But enough chit chat. Let’s start tripping the light fantastic!!!
Of course, without a few tunes going on, dancing would just be a bad “a cappella” rip off.
Do the Monkey With Me!
Come on!!!
And now to get the ball rolling:
Hey, how'd you like to watch the show in 3-D, sweet thing?
Say there, pretty air mama, didn't you see me in your dreams last night?
Hey babearilla, that a pretty eensie-weensie, teeny-weenie polka-dot thingy you got going there.
Come and get it, ladies. I'm yours for the takin'!
Hey there, cutie pants!
Hey all you hot mamas. Wanna talk to a steamin' hunk of cyber fella?
Hey there, cutie pants. Am I as studly as the Statue of David, or what?
Oh, baby! I'm going to make your dreams come true!
Hya! Dreamy hunk, right here!
You wanna frisk me?
Wanna get lost with me (whoosh)?
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, let's roll in the hay.
I'm gonna say, 'Hey hot mama, wanna go back to my place for a game of Twister?
Lady: "How many times do I have to tell you I have a boyfriend?!" Johnny: "Well, you look like the kind of girl that could use two."
I bet your name's Mickey, 'cause you're so fine. You're so fine...
Hey there, foxy hygiene girl. (whoosh) I love a babe with minty breath.
All right. I guess that makes me the object of desire, huh baby?
Johnny: "Excuse me, miss." Lady: "(gasp!)" Johnny: "How'd you like to paint the town red with a happenin' hipster?"
Pardon me, hot sexy mama. If you'd please to take a look at my, (whoosh) Hya, studly bod, (whoosh), then I may have the pleasure of you wanting to be my number-one main squeeze.
Hey there, miss. I'm Johnny B. Wanna spend the day with me?
Whoa. Man, you're pretty!
Hey there, Spanish seniorita. Sprechen se love?
Hey there, smart mama.
You smell kinda pretty. Wanna smell me?
Say, how 'bout you and me sharin' a soda right now?
You're steamin' baby! You too. And you. And you, pretty man. Oh man, time flies when you're having fun.
Hello, teen hotline. You're boyfriend left ya'? Why, what are you wearin'?
Wanna do the monkey with me?
So, are we having fun yet? What am I saying…of course we are!!!
AND THE FUN IS JUST GETTING STARTED!!!
Let’s make it a weekend to remember!!!
So what do you think of the latest 24 episode?

Knowing that the time for an average site when functioning normally from my computer is roughly 70-80ms, I could tell there was something there--but why we were down, I have no clue.
Yet, neither Firefox, nor Konqueror, nor Internet Explorer (run through WINE) could load the site.
It's a lil trick I learned when I ran Slackware Linux 10.1 last summer.
Um. Little too technical for my peroxide level, but I think I git what you're saying.
Well, I hate to have to do this, but I'm gonna' have to go early tonight. Gotta' get up early and START MY NEW JOB!!!!!!!!!! tomorrow.
And a closeup of the Mac:
Your new job?! When were you gonna tell us about that? Shouldn't you tell your cohost something like that?
Good evening.
Simply put, the ping in terminal shows the same performance when FR was down than when it was running normally. So, it wasn't a computer reboot or the thing going offline for maintenance.
See? Forgot to ask me how it went, didn't you?
Howdy!
Hello, tulip.
See if you can whip these people up into excitement, because I got to get going early. D'oh!
I was going to tell when...well, I'd rather drop a bomb on everyone.
I'm working morning shift for my first day, so I'll be back in plenty of time to do the ping tomorrow evening.
Really? That's weird. How could it show the same thing for when it's down vs. running slow or being bogged down?
Hi RAS.
I don't think it will be too exciting with me here...
Well...I'm excited that you here. Work your magic!
Not really sure. I could have used Nmap. However, I rarely use Nmap (only on my home network)--and if FR is having problems, I'll just ping -c the IP address with five packets.
I'm not going to probe to see if they're up with such a tool--pinging packets along with normal internet traffic suffices most all the time.
