It's not too early to get this one going. Nothing new right this second, but I'll start by quoting the first post of the archived version:

Sometimes people say things in their posts that are just great, and I always wish I could remember them all. Let this thread be the place to store quotes from posts. Please, don't post frivolous stuff of your own, just other people's pithy words, with full attribution! I'll start with this one from H.L. Jones :

"Man if jazz is dead there is some jammin ass Ghosts."
- post 76 in thread "Is jazz dead?" (05-31-2001 / 09:04 PM)

Edit: I just realized the posts aren't numbered here like they were in the old joint. At the bottom of each post it gives the date and time, we'll just have to use those.

A cop got me dead to rights today doing 49 in a 30 zone. He's right. He's got me by radar. I am sure I was committing the crime.

So how do I fight it in court?

"Bring all the personal baggage to the art (as creator or reciever) you want, but if that's ALL that's 'there', what do you have other than the equivalent of a newspaper clipping or a foo-fooey boo-hooey chop suey diary entry? If that's all there is to art, then the phone book is a fukkin' priceless masterpiece suitable for framing! There needs to be more to it than that, I think. The establishment of the self is indeed necessary, but after that is accomplished, it's time to give it up and turn it loose, and let it be a new day. So let a man come in and do the popcorn."

It is news to me that a public school can be allowed to be absolutely totalitarian in its self-appointed police powers over students and their behavior "anywhere in the United States or a foreign country." This is not "en loco parentus." This is en parentus loco. Insane parenting, in short.

Sergio Zamora/ Fire in My Heart thread/ 10/15

°°°°°°°°°°°°°

It's taken years of alternately achieving and avoiding creativity, ingenuity, hard work, and initiative to discover that special zone above mediocrity but below excellence which I call the "go with the flow" zone. It's the zone in which you know people value your work, but don't really look at you as the go-to guy. It's that rare zone where you can almost certainly keep your job and do, you know, some nice work, but not necessarily be expected to come up with the solution to every problem.

It's been tough getting there, and I can't say I'm there yet: that foul demon of vanity still sneaks its ugly head every once in a while, especially during meetings when I can't help but volunteer some brilliant, elegant, and well-thought solution to some technical problem. But the day will come when I will be able to keep my mouth shut. Ah yes, perfect anonymity.

It just showed a quiet, sundappled street in Suburban Anywhere, USA, where, one guesses since no one's in the picture, that only white folks live, and happily ever after at that. No talking. At the very end, the print appeared and all it said (in silence) was Reagan-Bush. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Millions of American idiots found it utterly soothing. And that's of course the main thing, soothing them, so as not to interrupt their pleasant life of grazing while the world goes by, like Holsteins beside a country lane.

Is there ever a time when a woman might, under various circumstances, allow her body to be used sexually for profit, pleasure or psyhcologically emotional happenstance?

I have consistantly voiced the concern of women rape victims and how incredibly difficult it is to bring them to a point where they will bring an accusation against an accuser.

One times we did it like 8 times in a weekend. I felt like stuck to her groin.

So anyways, she was into manufacturing figures and all of that hoo-ha, and we needless to say broke up, starvin' artist that I was.

"Keep your chin up," the hag says. " I says, "Screw you, lady."

So I gets this email from her 'bout two months ago, right, and she says she just got divorced from the dude after me, after like 15 years and she wants to see how I was. Yeah, and I got a real nice bridge down in Niagara Falls, clown.

Holy fuck.

All sarcasm aside, that looks like something Jacques Derrida would've written in the 1970s. Especially the use of "singular" in brackets.

No shit, we've been wrong about the Goodster all along. His mission is to show us how the signified ultimately has no independent [singular] being outside of its being brought into scope by its signifiers.

I'm confused by your many questions of me GS, so feel compelled to respond, in brief. I feel somewhat silly re-stating what should be obvious to you and others here, but ...

• I believe that slavery occurred and was a bad thing.

• I believe that Rosa Parks had many issues, and based upon what I know of her, they were likely valid ones.

• I appreciated many but not all things associated with Martin Luther King, Jr.

• I have no clue as to what your last paragraph means or what its relationship with me might be.

Trying to navigate through Schnittke's ouvre is like running drunk through a mine field - you never know when you take a wrong step. I like some of his works but some leaves me less than impressed, and the Requiem counts among the latter. It sounds to me as if Schnittke tries so very hard to create as doomy an atmosphere as possible that he only ends up with a mess of goth clichés and silly Orffian overtones. A requiem with a clown nose. How great.

That sounds pretty much like what I did, but AFAIK, one has to be in JC's WYSIWYG mode to do it:

User CP ---> Edit Options ---> Miscellaneous Options (way down at the bottom) ---> Message Editor Interface ---> Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing

Scott--

1. Were you in the WYSIWYG mode when you did that?

2. "Right click and save." There's no Save option on the drop-down menu that I see when I right-click (in IE6). I didn't click on "Save" anywhere (or Save anything--at least not manually); I just copied and pasted. Could you explain what you meant by "save"?

Then I just added and subtracted things at will, which sometimes produced hard-to-fix glitches in formatting and sometimes worked fine. I also boldfaced the quoted poster's words.

Pete--

One can pick up material from other websites and post it on JC in the same way, but I still can't get some kinds of "screenshots" and in fact had planned to ask how other people did it.

Sure, Pete.What do you mean by "screenshots"?Exact replicas of whatever appears on one's screen, including identical formatting. One thing that I could never get a screenshot of: message or dialogue boxes that are generated by Windows or IE and pop up on the screen. (I couldn't even capture an "inexact" copy of them.) But I haven't tried doing that in JC's WYSIWYG mode yet.

Hmmmm....

Well, if I'm understanding you correctly, the only way I know of to do that is to "print screen" and open it up in WordPad, or whatever you use, from the clipboard.

If there's an easier way, I sure as hell don't know what it is.

I thought the ability to do this existed for a while, although I never tried it. Albertson always used to insert screenshots of the editorials he'd post that showed the letterhead of the publication, such as the L.A. Times, Washington Post, etc. I don't think he ever figured out how to type his own text, though.

Speaking of spelling, bub, the correct spelling is voilà, not "wah-lah." :)

After you hit the print screen button and open up WordPad, are you clicking on the clipboard icon at the top?


Is the icon greyed out?

Under windows print screen should always put the screen print to the clipboard--it has nothing to do with setting up a printer. If I hit print screen, then open up ms word, I can right click and paste it into a document; it works in Lotus email at work, so I assume it also works with outlook. But I can't paste it here.

I'm just messing up one or more steps of the few simple steps. I don't know how. I'll try it again sometime; I don't want to mess with it right now. But thanks.

</TD><TD class=alt1><!-- message -->Fortunately, George W. Bush is making it His tippy-top priority to lead 5,000 unsaved almost-Americans to Christ each and every week through January, 2009. That's a mighty big quota – and a great and glorious task! But, just as before our glorious Christian Crusade commenced in Iraq, Mr. Bush said, "I feel a victory coming on! Praise!" Verily, we here at the White House Department of Faith will not rest until each and every one of you gets on bended knee and super-sizes his faith in Jesus! This administration may not be able to protect you from the common flu, but we can at least inoculate from the far more horrifying prospect of eternal anal gang rape by monstrously endowed demons in both Guantanamo Bay and the Hereafter! :eek: Have a nice day :D

From the second Paris Hilton thread, on February-25th-2005, 12:10 AM:

She looks like if you touch her she'll leave an unsightly (and possibly carcinogenic) residue. I imagine putting my ear close to her belly button and hearing "the mechanized hum of another world," as our dear friends Becker & Fagan might say.

Pete in the chops vs feeling thread

I'm only saying that if an artist with great chops is flashy and shallow it's because that artist is prone to flashiness and shallowness, and that without the technique he would be merely shallow.

Those play party dances remind me of desert flowers -- even in the most inhospitable of environments, dancing finds a way to emerge and live.

</TD><TD class=alt1><!-- message -->I am coming to think Taku-san is deliberately painting himself into a corner, with his gradual improvisational self-erasure. This gambit makes him rare, where risk-taking is at stake, also assuring that bracing high wire act, where he may collapse, or somehow extend his beautiful work even further.

He's writing on water, playing against the accretion that makes for so much busyness in improv. I can't imagine where he's headed, which is cool.

Monte Smith, on the "Unsolicited Testimonials" thread, #23, posted March 31, 2005:

"I have a writer friend in New York who likes nothing better than to get high and conduct transactions. It really doesn't matter what the transaction is, he gets off on the potentiality inherent in Manhattan commerce and in the exacting manner of a commercial exchange. A thermal-printed receipt is like a prayer written in God's own hand to John when he is in this state. We may all scoff at the banality of a consumer society, but I agree with John that there is something pure in the infinite combination of small forces that allows a stoned dullard to walk into a Duane Reade and buy a lipstick, a halo around his features redolent of Adam Smith. In a hundred years, given all the chemicals in the world, John could never make a lipstick. If capitalism was fettered, or if John wasn't so high, that lipstick would just be a dream."

Scott is correct. My wife is always shushing me. I don't know why I'm so loud; I don't mean to be. (If I ever start to lose my hearing I'll be a terror, I'm sure.) On the other hand, it's probably my best asset as a singer. You may not think I'm any good, but by god you're going to hear me. :)
