OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

I know.  I'm just miffed that you're getting five points to my one for the same guy.

But, that's my fault.

Also, it really sucks that JD Salinger died.  Maybe if he had emerged from his recusal from these many years, more people would know who he is, as opposed to the millions of high school freshman.

Did some waitress at lunch mention this to you, as well as let you know who JD Salinger was?

When my sophomore English teacher assigned Catcher In The Rye to us, I was excited.

Then I realized it wasn't about baseball.

QuoteCORNISH, NH—In this big dramatic production that didn't do anyone any good (and was pretty embarrassing, really, if you think about it), thousands upon thousands of phonies across the country mourned the death of author J.D. Salinger, who was 91 years old for crying out loud. "He had a real impact on the literary world and on millions of readers," said hot-shot English professor David Clarke, who is just like the rest of them, and even works at one of those crumby schools that rich people send their kids to so they don't have to look at them for four years. "There will never be another voice like his." Which is exactly the lousy kind of goddamn thing that people say, because really it could mean lots of things, or nothing at all even, and it's just a perfect example of why you should never tell anybody anything.

That book showed up at my house the day Salinger died. I ordered it and all. But it was almost weird.
