One of the many things that can be done to help fill out the archive a bit is to locate as much missing album art as possible. There are a lot of albums with that white screen that says 'Image Not Available'. Looks a bit untidy. I've been doing some of that while fixing details here and there now that I have access to the album page editing again and I would think, 'I can't possibly find all these album cover pictures myself.' So if you wish to help and see an album with no cover art and can find the picture (JPEG or GIF & 300 x 300 is the optimum size, but smaller will still fill the whole box on a song page), you can post them here and I'll put them on the album page. Right after I deal with all the shoveling and/or flooding from this next upcoming sh¡tstorm. F-ing weather...

When Devospice sang (or is it "rapped"?) "Everything hurts or makes a funny noise" in "Getting Old Sucks", he wasn't kidding. And I can tell you it doesn't get any better as you get older. I'll just say, "Thank Satan for powerful pharmaceuticals" and leave it at that. I wanted to go shopping today, but noooooo! I got out of bed and my back said, "You're not going anywhere today, asshole! Take some damn pills and sit your spavined ass down and write a blog entry or something or I'm gonna hurt ya!"
Besides, I've already been out this week. Had another hospital visit for another neck ultrasound to make sure I remain cancer-free. They want to do yet another full body scan to make sure it hasn't spread. Fun stuff... It's not just illegal aliens clogging emergency rooms for free medical care that keeps your insurance premiums high. It's all the "defensive medicine" as well. Though it's probably necessary in my case. Well, that's enough of that...
Last week, editing access to the album pages was returned to me and I immediately took to adding some album cover art here and there and fixing titles and such. When full access is worked out, I'll declare another "big page fix" similar to the one last spring in which all the annotated song pages in the archive got their info and lyrics cleaned up, corrected and such and all the vulgar crap & stupid graffiti that idiots posted there got eliminated. This time, everything will get fixed, so I'll have something to have a go at around here for a very...long...time.
Meanwhile, the Cap'n wants to compartmentalize some of the page annotation in 'bite-size' tasks to make it easier so one volunteer can concentrate on one thing. This will make things easier for me and give me more time for the aforementioned "big page fix" when I get the rest of the access I need for that.
He also seems to want a 'dementia' news department of some kind with an 'events editor' to post schedules for cons & other upcoming events and such. Maybe to make this your "one stop site for all things demented". I suggested Terri or Pete as they take particular interest in that sort of thing and post that stuff. I don't. I'm like Rick Moranis' "agoraphobic cowboy"; "I ain't goin' nowhere". It would be nice if Wayne would tell me what he decided about all that. Maybe this weekend...

I'm told it's a seasonal thing, but it always bothers me to see ½ of the active membership vanish in a month. Yup, half. Go ahead and look, I'll wait.... 1100+ down from 2200, right? Not good. A page of flash games or another contest; a continuous one running months resulting in albums sellable in the mp3 store (yes, just like the FuMP) might help. Just a thought.
There's been a spate of title misspellings pointed out of late. When I'm feeling better, (and since I still can't fix them myself-- grumble) I'll complete a new error list (14) for Wayne to have a go at when he's feeling better.
And I need to paint this damn ceiling. I think 34 years is long enough to go between paintings. It'd make this room brighter as well. Dark in here. At least I don't have to decide on the color. Not like the kitchen. Can't decide, but anything's better than the horrid '70s colors I'm looking at now. It's so groovy, I just wanna vomit. Then the color would improve considerably.

January 8 - 1 pm
Yesterday, I was coming back from switching out a dead car battery and other fun chores when shortly after, my quiet little rural side street was ass deep in fire trucks. It seems the elderly woman who lives across from me had taken a bad turn and 'lost control of her faculties' as they say- allegedly, of course. Her house of 38 years caught fire somehow and the horde of cats she had all died of smoke inhalation. She was all right and there was lots of smoke, but never any visible flames from my view. There's now just an empty house with boarded up windows there. She's fortunate enough to have relatives she can move in with. Some of us dread such an occurrence because we aren't so fortunate.
Where the hell was I going with this? Oh yeah. Sometimes 'dementia' is real and it can gut your house. Alzheimer's sucks, but having no relatives to rely on sucks more. More fun sh1t to look forward to...
For now, I'm going to hold off on compiling a new error list (14) and just annotate pages that require alteration until the Cap'n decides on and/or finishes the code for the access needed for me to be able to properly edit things that need editing. He's busy with the new podcasts & other new features, so it can all sit for a while.
In other news, it's 61 F-ing degrees out right now after being 0° for a good portion of last week! That's New England weather for you.

Great bouncing icebergs! I look outside and I see....great bouncing icebergs. Yes, it's a crispy 0° with a -17° wind chill out there and everything's covered with ice. A bit like Martha Stewart's nether regions. Even the asphalt aardvarks at the end of my driveway are covered with a foot of snow and look like they could use a week or 2 in Ibiza. It's a good day to generally 'not go out and freeze solid in 3 seconds'. Maybe just sit here and type smartass blog entries or something. There's an idea...
Well, Wayne's all caught up with the shows, as much of the damage from last week's Chinese injection attack (I still think that sounds like a kinky sex act) as possible has been fixed and there are lots of new Monty Python song pages to have a go at and generally divert my attention from all that Arctic hell outside.
Global warming, my ass! Drag those deranged tree hugging jackoffs out of Malibu and Hollywood and all those other "no F-ing blizzards" sort of places and up here to New England to have a look at their "global warming". When they got done chipping the ice off of their minuscule private parts, they might think differently about things...
Annnyway, before the attacks, Wayne was altering things a bit so it would be possible for me to fix more things myself and not have to constantly send him big honking 'error lists' full of piddling minutia. I hope he can still do it. I'd like to fix as many page problems as possible so they don't carry over to the next site update, so 'error list 14' would be a whopper.
Now that I've had a bit of time to think about it, I remember a bit more of what got erased from the blogs last month. It seems I was ranting about how the instant messaging had been down for so long that when it was fixed (a couple weeks before the attacks), I got months worth of them all at once and I suddenly didn't feel quite right about not having answered them since some were proper editor-type questions- although I never got them when they were sent and trying to answer them now when they were all out of context would be pointless. I then offered to answer any that anyone wanted to send again if they remembered.
Yeah, that was it. It always comes back to me eventually. ...I just wanted to mention all that.

December 30 - 9 am
Now where the hell was I before those maniacs who "only come up to your knees" and most certainly aren't "always friendly and ready to please" shanghaied us and erased a month of these blogs?
Oh, yeah. I remember now. Nothing's changed. It seems yet another sh1tstorm full of heart attack inducer is bearing down on this area just itching to bring massive coronaries, needless car repairs and/or total exhaustion to guys like me. Good thing I lost all that weight. Too bad I never got in shape. Plenty of opportunity now. Crap...
And just like last time, here's another one of these-
That terrier hates snow shovels as much as I do. He'd better watch his furry little ass or he'll find himself in a pet shop aquarium 'converted' into a fish. "Terriers make lovely fish"... [GET ON WITH IT!] Oh, all right.
I have a vague recollection of going on about the addition to the Help page I wrote and how I forgot an important detail in it. The whole point of the new downloading instruction was to have some text to direct newbies to as they were always asking about it, but what good is it if it's incomplete? My bad. I sent Wayne a fix for it, but he's got way too much to deal with at the moment, so....
- 3:45 pm
Whoa, hold on thar, Tex. I just noticed the revised text has been added to the Help page, so there's no need for it to be posted here now. The 'help' link is now visible on the toolbar also. I guess he had some time after all. Thanks, Cap'n.
So all that's left for me to do is try to remember what else I was ranting about in the month of blogs that got erased by the latest Red Menace. That and shoveling a few (more) tons of snow. And installing a new battery into the 'country sh1tbox'. I'd rather avoid those last things...

Testing- blah, blah, rubber hamsters etc. HTML must be bad... Crap, crap, crap!...11:04 Tried HTML again. More errors...11:39..It works! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Exxxxellent, Smithers. Things seem to be working all right for a while. I'll write this with the knowledge that the Chinese might zap it again at any time. Right now, 'I don't like Chinese'. Wayne still wants to nuke them. I think WalMart would be annoyed. They'd have to have their cheap crap made in Bulgaria the way they used to. And I think the fallout over Japan would affect my steady supply of anime & J-Pop. Mmmmm....anime. Wow. 2 Simpsons references inside of 10 minutes. Haven't watched it in years...
After a good deal of effort on Wayne's part, the damage is now confined to things input during the last month. With any luck, things are now tighter than a pretty boy at Folsom's Sadie Hawkins Day Dance. Know what I mean, nudge nudge, say no more.
Now that the HTML is working again, my little 'font size' solution for stacking these entries is back also. Though I can't quite decide how I want it to look. Oh, well.

fiogf49gjkf0d It was slowing a bit before we posted them. Two months is long enough for stringing these entries out, anyway.
And as Billy Connolly says:
"Eff yer gonna shag a sheep, take it to the edge of a cliff so's et pushes back better."
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d It starts to slow down with the embedded videos.
"I'm really going to have to start a new blog thingy. 5Mg broadband & a gig of RAM and it's still starting to load slow".
Ewe!
"Either that or buy more RAM. (insert sheep jokes here...)"
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d True enough. But there's one sketch that fits that description better than any other....
I'm really going to have to start a new blog thingy. 5Mg broadband & a gig of RAM and it's still starting to load slow. Either that or buy more RAM. (insert sheep jokes here...) Maybe when I'm done pumping the flood out of my basement.

fiogf49gjkf0d I agree it definitely is better visually, with John Cleese's funny expressions. We can't quite do it justice in a script.
|

fiogf49gjkf0d Terri, thanks for that clip on the skit. Now I can see what you all are taking about.

fiogf49gjkf0d Interviewer: Very good marks.
Stig: Oh, oh well, do I get the job?
Interviewer: Er, well, I'm afraid not. I'm afraid all the vacancies were filled several weeks ago.
(They fall about laughing. Cut to man sitting at desk.)
Career Advisor: Well, that was all good fun, and we all had a jolly good laugh, but I would like to assure you that you'd never be treated like that if you had an interview here at the Careers Advisory Board. Perhaps I should introduce myself. I am the Head of the Careers Advisory Board. I wanted to be a doctor, but there we are. I'm Head of the Careers Advisory Board. (emotionally) Or a sculptor, something artistic, or an engineer, with all those dams, but there we are, it's no use crying over split milk, the facts are there and that's that. I'm the head of this lousy board! (he weeps, then recovers) Never mind, now I wonder if you've ever considered what a very profitable line of work this man is in....
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Stig: What's going on? What's going on?
Interviewer: You've got very good marks.
Stig: (hysterically) Well I don't care, I want to know what's going on! I think you're deliberately trying to humiliate people, and I'm going straight out of here and I'm going to tell the police exactly what you do to people and I'm going to make bloody sure that you never do it again. There, what do you think of that? What do you think of that?
(The judges give him very high marks.)
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Stig: Oh dear, we're back to that again. I don't know what to do when you do that.
Interviewer: Well, do something. Goodnight. Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding, five, four, three, two, one . . .(Stig pulls face and makes noise) Good!
Stig: Good?
Interviewer: Very good - do it again. (Stig pulls face and makes noise) Very good' indeed, quite outstanding. (Interviewer goes to door) Ah, right. (calls through door) Ready now. (four people come in and line up by desk) Right, once more. (rings bell) Goodnight, ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding.
(Stig very cautiously pulls face and makes noise. Interviewer rings bell again. Suddenly the four men all hold up points cards like diving or skating judges.)
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Stig: No, no Thomas.
Interviewer: Thomas Shaw?
Stig: No, no, David Thomas.
Interviewer: (long look, rings bell) Goodnight. Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding- ding-ding-ding. Goodnight. Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Interviewer: Name?
Stig: What?
Interviewer: Your name man, your name!
Stig: Um, er...David.
Interviewer: David. Sure?
Stig: Oh yes.
Interviewer: (writing) David Shaw.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Stig: I'm sorry, I'm confused.
Interviewer: Well why do you think I did that then?
Stig: Well I don't know.
Interviewer: Aren't you curious?
Stig: Well yes.
Interviewer: Well, why didn't you ask me?
Stig: Well...I...er...
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Interviewer: Why do you say that?
Stig: Well, I don't know.
Interviewer: Do you say it because you didn't know?
Stig: Well. I, I, I, I don't know.
Interviewer: Five, four, three, two, one, zero! Right!
(makes face and strange noise)
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Interviewer: Too late! (singing) Goodnight, ding-ding-ding-ding-ding. Goodnight. Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding.
Stig: Um. Oh this is, is the interview for the management training course is it?
Interviewer: (Rings bell) Yes. Yes it is. Goodnight. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Stig: Oh. Oh dear, I don't think I'm doing very well.
Interviewer: Why do you say that?
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Interviewer: Ha, ha. No. (rings small hand-bell) ... Aren't you going to ask me why I rang the bell? (rings bell again)
Stig: Er why did you ring the bell?
Interviewer: Why do you think I rang the bell? (shouts) Five, four, three, two, one, zero!
Stig: Well, I, I...
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Stig: Well, well, you said 'good morning'. Ha, ha.
Interviewer: (shakes head) Good afternoon.
Stig: Ah, good afternoon.
Interviewer: Oh dear. (writes again) Good evening.
Stig: ... Goodbye?
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Interviewer: Take a seat. (Stig does so) Ah! (writes again) Good morning.
Stig: Good morning.
Interviewer: ....Good morning.
Stig: Good morning.
Interviewer: (writes) Tell me, why did you say 'good morning' when you know perfectly well that it's afternoon?
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Stig: Thank you. (he sits)
Interviewer: (stares at him and starts writing) Would you mind just standing up again for one moment. (stands up) Take a seat.
Stig: I'm sorry.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d You know I really enjoy interviewing applicants for this management training course. (knock at door) Come in. (Stig enters) Ah. Come and sit down.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Oh, ok...
Garkbit: Mr. Zaphod Beeblebrox?
Zaphod: Er...Yeah?
Garkbit: There is a phone call for you.
Zaphod: Here?! Hey, but who knows where I am?
Trillian: Zaphod, perhaps it's the police...could they have traced us here?
Zaphod: You mean they want to arrest me over the phone? Could be, I'm a pretty dangerous dude when I'm cornered.
Ford: Yeah, you go to pieces so fast that people get hit by the shapnel.
(Wait...I don't think that was it...)
>.. Ignore this and please continue where you left off.
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Old Woman: It's nice enough, but do you know where I can get a jolly comfortable Chesterfield.....?
Perhaps take some of David Tanny's old playlists and turn them into..... hold on..... that was a completely different topic thread..... Ignore this and please continue where you left off.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Biggles: Yes, lord.
Ximinez: I see. I suppose we make it worse by shouting a lot, do we? Confess, woman. Confess! Confess! Confess! Confess!
Biggles: I confess!
Ximinez: Not you!
Old Woman: It's nice enough, but do you know where I can get a jolly comfortable Chesterfield.....?

fiogf49gjkf0d (JARRING CHORD - Zoom into Fang's horrified face)
Fang: (terrified) The...Comfy Chair?
(Biggles pushes in the chair)
Ximenez: So you think you are strong because you can survive the soft cushions. Well, we shall see. Biggles! Put her in the Comfy Chair!
(They roughly push her into the Comfy Chair)
Ximenez: (with a cruel leer) Now...you will stay in the Comfy Chair until lunch time, with only a cup of coffee at eleven. (aside, to Biggles) Is that really all it is?
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Biggles: It doesn't seem to be hurting her, lord.
Ximinez: Have you got all the stuffing up one end?
Biggles: Yes, lord.
Ximinez: (angrily hurling away the cushions) Hm! She is made of harder stuff! Cardinal Fang! Fetch...THE COMFY CHAIR!
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Ximenez: Right! If that's the way you want it - Cardinal! Poke her with the soft cushions!
(Biggles carries out this rather pathetic torture)
Ximenez: Confess! Confess! Confess!
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Old Lady: I don't know what you're talking about.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Ximenez: Ha! Then we'll make you understand! Biggles! Fetch...THE CUSHIONS!
(JARRING CHORD - Biggles holds out two ordinary modern household cushions)
Biggles: Here they are, lord.
Ximenez: Now, old lady - you have one last chance. Confess the heinous sin of heresy; reject the works of the ungodly - *two* last chances. And you shall be free - *three* last chances. You have three last chances, the nature of which I have divulged in my previous utterance.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d I don't understand what I'm accused of.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d (Jarring chord The door flies open and Ximenez, Biggles and Fang enter.)
Ximenez: Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
(Cut to film: moving over Brengel drawing of tortures; epic film music.)
Voice Over: 'IN THE EARLY YEARS OF THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY, TO COMBAT THE RISING TIDE OF RELIGIOUS UNORTHODOXY, THE POPE GAVE CARDINAL XIMENEZ OF SPAIN LEAVE TO MOVE WITHOUT LET OR HINDRANCE THROUGHOUT THE LAND, IN A REIGN OF VIOLENCE, TERROR AND TORTURE THAT MAKES A SMASHING FILM. THIS WAS THE SPANISH INQUISITION . . .'
(Torchlit dungeon. We hear clanging footsteps. Shadows on the Grille. The footsteps stop and keys jangle. The great door creaks open and Ximenez walks in and looks round approvingly. Fang and Biggles enter behind pushing in the dear old lady. They chain her to the wall.)
Ximenez: Now, old woman! You are accused of heresy on three counts. Heresy by thought, heresy by word, heresy by deed, and heresy by action. Four counts. Do you confess?
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Oh! I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d A new page may have been made because of the new podcast's Watt White songs. Since WWIII is a project of his (or so says his MySpace page), then the songs should be consolidated and put on his individual artist page and the duplicate page erased. Another little project for when & if I get the needed access or, as always, Wayne can do it if he sees this.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d the Watt White and WWIII pages should be combined considering it's the same person.

fiogf49gjkf0d Immediate album accessibility has always been a problem. I may have asked for it in the past, but I'll request it again for the next site upgrade on that thread. As for the other, do what you feel comfortable doing. Wayne just wants to focus individual tasks to make things easier. This will free me to take on a very large fix project when I get the rest of the access. I'd like to do it before the next upgrade.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d I had volunteered for albums, but it's going to be hard to do since there is no separate albums module. Anyway, it seems like you do a lot of work on albums. Terri seems to be good with events. I may want to try and do news items. Or maybe just annoy people like I currently do...
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Right, it's not. I've marked the page for now. Kyle can decide which name he wants on his page, then the songs & info can be consolidated into one page. Wayne can fix it if he sees this or I'll fix it when I get access to all that. I missed a few fixes in the last error list, so I'll put it in the new one (15) if need be.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d "Bob From Accounting" is listed on both TV's Kyle and Kyle Carosa Artist page. The Kyle Carosa page seems to be duplicate and I don't think it is the correct spelling.

fiogf49gjkf0d Wayne,
As always Yarrr the greatest!

|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Thanks Marcus - I misfiled the song sample - fixed.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d One of the ways we know this is a silly election is that in recent times, the number of votes cast had very little to do with who "won".
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Well pretty much as I predicted, except that the Silly party won. Er, I think this is largely due to the number of votes cast.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d I'm gonna vote for Malcolm Peter Brian Telescope Adrian Blackpool Rock Stoatgobbler John Raw Vegetable Brrroooo Norman Michael (rings bell) (blows whistle) Edward (sounds car horn) (does train impersonation) (sounds buzzer) Thomas Moo... (sings) "We'll keep a welcome in the..." (fires gun) William (makes silly noise) "Raindrops keep falling on my" (weird noise) "Don't sleep in the subway" (cuckoo cuckoo) Naaoooo... Smith.
But seriously, maybe we could put a banner ad on The Fump.com to steer the people here.
Terri M.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d You can never have enough silliness. We're going to have another 'silly election' at the end of the year. Though this one seems to have started early last year. Gonna vote for Jethro Q. Walrustitty. We need the Silly Party right about now.

|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Well spotted again, Pete. I've marked the duplicate page so Wayne can combine them. I'm hoping I'll soon have more access so I can fix this sort of thing without having to compile any more huge honking 'error lists'. Wayne has ambitious plans for the site this year and doing giant fix lists only slows things down. So more access soon, hopefully.
And, of course....
Don't call me Señor! I'm not a Spanish person. You must call me Mr. Biggles, or Group Captain Biggles or Mary Biggles if I'm dressed as my wife, but never Señor. I've never even been to Spain.
(But I kinda like the music. This is part of the bit we were doing before it all got wiped out last month. The old fashioned TV phrase is "This is where we came in".)

|
fiogf49gjkf0d The Chaston and Groditski Artist Page should be combined with the Pete Chaston and Walt Groditski Artist Page............Thanks Señor Editor.
|
|
|
fiogf49gjkf0d Yeah, that's what I did all summer, too. Though I gave up beer a while back and switched to hard liquor. I wish I had gotten around to fixing my shed. In April, when all this melts, the shed will fall apart and I'll be Stavro "No Sheds" Arrgolus. Or whatever.

Yes, yes... I remember that thread... and I STILL haven't repaired my driveway yet. I decided to sit on my asphalt and drink beer all summer.

That strawberry tart has three rubber hamsters in it. Rather a lot, really. Being rubber, they're not alive to begin with, but they were coughing up 'available tar' last night. ...That's quite a long callback.

Rubber hamsters, as some may remember, are made in Indonesia, not China, but they have a surprising amount of MSG in them (among other rather noxious things) and have therefore become a staple of Mandarin cuisine. They're almost as popular as chihuahuas. And cats. Lets not forget the cats...

I love eating Chinese food, but I always have to watch out for the stuff they put in their pot stickers. I wonder if they use ground aardvarks and fried rubber hamsters?

They're almost as popular as chihuahuas. And cats. Lets not forget the cats...

I love eating Chinese food, but I always have to watch out for the stuff they put in their pot stickers. I wonder if they use ground aardvarks and fried rubber hamsters?
