Colour commentary on the world we live in

FYI

Posted 26 Sep, 2005 at 17:43 by matt in /System | Permanent link

As was mentioned a while ago, our esteemed proprietor Brent will be moving house (and country) in the near future. It's possible that you'll see some mild disruption over the next couple of weeks at this site.

Or maybe I'm the proprietor and Brent's the landowner. Whatever.

Comments (10 comments so far)
Baron Brent is the Landowner
Master Matt is the Proprietor

The rest of us are just house guests that refuse to leave. ;)

Buddy Blue, speak for yourself. Better yet, let me speak for you! ;-) Buddy Blue is a feature. Komrade Kael is a fixture. (I couldn't think of any other K-titles--cut me some slack, it's an indecent hour to be up before)

I'm entirely parasitic...

Wendy Worm?

May I propose....
Stopping this game before someone loses an eye? (Yes, I was going to post other things, but discretion got the better of me)

Renovations continue
Please be advised as renovations have already begun that you may encounter some mess and perhaps some lack of plumbing as it were. Choose your washrooms wisely :) Mucking with DNS and mail, they should be up but there might be some flakiness. Let me know if you see something. You can send mail to escriver AT hotmail.com for such instances if you do not find me online.

Interesting little security feature
I guess it prevents spamming, but how appropriate is it to get the question: How many copies of the letter R are in the world ALBERTA?

Security
I'm still waiting for the question asking how many 'I's are in 'TEAM'.

Also, how many 'K's in 'MEGABYTE'.

I'd like to nominate Kael to be in charge of setting the questions :)

Hows & Whys
Who we are

Blue has been known to toss a disc around a field from time to time, and thinks that you should as well. He lives either on the Internet or in Toronto, depending on your perspective. Ask him no questions and there's a good chance he'll tell you no lies. [Site]

Brent hosts the box from which we dangle our conversations, for which we are all eternally grateful. Gratitude is most easily expressed in small bills. Formerly a pawn of the Evil Empire (or maybe a Knight), he has gone over the wall and now toils at a small computer game company in Alberta that no one except for ten million gamers has ever heard of. [Site]

Kael occasionally gets called "Mike"; mostly by people who don't know him. He cooks, he cleans, he maintains Unix servers... what else could you ask for? Currently a slave to the Man, by which we mean retail sales. He has secret plans, but we can't tell you about them. In fact, we've already said too much. [Site]

Lisa is a recreational therapist without a cause. She entertains dreams of ruling over an empire of scrapbooking. Has a well-deserved reputation for enthusiasm, common sense, and tiredness. Ask her about her teapots, but don't touch them.

Matt is just this guy, you know? A mathematician by training and a layabout by inclination; he currently has an Urban Commuter Campus in the American Midwest convinced that they should pay him for plying these trades. The designer and administrator of this site, which means in a sense this is all his fault. [Site | E-mail]

Sky is a salesman during the day. At night he doesn't bother: his words are like unto those of a god, and you can agree or you can be wrong. Lives in the World of Warcraft, with a sattelite office in Toronto. Known to play games on occasion.

Wendy has never run away to join the circus, but pursuing graduate work in medical imaging is perhaps just as good. She didn't choose her current abode on the basis of proximity to a Toronto Public Library branch, but we wouldn't put it past her. Married to one of the other authors here, but you'll have to read the archives to find out which one. [Site]
