Not really the King of Slacking, but more like the King of Insomniacs.

Good Morning fellow Slackers!
Hi THX, dapper,and ded.

Long time no see Dark lord of the Garlic, Stellar, and tiger. Welcome back!! I hope you all can stick around and slack a little longer.

Im going up to campus today so my slacking may get a little slim today. I'll make up for all that slacking when I get back to work.

ded - I'm using a PC laptop, constructing the pages in Netscape Composer and tweaking graphics in photoshop...

Composer is the real problem as it is quite limited - do you know of any web-design software I can download from anywhere...?

hey there TarynS - missed you yesterday... need your pic ASAP...

dapper_bloke, try downloading the 30day trial demo of Macromedia Dreamweaver from www.macromedia.com. I'm going to send you some of my stuff in a ziped up folder by email to the swmcmmj adress, unzip it and look at swmcmmj.html.

Oh and, goodnight rookie zzzz

Jedi Knight TarynS, I don't know why I can't sleep really...this usually happens while I'm on summer break. And yes, I will be joining you slackers.

dapper Macromedia Dreamweaver is probably your best bet, although if you know basic raw HTML then I like Hot Dog Pro - you can get hold of trial versions of this as well.

You'rr in London aren't you? .net magazine used to have trial versions of most of the popular editors on it's cover CD.

I'm a Cali Insomniac as well...must be something about California summers
Anyway, so I'm really serious about this slacker mind control thing...it is real. How else could I accomplish so much while doing so little. Yes, manipulating the minds of authority figures is much fun, but I must know if I tread too close to the dark side.

ded, I had a feeling someone from around here designed them. Sorry for the robbery, but you really should provide an e-mail address so we can ask permision. If I remember correctly, someone else pointed me to your graphics, so you're famous!

good morining slackers...

i see we were hard at work last night...

this morning i have a story to tell...

at the end of my shift yesterday i was going through the normal routine of filing some loose papers, cleaning out my internet history and my cache, and shutting down the computer. i was waiting for the litlle orange
" it is now safe to turn off your computer "
to show up when suddenly a full screen picture of Darth Maul's ugly mug appeared with the caption " at last you may turn off your computer "...


i didn't put this on my computer.

i wouldn't even now how to.

is this some sort of sign, or have my co-workers played their first trick on me ?
the funny thing is... i'm never away from desk long enough during the day for someone to alter my shutdown screen in this way, and at lunch i shut my system down, so no one but the IT department could have logged on and changed things.

could they be on to me ?


stay tuned

gundark,

I think someone has decieved you.. there is a file that contains the shutdown "image" -the orange writing. It is possible to put another picture in it's place.

I can't remember the name of the file, If I do I'll let you know.

It is too cool though Dart Maul every time you shut your PC down.

Good morning everyone. Hi gundark, Amy, TarynS, ded, THX, dapper, rookie, Garlic etc.

Hey TarynS, my web page sucks but it will be better. My buddy in Virginia who is a puter tech is going to meet with me this weekend via ICQ and he already has 5 MP3's of my band's music to add to the page.
The address is: http://www.homestead.com/wildnewangels/wildnewangels.html

There really is nothing there yet though because I don't know what I am doing and the edit function on the page sucks and I don't know how to write html. It does have a guest list though if anyone whants to sign up and give me pointers.

Good morning from the *SAUCIEST* slacker.

I was hoping I had the pictures from the beach house in May where I sat in the hot tub all day drinking rum & Cokes and reading "Us" magazine, but no go.

Creepio--love the Fear and Loathing look. The batswatter is a nice touch.

Let another fine day of slacking commence!

dapper bloke, the web page is looking great!

Good Morning all and welcome back TarynS, your presence was missed yesterday and welcome aboard new slacker Amee Amy Ami! (sp?) Anyway, it's been a busy couple of days and I've actually had to work, but things should slow down today and hopefully I'll be able to get in some good slacking.
So until next time, MTSBWY!

Hey gang! Long time no see....

It seems that lots has been going on here! All I can say is WOW!!

Hi TarynS! Thanks for thinking of me. I probably won't be around much anymore since I've quit my job to go back to grad school (after almost 4 years). But I will try to check in or at least pop in for a cocktail in the lounge every now and then.

Until then....

Here we go:

Slacker of the Week: dapper_bloke
This was awarded yesterday (for obvious reasons) but I had to recognize the greatness that is the new swmcmmj website once again.

Best New Slacker Technique: Not really a technique, more of a slacker insight goes to Hacienda51 for her quote, "True slackers never act fast." How true, how true.

Most Enthusiastic Slacker: Three way tie
Sandfarmer
Obi Two
THX1204

Best Post: By far Darth Tater's little Leia-Shoots-Stormtroopers-And-Then-Vader-Shows-Up Movie. That represents the essence of pure slack.

Keep up the good work, slackers. Make the slack proud!

Thanks for the award Creepio. It is good to see that there are some folks in the forum who don't hate me.

I'd like to take this moment to thank all those who helped me win. I'd like to thank Jasman, Preacher Boy and all the administrators who upset me so much this past week that I had to slack double time. I'd like to thank my boss for providing my computer here at work which has destroyed my productivity but made me strong in the ways of the slack. I'd like to thank C Creepio, the inspiration behind the slack and last but not least, I'd like to thank my cat (The Pit Droid) for making me coffee each morning. Thanks

Now back to the slack.

WARNING***WARNING***WARNING
Don't forget that the past several Thursdays in a row the forum has basically imploded on itself and we have been moved, shut down or deleted. Let's keep our fingers crossed that we make it through the day.

The Sandfarmer I have been impressed with your posts over the last week, although I think jasman and PB are not going to see things from our point of view!

Hey, that means we've been here in Misc for a week and no one has died or killed an administrator yet. Yes, the slack is good. The slack surrounds us and binds us. Even between the basher and the slacker. Even between the member...and the administrator.

Slack on.
