In "Fifty Word Fiction."

Here's one based on a true story: Like a bottle cap stubbornly resting at the bottom of a toilet, Catherine was a girl David couldn't reach, nor could he flush from his mind.

Kent felt that his chest was a microwave, and his heart was a baking potato - poked and stabbed and spinning under heat and pressure, with eyes only for Sarah.

#23, "General Generic Beer " from Miller. Do they mean any beer from Miller in general? if so, I guess that answers my question: why isn't MGD on the list?

In "Curious George: Apple 101"

I only have OS 9, but here's some tricks I use a lot. If you command-click (command = the apple key) the title of a window, it will pop up a contextual menu that shows you the location of the file (or folder) and allows you to open any of the folders in that path. If you hold down the option key when you double click to open a folder, the folder will open in a new window as usual, but the parent window will close itself. I've got a great extension called Default Folder that enhances the Open and Save dialogs. It's a real time saver... it gives you quick access to favorite folders, recently open folders, and any open folders in the Finder.

In "Sail to the Beanless Isles!"

Ok, I don't know how I screwed up the links. Samples Offramp home page What can I say, I'm Retardo Montalban!

In "Instant Viking? Monarch? Satyr?"

I donno, I think mantit automatically makes a link NSFW.

In "Curious George: Do you play video/computer games?"

I too just picked up DDR: Ultramix, and retarded hopscotch would be exactly how I describe my playing "style". I like to think of it as a specialized form of dancing, kinda like drunken boxing is to matial arts. Grand Theft auto is another favorite, but I've never been able to actually complete any missions. I usually get too distracted by going on rampages. I haven't played in a while, but my favorite pasttimes were standing in the back of a moving truck unloading bullets, or using the low grav code and flying the tank. Good times, good times. Currently I've been playing a lot of Battlefield. I tried Call of Duty, but ended up just going back to BF. I got BF:Vietnam and have been playing the heck out of it. Anyone who has 1942: I highly recommend playing online in the Moon-grav Omaha beach board. It's named something like Wagogees' Flying Omaha.
