I still have no opinion. But Google's third link has me wondering a bit about you jinx. o_O

Oh yeah, and NLB2 isn't gonna be happy that you've appropriated his joy over this discovery for yourself, and used it to shamelessly increase your MAF-quotient and propel yourself to stardom. :p Your q-rating with forumers goes up while his dwindles-- and all because you couldn't resist the allure of your name in lights, next to the thread title. Was it the money? The babes? The geek-acceptance factor? Why'd you do it, -jinx-, WHY!? Everyone should copyright their posts from now on...it's not safe here anymore. :D


(Yes, I'm bored :p )

Actually, all kidding aside, I felt like making my once-a-year parody post.

To answer the questions:

1) I had no idea what "pelagic argosy" meant. I looked up the words separately in the ol' dictionary, but now Calder has me worried.

2) No, I'm not drunk...but that might help with the pain. I spent all day moving...

3) ...which leads to the answer to question #3. The GF moved out into her own place today, which is probably a good thing. It's been an interesting experiment so far, but more space is a good thing. Now I can

4) I missed UCLA's season opener, but given how a 14-7 lead turned into a 31-20 loss, it might have been a good thing that I was slugging around boxes.

The "view selection source" is also nifty... maybe I should actually look at the screen now and then.

On the contrary. I'm overjoyed to see love of pelagic argosy spreading. If it were me who made this thread I'd just look like even more of an asshole annoying people with seemingly worthless threads, but since -jinx- did it, I can praise the greatness of pelagic argosy without fear of retribution (Mike Works scares me :-( ).

NLB2, 2004.

And also, argosy has a third definition.
According to dictionary.com:
A rich source or supply: an argosy of adventure lore.

It was awful. I think we may be in for a long season if the defense doesn't shape up. On the bright side, the offense looked improved.

I'm personally fond of the extension that adds "Dictionary Search..." to that menu.
