So sorry!  I was trying to be so careful, and I forgot about the extra zero.

'S no problem.  Both topics were fixed.

Oh, and my word at the top was not meant to be a caption.  I discovered I had to put something up there or it wouldn't load, so I just put what I always think of when I see that, (more of a name than a caption, if you will).

I think you ought to check out the 2nd part of MB's quote.   

Please follow these simple rules for adding new screen captures to this board:

• Create a new topic and use as its subject the number of the DS episode from which your capture has come (i.e. "Episode #0217" or "Episode #0007" - and please DON'T FORGET TO ADD THE PRECEDING ZEROS because we'd like to make it possible for people to sort the topics by episode number (rather than the date the captures were last captioned) in case they'd like to read this board chronologically within the DS storylines). In the cases where an episode has multiple numbers, simply post the subject as follows: "Episode #0801/0802".
• The text of the screen capture post need only consist of one character, such as an asterisk (*), though if you'd like, certainly feel free to provide an explanation of what prompted you to post that particular capture. However, DON'T INCLUDE ANY CAPTIONS in this topic creation post. Captions should ONLY appear as the FIRST AND ANY SUBSEQUENT REPLIES.

 

Well, couldn't find the original thread on this (how do you do that btw?)

If you know the board, open it (in this case Calendar Events / Announcements '06), enter running with scissors into the search window at the top, click Search.  Advanced search allows you to include other specific boards in your search.

Otherwise, select Search in the horizontal menu, then Advanced Search, enter running with scissors into the window, change the max. message age to 30 days (since we've been discussing it for about a month), click Search.

Hope that helped.  

LA Times Review:
'Unknown'
Five men without a memory aren't much help in solving crime.

For other interested Angelenos, it's playing now at the Westside Pavilion Cinemas on Pico Blvd.; also the Rialto Theatre in S. Pasadena.  See the official IFC site to find additional cities and dates (it lists the Lumiere in SF starting next weekend, David).  

Please give my best to LAFB

      

The cast listing for 1776 (the movie) erroneously links Daniel Keyes to the author with the same name who wrote "Flowers for Algernon," which demonstrates the spotty fact-checking that occurs on sites such as this.

20 blackest moments in goth

Oh well, other than that, I am glad just to be reading something that is both a continuation of the show, and not a fanfiction (although I have seen the arguments that it IS a fanfiction, however, if this is the case, then the entire works of Anne Rice should be classified as fanfiction.)

One poster, I believe, called it fanfiction, and I suppose it is in the sense that LP did not have any hand in creating the series or its characters.  However, it is a professional novel, and this is why I'm so critical of it, just as I would point a finger at Anne Rice (whose characters are completely original, btw, so I don't get your analogy) if she were guilty of making the same writing mistakes.  Fans are standing in long lines to purchase this book, and for the money I feel she should have done better.  And I have read better [free] fanfic on the net.

I did offer that The Salem Branch qualifies as a Mary Sue, though I never explained that comment.  LP introduced an original character (Antoinette)-- a stand-in for herself who is overly perfect-- while the flaws of other fictional characters, who are not her creations, are emphasized.  The author even admits in Q&As to providing Antoinette with some of her own personal experiences.

I did notice something though. Everywhere and everything causes leaves to move, in every possible way. Cars cause leaves to fly, digging makes leaves fall in holes, and leaves turn colors of gemstones. Is it overkill, I don't think so (so far). I am still hoping I will see the symbolism once I have finished the book.

Ha!  Yes, the autumn leaves.  We discussed that in the preceding pages of this topic.  It does get quite annoying, at least that's my be-leaf.
