I myself will stick around a bit and hope for the best. caught the chicago plaid show. I didn't care much for mira calix but plaid was awesome. plus I only paid 5 bucks for my scalped ticket and then got a 3 dollar rebate when i walked in. the price was right. I saw gavin at the show and we talked for a bit afterwords. He said he was probably going to post more of his adventures up on the list. I am excited about that. merrick __________________________________________________________________ Good web architects make sites that are useful, usable, informative, entertaining, accessible, and aesthetically pleasing.

I think the rants are a bit silly- but I have the ability to quickly scroll by them. Just got back from NYC- very busy place but fun nonetheless. Hooked up with my first Orb lister Andy- thanks for the Brooklyn tour and such : ) I arrived to find all my bobs and my one tog safe and sound. The bobs are all wicked and the tog made me especially happy- it fits like a woman's t-shirt. Question- did any guys order a small and if so were they proportioned more appropriately? Sadly I missed out on ordering bob4 because badorb runs on UK time and my plane was VERY late. I'll find it out there somewhere I'm sure eventually.

I’ve been paying scant attention to the "annoying" thread, but – while anyone who has good personal reasons to leave this list should by all means do so – I do feel that dissolving the list on account of a few folks who need to prove their manliness with four letter words sets a bad precedent. The antidote?: start an interesting thread! _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2001 12:05:00 -0600 From: "bi11i" Subject: (orb) test test # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ End of orb-digest V2 #505 *************************
