How does one post a topic and get the honor of Skinner responding?
A post earlier showed a pic of an engagement ring and Skinner responded. I know this guy is busy but I think it's cool when Skinner responds to one of our posts.

3. True, Skinner only shows up in threads about sex
or in GD2004, which is a lot like rough sex.

10. I brought a salad from home.
I've had too much subway in the last two weeks. I think we need some more lunch options.

24. Lunch options
If your office was at my house, these would be your lunch options. All within walking distance:

2 Middle Eastern food places
Italian ristorante
Greasy burger joint
Greek food/breakfast diner combo
Subway
Fast food burger place
2 Chinese restaurants
2 bagel-sandwich places
2 Pizza places
local sandwich shop
local hot dog and sandwich shop
Japanese rice bowls
Burrito place
A bunch of expensive restaurants to impress clients
5 locally owned coffee shops (and two Starbucks, and a Peaberries)

And you would live near the DU campus, with the DU Laundromat and the DU Book Store. :D (Denver University)

28. Conversely
If your house was at our office, you'd have:

A nasty Chinese restaurant
7-Eleven
McDonalds
Subway
Safeway
Many, many overpriced cafe-style restaurants

And we don't have a TV and you'd have to sleep under a desk.

7. I had one.
He complemented me for being even handed in one of the partisan battles here. I waited days. I thought it might be an unpleasant retort or a reprimand. I was so surprised. Thanks Skinner.

( a true story)

8. Link an image form somethingawful.com?
(You newbies, never do this. The image that shows up will get you banninated from pretty well much every forum on the internet.)

12. You shouldn't be able to link images from somethingawful.com anymore.
Elad programmed a function which blocks image linking from sites we designate.

(It's one of the many behind-the-scenes enhancements he's made to DU that you guys don't even know about.)

32. Houston? Didn't janet Jackson show a boob there?
Edited on Wed Feb-04-04 03:23 PM by Rabrrrrrr
And didn't Kerry pay her to do it in order to further discredit Dean's candidacy?

That's why I support Clark. And Creationism in schools.
