Time for a cat scan! - Jemm
Iz I the right way up for printing? - Vicky

LOL, Soup! - Kol Tregaskes
that is one adorable kitten! - Anna Lynn M.
Too Funny! Reminds me of the San Mateo Cat Shelter where one of the cats loves to sleep on top of the laster printer where the paper comes out... - Greg Lato

this is underfaksink at its worzt - pb:
Petr, I have no idea what you mean, but thank you. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
@Kol .. :] that, partially, might have been the purpose.... I don't know it exactly either. :] .. was I reflecting on a cat under the fax, and that it is hard to fax that way ... /?:] ... "underfaxing at its worst" .. - pb:
Ah, OK, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
there ya have me ! :] .... see, to be honest with you, i saw this pic couple days ago, but i let it go, without posting it ..... what does that make me? :] - pb:
OMGosh, just 23 more likes to beat this: http://beta.friendfeed.com/imified... ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
433 Like ! Wow ! - Like
Freemor, yes very cute! :-D - Kol Tregaskes
cute~ - Chan Pen
that's why is called a cat scan and not a cat fax. - Phil Maxwell
oh ... a scan. not fax?! .... it looked to me like she was faxink - pb:
Just 5 more likes needed. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Fax, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
even a flat cat... faxes just can't handle the hair. You'd have to shave the cat first, else the hair will burn and stick to the drum... a mess! (I am extrapolating from transparencies, mind, i don't have access to a cat to test) - Iphigenie
Hehe, Joelle. This is now tied for the 'likes' top stop. One more then, hehe. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Hehe, Greg. Blimey! Erm, is that not far from 500 likes now? ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Bloody marvelous, Kol. Wish I could like it again... too cute (and help u to 500 likes). - Roberto Bonini
I couldn't believe it when I logged on from the morning over posting it and saw it was at something 200 likes! You all have a strange fetish with cats and fax machines, hehe. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Am I the only one who saw this and their first thought was - My goodness did someone break that cats neck? It still freaks me out a little - SteVe "Glory Juice" C
Steve, it does look a little out of place, but cats are pretty bendy. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
They fax much better if you flatten them first. What? - Kevin (barely visible)
LOL, Kevin. - Kol Tregaskes
i can also imagine the cat going there cause it is snug and warm - Iphigenie
Ey, it would be a tad warm on there, especially after a long working day. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Caption which needs to be said aloud: Uh Ohz, I'm totally FAXED! - sofarsoShawn <right here>
Hehe, Shawn. 10 more for the big 5-0-0. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Countdown! 8 more now! - Mike Nayyar
bump for more likes - Josh Haley

Isn't it illegal to fax a pussy? - aerobroken
It's really only social convention which regards it as inappropriate, same with Xeroxing it, like one does with their b__tocks. Wait are we still talking about cats cats here or... - sofarsoShawn <right here>

Love this one! - Fossil Huntress
Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
I love it when Agent Skully has to help out Booth and Bones. Also, I'm messing with the ratio and putting up a little Zooey with Emily.
Bones-tv-show-f17.jpg
emilyzooey.jpg
More Zooey! - Adam, Young Padawan
as usual, I have to remind you all. Emily > Zooey - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
Not even / you can ask Steven. - Adam, Young Padawan
Steven doesn't know whats good - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
I'm with Steven on this one. - Roberto Bonini from iPhone
sadly you are all mistaken - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
If choosing Zooey is wrong, then I don't wanna be right - Adam, Young Padawan
Blasphamey Joe. Blasphamey. - Roberto Bonini from iPhone
Wait...the character from the x-files, or just Gillian Anderson? Either way, I need to see that. - Josh Haley
Josh, take a closer look at the first picture. - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
Emily > Zooey, mainly because Emily can actually act. - Tudor Bosman
1UP Tudor. - Derrick
What else has Emily done besides Bones? - Adam, Young Padawan
My point exactly ;) - Adam, Young Padawan
I take issue with that. Zooey is not just a HOPA..... - Roberto Bonini from iPhone
I'd take Emily only to try talk them into a 3 way. Giggity. - Otto
+10 Otto! - Adam, Young Padawan
So Adam, you are saying that being involved in a very big mini-series event, being part of a huge trilogy, having parts in a bunch of movies and starring in a long-running Television series is insignificant? - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
:) Nah, just saying Zooey's resume is strong. She was great in "Eulogy", "All the Real Girls", and "Winter Passing", among others. - Adam, Young Padawan
you forgot Elf and 500 days of Summer. I still don't think that makes her resume any more "Strong" than Emily's - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
She was also in HHGTTG. Not that it was a great performance, but geekcred++. - Otto
There's no winner here. I just like Zooey's style more than Emily's. Zooey does get typecast--and maybe for a good reason--but for whatever reason I don't mind it... I liked her in Elf, (500) Days, Failure to Launch, and Yes Man too. (Chicks on keytars are hot!) - Adam, Young Padawan
All of Zooey's roles are - "look at me! I'm cute! and aloof! did I mention I'm cute?" - Tudor Bosman
I love that y'all are talking about their acting. Does that really matter (maybe I'm biased or not in consideration)? And again, what Tudor said. - Derrick
@Tudor That's where the typecasting comes in, but I still don't mind. In All the Real Girls and Winter Passing she was more than that, and she did a great job. - Adam, Young Padawan
@Derrick If we're going just by looks, Zooey gets my vote. If we're going by enjoyment of the projects they've been in, regardless of their acting, Zooey gets my vote. - Adam, Young Padawan
I prefer Caleb, their talented and award-winning cinematographer father. - Derrick
Zooey with Emily, are both so Beautiful, Zooey can actually sing as well. I have a huge crush on both of them and have even told Emily in conversation. - aerobroken
Derrick, did you know that Caleb has worked on Bones a few times? - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
Bump, just cause I like stirring the pot - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
No pot stirring needed. Zooey is clearly more beautiful and talented ;) - Adam, Young Padawan
Adam is confused - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
If so, happily so. - Adam, Young Padawan
Does Emily have an adorable throwback band with a noted folk singer/guitarist? No? Case. Rested. - Jandy
Emily doesn't feel the need to show off - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce
Since when does "being in a band" = "showing off"? I guess I gotta go tell a bunch of band people to knock it off, then. Bunch of exhibitionists. - Jandy
start with that Kakki Karl guy, or whatever his name is - Joe "The Enforcer" Pierce

Bumping some old good posts. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Derrick
Song of the South has never been released on home vid. in the US, likely due to the fear it might be seen as racially insensitive to blacks.
Akiva and I were just talking about this a few days ago. Is it available to view anywhere now? - Rochelle from iPhone
There are bootlegs, Rochelle. It was released on laserdisc and in other countries, but not here. The last theatrical release in the U.S. was in 1986. - Derrick
I've never seen the film, and I'm keen on reading the original stories by Joel Chandler Harris. I'd like to think that we can get to the point where we can view material that is racially insensitive WITHOUT all of a sudden blaming people. The movie was made in 1946, it's nearly 2010. Am I going to look at my non-black friends and go on an attack? Unlikely, but perhaps I give people too much credit. - Derrick
Julius Lester has written some interesting pieces about the stories and Harris. He's also re-written some of the stories. I <3 Julius Lester! - Katy S
For those who don't know Julius Lester's work: http://members.authorsguild.net/juliusl... Derrick - did you know that he takes pictures?? - Katy S
I'm not familiar with his work, but will check it out. Thanks. :) - Derrick
He's on a children's literature list serve that I'm on. So are Jane Yolen and Philip Pullman and some other authors. I have to really stifle my fan-girl impulses when they post. - Katy S
Derrick, I'm not so worried about (black?) people blaming anyone for the material. I'm more worried that if this movie becomes available, a million American people will automatically buy it and show it to their young kids, who will absorb the "happy darkies" stuff without realizing what's wrong with it. I'm torn about making complete sets available. There was some kind of WB DVD set... more... - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
I've seen it, and find it amusing that they built an attraction around it (splash mountain) but bury the movie - RAPatton from iPhone
I've never actually seen the whole thing. I would probably buy it if it were available. - Ha3rvey (heavy duty)
Kamilah - I'd be just as worried about adults' reactions to it as kids (for the same reasons) - Katy S
I agree, C. I do think Disney is one of those really overly cautious companies. Remember, the created the Touchstone Pictures umbrella to release movies that strayed outside of the cutesy Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Escape from Witch Mountain films, because we would get them so confused. And I love those crows. - Derrick
Cecily - I've never seen Gone With The Wind, but I suspect I'd have a similar reaction. Dumbo just makes me cringe! I wouldn't censor anything, but I still think about how people react to the films. - Katy S
I'll tell you what movie really made me choke on my diet coke recently. I was watching Heidi with my niece. Somehow, this story that's suppose to take place in Switzerland, looked like it took place in a home that was on a Southern Plantation, complete with a mammy-character. - Katy S
Dumbo and Lady and the Tramp are both questionable. I just think that Song of the South would get much more exposure, especially to children. It doesn't use animals for all of the racial stereotypes like the others. As for Gone with the Wind, I haven't seen it either, but I'd say it's more clearly aimed toward adults. Though I agree, with you, Katy. The adult exposure to Song of trhe South might be almost as problematic... - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
My extensive training with literature and critical examination of it helps me get through the parts that make me cringe. That critical distance thing. Having said that, I'd never give a child a copy of Little House on the Prairie. Just not going to happen. - Katy S
I watch alot of old games shows and I gasp at some of the things they use to say.......... - VALZ says WELL LB!!
I've still got the (original?) 78-RPM set that belonged to my Mom. We used to listen to the stories and songs as kids. "...it's the truth, it's factual; everything is satisfactual!" - ɐ ɯıʞ sıɹɥɔ from iPhone
I used to have that 78 too, but is long gone now - RAPatton from iPhone
Zip a dee doo dah is a great, fun song, but I think that's about all I'll need from that movie, thanks. - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
"Mister Bluebird's on my shoulder..." - Katy S
I loved Song of the South as a kid (Br'er Rabbit is a G). I always saw it as a kind of animated Huck Finn or Tom Sawyer. There was a time when I think not having the movie available was more political than anything. Now, I think it's just hard to market (and to what value? There's not a real way to make ancillary money from Consumer Products from the film). - Jason Toney
Dumbo is coming out on Blu-ray in Feb, FWIW. - Pixie
LOVE Dumbo. I need to pre-order. - Derrick
Animation fans have this discussion all the time. I think WB did a pretty good job handling it in its Golden Collection sets. In the first or second volume, they had an intro you couldn't skip that had Whoopi Goldeberg talking about how some of the cartoons were racist and that although no one was condoning that NOW, they were part of our past and better acknowledged than buried or... more... - Spidra Webster
How odd that you posted this, I just watched this movie last night. lol - aerobroken
It seems to me that any racist ideology in Song of the South would be counteracted for children (like it was with me as a child) by the cultural attitudes of today. It was made in a different time and even kids today look at early WB cartoons and get something completely different from them than kids fro a generation ago did. I hope that someday they release it and let parents decide what is the best course of action for their own children. - Kryptic
Katy, what is wrong with Little House on the Prairie? I don't recall anything bad in it but it's been a long time since I've read it. - Rochelle
It's incredibly racist - even for its time. The Indians are described as grunting savages. Ma quotes that "the only good Indian is a dead Indian" line multiple times through the story. It's really foul. Unless you are prepared to discuss the racism throughout the book with the child, I'd avoid it. If you haven't read it since you were a child, read it now as an adult and try to put aside your fond memories so that you can view it with some critical distance. - Katy S
Also, LHotP is still a popular read-aloud book in many classrooms. I wish it wasn't, because it is often presented uncritically. Imagine hearing the things in that book if you are an American Indian child. - Katy S
I enjoyed imagining I was one of those savages who put up a charade of attacks to hide the true force that was forthcomming, twas not fun being picked on because of that book when I was younger, then I detailed to my peers the history of the Cherokee and Tsali. On the other hand, I actually like LHotP now and I enjoy SotS as well. - Tsali - el Rey de Reyes
Katy the same thing would apply to half of the John Wayne, Davy Crokett movies/books. America has been really slow at learning about other cultures and presenting them in a decent light. I think most of the stuff that's been written/read/etc needs to be put into context sometimes. I think the best thing to do is just continue to show by words and actions that the past isn't the way to treat or portray people - Sir Shuping is just sir
Sir Shuping - I agree. These things should be discussed. The problem is, it rarely is with this particular book. It is taught and read uncritically. I didn't say I'd ban or censor the book, I just said that I wouldn't give it to a kid without discussing these things. Sadly, this isn't done very often. - Katy S
The thing about LHOP is that it's about settlers. It's about people who were "given" land that was taken away from the natives. It's built in to the story. That the characters (somewhat fictionalized versions of real people) called the indigenous people "savages" is only true to what was going on at that time. Teachers, parents, caretakers need to put that stuff in context. http://www.newyorker.com/arts... - Spidra Webster
The success of some children's lit is interesting in that it is often based on what adults remember fondly. Little Black Sambo has never been out of print, despite the racism throughout it. - Katy S
Oh I know you weren't saying ban or censor. But maybe my experiences are prejudiced, but even though I read LHOP, saw movies like Song of the South, Dumbo, etc. I never thought of it as showing me how to treat other people. I learned that from the people around me how others were supposed to be treated. Perhaps because we've lived through all of this turmoil and change in how races/cultures/religions/sexual preferences are treated things stand out a bit more (just my deep thought for the evening :) - Sir Shuping is just sir
Spidra - That's true, but again I would say that this should be discussed with readers. My problem with the use of the text is the uncritical way in which it is used and taught, specifically in classrooms. And, most parents don't discuss these books critically with their kids. They just remember how much they loved it and give it to their children for that reason. - Katy S
I think that's a valid criticism, Katy. - Spidra Webster
I think it's easy for white folks to read these books and say that they didn't affect them (but, did they play cowboys and indians?), but that's like saying that the people of a minority group shouldn't be offended by something rather than letting them decide what is or isn't offensive. My point is, that Little House is just as bad as these other texts and images that have been... more... - Katy S
fwiw, I first read the book as an adult (although I was familiar with the tv show). I expected some racism just because of the time it was written and the attitudes at that time. I didn't expect it to be quite as bad as it is. - Katy S
Oh - Louise Erdrich has been writing a really fantastic series of books to counter LHotP. The first book is titled The Birchbark House. Great book, and the writing is much better than Ingalls'. - Katy S
I'm finding myself obsessed with some stuff where I expect there to be some racial attitudes indicative of the time: Uncle Tom's Cabin, Gone With the Wind, The Confessions of Nat Turner, Sapphira and the Slave Girl, etc. I need to give these all a re-read to give me something to chew on. I always find myself in a curious state when seeing non-black people write about black people. - Derrick
So fascinating. For the record, I hate Gone With the Wind but love Dumbo and recall liking Song of the South, although that was (obviously) years and years ago. My mother read me the Laura Ingalls Wilder books without comment, though I've since gone back to them and seen that they have Problems. She did, however, upon giving me the Little Colonel books, say, "Now, there are things that... more... - laura x
I had a Song of the South album with story/songs from sometime in the 70s, as well as a few other Disney records. Probably acquired at a garage sale. - Eric - 100% Choice Cuts
Walt Disney actually campaigned for the lead actor, James Baskett, to be considered for an Oscar. - Melanie Reed
totally with you on the crows in Dumbo. But, um, yes, i love them. for what it's worth, as a child i saw them as funny, weird crows and funny, weird crows only. It was only when i saw Dumbo again as an adult that I noticed that perhaps they weren't just crows. - edythe
Derrick, I'm glad. Especially in the case of GWTW. I often find people most opposed have not read the book. There is a very pivotal scene that defines freedom and the motivations of one of the lead characters that most people miss. - Melanie Reed
I did not remember that Hattie McDaniel who won Best Supporting Actress for GWTW was also in Song of the South - Melanie Reed
Right now I am grading student essays for Othello. They have to create play review forms for each play and aside from some regurgitation of the text and the events, they do have cover motivation and are encouraged to set up arguments based upon the attitudes of the time which are pertinent to the understanding of the play. My point is that this play is going to also be a touchstone. What do we do about portrayals in literature ? - Melanie Reed
Derrick, Also, my other question is about Joel Chandler Harris who collected the Brer Rabbit stories but did not originate the idea. He is considered a folklorist. Should those stories be preserved or should they be forgotten. Is there something to be lost if they are forgotten? What are your feelings about that? - Melanie Reed
The grandmother points out a "pickaninny" in "A Good Man is Hard to Find." While reading this to my ninth grader--mainly second-generation South Americans (this was in 2000, in Miami)--there was a collective gasp when I read that word. I took that as a good sign. I did not use it as a "teaching moment," however. I said, basically, "this story was written in the American South of 1955.... more... - edythe
Otoh, were we reading The Great Gatsby, I'd have a lot more to say about the depiction of Jews and blacks, as it doesn't have much to do with giving you insight about the book's characters. Similarly, If the part in AGMIHtF was written as, "They drove past a pickaninny," I'd feel differently and perhaps would not have read it to them at all. But then Flannery O'Connor would also be a different writer and... well, you get what I'm saying. Well, I hope you do, anyway. - edythe
Wow, I had never heard the term "pickaninny" before this thread. - Scoble, Alex Scoble
Joey and I had this conversation while waiting in line for Splash Mountain. I would really like to see the movie since I can't remember ever seeing it before (other than the classic zippity-do-dah song). I do think it's kind of funny that people are somewhat against releasing the movie - there are far more offensive things on the interwebs (godhatesfags.com and kkk.com come to mind) - Kyle Prime
I am, clearly, a white woman and, of course, have always been so. That may may make me ignorant with respect to many things, although I have always tried and continue to try to pay attention and to be as aware and as sensitive as I possibly can. I am good at putting myself in other people's shoes and I do try to do it as much as i can and to listen. What I'm trying to say, really quite awkwardly, is that if my attitude above seems shockingly dismissive of the Flannery O'Connor scene, please tell me so. - edythe
Oh, and, Cecily, I very much like your interpretation of Prissy's simplicity being a form of passive resistance! - edythe
Here's what SOTS says to me: that there is courage in horrible circumstances. That there is joy that survives the deepest pain. That humor is stronger than ignorance. And that if you destroy that you let them beat you. - Melanie Reed
And yes, Cecily, that is exactly what Margaret Mitchell was saying in Prissy. :) Besides, don't you just kinda clap and lol when she shuts the lid of the trunk and breaks all those dishes?! lol - Melanie Reed
I watched the Japanese laserdisc version and I found it to be mostly harmless. I understand why it's a sensitive thing because of how the black people are portrayed, as happy slaves, but you have to take it in the context of the time from which it was made. To censor it, kind of goes against the grain of America, in my opinion. We need to remember our past, not cover it up. - Scoble, Alex Scoble
Edythe - that makes sense to me. There's a difference in age groups here. Your 9th graders can process what you said about the text more critically than the age group LHotP is written for (approx. 2nd graders). Plus, if you are examining other texts critically - like Gatsby - it's part of the pedagogy, so there is a connection. Actually, I think LHotP would be a great text to use with middle school and/or high school students to discuss these issues. - Katy S
There is nothing original about evil. It is a corruption of good which is in itself creative. Observing and accurately reporting that corruption does not necessarily arise from creativity. A confession from C. S. Lewis on writing the Screwtape letters: it was one of the most distasteful voices he had to adopt when writing it.. But he did it for a purpose. You can read about it in his afterword of the book - Melanie Reed
I don't have anything to add (besides that when I bought Peter Pan and we watched it my jaw dropped...I guess growing up in the PNW counterbalanced the depictions of Natives that were in that film, because I completely missed that as a child). I read the Brer Rabbit stories when I was a child and I completely missed the subtext. The 'tar baby'...wow. But at the time I had no idea that... more... - joey
And for someone who doesn't have anything to add, I sure do ramble. - joey

Cecily, yes,there are a number of southern writers I appreciate that come to mind in particular Eudora Welty who wrote about living in Mississippi and was inclusive of all the lives she observed. Of her's my favorite is "A Worn Path".

Not true. It was released in the US as a videodisc back in the 1980's. I got a copy ported over to VHS. It's a shame it isn't available in any other format though. It portrays black people as people with dignity and love in my opinion. - Kevin Trotman
I watched this the other night, I can see both sides, but one of the key things I'll always remember is the boy yelling for Uncle Remus while he is in the coma and then Uncle Remus holding his hand and the boy coming to, the love a white boy and a black man can have for one another and the peace they shall build. But that's just me. - Tsali - el Rey de Reyes

Time for a quick poll. Approximately how many FriendFeeders have you met face-to-face?
For me, that number is 3, and I knew them all before I was a user here. - Ben Hanten
13? EDIT: This is based on active FF, not just people who have FF accounts. If everyone I've met with FF accounts, then it goes up to about 50. - Anika
Of FriendFeeders I didn't already know before I got into this mess: three: Josh and Trish Haley, and Eric from CS Techcast. After this week, though, it'll be dozens upon dozens. Thanks, Gnomedex! - Akiva
1 - vijay
Technically, 1. - tehKenny
3 - Two of them I nagged until they joined. One I met yesterday because I was really hungry. - The Amber
Prolly 1, worked with bgolub before he became a FriendFeeder, there are a few I have met that have accounts here but they don't really use FF so I am not likely to count them. - matthew john ernisse
hmm, I'd say around 35, but probably met at least 20 of them prior to FF. - holly #ravingfangirl
Zero. - Simon Cartel
um, why would I want to do that? - Dave Hodson
1, and because of the friend i joined friend feed. LOL@Dave nice doubt - thequark
Dave, then don't answer. That's fine. I think it would be interesting to know. I'm surprised, so far, that so many people only know 0 - 4 people. That's very interesting; kind of like old IRC chats. - Ben Hanten
None, though that is set to change Saturday - Bren from iPhone
~20 or so through various meetups and at SXSW. - Mark Krynsky from iPhone
I dunno...15-ish? - Derrick
@Ben - it was a joke man! - Dave Hodson
5 or 6 not including family members. i think. - Morgan
Of active FriendFeeders, 0. Of people with FF accounts, at least 1. - John (bird whisperer)
active, 2. - Alex Scrivener
It's also interesting to me because I tend to like and comment on almost every item posted by someone I've met face to face. If others are the same, then knowing people IRL would enhance your FF experience. - Ben Hanten
EDIT: starting over and expanding this to include Twitter folks as well since there's a lot of overlap: 21. (2 Jasons, 2 Courtneys, Tina, Gunny, Aden, Haggis, Christian, Ha3rvey, MLx, Wendy, Cliff, Iris, Butternut Squash, Julie, Terry, Eddie, Jeanne, Mark, and Kate.) - Blatantly LB
9 - Shevonne

At least 5 (and none are within a 1000 miles radius of me). - Micah
0 for me unfortunately - Wang Yip
0 so far. hopefully this will change some day. - Joe Silence

0 that I didn't know before coming here. :( - Spidra Webster
Other than people I knew elsewhere, none :( - Brett Kelly from iPhone
None - Rodfather
1. Or 2, if I count my partner with whom I live. ;-) - Absentee
I met 10-15 at meetups in NYC and Boston. - Bruce Lewis
18 (out of 1,967, ~1%) I met two FFers after joining FF. The rest are from college, previous work, Silicon Valley events, and dance. FriendVenn is a great way to scan huge lists. http://ff.deasil.com/friendv... - Mitchell Tsai
zilch - Mel Buckpitt
Pea, Ken, Jason, Gunny, Laura, and Eugene. So 6. 7 if you count my husband. - FFing Enigma
couple hundred probably at various conferences, meetings, churches and friends.. - MB Linder
0 - Tyson Key
11. - edythe
6 - RAPatton from iPod
None. I've only met 2 people I follow on Twitter, and follow them because of that. - Dennis Jernberg
none i'm aware of. - Rob Schieber
1, but in all fairness, I knew him before FriendFeed. - Matthew Horton
A lot of italian FFers, thanks to barcamps and other stuffs not hanged to events. - Roberto from fftogo
6 but they are IRL friends/family. :-) 0 for FFers. - Kol Tregaskes
Just realized that I might have met dozens of FFers face-to-face and not known it because I don't know them! - Absentee
Most the FF-ers I met are not as fanatic in FF use as I am. And besides that: I met them before they started using FF. But if they still count, roundabout 10. ;-) - Ton Zijp
2, but same as Kol, 1 friend, 1 family - Glenn Slaven
If I don't count family, uh...0 - Rahsheen the Dream
1. I knew him before friendfeed. So, I think it does not count. - Faraz Mullick

does anyone know what kind of bird this is? a pigeon? @dendroica / john, maybe? :) - edythe from Bookmarklet
It's a pigeon. Maybe an albino, though pigeons are bred to be all sorts of colors. - John (bird whisperer)
I think its a dove...looks smallish to be a pigeon. http://www.freedigitalphotos.net/images... but John appears to be the expert so you better go with him :D - Shannon - GlassMistress
[lowers binoculars] albino neckless wallhugger. very rare. [raises binoculars to eyes] - Karim
Columba livia is sometimes called a dove and sometimes a pigeon. Because it's been domesticated and bred for various purposes (racing, breeding competitions, weddings, food), it can appear in different sizes and colors, but they're all the same species. There are wild doves like the mourning dove (http://www.flickr.com/photos...), but they're different. - John (bird whisperer)
Looks like a dove to me; the feathers are all soft looking and it's got the same hunch that mourning doves have. - Michael W. May
coo. coo. coo. *poops on nice car below* - Morgan
thanks, guys. :) - edythe
[lowers binoculars] although it could be a *chameleon* neckless wallhugger. you can see how it is trying to match the mottling of its plumage to the stucco wall. [raises binoculars] - Karim
it is clearly pining for the fjords; thus, it must be a parrot. QED. - jacek
Tiffany, all pigeons are doves, but not vice versa. Dove is a whole family of birds. - Ordinarybug Heather
i love you, karim!! :) - edythe
Noah saw this bird a few weeks ago like this outside his apt. He was wondering if it was sick and/or someone's pet who escaped. Might it have been a pet? I thought it would have been more likely to react to him if it was someone's pet. - edythe
Since white pigeons are fairly rare in the wild, it's possible it was released at a wedding or some other event and didn't rejoin the rest of the flock. It doesn't look sick to me, but your friend could probably tell from its behavior (e.g., limping, unable to fly, visible swelling or puss around the eyes, etc). - John (bird whisperer)
it just didn't move or react to him. he felt bad later and thought maybe he should've done something. i was hoping to make him feel better. sounds like it was ok, though. - edythe
If things change for the worse he could always contact a wildlife rehabilitator, though I'm not sure if they take pigeons. - John (bird whisperer)
It let me get incredibly close to it without pecking my eyes out or anything, which made me wonder if it was hurt or sick. It didn't look sick but then again I have no degree in birdology so I couldn't be sure. The next day it was gone and I'm hoping it just got bored hanging out and decided to fly home, etc. - Noah Belson
was it looking for a bust of Pallas? "And the pigeon, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting / on the rusted grate of metal just above my chamber door; " etc. - Karim
