Ah but in the bonfire mediocrity rules, these are skydivers we're dealing with, not mensa candidates. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

I wish I could tell you that I have a list of awesome and amusing stories to tell, but the business has changed so unlike a lot of the old timers I dont have any scars from deranged woman stabbing me. I do have a couple of 'fans' that stand out though. 1. is this strange guy, really odd and obese, thick glasses, walks with a cane. He spent one show trying to hit me with it whenever I got near. The end of the match shenanigans meant I had to make a hasty exit out through the main entrance, which meant heading down the aisle. This guy stood up, tried to block me and took a nasty shoulder check from me on the way. A couple of days later I got a few emails from a female wrestler who was being harassed by this clown to get wrestling lessons from her so he could get his revenge as I had dislocated his shoulder. A few months later he tried to apologize to me, but since I wasnt me at the time I just blanked him (yes, I do look like that Alex Crowley guy, I hear that quite a bit.). 2. Psychoguy. He's about 65. For 4 months he would stand behind me at shows and for the entire time I was out there would quietly and calmly say "I'm going to kill you, I'm going to find out where you live and the police will never know, I will kill you". Which is pretty standard stuff. Well, a couple of months later we did a gimmick match where my champion would fight a match while I was surrounded by security on a balcony over the ring. Psychoguy made an official request to the president of the company that rather than being surrounded by security I could be hung by the neck and the fans could poke at me with sticks. Most recently he asked permission to beat me up at a show, when his request was denied he asked about whether he'd be banned from the next show if he stabbed me on the street on my own time. 3. I tend to walk around very oblivious to the rest of the world. I constantly hear stories about what an arrogant prick I am because I ignored someone in a public place. I'm actually pretty old school, so I like that aspect - I dont want people congratulating me on being a good character. I like that I have that certain something that makes people hate me without even knowing who I am. I did a show last week where we had zero security, we're in a new town and sold the place out (150 people, not a bad house). There were 5 overly large teens (think the kid in Bad Santa x 5 thinkingthat they're cool, wearing fake wrestling championship belts). That's always a fun time, try to avoid the psycho wannabe wrestling teens without breaking them while still doing your job :) TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Remster, I dont consider myself a wannabe. I piss people off as a paid hobby so unless someone wants to throw me $50 I try to keep my baiting to a minimum. I've also only really been reading here the last 6 months, so please forgive my lack of knowledge of Alien Angel. This was more an experiment, nice to see that it's met my expectations.

You know, I'm horrified I forgot Walt. Maybe I just dont see him as a trouble maker and more of a father figure, a mentor, a guide, as I move through life trying to disassemble what it is that really irks people. thank you Walt. Please forgive my respect for your irking ability clouding my judgement in adding you to the poll. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

I'm the same. Then again I spend an average of 18 hours a day on mine. It took a long time to let my wife use my desktop machine, but I figure having a laptop and a desktop to myself was a little too greedy (although we were a three computer family for a while). The 'puters an extension of mind and self, I dont want anyone messing around with that. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Laptops make quite effective bludgeoning implements. Try it on the next person to ask, close the lid and try to use the edge or corner. Especially effective to the face, which is soft and squishy and sensitive to high impacts from 12lbs of plastic and electronics. Bonus if you let the lappy get really hot first.

When you reinstall Windows you can reinstall IE if you want to make it a clean install. or here for the less destructive method. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

no Jimmy, but it seems that you may be an OSS fanboy with little understanding of the development process or software architecture. It's ok I went through my linux fanboy zealotry (around the release of kernel 1.3 I think). You're thinking in the wrong headspace. #!/bin/bash echo "This is secure coidng!" By your statement I just wrote a secure piece of software. It's open for everyone to see and someone can point out that I'll need to edit the spelling of a word. Go through freshmeat or sourceforge sometime and take a wade through the vast wasteland of absolute crap that is OSS on the whole. Writing code and letting others read it is NOT any more secure than the girls in the 'show your boobies' thread being less likely to be assaulted because now we've all seen pictures of their breasts. Security is: process, design, solid implementation, proper testing - open or obscured. End of story. Mutable product or no, you can't bolt security on after the fact, no matter how many pairs of eyes are on your code. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Would you mention that you are a skydiver?
AlexCrowley replied to Superman32's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I agree on the large small thing. Larger companies have to adhere to policies and are usually mature enough to have developed some sort of rigidity and ..........boringness. Hell, I spent 9 months working at head office for a hotel chain as the only technical guy in an analyst team and their feathers were ruffled by the fact that I'd get to work at 6 and leave at 4.30 (3 hours before they arrived, 30 minutes earlier than all of them left - in lockstep). They got excited the day a new coffee machine arrived (which was 24 hours before I resigned because they got excited that a new coffee machine arrived).

I really hope you're not a developer of any product I'll ever need to use. Visibility != security. Open source by its very nature is OPEN! Security is something entirely different and is rarely seen in the real world, either commercially or within open source software development. excuse me while I go shudder.

LOL Urm. Ok. I go to lots of newsites and watch the news and have never had to install a damn thing. Maybe you installed all those weird plugins at a different time in IE? As far as not having a plugin, FF and IE both tell you which one you need and both provide comparable support as far as finding the correct plugin and automating the download (or not). Throw out a link and I'll check it out for you, but the main news sites and local tv sites have no issues at all here. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Dreamweavers gotten better at supporting the other standards. There was a point in recent history where every friggin page was b0rked unless you used IE. People are smartening up. In general it's only the annoying morons with vanity pages that provide incompatible webpages nowadays. Change your useragent and most 'incompatible' sites render without a hiccup.

Heh. barely over 100 posts and nearly 4500 views. I think that's the best view/post ratio on the site. Bring on the cleavage. [This post bought to you by me scaring myself by only posting on computer related threads this afternoon] TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Are you trying to install one of those weird porn viewer thingys? Most of the larger vendors include the Firefox install option nowadays. I'm gonna take a wild stab at "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins" as being the place to put plugins. Hey look! under all this prettiness there's a filesystem!!
