Gonna post it as a thread?
You think the quality is bad? I've listened to it so many times I prolly can't tell any more.
Probably not a separate thread. I put it on the blog and on the Virginia message board. I'll post it in an upcoming campaign thread.
That is absolutely fanastic, Corin!! You should figure out a way to get paid for all that creative genius!!
Yes, very bad. If I did not know all the words I might not have gotten some of the jokes.
hmmmm....I'm not sure if I can find anything any better. That's from the soundtrack...
Something with downloading mp3's illegaly
Type-A career woman stops in to her favorite shoe store to buy the must-have-or-die shoe. They're out of her size. She goes ballistic. At home, she finds an online retailer that carries them. While she's clicking around to place her order the website gets hacked. The hacker is particularly juvenile in his comments on the page. So she starts cyber-stalking him and finds a forum where he hangs out. She calms down enough to have enough presence of mind to use a library's computer to exact her revenge. She writes out this rant about what a loser the hacker is, how they should get a real job, blah blah blah. She signs her rant "A Citizen" and feels better about the whole deal.
Until work the next day....
when she is called into the conference room by her boss to meet with a bunch of FBI agents who are tracking the notorious hacker "A.Citizen". He's wanted on a multitude of charges that I haven't made up yet.
Yowsers! Well, she's no hacker and the FBI are convinced she's not the one (but not after putting the fear of God into her first). But now she's a target of A.Citizen and the FBI want her cooperation in helping them catch him. She's bait. Throw in some romantic twists (ie A.Citizen developing a genuine, adolescent crush on her), some silliness, and some drama and it might be a good nano.
autobiographical?
Naw. There's nothing on my shopping list that is ever must-have-or-die. I patterned her on one of those "shopaholic" stereotype-type characters. Only I wanted less of a dingbat.
Dingbat kilt the thread
Hmmm... There might be some I can use there. Will have to think about it. Thanks!
It's still loading on my dial-up!!
I have been complimented!
One of the moderators at The Samba posted one of my threads on a "Sticky"...saying it's worth keeping up front.

Front Seat Belt Latch Re-assembly
I'm very flattered!
(You don't get complimented nearly enough, fwiw.)
Wow... I've been put in breaking news before... but I've never been made "Sticky"!
Agreed, Lf... :~)
And I usually just give her a hard time.
Well, I try to help a lot on that board whenever I can, because they're very helpful to me and don't redicule me because I'm ignorant (not stupid...I don't mind admitting to being ignorant.)
One guy had to weld in an entire package tray into the back of his bug. He didn't even have a previous package tray to reference, and I helped him by going out, taking all the measurements of mine and photoshopping the measurements onto digital pictures for him. He was so appreciative!
A young teenage girl couldn't get her seats out...I took pictures of each step how to do it...again, she was very happy and had no trouble after that.
Then one guy ordered what he thought was a fresh air box (puts fresh air into the car) and instead only got a hose. I had just seen exactly what he needed and told him I'd go get it. I bought it, shipped it to him and the whole thing cost me about $11. I declined payment, so he made a donation to The Samba website in my name.
Steve says he'd pat me on the back if my own arm wasn't in the way, but my feeling is...if you are helped, you should help.
My "newer" rims were purchased for like $5 from a guy in OKC that is a Samba participant.
Keeps me humble.
ROFLOL!!!
