No comment is a comment

I may be wrong, but as far as I can tell, the comments on this blog are now working, more or less.

No, they're not.

Posted by: Mr. Manager at March 16, 2005 04:58 PM

No? In what sense?

Posted by: Dr. Frank at March 16, 2005 04:59 PM

They work Frank.

Finally. And I didn't even make you blow up your site. (I take it the helpdesk finished the job I couldn't?)

No Michele, it was duct tape, two bottles of holy water, an athame, and a blessed scroll of identify...

As long as you didn't have to sacrifice any woodland animals.

what? it's not a party unless a squirrel meets its maker.

finally, a better way to kill time at work other than giving myself paper cuts.

huzzah! and double huzzah!

(and by the by thanks again)

That reminded me of a party I went to once where everyone acted like they had to go home early and then after I left I hid behind some shrubbery and watched them all come back thinking they had gotten rid of me.

WELL NOT THIS TIME!

that's sad man,i wouldn't want the company of such folks. that's when i'd turn on the silent treatment. if they're really just busy or need some kind of wacky privacy they'll let it be known when my company is desired. otherwise we are no longer on speaking terms.

Posted by: just me at March 17, 2005 12:33 AM

i disagree, i think a better solution would be to simply run back in and yell BEER BONG (with your junk showing).

Posted by: fan at March 17, 2005 12:59 AM

Yeah, but pull my finger.

Do you blog? There is currently a research survey out that seeks to know "why bloggers blog." The study is being performed by a graduate student at Appalachian State University in North Carolina. The survey takes less than 5 minutes to complete. Thanks for your time.

they weren't working for a long time. Now they seem to be fine.

Posted by: lucky409 at March 17, 2005 04:10 AM

hey frank, i`m listening to your "Love is dead" album, and it`s just perfect. Actually, Mr T. Experience is one of the best pop-punk bands of the 90ies (with NOFX and Bad Religion staning in line with you and all others sucking much or less).

Thank you for some brilliant musical stuff. Your music keeps me on since 1997.

PS: I`m from Russia, but i do own the original CD. :)

I had thought you'd just grown tired of the comments from the peanut gallery. mmmmmm peanuts..... Well, actually I think most of us are corn-nuts, but there's one that's a nut-sack and the name need not be mentioned (you know).

Posted by: Zaphod at March 17, 2005 10:43 AM

Happy St. Patricks Day!! That means you have to toss aside that watery crap and drink Guinness today, Frank!!!

Posted by: Zaphod at March 17, 2005 10:50 AM

why do people drink on st patrick's day?

Posted by: christopher at March 17, 2005 12:56 PM

Old Irish tradition my friend. Don't forget the Jameson's as well!

Finally! I, too, thought maybe you'd gotten tired of comments, but you left the comment link up just to taunt us. "Got something to say about this post? Well, TOUGH! HA HA HA HA HA!"

Either that or you were staring at your empty comments tally, wondering where all your readers had gone. "Sniff. They don't love me any more!"

I have too much imagination.

I am occasionally getting this message, on trying to post:

"An error occurred:

You must define a Comment Pending template."

It may be that I'm triggering an anti-spam filter, though, as I'm pasting messages in to the box instead of typing them out.

Posted by: dave bug at March 17, 2005 04:59 PM

Yeah, Dave, I got that once when I posted "test." I'm not sure why it happens, but, in that case, at least, the comment ended up being posted. Maybe if we ignore it, it will go away.

I read that article, only it was Green Day. Clever, saving the page and changing the HTML.

Posted by: Zaphod at March 17, 2005 10:28 PM

man, i wish the comments had been working when you were talking about the jello biafra/viva las vegas/amerikkkan idle (ha) thing because you were cracking me up and i wanted to say so. but i couldn't. so i was just left laughing and whimpering all alone. oh well!

Posted by: r a e d y at March 17, 2005 11:37 PM

"I mean, asking East Bay Ray about American Idol isn't exactly marching from Selma to Montgomery." oh shit it's still funny. well i'll comment now, then.

that's funny! whoa!

I think they should do a tour of the south playing in tents and healing people.

i dont buy it.

Posted by: christopher at March 18, 2005 01:11 PM

Something bothers me about people in other courties listening to an album called "American Idiot." I just want to turn into one of those twelve year-old proud-to-be-hoochies from Maury. "You don't know me! I do what I want! You don't know me!"

Posted by: josh at March 18, 2005 02:08 PM

finally. anyway frank i've been dying to ask you your feelings on hst's suicide. well not dying, just curious. and, by chance, do you happen to listen to coast to coast am with art bell and george noory? just curious, i am addicted.

p.s. if you have never listened, download this off of aquisition or limewire: mel's hole. it is a great place to start. fascinating. c2c is a 4 hour nightly conspiracy/paranormal/dysinformation revealing am talk radio show. it is broadcasted all over the united states and worldwide webcasts. sure there are looneys, hoaxers and pranks. however, there are many, many solid reputable scientists, average joes and brilliant thinkers that call in or are guests every night. do you know anything about john titor? in a nutshell he is an alleged time traveler that "time traveled" from 2034 to 2001 on a government mission. you must take it with a grain of salt. sure it sounds absolutely preposterous, but i reccomend listening to the 4 hour coast to coast episode on him. he made compelling predictions that are coming true every day. namely the unheard of technology he claimed that his time machine ran on back in 2001. he claimed that the power source was mini black holes and that the technology wouldn't be created until 2005 in swizerland. well, it has came true this year. crazy, yeah? true, probably not. entertaining? heck yes! if you are aware of stephen hawking and his brilliant theories, they support what this john titor says. just check it out. there is a website www.johntitor.com

p.s. i subscribe to coast to coasts online website which enables me to download mp3 episodes of every episode within 90 days. i have entire john titor episode if anyone is interested in it. if i can find a way to email or post it online for you, i will if requested.

also, the entire mel's hole episode is available for free download at this website. i just found it.

if you have some time to kill, this stuff is fascinating trust me.

John Titor- "would guess the temporal divergence between this world line and my original is about 1 or 2 percent. Of course, the longer I am here, the larger that divergence becomes from my point of view."

I don't understand. I wish he would just express these things in units of "world line" rather than percentage of total "world line."

Posted by: josh at March 18, 2005 07:28 PM

Let me say I LOVE C2C as well. When I'm up late enough and driving anywhere I always listen. In fact, visiting Indiana this xmas I got stuck in a snowdrift with my in-laws in their mini-van from 10:00PM-6:00AM and if it wasn't for George Noory I woulda been bored stiff. (And if it wasn't for the fact the engine kept running I woulda been frozen stiff. Brrrrrrrr...)

I'm so excited about this John Titor stuff. Civil War between rural and city dwelling Americans? I can't wait to shoot me some snooty city folk! :D

I knew my army training would pay off someday. Maybe they'll make me a general in the redneck army.

Also, I'm glad the world is ending sooner than later. I'm tired of waiting.

One more thing:

Now if we can just turn everyone gay John Titor's future will cease to exist.

"They took our jobs!!!"

Re: You must define a Comment Pending

How does one bypass this error message? I keep getting it when I try to post to another website, and my comment doesn't get posted.
