A comedic tour de force! It gives one pause to wonder about all of the aromas (fragrant or flatulent) that "wafted" through the great halls of Collinwood. If I may paraphrase Billy Crystal's SNL character Don Fernando, "Dahling, you smell mah-ve-lous!!!"

My favorite is something called Pink Pearl that I bought in the Bahamas

Wish I could be that funny too. I did that storyboard a long time ago.
If you see something posted by me at around 6 in the morning, it's not because I'm up, bright and chipper (greeting the new day with a song in my heart). LOL It's 'cause I haven't gone to bed yet.

You sound just like me Jen!! LOL!!
My family calls me the "Vampire"[batang] because of the late hours I keep! Im hitting the sack when everyone else is getting up to go to work here! [sleep] Getting up early during my school years was pure torture for me! I guess it's just in my blood. Luckily for me, all the jobs I've had started in the afternoon! :-)

I believe I made this very same suggestion the LAST time Connie had us all spitting coffee all over our keyboards....if I remember correctly she demured on the grounds that she only comes up with this stuff when something she reads on the forum stirs her imagination...not something she can do on command.

However erratic the posts, I still think they should all be grouped together somewhere, so we know where to find them.....unless, of course, that presents a bandwidth problem!!! [mady]

Quentin says:

"Bandwidth? Yeah...I got your BANDWIDTH right HERE!"

No, seriously Raineypark...if you or anyone else wants any of these storyboards or any other nonsense I post, I suggest you grab it. After the message thread has pretty much disappeared for awhile, I remove the image from my webspace and the picture is no longer on the Forum.

The pictures take up too much space and I'm going to need it for a little Quentin website I want to build at some point. (If I can ever figure out how to build the pages myself without using AOL's online editor and being stuck with the annoying AOL Hometown banners above each page). [smash]

P.S. Just in case you don't look at the thread, I posted a little NODS behind the scenes photo under the TCM Movies topic.

Post by: Raineypark on September 26, 2002, 03:58:17 PM: Well, THANK YOU very much, Connie....this morning it was decaf tea!!!

"Grab it".....you mean like Quentin here?

I'm afraid I can't save things like your "lost episodes". Haven't a clue....haven't the technical expertise.

I'll just have to enjoy them in the moment....and then wait for the next one! [lghy]

Just put your cursor over the picture, hit your right-click button, and you'll get a list. Click "save picture as..."
You'll get a 'save as' box. Type in a name for the picture and save it wherever you want on your drive.

Got it??? ?!?

Well, you know, Connie - if it's not a case that you'd like to keep these hilarious creations of yours as a limited time thing (which I'd more than understand), it would be no trouble whatsoever for me to set you up with your own Web space on the forum's server, and you could upload all these files there. Bandwidth wouldn't really be an issue because you get inspired at irregular intervals. And not that I'm trying to sway your decision or anything ([wink2]), but I personally think future visitors/"cousins" who'll come to the forum would get as much of a kick out your humor as those of us do now...

Please do think about it (and uploading images here wouldn't be all that different from uploading them to your AOL space because you could use the same AOL software to do it)
Title: Re: The Stink of Lilacs
Post by: Gothick on September 27, 2002, 06:03:12 PM: Connie,

I wish you'd do a capture some time of the moment when Quentin is leaning back against a wall (I think it is the episode when Trask has locked him in the basement cell in the OH) and he puts his hands in his pockets with his legs clasped together and moves his hands upwards.

The sight you get at that moment of Quentin's manhood really is wonderfully inspiring, and something I often contemplate when I'm in need of a little boost. Far too little beauty in this world as it is ...

good luck with your site, should you choose to pursue it.

MB --

No, I have no desire to keep anything I post as a limited time thing. ("And if you ACT NOW, you get one of those hairbrushes that keep rolling around and around!") LOL
I just feel a little uncomfortable uploading anything to "my own webspace" on here. I have no judgement as to what people would like or find funny, and what they wouldn't. Example: I've posted stuff in the past that I thought was funny at the time, but got little or no reaction. Then I post this "Lilacs" thing (which I was never particularly enthralled with), and a lot of people think it's hysterical. [hdscrt] Plus, I might post a picture with a caption or something, that might be rather amusing in a particular message thread, but would mean nothing if it were posted on its own somewhere -- you know?

Anyway, I don't want to be a pain, but would it be possible for either you and/or Midnite to decide what should get uploaded to a separate section or archive?
You know what I mean? Like, if I were to post something and you think it should be kept, you could just grab it and put it in that section? I'd feel alot more comfortable not having to make that decision -- whether something is funny or not, or maybe even inappropriate.

That's really nice and it makes me happy. I like making people laugh. But...so, could you and Midnite just take whatever you want and put it in a section??

love
