I'm sitting in this access database class, people are idiots.
HAY GUYS WOTS A TABLE
exactly, we spent like 20 minutes going over how to resize the rows and columns
i absolutely HATE access.... I have no comprehension of it at all....
does that make me an idiot? :(
No, in fact my opinion of you has just greatly increased. :) But seriously, Access is a terrible excuse for a database.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wo Ho!!! My mom is gone for the weekend and Im off today!! I think im gonna make blueberry pancakes (darn it i only have soy milk)
ahh i'm ridin' mad dirtyyy
Forresteee lunch next week
definitely in. can we go to red robin?
yea i hear good things about it..
at night it's always packed!
barrrrrrrrrrrrr
WOW i haven;t been to red robin in atleast 5 ish years, so weird to hear it again. haha
I hate breakfast time....
So, i had a very awkward moment this morning, first one like this in a very long time.
2 mornings a week, i meet a girl from work at the gym, so as we're walking out, the front desk lady asks us if we could sign this huge banner at the gym that says "Thank you for your support" (The US troops) so my co-worker says Sure! and signs, and i was just like, uhhh, no thanks...
and what makes it even worse is that her husband is a marine.
very.awkward.moment.
did she ask you why or werent going to sign or just looked at you?
no, she actually didnt do either, it was just felt awkward for me...especially b/c i was quickly trying to come up with something tactful to say.
Isn't it weird how you take your stand for so many years on everything and then little things like that can throw you for a loop? I think that's happened to us all.
exactly, in school, stuff like this happend all the time so you were used to it...it feels different when it's only every once in a while.
I'm moving to Mansfield/Hackettstown in 2 weeks.
seriously? Grats!
Yes sir. Thanks. I'm taking over my sister's old apartment for her. She can't afford it anymore.
sweet! now you and alex can hang out all the time!
seriously tho, u should join golds gym and go with us, theres a bball court
We hung out last Saturday. Good times! LOL!
Yeah I probably will since my current gym is in Mine Hill. Too far of a drive at that point. I need some Bball action. It was awesome exercise when we played Wednesdays at the school. Do they have a daycare?
Looks like they do...

Funny how the guy from Vancouver knows the answer. LOL!
Google is your friend.
why google it when you can monster it?
we should start an ask monster forum, we could post perplexing questions and try and stump your googling skills.
ps - did everyone see that google is now added in the dictionary, its a verb.
:-)
Don't forget Wikipedia. Another valuable tool in the monster arsenal.
Actually I would love for a car forum. Car technology, problems with your car( answers from monster ), maintenance, buying advice etc. But I don't think there is enough of a ground swell of interest for that type of thing.
just to verify monster's comment, yes they do
But they can't have scurvy or pink eye. LOL
it's about 8 am. i've been at work an hour and this day is going slow already. :/
hey, Kid! I hope things pick up for ya! I have a big day of service ahead of me, but I'm already tired. :/
ok, i'm not coming back til we can edit. i really crapped the bed on this one. that song INFRARED is by Placebo! NOT MASSIVE ATTACK! goodnight, Irene!
Song of the Night
Massive Attack- Infrared
Song of the Night
Massive - Infrared
Went to lunch (couldn't really eat anything) w/ a co-worker that I'd placed a book with. She had actually wanted to cheer me up (tears n all) but, we end up talking about things related to the book and now she wants to know where the nearest Kingdom Hall is in her area.
Cool! You gonna start studying with her?
good job Livy!
Me too!
( I am totally going to ignore your poem, the tears etc. I am going to stay positive! )
Good for you! For grasping the opportunity!
*not that i want to diminish what your feeling K. *hugs*
I accept your hug and raise you a half smile.
:D
What page are we on in the Teach book?
Ian, is is just me or is the events page very strange? The months do not go in order.
haha, no it's not you. the Events page isn't working yet.
i'm totally addicted to shopping. i just dropped $200 on a one hour lunch break. got so much stuff though!
I do enjoy shopping except when it comes to furniture cause money goes like water then.
OMG me too!!! its dangerous here cause we have a retail store in the warehouse & when i get stressed (which is basically daily) i go in and shop! LOL then i'll hit the mall at lunch and do some more shopping. LOL
Would I hear a ton of crap from Mike if I posted a journal with a couch Donovan and I are trying to sell? Would anyone be interested?
What is this Craig's list?
Well if it is, I am selling a g3 iBook and a 97 mazda protege, both need repair work.
Theres a new show on called It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Sooo hilarious. I saw it last week and it nearly killed me. I can't even explain what it's like, but it's not like anything else.
check the clips, minus Hell Chair. they are killer.
i hear about this show all the time
tonight, 10, FX. be there.
OMG i've been dying to see this! its on tonight?
tonight, 10, FX
when is this show on?
So this may totally make me a major dork. but I watch "so you think you can dance", well I have only seen it once so far. but i love it, mainly cuase I am a huge dance fanatic. i want to be on it so bad. haha. I cant stand most of the dancers personality's they are annoying and abnoxciuos. & I really cant stand the female judge she is annoying and abnoxviuos.
this is one of my guilty pleasures. Liam and watch it together, we have ministry school on wednesdays and always need it. (yes, i know we need tivo)
did you watch it last night? my favorite was the doll one, i loved the costumes & the whole idea.
no, above should have read, we always *miss* it, but i'll get the highlights tonight on the elmination show
ummm yeah... we're been watching this show too.
should i be embarrased or something
i dunno.
kinda cool to see how they all try to learn new dance styles and stuff
yeah it is cool. I dont think the the choreographers are doing a good job though. I think they can put together much better routines. There is just somehting about most of the choreography i dont think is right on. or Something. To me the choreography is always off & not intune with the music, & i dont think its the dancers becuase they are just doing what they are told, whether they are good or bad at it just the moves created for them are i duno, not great.
do you think it is the moves, or the execution of the moves.
They can dance exactly what they were shown, but they have to add some attitude with it to make it look good and fit the music
I think its the moves, just something about them is not great, not with the backgound the choreographers have, the should be better or I duno how to explain it, haha
i only like to see the dancing i hate all the jibber jabber from the host. it's refreshing to see these shows where people actually have to be talented to be on tv.
my wife watches this (actually we were jumping between this and "america's got talent). and we switch the channel everytime the woman judge says something. or should I say "screams something"
Yeah she is SO annoying.
David Hasselhoff is an incredibly annoying judge as well
David Hasselhoff is an annoying everything
I watch that one too.. america's got talent.. 'cause it actually just proves mostly, that america doesn't have talent
HAHAHAHA i tape it and watch it while i'm getting ready for work the following day. its pretty cool. i wanna take ballroom dancing lessons.
Yaeh me to,, That & swing, I REALLY LOVE SWING.
I've actually seen the last 2 episodes of it.. including last nights. I'm not even into dancing. Well, I think breaking is coo. But, like American Idol, it's kinda fun to watch people make a fool of themselves most times.
I thought this was interesting:
"Another new feature for all you kids out there to use. I've just added a Musings page to the site. It's basically just a little page where anybody can write anything up there, and everybody else can see it. I'm gonna use it to jot myself quick little notes, or maybe post links or something. You guys can all write your own Musings too... poetry, stories, links, anything, just please, please, keep it appropriate. If you want to post your own musing, you have to create a login first, so go ahead and do it.
I guess we ruined your thought of jotting your own notes on this page Ian...
ezabel needs more colors. this joint is so antiseptic.
Agreed. This is not the final design.
Although it does look business like... good for the looky-loos who pass my desk. :-)
just a thought, maybe you should let a designer design it, lol.
i would LOVE that
Sorry alex... I nominate Jeff.
check out this logo he made
Pretty coo. Reminds me of Etnies "E"
thanks, but i'm not too skilled at webdesign.
the only web work i've done was my own personal site, and that was hacked together using illustrator, photoshop, and dreamweaver, not the nice programming of this site.
Donovan's redesigning our site - maybe he could give you a few ideas. He's come up with like half a dozen designs that he's scrapped.
I actually got the current design (save the turtle) from Open Source Web Design. Sweet site.
Take a look through there guys. If you see a design that stands out and would work for eZabel, let me know.
the design i'm using right now is from Metro01
Honestly, I prefer the "antiseptic" design for the reason that was mentioned: It's text-oriented enough to seem like work. Except for the turtle.
if that's what ian wants, then cool. i'll get used to it. whatever works.
I like Metro1. The others were't as good.
yeah I was thinking the same thing, but you described it perfectly. ha ha
stay gold, ponyboy
So, check out the new Home page.
It now shows the latest News posts, as well as the latest Journals and Forum Threads.
Kinda neat. What do you think?
I like it.
You need someway to identify the news stories, everything else has a label
I don't care what anyone says I WANT THIS CAR! '85 Mazda RX-7. When I was a kid I used to freak out when I'd see one and I STILL do.
http://www.blackdragonauto.com/assets/customerPhotos/rx85gslGaryBtx.jpg
http://www.bigbell.ecnet.jp/shasin/mazda%20sabanna%20RX-7%2085-.jpg
I'm gonna start looking for one right away. I hear you can get 'em for a very decent price these days. whataya'll think?
OMG my friend had one when we were 18....FUNNEST car ever. i loved when she'd put it in turbo mode....felt like we were driving KIT. LOL
I KNOW! i must have one!
These have rotary engines that burn oil. (not a major problem, but you should be aware). ( I have heard up to a quart every other fill up)
It is also getting up in years... talk to a dealer ( or wrecker if your a DIY kinda guy ) about parts (availability and price).
I like cars.
Good advice.
dudes, my new fav drink is Tab Energy Drink. it's pretty yummy, 5 calories & it's a pretty sweet pink color! no else drinks this, but me!
LOL
HAHAHAHA OH SHUSH! i love it. it tastes good with some vodka & parrot bay rum (as i discovered this past weekend)
i knew this part was coming, in which case, i'll say: i'll have to try it
i am disapointed....
my new fav drink: Tab Energy Drink it's yummy, 5 calories & it's a pretty pink color!!!
yeah... thats swell and all... but im getting a HUGE chocolate milkshake today... YAY!
OH YUM! i had one the other day at Ruby's diner....OMG
Does anyone know if Patrick got a new number? I tried to call him, but theres a recording that says its not in service. Can anyone PM me his new number?
he said his phone is dead and his charger is in his car. which is getting fixed, possibly.
it doesnt sound like its dead. the recording says that the "subscriber you have dialed is not in service"
mmm. me no no.
how did you talk to him?
AIM
Ditto
aw man how did i miss him???
This is super annoying: A bunch of my forms are missing from my networked folder at work. This week has sucked.
call IT and tell them to recover the data, it should be backed up daily
They're coming later. It's just a pain - I don't want anyone in my folder at all. It's like someone rooting around in your drawers, you know?
some people are into that kinda thing ;)
Good morning, all!
morning :)
MORNING!!!!
Hey Gina, how's it going? You still entertaining your visitors, or have they left already?
its an insane morning and its only 9 :(
No :( i'm sad. they're leaving today and should be back on the east saturday night. they were def so much fun!!!! and im def going to miss them!
L8T for work... I should get out of bed
Ian, i miss the forums view.....
you talking about the one line view? where you had to mouseover or click on the comment to read the whole thing?
i dont know, but all the new posts were at the top.
ah ok. yeah, this view is supposed to "bump" new posts to the top as well, but it doesn't seem to be working quite right.
gotcha
also, why do my new posts show as new to me? This is confusing.
juggling/"bump"ing is working now.
remember when everybody was against the forums view and didn't want to leave the old fashioned musings view behind?
i know! and the new view was clearly superior.
i mean, come on, look at it: http://web.archive.org/web/20030723023730//forums/11
yeah, i was one of the last ones to succumb, but now i love it..... maybe eventually ill get used to this way too
Forreste, Malibu and I were at the Rx Bandit show the other night. Yahh..I had a stage diver land on my head or kick me in the head. He did something to my head and then hit the Boy too (or we think it could have been my head that hit the Boy). Good times. It made me happy that the crowd didn't hold him up but dropped him into the "pit" (which wasn't even a pit..but an empty circle with a few kids trying to skank or something).
gotta love Matt Embree for telling kids to just do an old fashioned skank circle. too bad they didn't know how to do that!
Im so hungry but i dont know what to eat...
Food forum...read new thread.....need help...STAT!!!!
Today is gonna be rough....our DC is this weekend, and I've got a MILLION things to do to get ready, none of which I feel I have the energy to do. I just finished shampooing my ENTIRE car (an SUV, mind you), and that pretty much wore me out for the day.
I am like, the busiest person I know. For reals.
My throat is scratchy! Margarita at lunch to fix this? I think so.
I'll join you, where do you work?
Hahaha..I don't work! (not at the moment, at least..just got back from a hiatus in Europe) I'm just "doing lunch" as if I did.
But I will be at the Chilis in Little Falls on Route 46.
How close is that to Parsippany??
Where in Parsippany do you work?
It'd probably be like 15+ minutes or actually maybe even more than that because of construction (I haven't been up that way in a while now). Its a little before where 46 branches off into Route 3.
I work on the corner of Rt 10 & Rt 202... there is a Wendy's across the street from me.
Hmmm... Rt. 3 would be a drive for me.. around 15 minutes is correct...
Wow..you work like 2 minutes from my house.
We could do lunch another day, there's that chilis (and tons of other restaurants) right down the road on 46 there. I am always up for a margarita.
dude you work like 5 minutes from me.
Yay we can have an ezabel lunch!
Awesome!! We should plan it sometime soon... let me know... I have been to that Chilli's on Rt. 46 it only takes me like 5 minutes to get there...
a shot of tequila will help...lol
*how was the trip BTW....are you going to download some pics?? i wanna see...
Haha I was thinking more of the frozen aspect but the tequila will help!
I've uploaded some pictures but I got lazy yesterday and stopped. I want to kind of make a journal or thread for it so its not just pictures but some of the stories that go along with them.
OHHHH stories are good with pics! i cant wait!!!!
I got a few crazy stories...especially centered around this one girl I travelled with who totally went psycho in Rome!
oh wow....was she hard to handle? i def wanna hear that one! lol
So I'm here @ work doing my work and my hands keep shaking, I don't even remember arriving here. It's a great feeling, let me tell you.
Matt, I love it when you reply to all the invites in Spanish, and than I have to see how the words are similar to Italian and than have to translate it into English.
so i think its official, cleaning the cat's litter box is the worst most disgusting job EVER!!!!!!!!!
my cat is very good this way. she poops like a model. we do it every day and so the mess is tiny and takes 20 seconds to clean. the key is frequency.
what about cleaning the actual box?
we just buy a new one when it's time for that. they're cheap.
your the second person that said that to me this week
listen to me, muffy. i'm wise.
ok well when i find a job maybe ill treat myself to a new litter box
sounds good to me.
yeah, it doesnt work. :(
If your at work item 519261.
lol it actually says "cat". Except i cant use the lid....
The lid is when your getting a new one... you just snap it on and leave the surprise for your garbage man. :D
your cat has an open air litter box? awesome for the cat. smelly for the humans. i don't know if my cat would like that tho. she's very modest.
my cat is too big for the lid.... but we keep it in the garage. So he's happy.
kitty diet time!
i'm just replying to see how skinny the boxes will get on the Zabe 3.o
skinnier, skinnier, it must get skinnier
haha stop that!!
hey the "bump" thing is working again
I feel like Mischa Barton
now i feel like nicole ritchie
opps, now i've done it, gone too far. i'm addicted, i can't stop.
how far below the e will it go?
callista flockhart
Mary-Kate
Kiera
Knightley
Ian.... this brings back memories of me and nine9star... oh those were the days where all you would see is us babble as you continue to scroll through the skinny boxes on the right.... (And when I was 4th place on the rankings in points)
You should bring back ranking points
I agree Ian... you should bring back the points system... it was always enjoyable to view and monitor... I mean, its like a goal... and what's life without goals??!
While points was before me. I concur that it sounds very enjoyable! I need more goals!
Kate
Moss
you are sooo 1999,
Lindsay Lohan
i like gfs's thought about points and goals. in the km this week we study the point about goals. - it's theocratic, bring back the points system
Ian, I would have never thought someone actually would like to bring the point system back, with MY NAME as one of the reasons to do it... Man if Rock Superstar, Magnum or I like birds were here to read it, they would just die laughing...
no, hes not that big, he only weighs about 15 lbs. But hes an outside cat so its all muscles. We did try to put him on a diet by not leaving his food out all day but it did NOT go over well.
psh! what did he do? shake you down at knife point for taco bell money?
yes actually he did
i really like this idea! Thanks!!
I am SO not motivated to cook dinner right now.
hiiiiiiiiii guess who is posting right now from Socalgal's office!!! DUUUUDE this is sweet i'm never coming back
oh yeah it's me, posting from her office
woot
MESS UP HER DESK!
like the way you messed it up? tsk tsk
no that was todd, he peed on it.
EWWWWWWWWWWWW. no it was you....you were just digging into everything.
mmmmmmm...i just made theee best smoothie.
Share...some how =P
Wait OMG!?!? Is Monster who I met Sat, how do you spell it Monsoir??? HI!
haha! Mansoor is me, but monster will do! Hi Livy! :D
Duuuuh. I was just gonna ask if the "new" tags were just not working for me when I realized it was because I wasn't logged in.
the last 30 minutes of work go soooo slow!!
I'm covering for three people who are on vacation this week. I hate this place right now.
is everything going wrong? I feel for you!
Pretty much, yea. What pisses me off the most is that the office manager knew all 3 people would be out and she knew I'd have to cover for them, but she didn't ask any to take vacation on a different week. And I know one of them is just staying home with her kids, so that could so easily have been changed.
thats what you get for not coming to my party....
Dude, I'm still pissed that you told Katie I was coming even though I specifically said I wasn't. That's lame.
what? i didnt say that! i said that i was trying to convince you to come. and then i said to her i didnt know if you were gonna come or not.
How does my saying, 'We're not coming' translate into you not being sure? Is that ambiguous in some way?
Fight, fight, fight....LOL!
i thought i convinced you otherwise... mainly because your reason for not coming was pretty lame and childish...
You're trying to make me mad, aren't you?
The hate is swelling in you now....Take your jedi weapon....I am unarmed...Give in to your anger....With each passing moment you make yourself more my servant!
I love that line....
so i dont know if you all have heard but our very own beloved HunkpapaP has been in a pretty bad car accident up in MA.. hes at home but pretty banged up and sore
he needs our love- give him love
Pics from SpecialK party... i look sooo gross in all... just as a warning.
I'll try to be beneficent. If you find a pic of yourself that you find unbearable EZ me and I'll remove.
UGGHH back to work is the worst.

Good times!!!! Thanks for an awesome time guys!!! :)
I love the fact that there are more pics of the boys playing with the lightsabers, than there are of Tyler. Hahahah.
lol and whats wrong with that?!
Hahah, nothing...it's just hilarious that all you guys are like, 15-20 years older than him....I knew he'd find kids his own age to play with at the party, hahaha. :)
it's driving me nuts that everytime i X out of ezabel, it doesn't keep me logged in.
i'll get autologin working soon
