
Thanks for the offer to take the brass as spare, will graciously pass. ;) - Janet-The Bottley Crue
Well, I figured I'd offer after making the offending remarks vis a vis your lights. :( - Scoble, Alex Scoble
My wife and I call these "boob lights". Sometimes even in lighting stores... - Brian Johns

My father never knew his father. He was an only child, raised by his mother. He never knew why his father either left or was kicked out -- his mother would never tell him. In his late '50s, due to a random web page I wrote about my family, my father was discovered by his half-sister.
It turns out my grandfather had started a new family, even given his new first-born son the same name as my father. My father learned this from his newly found half-sister. He also found out that his father had passed away 10 years before. - Stephen Mack
All his life, my father loved Jewish culture, had Jewish friends, read Jewish humor books (mostly Leo Rosten). - Stephen Mack
My father had absolutely zero idea until he was 59 that his father was Jewish. - Stephen Mack
His mother was Catholic. She never talked about anything Jewish at all. He found it on his own. - Stephen Mack
I don't know much about anything, but to me there's something to the idea that a Jewish identity is a mix of culture and upbringing and also in the blood. - Stephen Mack
#SaturdayFF I guess, sorry it's late. - Stephen Mack
That's so interesting! (and a little sad) That makes you 1/4 Jewish... Who'd a thunk? - Yvonne from FFHound!
That's fascinating, Stephen. I heard a similar story once on This American Life. - Kelli H.
Whoa. That's very similar to my dad's story. It makes Jewish identity sort of complicated. - Georgie Bestie
Wow, you don't look one-quarter late-onset Jewish! O_o #BadDumbJoke! - Mark J Severely Corny from Android

WOW. I'm done with homework a full 14 hours before the deadline. Might not seem like much to you but for me this is like being done a year in advance!
So now you can start on the next assignment! - Kirsten
That's just the crazy talkin', honey. - Bubba Botts
Seriously, it means I can start on the other 10,000 things in life that need to be done. Not 30 seconds after I posted this m'girl texted me asking if I'd pay a bill. *sigh* - Bubba Botts
I never did claim to be quite sane where school work was concerned. But yeah, probably better to prioritize other stuff. - Kirsten
<3Heather<3
Late #SaturdayFF When I was about 9 a family moved in across the street from my house. They had a 5 year old daughter. Not many kids my age lived near me (only 1 friend on the street) so on a daily basis there weren't many kids to hangout with. She eventually became a friend by default since we could both just go outside to see each other.
At first she was fun. She just joined in whatever was going on. Her mom paid me to "babysit" sometimes. In nice weather my cousin and I would do homework outside and she liked to join us. - <3Heather<3
Eventually, she turned into a real brat. Everything would be fine and from nowhere she wouldn't want to do what we were doing. She would want everything her way. Some days she loved us and some days it was like she was trying to get us angry. - <3Heather<3
Anytime we had a disagreement she would run to mom, who would always storm outside to yell at whoever was involved. Being 12 and being yelled at by a grown woman who is clearly in the wrong kind of flips a switch mentally. She also stole from me. It was always little and inexpensive (candy, bracelets, etc.) but she violated my trust. - <3Heather<3
A few years ago I found out she is bipolar. This helped explain a lot of what went on, but everyone seems to want me to be friends with her again and I'm not interested. Aside from chatting with her pleasantly from time to time, I will never be friends with her again. - <3Heather<3
I feel like this was such a big part of my life. For about 7 years I had to learn to negotiate, when to let things go (probably too often, which is why I rarely stick up for myself), to hide anger, to shut up and get yelled at (by her mom), to keep an eye on my things and know the signs that she wanted something of mine, to decipher lies, and to deal with unpleasant circumstance. - <3Heather<3

I slept in until almost noon. I can see that this will be a productive day.
I did start a load of laundry. - Katy S
I don't think productivity is a good measure of quality for days anyway. I hope you have a good one :) - Eivind from Android
Well, I need to get some things done so that I'm not living in a mess, which would drive me batty. - Katy S
Plus, I would like to wear clean clothes this week. :) - Katy S
Got the shop vac out and cleaned around the cat box. It's amazing how much cat litter they kick out. I blame Plum. She likes to take flying leaps out of the box that scatter litter. - Katy S
Did some regular vacuuming and some dusting. Unfortunately, the little gray cat kept getting in my way. She isn't particularly scared by the vacuum cleaner. - Katy S
A pan of baked oatmeal is in the oven for my breakfasts this week. - Katy S
Oh great. By the sound of it, one of the cats just gave me another cleaning job to do. - Katy S
Yep. Add cleaned up cat puke to the list of things done today. Again, I blame the gray one. - Katy S
She has occasional bulimic moments. It's not uncommon with cats. It just seems like she brings it on herself by gorging on food and then racing around. Clearly, her kitteh-mama didn't teach her to rest for a bit after eating. - Katy S
Katy, I have a cat who does that too and went through a really terrible spell of it recently. It required multiple vet visits and apparently nothing is wrong...he would just binge and binge and make himself sick. - joey
Warning - TMI event: My Thea takes purging to new heights, for real. Heard the hark and splatter and was able to catch the second half in paper towels. The higher from the floor on the purge makes her most happy. - Janet-The Bottley Crue
Yup, I had a cat who'd do the binge and purge. She has anxiety issues too, lol. - Melly Botts
Well, I just got my third and final load of laundry started. Also, the dishwasher is loaded and ready to run after I finish my brownie. I think that's enough productivity for today. - Katy S

peanut butter is fine (also, a legume, not a nut) - marthalib
Yeah, we've used peanut butter a lot over the years. It's just that this dog goes nuts for it. I usually stick it in a small kong to keep her occupied. - Stephan Planken from iPhone

CASH Music Platform by CASH Music — Kickstarter
"So first there's the problem we see. Everything starts with musicians, but with all the money around music they're the last to see any. All the musicians we know work so hard just to keep their heads above water. The whole Internet thing was supposed to make things egalitarian, but it didn't. It's mostly startups with big money and major labels making weird deals and everyone else still working so hard and keeping their heads above water. Entire companies are being built around the idea that if they can finally make the Internet work for musicians then they can get rich. Some are making things better. Some are making things worse. But they're all doing it backed by millions of dollars on the promise that they'll deliver billions later — and in their world it's consumers (fans) and product (music, more specifically music copyrights.) So what we did was build a whole lot of things that musicians can use, do it in the open where it's all totally free, and do it as a Nonprofit so Sony... more... - Spidra Webster from Bookmarklet
They are doing very well. $5000 already. I think once they are a full non-profit they need to hire a grant writer or PR person. Things are not very well written and they will need that going forward. But they have a lot of professional support in addition to the artists and I think they will get there without a problem. - Rachel Lea Fox
