Honestly Tim, I wasn't trying to make your life more difficult, as I
couldn't begin to do what you have done--in life or on ROFF. However, I
though that several of the pics (particularly, the one of the cable rapped
around the pointy rock) were pointless without the explanation. Others
might have gotten by on there own?

Anyway, if I had a say in this, I'd go with the text below the thumbnail
pic, as the entire explanation still doesn't appear when the pic is paused
upon...

It's your site and I won't put my two scents in again.

Thanks again for your hard work!

WTF? My life sucks. It's like living in hell, only in a parallel
universe where hell is MUCH worse than earth-hell. It's like army ants
crawling into every orafice imaginable. It's like War of the Worlds,
only it's just me. It's like an unbarbed fliy you've cast into your own
arm. It's like killer bees in multiple waves. It's like watching Kevin
Vang tied to. . . well, you get the point.

Like Eau de Op and Eau de Mark? :) Seriously, your input is
appreciated.

Thanks again for your hard work!


The point is IT'S NOT HARD WORK and it isn't going to turn into that in
any case. I've often thought it would be good to have a collection place
for roff trips'n'pics and this is a good opportunity to start it. It's
for purely selfish reasons so I don't have to hunt for the photos I want
to see. It's like having Stan's page for the swaps - it's just nice to
have one spot to go and see what you want to see.

I made some edits to the page - see what you think now. If you don't
like it, well. . . http://css.sbcma.com/timj/pics/fk_ometer.gif ;-)

Kick-ass text.......but the graphics are kinda weak. I dunno......sometimes
it just seems kinda like you don't care......or something.

Anyway, aside from that, looking at the rest of the site, I must say that
disclaimers about ease notwithstanding, you've done a marvelous job. Tis a
far better thing you do than most of us would take the time for......even
had we the inclination and the technical wherewithal.

Um........except for the part where you post pictures other than
mine.......It annoys me, but I
know I'm not justified in being annoyed. They aren't really hurting me.
Still, I don't like it.

who, looking critically at his own output, is sorely tempted to take up a
career in plagiarism.......um.......hm........who said that? :(

You got a loving family. I had my best friend euthanized. You have a home
worth a gazillion dollars--granted that's Canadian dollars. I live in a
disgarded radio-active, three-sided box made of Teflon (TM--Dupont Corp.).
You're a computer genius. I can't draw a straight line with an
Etch-A-Sketch. You are well liked. I'm not even well...you get the
picture?

Say what! Are you hitting on me? I think that you are hitting on me!

Maybe life has more meaning than I thought?

We call that a "hit" around here.

You have a home worth a gazillion dollars--granted that's Canadian dollars.


Okay, .81 gazillion Amerikun.

I live in a disgarded radio-active, three-sided box made of Teflon
(TM--Dupont Corp.).


I've got the other three sides. Do not, I repeat (burritos for lunch), do
NOT touch the orange tape.

You're a computer genius.


Oh, get real. He puts the doze in Windows.

I can't draw a straight line with an Etch-A-Sketch.


Its easy, just lay the Etch-A-Sketch on the paper and put the pencil up
against the side.

You are well liked.


Hell, Timmay died soon after that one Penns he went to. You're responding
to that chimp that writes Shakespeare.

I'm not even well...you get the picture?


Okay, you've got a point. You are definately "not well."

I KNEW it! Goddamn, I KNEW it!

Damn shame, though, he seemed like a pretty decent guy.

Wolfgang

anything cuz you didn't want to look silly? :(

And for you sir, well you will be hearing from my attorneys, yes many of
them, very soon. You remember that mini-creel with the soap bars in it that
you sent me a couple of years ago?

Who the hell imbeds flys with barbed hooks in a bars of SOAP, for
christsake!

I may never be able to have children now!

Sure anyone can make a mistake, I said to myself when I hooked myself in the
testicle, when bathing with the first bar. No problem, I said to myself,
Franks a good guy, well like around ROFF, but there were flys in BOTH bars
of soap. I can't let this one pass, Mister Reid! The second imbedded fly
had to be a deliberate act of Yankee flyfishin'/bathin' terrorism.

Just hope your wiff can knit me a damn nice Afghan woman!

Love,

Mark

Not true. I've got Tim right here chained in the closet. From the looks
of things, he has figured out a way to smuggle in food - LOTS of food.

BTW, I got your Shakespeare right he

See, see the small sky
Marvel at its big chartreuse depths.
Tell me, Frank Reid do you
Wonder why the pug ignores you?
Why its foobly stare
makes you feel testy.
I can tell you, it is
Worried by your cramtinkle facial growth
That looks like
Cheerios.
What's more, it knows
Your carp potting shed
Smells of snot.
Everything under the big small sky
Asks why, why do you even bother?
You only charm stinky cheeses.

I'm sure we'll have yet another roff consensus. ;-)


I'd prefer under for the descriptions. Tried the mouseover yesterday
and got nada.
