Fantastic word game

"Not at the same time as Megan McCormick" is electronically coded on Olivia Newton-John's electronic plane ticketing every time she flies, because if they are both in the air at the same time, there would be a danger both could be lost at once, which would devastate America's culture.
 
Devastating America's culture results from a failure to understand the difference between multi-ethnic which is the melting pot, and multi-cultural, which destroys the fabric of America.
 
The fabric of America must be cotton because they used to run all those TV commercials with that really catchy jingle.

Yes, WMC...I did notice that Miss Silkie altered quad's clue and yes, I let the game continue without skipping over her contribution because I thought to do otherwise would have been counterproductive.
 
That really catchy jingle must have been in my ears when I posted, but let it never again be said that I was lazy, and copied and pasted without capitalizing the first letter of the first word.

My bad.
 
The first letter of the first word is always capitalized unless that first word is quadraphonic or dmargalotti.



Well done, dmargalotti. And it would also be counterproductive to discipline Miss Silkie this morning so we shall look the other way. Also, I'm just way too lazy to walk over to the demerit closet. ;D
 
quadraphonic or dmargalotti can always be depended on to be an ambassador to our band camp policies whether they be local or international.
 
Local or international, all of America's culture is flocking to the parking lot at Illusions for tonight's Late Night All-Wolcott Heiferfest, which starts at 1:30 a.m..

So all the smart money will be anywhere but Illusions.
 
At 1:30 a.m. Dave and I will be playing our final selections of great music, and as of right now the line for the mechanical bull is huge.
 
The line for the mechanical bull is huge, and I must say that these are not young "ladies" we would choose to date fine, upstanding young men, but are more the love on the rocks type stand-ins for cads, if you get my drift.
 
If you get my drift, and you're an affable young fellow, hold out for the right girl, and when you find her, and you're sure she's the one, that's the time you gotta stop carrying around your picture of Megan McCormick.
 
Your picture of Megan McCormick or Olivia Newton-John might be all you have to hold onto for a time, not unlike Thoroughly Modern Millie, who carried an ace of hearts around in the photo album section of her wallet.

I'm pretty sure it was Thoroughly Modern Millie.
 
The photo album section of her wallet was filled with family pictures and, oddly enough, pictures of dmargalotti, quadraphonic, Darth, WMC, and SweetiePie.
 
Pictures of dmargalotti, quadraphonic, Darth, WMC, and SweetiePie were also transferred to her buttons and knobs, each picture being assigned several pet names of famed artists as a matter of convenience.
 
As a matter of convenience, Darth accepts all inquiries regarding computer related matter because he basically knows everything there is to know.
 
Everything there is to know can never be known because as time progresses the sum total of knowledge increases at a rate faster than any one person or entity is able to absorb, although the good folks at Google make an excellent effort.
 
The good folks at Google make an excellent effort at tracking everyone's (well, maybe not *everyone's*, hint hint) browsing history, data mining and other deliberate invasions of privacy because they really are acting as an intelligence contractor for the World's Government.

[size=8pt]And that's why everybody really should be using the anonymising G??gl? front-end "Scroogle", https://ssl.scroogle.org/ , as well as maintaining a well-written hosts file; one good hosts file to start with (and build out from) is the one at http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt (or http://216.155.126.44/hosts.txt .) It also blocks everything coming to/from G??gl? Analytics, a *must-do* in this day and age. Disabling Javascript support in your browser helps protect you as well.

And for the Gods' sakes, ENCRYPT EVERYTHING on your hard drives, ESPECIALLY if it's in a laptop! No reason why hard drives should be all cleartext these days. And if you take your laptop places with you and it's not encrypted you're obviously criminally insane!!
 
An intelligence contractor for the World's Government will be contacting Darth to find out why he didn't use the appropriate clue from Wright County Guy's contribution which was posted a good half hour before Darth came along.


I'm SHOCKED to say the least that this happened. Darth, don't make me send the corporate east coast techies out there to check on everything. I want a full written report on this situation first thing in the morning.

And, Wright County Guy, nice to see you again and Happy New Year. Please don't be a stranger. ;D
 
A good half hour before Darth came along, the heels on the business end of those big ol' cowboy boots were telling him to give himself a good swift kick in the derrier.
 
A good half hour before Darth came along the Wright County Guy came in and injected his post but I didn't see it because apparently R-I's server must have pharted again (can't blame my equipment this time, as I was using the ADSL directly instead of over dial-up like I usually do), so just in case anybody may have missed it Wright mentioned something about differentiating the multiple meanings of "Santorum", much to the former Senator's chagrin.

It happens sometimes. The MBE once explained it on another board (think it was a couple summers ago when it pharted and we ended up losing a couple FWG pages.) If I understand correctly, the R-I servers are in a "distributed" topology, meaning the board's data are actually spread out amongst different servers in a cluster. So if one server goes down (i.e. a crash, or maintenence) only the data on that server become unavailable for a spell, but the whole site doesn't go down altogether unless something really catastrophic happens (like a power outage.)

Personally, if I were running it I'd have the entire site mirrored redundantly across several servers in a redundant fashion, since it's redundant and redundant systems have a high degree of error tolerance, because this error tolerance is provided in no small part by its redundancy (get the idea? ;o), and connect them via a router. That way one server could literally go up in flames without affecting continuity of the site's content or function. But that's just me.

Now could somebody please explain to me why Miss Silkie was able to post in the meantime, but I didn't get a warning when I did "Submit", like I'm supposed to get?

A good swift kick in the derriere might help people in differentiating the multiple meanings of "Santorum", much to the former Senator's chagrin.
