Jack: No, they aren’t. I’d be playing “Stupid MF” if they were. Hmmmm…
CP: Stupid MF — Mindless Self Indulgence
My new computer ate my MP3 of Saves the Day — At Your Funeral and I want to hear it RIGHT.NOW.
Ugh. Where is it!?
Found it. Ahhhh… better.
Slow work day today. Hopefully it won’t turn into a “no-work” day.
Is the mp3-eating computer this generation’s version of the kite-eating tree?
Having lost a few kites to trees in my childhood, I believe that people would be more eco-friendly if not for the kite industry.

I remember being berated by an elderly teacher on how disgraceful that advert was.
I am having fun with Bitstrips. I need to work on my books.
You’d better learn to pull yourself up by your own bitstrips young man.
Are watches still a big deal in other countries? Why is a huge percentage of my spam trying to peddle black market wristwatches??
I have a fondness for my wristwatch that syncs to an atomic clock via radio and recharges it’s battery via solar cell.
Well, you know.. some life forms still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.
That was much too easy.
Yes I’m afraid I fall into that DA category.
Maybe I should get a link to one of those sites. I desperately need a new watch for those times when I forget to bring my iTouch, cell phone, car stereo, or self-erecting sundial with me when I go somewhere.
‘self-erecting sundial’ – there is a bawdy comment just waiting to happen there..but I’ll resist.
All the ladies love high noon.
And now for something completely different:

Just back from a Rumba lesson.
Dance anyone … ?
It would appear that Van’s watch no longer needs him.
Thanks Smarty Hotties (if you’re lurking) :)
ok thats just fucking creepy
I just came on here to spill the beans of your birthday (officially less than 30 minutes from now)
Are you thanking us for the wonderful ecard we just sent you?
Your welcome for whatever we did!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACK!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thx again, Dre & Hugh. :)
And thank you, Dan & Cj!! :)
Happy Birthday to the very awesome, talented, adorable, sweet, smart, funny, creative, thoughtful, and (did I mention adorable?) totally amazing, Jack Mangan!
Woo hoo!
*hugs*
*swooon*
Yay!
Morning Pan,
Happy Birthday Jack.
So after watching the first episode of the new season of 24 I was getting a Die Hard 2 flashback…
Watch your coffee intake if you are feeling stressed:

“Researchers find that open office plans lower productivity and raise stress and employee turnover. Huh, who knew people didn’t like everyone constantly staring over their shoulder and listening to their every word?”
Who knew, indeed.
I guess it must just be early enough in the morning. This one got me all giggly and I was scrolling through failblog:
http://failblog.org/2009/01/11/netflix-suggestion-fail/
morning pan.
I had a cood in my node today.
Ah well. Breathing’s over rated anyway.
Happy birthday, Jack! :-)
Oh, Happy Birthday, Jack.
CW: 24 S7E2
Happy Birthday Jackman!
Happy Birthday, Jack!

Finally!
Sorry, Rhett, that article means nothing to me. Canadian = hockey :)
What’s hockey? LOL
Jack is now older then he’s ever been !
… and now he’s even older.
… and now he’s even older.
So was the birthday today, or yesterday? I haven’t been on Pan for a few days so I’m a little out of the loop
Happy Birthday Jack!!!!
Rhettro: I know what you mean. There is some optimism here!
I figured ditto. Now maybe they’ll land Shanahan as coach. :)
TEB, today. the 14th=Jack’s birthday.
Van, RE: the article you shared on coffee. Some people are 95% water… yeah, I’m 95% coffee. If I hallucinate or stress, so bit it. I won’t be giving up my coffee. EVER.
Just sayin’
HI TEB.
My undertanding is that it is today … of course with Jack, it’s always a party.
Thanks everyone :)
Today, I’m suddenly finding Matlock and Murder, She Wrote more appealing.
Hey, what are those kids doing on my lawn??
Jack: Are you getting to be a grumpy old man like Rhettro & me?
It will be the slippers and cocoa next.
Heh??
Bunny, I hope you feel better.
I don’t know what I’m doing with tonight’s episode/unshow, but I got an awesome bit of timely audio – so we’ll see what happens later.
Show some respect to your elders ditto!
Eh? What’s that sonny?
Van: you first. :P
lol
Oh yeah…
GET OFF MY LAWN!
I’m an elder, but I hide it well.
Jack’s just a young pup. Oh wait… Jack’s older than my husband!
What have I done?
muah hah hah hah
Cj = cougar
CP: Strange Deja Vu — Dream Theater
CD: Coffee
Sorting through thousands of emails is not much fun. Still, it beats what I’m avoiding. ;)
just kidding, Cj! That was meant to have a “?” after it!
Good call on the Dream Theater ditto.
Rhettro: It’s taken a while for me to get into them, but I do enjoy what I’ve heard so far. Right now I only have the one album: Scenes From a Memory. I’ve heard it’s not their best.
I saw John Petrucci do a solo set live in NYC, about 2 years ago. I’m ok with Dream Theater, but Petrucci – - damn.
I bought there break through album way back in the early 90′s and really liked it. But I got a little burnt out on them and moved on. Then someone from work lent me “Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence ” and I really liked it. They moved away from some of their more annoying tendencies. The live DVD concert is really good as well.
So, does CJ administer the spanking on behalf of Deadpan? Do we claim which one we want in our honor?
**drive by Posting**
Hello everyone!!!
Happy Birthday Jack!!!!!
Just a quick drive by post from me. Other then work and Scouts not much going on. Went to Denver last night and went to Scott Siglers Book Tour, then out to the bar with the FDO. It was a great time. Scott was such a nice guy, taking time to talk with everyone. And sign everything!!! Even tough the guy at the book store was a jerk, we still had a nice time.
I hope to get around more, as my work hours are gonna be cut down to 4 days after this week.
Hope everyone else is well.
WOOT !!!!! LCMoD sighting !!!
I thought Sigler was in Denver last week – darn! I could have gone last night too . . .
When I get my pics up i will post some. It was a good turnout.
CP: Birthday – The Beatles
LCMoD: Hiya! Hiya! Hiya!
Thanks, LCMoD. :) Good to see you round here again.
ZP pulls out his flashlight and examines Tomb Raider Underworld:

One the same site, think MST3K for video games cut scenes:

Van: I watched those MST3K-like commentaries for cut scenes and wasn’t impressed.
Yikes. . . Patrick McGoohan AND Ricardo Montalban both died today.
/bad taste mode on
At least he can now spin in his grave when The Prisoner remake is released.

PM obit at:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/5083460.stm
I can’t stop hearing “KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHN!” in my brain.
:(
“I am not a number – I am a free man!”
My Social Security number begs to differ.
That was actually the first thing I thought of CJ.
Was it Dre who told me this? I think so. . . She said that her mom used to watch some Spanish-language tv show, which would regularly feature a “Who’s More Manly?” segment. The contestants would always be Ricardo Montalban and someone or something else, and Ricardo Montalban would always win. (I’m sure I’m telling this story incorrectly).
RIP to him and McGoohan (who was also pretty manly).
Quien es mas macho? Jack Mangan? O Ricarrrrrdo Mantalbannnn?
That was a Bill Murray SNL skit, I think.
Rumor had it that Montalban was holding McGoohan captive on some island.
… or maybe I’m getting my metaphors mixed?
Justa JOe? O Ricardo Mantalban?
CP: Conference call hell.
I am not a midget, I am a tall man!
*channeling 1970′s Mantalban* “Luuuuk what they’ve dun to my podcaaast” */channeling 1070′s Mantalban*
Now in fine Coriiiinthian Leather.
It says in the story I read on his life … that the ad agency made up that term just because of the way it sounded when it rolled off his silver tongue!
Corinthian Leather … because it sounds good!
I didn’t know McGoohan from The Prisoner. But as soon as the obit mentioned his role in Braveheart – I could picture him immediately. Sounds like enjoyed a pretty good life.
As for Khan…I mean Ricardo Mantalban – well, he’ll always represent the high point of Star Trek (at least so far). Though, I’ve also recognized his distinct voice in both Dora the Explorer and Kim Possible.
Both talents are most certainly missed.
Hi there, LCMoD!
No writing today, just keeping records, paying bills, and chilling out. Productivity tomorrow night, I hope.
The most interesting part of today was sending a test tweet from my cell phone. Follow @MLKDay on Twitter to see tweets from me (on Saturday) and about 50 other people (on Monday), all using Twitter to tell the stories of the various community service projects they’re doing.
Grumbles. Late again.
So, Happy (belated) Born Day to you, Mr. Mangan. Hope it went well for you.

Jack had a donut birthday cake.
Why eat cake when you can have donuts?

Thanks Cj. That donut cake srsly rocked. You are excellent.
Nomad, thanks! It went well – and there were Boston Creme donuts (my favorite) – supplied by Cj – - and Dan.
