I love the expressive hand gestures on the pic 7th from the end... - Andrew Terry

Kristine Gray
Is Louis a good dancer? - Stephen Mack
Yes, Louis is a very good dancer. He has better rhythm than me and he can sing too. - Kristine Gray
But he only dances to techno. - Kristine Gray
I have heard Louis sing - Jesse Stay
BTW, I have not seen Wicked before, neither has Rebecca. I need to take Rebecca dancing, although I prefer the Swing and ballroom type myself. :-) (that, and not sure I can convince Rebecca to go to a techno club with me) - Jesse Stay
I've tried to get Louis to take a swing/ballroom class with me but he won't. - Kristine Gray
Swing is a lot of fun. I need to get Rebecca lessons though. :-) I used to do the Swing Kids Swing club at BYU the 2 quarters I was there. I was pretty good at one time. - Jesse Stay
What you should do is find a local club that has a free dance night where anyone can come swing dance. Then, just practice with each other, watch what others are doing, and start there. Then if you think you want to learn more you can take lessons. - Jesse Stay
Awesome play. The book is even better. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening from iPhone
You're assuming Louis would go. Ha - Kristine Gray
Slick Foot-thinking of getting the book - Kristine Gray
Louis wouldn't swing dance with me either in Las Vegas - Jesse Stay
I LOVE swing dancing and especially Lindy Hop. It's been AGES since I've been out. I could find out where the cool cats are dancing these days, though. Maybe if I offer to babysit, he'd try it... - Lisa L. Seifert

I caved and bought a Droid. :P
Let me know how you like it. If appple doesn't go to new carriers by the time my contract expires I think I'll go with an android phone. Plus, I like verizon more than AT&T. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening from iPhone
I'll have to come over on of these days to check it out. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening from iPhone
I'm really wrestling with this. It looks like an excellent phone, and I've always said that if the iPhone was available on Verizon, I would have burned out two of them already. - Abstinence-only works!
I've been thinking about it for a while. I almost pulled the trigger the day they come out, but I went back over the plan and didn't like the ~$130/mo price tag. A co-worker got one and I played with it for a bit, and decided I definitely want the hardware. So, I went back and fussed with the plan settings until I got pretty much everything I want for around $90/mo. Not too bad. - donato
Welcome to the fun. :-) I love my Droid. - Jason Huebel
is that battery lid sliding off like Scoble said? - Vezquex: God of FF
It happened to me once. But I was fiddling with the phone. I don't think it's really a problem. - Jason Huebel from Android
Cristo
I'm not a fan of gift cards. They are a ripoff by the stores. Many gift cards lose their value after a short time if not used, and they restrict the receiver to one store.
/takes back Xmas gift cards intended for Cristo - Louis Gray
Louis, those gift cards were for free visits to your blog. :) - Cristo
<reconsiders>... /takes them back anyway - Louis Gray
That's why I like Amazon gift cards...they have none of the limitations of which you speak. - Alex Scoble
I always buy the AMEX ones for people. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
In retail, "breakage" is the percentage of gift cards that are never redeemed. Financially you have to recognize the liability forever, unless the state allows the retailer to start siphoning off the worth of the card over time. The breakage rate in general is astounding. For some types of retailers' gift cards, up to 40% are not redeemed, meaning the retailer gets to keep the cash as profit. - Stephen Mack
I believe CA state law doesn't allow Gift Cards to be devalued... - Ken Gidley
In WA gift cards can't have an expiration date. (I'm also not generally a fan of them, as they're restrictive, unless I know that is where someone shops all of the time.) - Jennifer Dittrich
MVB - The AmEx ones slowly devalue, as well. I think the key in buying gift cards is to make sure that they are from a store (or restaurant) that someone uses regularly. If you buy me a gift card for a place like Cabela's, chances are I'll never use it, and will probably end up giving it away. If you buy me a gift card for WalMart or Outback or something, I'll definitely use it. - Curtiss Grymala
I won't ever buy a credit card gift card. For one thing they charge you a fee when you purchase it and they always seem to have odd rules too. I just don't go there. - Alex Scoble
Please send all unwanted gift cards to me, care of me, 1149 W 190th Street, Suite 1000. Gardena, CA 90248. Thank you. - Morgan Haley
Morgan, you're probably just going to get a pile of poo in the mall now. :) - Cristo
I'm always on the fence with Gift Cards. As Stephen Mack clearly stated, there are many cards that are never redeemed. This could be due to the person lost it, doesn't shop there or always forgets to bring it. I try to give cards to those that I know have use the ones I've given in the past. If I didn't hear about your restaurant experience or find out what you bought, it makes me rethink the following year. - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
BTW- "breakage" is never a term I want to hear from someone at TiVo. I'm still quite happy with my two Lifetime Series 2s (upscaled to 1080i), thank you very much.... :-) - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
I cannot agree more. Gift cards are just a way to get out more cash out of your pocket. - ashish
Gift cards scream "I'm socially responsible enough to know I need to get you a gift at this point in time, but here, you pick it out, I can't be bothered." - SAM
Why is it socially responsible to give people things at particular points in time? Something is seriously wrong with a society that depends on consumerism to thrive. - Cristo
Convention? i.e. Birthday, Christmas ect... I think gift cards are cop outs at these times... gift cards given randomly=awesome. - SAM
Why are we required to give gifts for birthdays and at Christmas? We have other conventions in society too, like when cigarette smokers their leave butts on the sidewalk when they're done with them. - Cristo
I think gift giving can be a symbolic/thought filled/beautiful gesture even if, and sometimes especially when tied into a cultural convention. I just think the style/extravagance/consumerism aspect has gone too far... as we Americans and humans in general have a tendency to do. - SAM
I think that cigarettes on a sidewalk make for nice decoration Cristo, thank you very much - Holden Page
I have another convention that I've been following. It's called Craiglisting all the gifts that people give me and not buying stuff for people they don't need or want. - Cristo
Are you completely anti-gift Cristo? If so, why? - SAM
+1 SAM. These gestures are done with special yearly occasions because unfortunately we don't do them everyday or very rarely for no reason. So, it's a lazy way for us to remind yourself that you are appreciative of that person for all those times you never acknowledged it throughout the year. - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
SAM, no. I give lots of gifts, but I rarely do it when I'm "suppose to." The reason I don't like receiving gifts unless it's something I really want, is because it creates extra work for me. This is more acute of late as I've been getting rid of stuff for the last three years thats accumulated over a lifetime. I also don't like the waste of natural resources and pollution that are caused by all the consumerism when it's unnecessary. - Cristo
I agree on the "receiving gifts unless it's something I really want" part. That's why I personally like Gift Cards given to me (but from specific places). - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
Anybody ever say "I already have this" or "look, my 50th Hawaiian shirt" while sitting around the Christmas tree? But my absolute favorite gifts are the ones engraved with your name, with your birthday or anniversary, and maybe your social security number, just to make sure you can't get rid of it. :) - Cristo
Yes, I have admittedly. It's hard not to show disgust but some people are just horrible gift givers and they just don't get it. BUT it's the thought that counts even though I'd rather of had no gift than the one actually given (year after year). People know I'm picky, I sense you are too but their are still people who it's not clicked. Try to open that one gift up with a smile, get rid of the gift later. - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
I like a lot of what you and Mark are saying here... For me... gifts=good if they a) have thought behind them b) hit the target - i.e. are actually useful/appreciated by that person. Otherwise, i'd rather do without as well. Bad gifts to me just say someone doesn't really know me or has picked something up in haste to just go through the holiday motions = useless consumerism. What are some great gifts though? What's the best one you've ever gotten? - SAM
+1 Ken! Fun tip: if you have an expired gift certificate, take it on a CA vacation or give it to a friend in CA. You can use them here. - Lo
A Snow Blower. Why? It wasn't because it was expensive. The December before I had just moved into my first house. As a joke, I left on my parent's answering machine a message that apparently I sung "All I want for Christmas is a Snow Blower" during a major snow storm after shoveling. Naturally I completely forgot about this event. The next year, they got me one and I didn't expect it.... more... - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
The only thing that comes to mind in recent years is leather driving gloves and a case of wine (Opolo) I liked. When I was a kid, there were lots of gifts I loved. E.g. Flexible Flyer sled, G.I. Joe stuff, bike, trampoline, swing set. - Cristo
Cristo, I wish everyone had your attitude about gifts! - Lo
I am happy to get anything............ - VAL D.
It doesn't take a lot of money to come up with the perfect gift. What it takes is thought, and that thought is easy when you really care about someone. If I told you the best gift I ever got wasn't for me and it consisted of a couple of used books, a bag of rice, some chopsticks, ginger, soy sauce, etc; would you believe me? http://cranialsoup.blogspot.com/2006... - April Russo (app103)
In Germany per law gift cards are good for X years no matter what the gift card says about its expiry date (e.g. minimum 2 years, not sure exactly). Not every store owner knows this law though, and service is often bad in Germany, so good luck investing energy to stand up for your right :) - Philipp Lenssen
Yeah, gift cards don't lose value in CA. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening from iPhone
Even if they don't lose value, a huge percentage are never redeemed -- lost, stolen, or stuck away somewhere, possibly because the recipient has no nearby locations. - Stephen Mack from iPhone
April: "What it takes is thought, and that thought is easy when you really care about someone. " -- Thought is rarely easy for me these days. Figuring out what people want that they don't already have seems like an unnecessary waste of time unless I'm an expert at something they are not. - Cristo
And "the thought" in my case, is not to give me anything. That is the thought I am most appreciative of. - Cristo
Would Jesus have wanted Christmas gifts? - Cristo
@Cristo That's the thing, you don't have to "figure it out". When you care about someone, they are in your thoughts when you are apart. Those thoughts will guide you if you let them. You will see (or hear) things that remind you of them, constantly. That is where the gift ideas come from. Buy whatever makes you think of them. I can't shop for people I don't care about. It's forced... more... - April Russo (app103)
April, it's good you know how every other person thinks and feels. I must be from an alien race. - Cristo
My gifts are not based on what they think and feel. I give from my thoughts and feelings. - April Russo (app103)
So do I. Which is why I don't subscribe to corporate calls for gift giving at specified times of the year. - Cristo
It took a long time to get my husband to understand what I was talking about and stop giving me cash for Christmas. I got really tired of it one year and handed him back the cash and sent him out and told him to spend it on anything and everything that reminded him of me. He never made it past the supermarket on the corner and I ended up with some odd gifts, but it showed me what was... more... - April Russo (app103)
The gift I give my wife is helping to clean out all the crap people have given us. It's the thought that counts, and the thought should be "Don't waste resources and fill people's living spaces up with crap." - Cristo
If you read the blog post I linked to, you would have seen that the most thoughtful gift I was referring to was when someone made my daughter smile, by applying the same gift giving principles I was talking about. He cared about me, and therefore listened to me, and got to know my daughter through me. He sent her a gift that was so perfect for her, yet none of her real life friends knew... more... - April Russo (app103)
April, I don't remember if I read your blog post. My general principle stands. Are there exceptions? Probably. But the reality is that as a macro phenomenon, it's not a net good. And sorry if I didn't read your blog post, but I'm not too into blogs. I'm on FriendFeed for the conversation, and not much else. - Cristo
Also, why was your husband giving you cash as a gift? Seems weird. My wife buys whatever she wants, so the only time I need to give her cash is if she hasn't gone to the ATM lately. - Cristo
Maybe I come from a different world than you. There are no ATM machines and we rarely ever have money in our pockets. I usually don't get what I need, nevermind what I want. I usually have to make due with whatever we have and make it work in ways it was never intended. - April Russo (app103)
Um, okay. If you are poor and live somewhere that is technology repressed, I feel for you. But shouldn't that motivate you to save or work towards changing that position? It doesn't seem like a good argument for the consumeristic gift-giving I'm arguing against. - Cristo
My gift giving usually isn't very consumerist and I am frugal to a fault. And I am working to change that position I am in, but currently we are in a very deep hole and it is taking a long time for me to dig us out of it. If you want to help, I have some software on my site you can try, and if you like it you can donate what you think the software is worth. http://appsapps.info - April Russo (app103)

joey
I think I'm too sensitive to be on FF anymore. Not sure if this will pass or not.
It's not 'just the Internet' for me anymore. It's like a family and I keep finding that I've been blocked or unsubscribed from by people that I thought I had friendships with or at least some cordiality. My life is in a chaotic place right now and I can't help but wonder what I did wrong and why no one is telling me. It's the same thing everywhere I go and I feel like maybe hermitage is a better life for me right now. - joey
Private feed, but don't leave, please - RAPatton from iPhone
Ah, I meant to disable comments but you were too fast. - joey
Yeah, please don't leave, Joey. - Alex Scoble
Don't leave. :( - Michelle Martinez
Don't leave!, but I know exactly what you mean, a lot of FriendFeeders I care about a lot and it does sting when stuff like that happens. - Holden Page
I'm not talking about leaving and I didn't mean it to be construed as such. It was more an observation of my current mental state and how sensitive I'm feeling. And I don't want my feed to turn into nothing but wahh wahh. Like this. - joey
But can you stand to be on FF any less? I'd bet not. ;) Don't go! - Craig Eddy
This too shall pass. Take a break but don't go. Some FriendFeeders can be harsh and not know it, I just ignore them. - AJ Batac
boy(i mean girl), you got quite some fans if you ask me :) - Halit Okumus
I don't want anybody leaving from friendfeed. - ashish
I didn't say I was leaving, just that I'm too sensitive right now. - joey
I've felt like that. And then I stepped away, and read a book. Or did some writing. Or took some time out for me. It's good to unplug. Sometimes we're too plugged in. I'd be awful sad to see you go, but I can respect it if you do. - Derrick
I think it feels worse because I'm not sure what to step away to right now. I need to work on that and then I can probably get back to my normal self. - joey
Cut back. Do more browsing on other services. Don't take things too seriously here. Its best to just step away if it gets to hurt too much. - CW™
Google Reader? Books? Library's? Movies? Parks? Local Theatre group? - CW™
*can't imagine blocking joey* - Joe Silence is not dead
CWs, good idea. I've been reading but I haven't gotten out of the house much because I've had the flu. So I'm just feeling isolated and crummy all around and I'm ultra-sensitive to things here because as I said it feels like my extended family. - joey
Joe, that sounds like a challenge! - joey
As one who has rhino-tough skin and a cement-head to go with it, Joey, even I have to unplug once in a while. You shouldn't feel bad about it. You need to do what's good for you. If stepping away from the keyboard and finding out what makes you happy is what you need, then go and recharge your batteries. Just know that we're still here for you, love. :) - Steven Perez
Find a local theatre or school that needs some help. Volunteer there a few hours a week. - CW™
I just joined the a theatre group to help out when I have time. Need to do something enjoyable, creative and something that has nothing to do with computers. ;) - CW™
CW, I definitely plan on doing that when I'm officially unemployed. I have some plans but I'm going to need variety and ideas to help keep myself active and social. Fall/Winter in Seattle can be hard. What do you do with the theatre group? - joey
CW said "Cut back. Do more browsing on other services."... I think Scoble is pushing Ning this week, he's like the pusher man. - Ed Millard
I heart joey. That is all. - Jim Hearts FF
Thanks, Steven. I need to learn what recharges my batteries at this point in my life ;) That's more the crux of my issue. - joey
Right now.. make calls. Help move scenery in, help build.. but there are other things like make the sets, props, costumes. Stage hand stuff or back end admin things. - CW™
It might help to keep a private journal for a little bit too, when I have a lot of complicated feelings I am upset over I just kind of spew it wherever, I finally started directing most of it into an offline word file. :P - Dragon Goldmaple
That's really cool. A friend of mine used to work with a youth theatre; I'll have to see if they have any volunteer positions. - joey
Andrea, that is a brilliant idea. I haven't done that for a while but that will save FF from my emo-ness and help me sort through my emotions. Plus, maybe I can publish it and it will be the next Twilight!!!11 - joey
I have to admit, there are a few people here who I would be disappointed if they unsubbed me. As for the rest of you... :-P (just kidding, of course) - Jason Huebel
other services I mean are like other forums for things your interested in... Games? Legos? Knitting? Militia Baby Monitoring services.. . - CW™
Hi Joey. New subscriber here. I have to just ignore a lot of what happens and take a break when things are affecting my emotional state. That's particularly hard online since I use FF to escape RL. - Greg GuitarBuster
Joey, I think you're a wonderful part of the community here. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening from iPhone
*hugs* Please understand, Joey, when someone blocks you it's about THEM, not about you. That said, if you're feeling prickly about FF, taking a breather is probably a good idea. - vicster
vicster, that's true but I tend to assume that I did something to offend them and as I've posted earlier, I want to learn from my mistakes and things that I do that hurt others. I end up agonizing over what I've done wrong. I have social anxiety issues, heh. I'm not going to leave or anything, just musing that right now I'm definitely feeling over-sensitive. - joey
Ya know its the Holiday Season. Your local city might be having a Holiday events and need volunteers. With leaving your company you could do some real fun work and see the benefit soon. - CW™
ppl can be asshats anywhere. don't let the bastards get you down. sanity breaks are normal and healthy. i, and many others, would be terribly bummed out if you disappeared from FF. - Joe Silence is not dead
Joey, this was the reason why I left FF for a bit. Certain people unsubbed from me and I didn't know why. I figured out that I just needed to get away before I let that behavior get to me. At the end of the day, it IS them, not you. But you need to take care of YOU, and not let what anyone's opinion or actions get to you. - Helen Sventitsky
joey, I won't claim to know *exactly* how you're feeling, but I spent so many years of my life blaming myself whenever someone I was friends with (or thought I was) suddenly stopped speaking to me. I'm an extremely sensitive (and shy) person. Being unsubbed/blocked/not spoken to, would devastate me and I always blamed myself. - vicster
If you have family/friends to stay with, Pasadena Rose Parade is building floats... http://www.tournamentofroses.com/events... - CW™
Yeah, take a break. It'll do you some good. But come back soon if you do take a break because I'd really, really miss you. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)

joey, this is EXACTLY how I was feeling when I did that confusing thing of creating a 2nd account. And I know people didn't really understand why I did it, but it really helped. I started from scratch and I locked my account. I certainly didn't do it with the aim of alienating people but I figured it was that or leaving. And I didn't really wanna leave. Do what feels right but if you have the patience for it, maybe tweak how you're using the service and see if that helps. - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle

I think your first comment after the post says it all. Just like a real family, your internet family is filled with misunderstandings, disagreements, disappointments, and differing moods as well as with thrills, joys, discoveries, and celebrations. We can't control what anyone else does IRL or on the net, just what we do and how we respond. You're not doing anything wrong. - Anne Bouey
I think you are doing just fine - haven't blocked, banned, or otherwise tuned you out. - Dan Morrill AKA Techwag

maybe this is the last straw for you? i mean there might be other stuff happening in your life right now which you can't change but you have the option of leaving or not leaving ff - i think we've probably all experienced what you have - i know the feeling but haven't quit - i've blocked some "friends" who never responded to my posts and some who have but in a very negative way - it... more... - sally stokhamer
I certainly hope you don't leave. - Jason Huebel
Sally, it looks like you're only subscribed to 9 people. I have 410 subscriptions and I'm still way neglectful and behind on mine. If you want engagement on your feed, you should definitely increase the number of people you interact with. - joey
IF ONE MORE PERSON TELLS ME NOT TO LEAVE, I'M LEAVING! ;P - joey
And by that I mean that this post was in no way meant to be about me wanting to leave (I don't). I was just making an observation about how I'm feeling too sensitive and thin-skinned for FriendFeed these days. And for going to work, and interacting with offline friends on FB, etc. An observation of my character and mental state and how emo I am right now. - joey
*hugs* It always helps to vent a little. We've all been a little emo at one point or another in our lives. - Jason Huebel

DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
Let's all publicly love each other for a bit. Say something nice about another friendfeeder.
Derrick is really cute in person, and he's funny as hell. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
Nakachi is the bringer of words that brighten every day. - LogEx
I like that one, Logical Extremes. Again, the ability to like individual comments or posts would be good here. On topic, Ophelia, who is not that active on friendfeed but filters here anyway, is very good with words. Her updates both entertain and inspire me. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
Monique posts something that makes me smile or chuckle just about every day she's active - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
FFing Enigma (aka Tina) is articulate, witty, and passionate. - Glen Campbell
RAPatton might be the best dad i've ever read about (my dad excluded of course) - Steve C
I still love Anika's avatar. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
I have to pick one? - Abstinence-only works!
Nope. You can do it as many times as you like. For instance, I like how ha3rvey is funny and just a genuinely nice guy. :) - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
Akiva's great pictures of Babby Audrey and Rochelle always make me smile (technically that was just about one person... sorta...) :D - Her Lindsay-ness
"i18n" is short for "internationalization", i+<18 letters>+n. By that schema, i80and saved us all a lot of screen real estate. - DGentry
What can I say about one person? Jason Toney's posts always elicit wonder and insight. RAPatton, I feel like is just full of awesome with his insight and approach to things. Haggis is a barrel of laughs. Steven Perez (when he's not fighting with conservatives) has spawned his own catchphrase. Nicholas K. is just about the most awesome single dad I've seen in a long time. Tina and... more... - Derrick
Victor Ganata is extremely intelligent, empathetic and articulate. He has always been exceptional in understanding others whether he agrees or disagrees with an opinion, and he always treats everyone with the utmost of respect. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
Jonathan Hardesty is funny and wants to have my babies. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I wish I could call everyone out. If we interact here on FF, take it on faith that I pretty much love you. - Derrick
You know me, I can't ever pick one person so I will simply say that every single person I subscribe to is smart, interesting, funny and make being on this crazy little site damn entertaining. Those that I've been lucky enough to get to know beyond the site prove to me every day that everyone who has ever said only weirdos and stalkers are online are just smoking crack. - ♥patricia♥
I'm with you there, Derrick. There are so many people here who are funny, smart, interesting, entertaining, etc. There are even a couple who make me blush. NOT NAMING ANY NAMES. And then there's that cilantro dude. - Abstinence-only works!
Steven Perez is a funny guy, and can cheer me up when I'm down. - Chris, Taskerrific Guy
My first public skype call was with Tad, Glen and the Amber - a lovely conversation with great people. Tad was bold enough to live stream his workstation software install expedition and is a friend to all; Glen is chalk full of incisive wit and has an easy going conversational style; and the Amber was open enough to admit she's shy but worked up the courage to get on the call anyway. Like I said, great people, and quite representative of all the good people in the land of friendfeed. - Micah Wittman
Derrick tells the truth! There's so many awesome people I can't choose just one. - Rodfather
Anika Malone is as straight a shooter as there ever has been She will always tell you the truth about what she thinks. I find that to be a quality many people could use more of, and I respect her, and love her for it. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
I can't believe that there are people I'm not subbed too. - Derrick
Shevonne is a hottie, and not because she is nice to look at. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Damn, Amber. LOL - Derrick
I love how Amber unabashedly states things. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
I wrote in my 25 things that one of my laments in life is finding a woman who challenges me mentally. Tina does just that. With aplomb. There have been countless times that I was sure of myself and she will make a comment that causes me to completely rethink the issue entirely. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
Louis Gray got me to think about just being myself and not allowing the tech heavy side of FF to intimidate me. - Derrick
Michael W May and RAPatton have the best tastes in music I've ever seen in my life, I applaud and covet their music collection. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Derrick and Mona and Akiva and Rochelle and Jandy and many of you make me laugh every day. - Louis Gray
Derrick is the shizzle, treated me like an old friend. That's one of 500 nice things I have to say about other Friendfeeders. - Eric @ CS Techcast
Rachel Fox takes outstanding pictures. - Louis Gray
My little pea... fierce as a woozle, indeed! So quiet and unassuming... But so poignant at exactly the right moment. The exactly right phrase to every situation. If she can' brighten your mood, nobody else can, either. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
Johnny is just plain awesome - Amber, Random Time Lord
DYSP! Steven and I disagree here and there but in the end I absolutely admire his sense of humor and his passion. A truly A-Lister here on Friendfeed. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
Alex Scoble, Cristo, Chris White and Thomas Hawk vigorously defend their views, but never take it (or make it) personal. - Kevin Fox
Whew... Only 642 more to go... - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
I love all of you here making my day brighter :) - BeeLing
Thomas Hawk makes me want to be a better photographer. - Abstinence-only works!
Derrick and Monique would be my road dawgs if we lived in the same city - Amber, Random Time Lord
Robert Scoble is on a mission to close down every other social network. - Louis Gray
Tad is fun to chat with, even during the awkward moments - Amber, Random Time Lord
I love the fact that Rochelle always likes the same stuff I like. And that Akiva and I both grew up in southeast Texas. - Glen Campbell
I think, most of all, Derrick has redefined what it means to be yourself. I have had the distinct honor of meeting him and what you see here is Derrick. He shares his joys with us, which is easy, but he also shares his pain with us. I must say that I am jealous of his ability to be open, and I admire him immensely. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
I love everyone who gives me a reason to drop my pants... that and Josh Haley. - Johnny Worthington
I love johnny dropping his pants....o_O - WorldofHiglet
Pea has a lovely voice and makes days better. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Bow to Joe Pierce and his movie prowess. - Amber, Random Time Lord
*drops pants* - Johnny Worthington
edythe, Morton, and Kol for liking so much, they allow everyone to notice each other. - Rodfather
I can't thank April Russo enough for all the help she has given me here at Friend Feed. She is awesome in my book. - Brent - Long Live Rock
I'd like to know how it Is I'm seem to be commenting right around the time Johnny is droppin' Pants? - Brent - Long Live Rock
Way too many good things to say about way too many people - I don't want to leave the island - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
Anna and Rodfather are great for liking the same random crap I do. - Amber, Random Time Lord
James (Tsali) you win for putting up with me all this time. Rah for being Rah. Anika for cutting to the quick in a conversation. And etc... you know you rock if I follow you. - Amber, Random Time Lord
I guess what I am saying is there are roughly a squillion people on Frienfeed of whom I am in awe and also whom I have the most respect. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo
i like jim janotti. he's cool. - Trish Haley
i dig vijay and his love of all things japanese is fun. - Trish Haley
johnny worthington and his family are wicked beautiful. - Trish Haley
So are the Haleys! - Johnny Worthington
rochelle and akiva are nice in person and on FF... - Trish Haley
i would trust pea and trish r to babysit zoe. (that's saying a lot) - Trish Haley
aww. I would love to babysit Zoe! That means a lot, thank you. - ♥patricia♥
You are all awesome, but bonus props to Tina (aka) for consistently being the voice of reason in every conversation, to Derrick for being Derrick, Jandy for keeping it real, and Chris Baskind for bringing the issues, Kol Tregastes for non-stop cool stuff...man, I'm realizing I could go on...what an amazing community :-D - Louis Simoneau
Mattie Kenny is the Dulcinea to my Don Quixote. - Steven Perez
3 of you are awesome for donating to the cause of FFundercats recently. - Josh Haley
i like the conversations with katie about books. i like holly because she's a librarian and helped me with a geek problem. shevonne is down to earth and makes me want to buy boots. - Trish Haley
Holly is sweet and nice. - Steven Perez
WorldofHiglet is the Slayer. What else need be said? - Steven Perez
Josh Haley RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLES!!! - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Actually, many of the people in this thread are in my "FF Favorites" list - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Every time something mildly bad happens I think to myself "DAMN YOU STEVEN PEREZ!" (hey, I think that's something nice to say about him ;) - Alejandro
darren heydon is good for warm fuzzies. - Trish Haley
I can't pick out one specific person. I can name a few names, but there's a specific reason why I am subscribed to every person I am subscribed to. Jandy and Lindsey all kinds of rock, fellow geek chic - so they have to. :P Johnny keeps me cracking up. Zee is my boy for sure, we'd make a ton of trouble if we lived near each other. Monique is straight up, which is win. I can't keep naming people...it would...take up way too much time. I am sure I will though. - Candace
anika converted me to munchos... yum! - Trish Haley
joey is charming. Helen is real. Penguin is adorable. - Laura Norvig
Anika has wonderful, curious kids. - John E. Bredehoft
Outsanity is one funny motherfucker - €€€€€€€€
Parth has a wonderful soul. Abby makes me giggle. Carlos and Cee Bee hotties who post some interesting material. Laura Botts and Jim's banter gives me happy feelings all day. Everyone I'm subbed to rocks. That's why I'm subbed to them. - Anika
Robert Scoble was the first person I heard mention FriendFeed. - Abstinence-only works!
High-five to Leather Donut for bringing us some tits and ass *thumbs up* - €€€€€€€€
oh, it would be so hard to list them all. FF is full of lots of interesting, hilarious, entertaining, and just outstanding individuals.that I look forward to interacting with, many of whom have already been mentioned. yes, even that cilantro lover ;) There's also a fantastic bunch of librarians who hang out here and make me proud to call myself a librarian. yeah, we kinda rule. :) - holly
Holly is right. I *adore* my collection of librarians here. - Anika
Michael W. May for his taste in music, Abby Martin for her exceptional good taste in movies (and being a great mother), Håkan and Rutger for their photos and Robert Scoble for the geek stuff. And Esther for being both sweet and smart. But all of the people I sub to are people that brighten my day! - Baard @ Pixum
MWM and RAP and Haggis for the music mindshare, Tad and Steven Perez and Josh Haley and Worthington for cracking me the HELL up, Derrick for being Derrick so awesomely, Anika and Krynsky and Amani and other LA peeps for helping me learn the city, Abby and Joe Pierce and Logical Extremes and others for the fab movie convos, Louis Gray for apparently paying more attention to me than I... more... - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
I'm just really happy to have a great internet family. :) That's what makes FRIENDFeed so awesome. - Internet's Tad
to all ppl i follow, thankyou for sharing with me too, :) - chaz2b
I feel me some Abby Martin especially b/c of her passion for sports and movies ... Jandy for not seeing me stalk her when she was drunk posting at the show ... Shey for being the first cool Canadian I have ever met ... Mona for laughing at me when i asked for advice (and then giving me good advice) ... Anika for opening up her home ... Shevonne for being a fly girl with some fire ... I'll continue in a bit - Amani
I´ll add some love for Derrick as well b/c he was the first friendfeeder to take me under his wing and show me the ropes here. BUT there has since become a handful or two more that define my good friendfeed experience. Intelligence, humour and warmth is abundant amongst you all, so thanks. - Thomas Bøhm
Amani, were you for serious there? - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
Mona is incredibly thoughtful and considerate of others, not to mention AWESOME!! - Rachel Lea Fox
Agree with Holly and Anika - my librarian peeps here are amazing. And there's so many of us! - Laura Norvig
Yolanda always makes me smile. MWM and Tina are always helpful, caring, and knowledgeable. Anika is just awesome, especially her smile. Steven's singing is great. Outsanity & Tad always make me laugh (MVB often, too). Alex & Chris B. make me think. Derrick makes me feel. Jemm & Nia provide so many late night smiles. I appreciate Katie for getting me reading more, and Lindsay for getting... more... - Alix Whitmire
Jandy, I will never tell ... - Amani
thanks for letting me hang out with you Friendfeeders(all of you) it's an honor and lots of fun! - Dobromir Hadzhiev
Steve C. always makes me laugh, ALWAYS. plus everyone else mentioned here is truly awesome as well :) - Kelly
Sorry, I can't say anything at the moment because I'm still enjoying everyone's warmth from Jandy's group hug - Mark Krynsky
It's hard to pick anyone out because my total FF is made up of so many brilliant people: funny, witty, acerbic, insightful, mind-blowing, thrusting, truth-seekers, provocative, timelords (okay, there might only be one of them...). I love the tech, the LOLs (and the LOLcats), the debates, the discussions, the shared problems, the glimpses into others' lives....And Monique, you have started one of my favourite threads so special props to you. - WorldofHiglet
Monique is a clever woman to kick off such a good thread - RAPatton
Josh and Trish and Tina and Yolanda and Derrick and DYSP Steven make me smile and laugh when I need it. Johnny Worthington always hears when I post an "OMG help me!" kind of thing, and he usually responds with the most absurd and sweet message. Also, he has haiku battles with me, which is all kinds of WIN. Mark W and Fierce Lindsay make me smile, and Mark VandenBerg makes me LOL. And there are so many other sweet and funny and clever people who fill my day here on FriendFeed... thank you to everyone! - Ladybug Heather
AKA Tina is really good at putting up with my silly e-crish. - teh Dork Knight
I love the wit of many but must say MVB can make me spit drinks at the glance of his posts. - Janet
I don't even know where to begin. There are so many people who I love for different reasons. Hmmm..My LAers (Derrick, Amani, Derrick, Anika, Monique, Edythe) because they are always cooler than cool. My New Yorkers (Mona and Cee Bee) because they bring the versatility. My mothers (Abby, Rochelle, Jen, Katie) because they always remind me how great is it to be a mom. RAPatton because... more... - Shevonne
That's OK, Shevonne. I'm sure it will come to you. :D - Steven Perez from IM
You see....Steven Perez because he's funny as hell, and then there is Yolanda cause she is one of the sweetest EVER. Ugghhh too many. This is like giving an acceptance speech. =D - Shevonne
Not me! I was talking about Mike Nayyar. He's so lonely in his dumpster. :D - Steven Perez from IM
I love all of you! - joey
I enjoy everyone, but like Thomas Hawk's photos and philosophies the most, and learn more from Louis Gray than anyone else. - jcunwired
Returning the love to Amani and Abby -- you guys are two of the most honest and kindest souls on FF. Others: RAPatton probably doesn't have a single mean bone in him (ok, poor choice of words there), I could watch Dobromir's feed all day long, Shevonne is a ray of FF sunshine, Akiva is just flat out funny - Shey, Jamaican of FF
There are so many people here that make being here worthwhile that I cannot single out just one. You guys all rock in your own special ways. - Alex Scoble
I LOVE ROBERT SCOBLE! ~ just not in that way. Not that there's anything wrong with that. - sofarsoShawn
Awww thanks Shey! My favorite Jamaican. There is Pea, my fellow DCer who is one of the most genuine peeps up in here! - Shevonne
I love interacting with all the smart, funny FFolks on here! Too many to name, but among my favorites are: Lindsey (the Fierce), Rochelle/Akiva/Audrey, Derrick, Ladybug and Scott, Jim J, RAPatton, Tina (the Enigmatic)... You all rock my world! - DO ANYBODY NO Laura B.
ceebee and RAPatton post the most interesting stuff. and even if he wasn't my boo, i'd still be all up in JT's feed for his pop culture and politics mix. love their stuff - tiffany
M F has a great eye for great eye candy. - Mark H
there are many friendfeeders i feel particularly warmly to because something of their inner self is always coming out: Michael W. May (who has always been at the top of the list), Morton Fox, Anika/Faboo Mama, Yolanda, rap, Cecily, Tad, Akiva, Rochelle, Lindsey, Lindsay D., Beeling, Rodfather, Ginger Makela, Mark Trapp, Ceebee, Shevonne, Abby Martin, Jandy, Zach Landes, Nathan Rein,... more... - edythe
The community / user base of friendfeed is one of the biggest reasons that these days, I'm spending more time on friendfeed versus twitter. I love you all, even the people that annoy me from time to time. - Jeremy
and even yuvi, despite the fact that he used to call me Old Woman. :) and Donna Mugavero and Joanmarie and Michelle Martinez... and Silpol (now A.T.) and oh my gosh PARTH!!!! :) - edythe
and oh my gosh Shey and his jaw-droppingly lovely wife Jasmin... i like Robert Scoble, too, because he always seems upfront to me and never mean. - edythe
Additions - Cee Bee for highest quality posts consistently, Ebrahimi for pictures and translating squiggly for me, Iain for celebrity without celebrity tude, Jessie and Soup most socially conscious posts, Tina for being FF spirit leader, Lindsey online 24hours day, Anne and Jim for getting me here. :) - Steve C
I 'like' Tyson Key! And a bow toward Trish Haley, thanks for making me blush. Speaking of Haleys, Trish, Josh, and Morgan have all become favorites of mine. MVB makes me laugh like a fool, as does relative newbie Valley... he is one funny dude! Gosh, all these names are coming to mind! I'll probably have to comment more later. But for this go-round I will close by saying... if Carmen ever stops posting those daily mug shots, I'm going offline! - Jim Hearts FF
Oh, and to Monique who I guess I am not subsribed to... you completely win for putting up this post. What an excellent, excellent gift to the community! - Jim Hearts FF
Mona has gorgeous legs! :) - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening
I gotta' send some love out to the original band of hooligans who got me hooked on FF: edythe, RAP, Brandon, MWM, Louis Gray & Robert Scoble. You guys filled my world with gobs of geekiness and great interaction on SO MANY different levels. Thanks for making my addiction to FF possible. Of course, now there are so many, many, many others who help to keep me here. I can't even begin to name you all. - Lisa L. Seifert
PS: Thanks for putting up with my Twitter-heavy stream while I'm in school for this year. Eventually, I'll have time to interact more again. xoxo - Lisa L. Seifert
Alix is a wonderful caring wife who tolerates me and my annoying sleeping/eating/battlestar watching habits. I is lucky. - Shawn Whitmire
I love Akiva for bringing the comedy and the pain. I love Derrick for being as real in the OSH parking lot as he is on FF. I love Monique for being the Pied Piper of the interwebz and helping me recover my sanity. I love James for being so gently poetic. I love Rahsheen for the soft porn videos he always takes in bed. I love Johnny Worthington for being such a cuddle muffin of hair and vulgarity. I love Steven Perez for being a quicker wit than me and nicer than me all at once. - nakachi
I love Kaia for the name Baronnes Von Cut A Bitch. I love Robin (bcultural) for the science and the nation building. I love Logical Extremes and Rodfather for their quiet affirmations that never go unnoticed. I love Helen for the virtual daps she gives me whether I'm flying or firing. I love Anna Haro for all the little hearts she sends my way <3 to you, too, honey girl. - nakachi
It would take too long for me to put all my 328 subscriptions in here! If I'm following you, rest assured that you and your content matter to me. :) - DO ANYBODY NO Laura B.
I love Rochelle 'cause momminess becomes her. And I love YOU! - nakachi
Nakachi's Facebook status updates blow my mind - Rodfather
I love this thread. We need an effing FF CONVENTION. - Derrick
This past week has not been a very good one for me and I might have lost it completely if it hadn't been for Johnny, Steven and Derrick for all dropping their pants for me. I love that there are people on here, that I have never met, that care enough to make me laugh when I am feeling way crappy. <3 And of course there are more, just giving props to those that made me feel better this week :) MWAH! - Penny
Nice Thought Monique - Two thumbs up. - Brent - Long Live Rock
Also, Nia for her beautiful photos and Mo for making me laugh too :) - Penny
I'm ready for more. I love Nia for her kindness and her pictures. I love me some g.warbucks 'cause she's brilliant AND pretty to look at. I love tiffany for sharing the good, the bad and the tipsy. I love Chris Weige for keeping art on my mind. I love that the people who subscribe to me give a damn about what I have to say enough to take the time to read me. I'm grateful. - nakachi from fftogo
I had no idea when I started this thread that it would blow up like this. I think this is a clear example of the value of friendfeed: the relationships we build. Sure, we have differing interests, politics, social situations and opinons, but at the end of the day, what we come here for are the people. No one exists in a vacuum, and if they did, they probably wouldn't have a friendfeed... more... - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
Shut up, bitch. - Derrick
Just playin'. :) - Derrick
Best two comments ever. - Akiva Moskovitz
It is hard to pick a single person but as stated...you all bring me much needed laughter. I especially LOVE the ladies room girls - you bring the essence of love. Thank you so much. - Janet
Personally, I think Akiva Moskovitz rocks. He's one of the main reasons why I use FriendFeed. If it weren't for him, I probably wouldn't even be here. - Akiva Moskovitz
Yeah, probably not. - Christopher Harley
Can I just say I love you all?? - Katie: Witch Of The West
Monique is all kinds of sexy. From all shy and flirty to 'oh my!' and dirty! Me likes the Mo'! - Morgan Haley
Kaia is the bee's knees because she changes her name to the funniest stuff. - Ms. G.Warbucks IYN
Monique rocks because she sings off-key in supermarkets and doesn't give a damn. (She will understand this.) :) - Ms. G.Warbucks IYN
That was a fun night. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
not to sound too much like a Mutual Admiration Society, but edythe's feed was what got me hooked on this place. :-D - Karim
Ha, there are too many awesome people here to list and compliment individually; but Denton Gentry, Kevin Johnson, and Morton Fox are all awesome and extremely skilled techies! - i80and
The FF founders and employees rock pretty hard too thanks Paul, Bret, Jim, Anna etc - Steve C
browneyes - otsunegi
Lindsay D. and Kol Tregaskes are kind and respectful even when disagreeing with someone. Civility like that deserves a mention because it is not often the norm in the online world. - Jim Hearts FF
Penny for her personality and her self portraits which are awesome and so real!<3 Dobromir, Richard and Michael who always wishes good morning ^^. Manuela, because of her sense of style what becomes to art, also a very lovely person! Nakachi, Girl, you rock my world! Stay as you are - you are wonderful! L4S who is so much fun and amazing person :) Will, cause of his kindness and cause... more... - Nia
Everybody already mentioned in this thread, plus Meryn and Joelle for being really smart and inquisitive about some of things I find particularly interesting, too. Or at least the way they discuss them. Not that I don't think that way about the rest of you, just no one had mentioned them yet. - ɐ ɯıʞ sıɹɥɔ
Jim, yeah there's no need to be bitchy while disagreeing. Get your point over but don't be nasty about it. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Bumping this, I hope. Loved this thread! - DO ANYBODY NO Laura B.
I think Josh Haley has a very smart and charismatic older brother. No, not that one...the other one... - Morgan Haley
Laura Botts cracks my shit up. I'm still trying to figure out what her obsession with grits is. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
This thread was the business. *stirs grits* - Derrick
Mo, she's a Suthehn Gul. - Derrick
IIRC, it's all Barry's fault. - DO ANYBODY NO Laura B.
Oh, and Ha3rvey's post today made me think of this thread. http://friendfeed.com/ha3rvey... - DO ANYBODY NO Laura B.
Mo Kargas for his awesomeness. (I hope that by honoring great killer robots my death shall be quick and painless once they take over the world) - Jemm
i80and for his Linux postings, FFing Enigma for roller derbying, Mo Kargas because... the giant robot intimidates me. - DGentry
echostreamer has solid integrity and calls me on my sh!t - highly appreciated - William Harryman
How did I miss thread? It needs a comeback. Thank you LB for the bump. If you think I might know who you are, the odds are high I love you and thank you for being around (even if you have moved on, in which case you won't see this, but it is important to mention nonetheless) and thank you for letting me into your lives a little bit *hugs* - Michael W. May
MWM, this was one of the best FF threads I've ever seen. Sometimes it just needs to reappear. :) #complimentSunday - DO ANYBODY NO Laura B.
I didn't see this the first time round either (but it looks like I was in NYC when this was happening). I have friends who I knew before FF for whom friendfeed has allowed me to know better and there are folks like RAP, edythe, and MwM whose posting and conversation have enriched my life and ignited my imagination. Thanks kids. And, of course, I love Sneezy but FF had little to do with that. - Jason Toney
I really admire Kol Tregaskes, he's always informative and gets involved quite a bit with almost everything. Quite the most selfless individual I ever came across on the net :) ... Also Holden Page impresses me everyday because he's a younger individual with tons of interest in several subjects that most older users usually get into, he shows he's not afraid to learn and keep his... more... - Tim Tunnicliff
I've met a lot of great people here on FF (I won't single anyone out). This is a diverse community that has brought some great conversations that simply could not have been done with a little blue bird and whale. - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
Holly Rae is the biggest FF'in promoter within a hundred mile radius of my chair. :) - Laura (hear me raura?)
I can't really say much about anyone specific, other than ya'll are the greatest and have helped amuse me through some very hard times over the past year or so, and a special thanks with much love goes out to Amber, the Random Time Lord for introducing me to FF and for putting up with me for this long. - Tsali, The Native of FF
I totally like Louis Gray - Mike Fruchter - RAPatton - Worthington - CS Techcast - and tons of other people - thanks for making my use of FF enjoyable. - Dan Morrill AKA Techwag
Gosh! Thank you very much, Tim! - Kol Tregaskes
You're very welcome my friend :+) TIM J. TUNNICLIFF - Tim Tunnicliff from email

I'm feeling really disappointed in people today. And it shouldn't matter, but an acquaintance who is a close friend of many of my friends just said yet another thing that I find really insulting and I was stupid enough to take the bait and reply to it. Of course everyone else is going to nod and agree and I guess this just means...
That at this point in my life I need to expand or change my circle of friends. - joey
Joey, just have to say that you are awesome...Don't let the naysayers get you down. - Alex Scoble
Joey, I hate that people are being bitchy about your choice =/ - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
You need not feel stupid for defending yourself against insults. Obviously these people don't care what you think anyway. Best to just move on from the sound of things. - Kenton
<3 - Rochelle
[was going to make a crack about Rochelle can see what you're saying here, but she IS here with a better approach then mine] >>Sorry, trying to cheer you up, Joey.<< When company or government disappoints, we get mad; when it's a friend, we get hurt. Thanks for sharing the real with us, joeybean, hang in there. - Micah Wittman
I'm sorry! You shouldn't feel bad about speaking up, though. If it's from the thread earlier that I'm thinking of, I would have liked some clarification to see s/he meant it the way you interpreted it or meant something else. I suspect you interpreted it correctly, though. It it is that comment, either way it was a pretty juvenile comment. Definitely speak up if those things bother you! - Katy S
Whatever circle you go to I'll follow.. like a stalker! - Kyle Johnson
What Micah and Kyle said. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from iPod
Thanks everyone. Oh, Katy, it wasn't on FF at all; it was something that an 'offline' acquaintance in my circle of 'offline' friends said on FB. - joey
Ah. Well, these things can happen anywhere. - Katy S
Some of the best advice I've ever received was that I should continuously re-evaluate my friendships. It's worked well for me so far. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening
Yeah, this guy responded to my response and was extremely rude. He has also been extremely rude to me in person. Unfortunately a big group of people I'm friends with adores and constantly panders to him so I guess it's time for me to find a new circle of people to trust. That's good advice, Beau. - joey
Kyle, he is one of your friends, probably closer than I am. - joey
You seem couch sized, I can import you to Toledo, but if you're bringing Ben with you, you'll need to bring a cot or something. - Matthew DeVries
@Joey - I'm sure it was.. our friends can be douchebags. I know how to swing in multiple circles though... I already do quite a bit. Don't worry though, wherever you go, there you'll be.. er.. I'll be! - Kyle Johnson
Jason Nunnelley
Dear Norton's Antivirus and AVG, I hate you!
I use AVG and haven't had problems with it. How come you hate it? - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening
It's become a resource hog like Nortons, McAfee, etc. Most recently it won't uninstall because it can't perform a backup of itself before uninstalling - backup fail problem. So, I have to upgrade it to uninstall. That kind of stuff drives me nuts. - Jason Nunnelley from email
I like avast - Mike Nencetti
Me too! - Jason Nunnelley from email

OMG MY HOUSE IS SHAKING AND THERE IS HAIL HITTING MY HOUSE SUPER HARD.
Max is FREAKING OUT. Poor guy. Wow, this is intense. I'm shocked that we still have power, considering our history. - joey
*peeks out from cloth* sounds like Texas and Oklahoma in springtime. turn on the National Weather Service for alerts and instructions. srsly. *inverts again* - Joe Silence is not dead
Yeah, we don't get weather events like this very often. We get some pretty big wind storms every autumn, but not a lot of thunderstorms and our hail is usually small. - joey
is that why it's so loud? because it's frozen? - Vezquex: God of FF
It's loud because it is angry! - joey
Vezquex: yes. large hail on the roof sounds like a crowd is up there with hammers trying to tunnel into your attic. - Joe Silence is not dead
HELLO NW HURRICANE - veo

I can't be the only one who could care less about the Droid.
Yep, it's just you ;) - Alex Scoble
Yep your the only one ! - SCS Watching the Sun from fftogo
It's cool and all, and I'd care to if I could fucking afford it. - Maxamad (Amazigh)
Maybe if I knew that I could have all the Apps I have on my iPhone on the Droid I would care. But, for me to leave my iPhone I would have to see my apps on that phone. For me it is all about the apps. - Mathew™ one of a kind
I'd care if I weren't an iPhone user. If the iPhone isn't available to other networks besides AT&T by the time my contract expires, I might care a lot more about Droid. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening
Me either... Once you have an iPhone nothing else matters. - orionstarr from iPhone
Mary Carmen
You're doing it wrong.
But you said you wouldn't show me the right way! - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle
If the way I'm doing it is wrong, baby, I don't wanna be right! - josh neff, Fun Dip of FF
Josh, I think you need to tell me what you're doing! - Mary Carmen
Right now? Laying on the couch, watching Leverage. - josh neff, Fun Dip of FF
Yeah but I'm enjoying it. - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS

FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Just applied for a job that, at first blush, truly looks like a great fit for me. There aren't a lot of those in the world much less the Greenville area so I'm all jittery and hopeful on the inside. The sad part? I'm tired of feeling this way and having nothing come of it. Dejected Tina is dejected even though she ought not be...
Hang in there! - Anne Bouey
I'm sorry. Hope this one turns out to be the right one! - Jim Hearts FF
Hope you land it! - Spidra Webster
Good luck Tina! =) - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening
Everyone, make sure you cross your fingers for me! Toes, arms, legs, and eyes would also be welcome =D - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Okay, but I won't cross the streams. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Good Luck :) - ovigia
I'm crossing it all and hoping for the best!!! - adf
MVB, never say never. One day you might get startled whilst standing at a urinal and, well... Accidents happen. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
*begins cooler stocking procedure just in case* Good luck T. - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS
See Mark, my mind went there too. We may have been separated at birth. You are the evil twin :) - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS
It's all crossed for you :) - Heather Solos
good luck, hope you get the job and it turns out to be a good one - Imabug
*wonders why Tina knows so much about urinal shenanigans* - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
wait... I attributed Tina's comment to Mark... Maybe *SHE's* my long lost *evil* twin sister.... TINA'S MY EVIL COFFEE SWILLING SOUL GLANCE SHRIVELING TWIN SISTER... *swoons* - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS
Mark, I played on the guys' varsity soccer team in high school. I know more about male urination patterns than is healthy for any non-urologist female =/ - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Fair enough. In retrospect I should have tried out for the girls varsity volleyball team, then... - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Title 9 works both ways, so you could have if there was no boys team. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Everything's crossed! - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
So, when's the interview, anway? - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Just sent my resume in half an hour ago, so haven't even heard back from the company yet. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
What makes this job a particularly good fit - in case any of us comes upon others? - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
Mainly the fact that it's a position that bridges between tech and non-tech sides of a business, which is something I do pretty darn well (translating geek, that is). It also bridges detail work (assesments of current company tech) with big picture work (streamlining the tech used & creating best practices). - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Good luck Tina - hope you get it and that it's as good as it seems on first blush. I think dejected may not be the worst thing sometimes, at least when it comes to interviews - as long as it's not obvious to the interviewer. May leave you where you're less jazzed up, calmer, able to nail an interview. - Patrick Jordan
Fingers crossed for you, Tina. - Kol Tregaskes
Good luck, Tina! - Joe Bonner
I think that's a hugely valuable skill set that you could create a business - or tailor a pitch - around. One of my favorite writers is Penelope Trunk, who writes about career development, and a recurring theme is about creating your own job in a company by finding a problem/project and proposing yourself as the solution/project leader. http://blog.penelopetrunk.com/ Your skillset, esp... more... - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
That's something I've been mulling over, Mary, should it come down to me hanging out a shingle of my own. I've got an email management presentation that I put together when I was a trainer that's pretty compelling and I've thought about testing the waters with it. I'm just up in the clouds when it comes to rates and market feasibility, though: just because a company really *needs* a tech overhaul doesn't mean they're willing to pay to do it... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Does The Latest Survival of The Dead Trailer Make For A Romero Come Back? - Survival of the dead - io9
"A new trailer for Survival of The Dead has all the zombie quirks of a classic Romero production, including the nasty make up, and a return to shambling. But will this film bring the horror director back from the dead?" - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet
Trailer makes it look like a bad B movie (not that I don't like B movies...I do)...looks like a comedy more than a horror flick. - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening

I'm trying, Steve! Ayşe, today is wonderful, for a multitude of reasons. One being the chocolate croissant on my desk, but not for my hair being in the in-between stage. Do I buzz it? Grow it out? This is what it sounds like when the doves cry. Or I think too much. :) - Derrick
