Out of curiosity, why do you think that Wikipedia is a stupid website? I know there have been studies that found Wikipedia as more accurate as Brittanica (though the most recent one I can find is from 2006). But, I don't use it in that way. If I was going to write an academic dissertation I wouldn't...

I read the abridged version of Les Mis back in High School. It's one that I've always wanted to revisit and this time read the full version. Great story.

Noodle

Hexadectaly... hmmmmm... where would one have seen that word?

Noodle

Speaking of a Dirty Dancing remake, they are also making a Blade Runner Sequel. This. makes. me. sad.

Noodle

REMINDER: It's Monday!

Carry on.

For the male perspective to this discussion: My wife took my last name, and it wasn't really ever a discussion we had. I would have been fine if she kept her name. Especially since one of my cousins had her same first name so there was about 6 years where there were two Angela J___'s out there. I kn...

Zero, we've been over this time and time again. You are to refer to me as "My Liege" and nothing else. Honor your master! ;) *kidding of course* As I've said before, I'm really glad to see those of you who I remember from days of yore. Zero being the biggest exception. ;) I wasn't on much ...

Bob, Long time. How have you been? Bittersweet weekend this. Celebrating my brother-in-law's birthday with a fishing trip. I'be been on this trip before and it's always a blast. The problem lies in the fact that this is the first trip we've been on here since Gary died. Memories are thick. I never w...

I'm mildly annoyed at myself. I remember this being one of my favorite threads when I used to did come here. Now that it's three and a half quadrillion pages long, I'm not sure I can muster the time and energy to read through the whole thing. At least with Bob, and Dear You I don't feel like I need ...

If and when you read PKD you need to come prepared to have your mind messed with. Probably start with Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. Especially if you've seen "Blade Runner" It's similar, but at the same time different. PKD has lots of stories that have been made into movies, but of ...

Noodle

Mr. that is a very fine question. I don't know how we've lived this close and never gotten together. I'm game for a midwest get together. I need to make it out towards Madison more often anyways. There's lots of neat things there that I don't get to do enough, and cool people there that I really don...

Noodle

Just read yet another collection of short stories from Phillip K. Dick. This was the "Minority Report" collection. I've loved PKD for a long time and I'm slowly working my way through his entire catalog. Highly suggested for all of you. Also read through "The Girl with the Dragon Tatt...

Oh and I'll probably play Deus Ex at some point. I remember liking the first game a lot, but it's been so long that I don't really remember the plotline or what was so great about that game.

Not to mention Bioshock. Love that franchise.

Noodle

I've been playing Starcraft 2 for my RTS fix. Team Fortress 2 for my FPS fix, Portal 2 for my puzzle solving fix, and Field Runners HD for my smartphone gaming fix. I was/am in a clan that played a lot of Call of Duty, but with that series going downhill so much I didn't even purchase Black Ops. It'...

I guess it's official that any "welcome back to the forum Noodle" coddling I was going to get has run its course.

And yes, I did appreciate that (not so) bad joke. I'm all about bad jokes.

Noodle

No, not too snippy. and even if it was a little snippy, my original post could be interpreted as snippier than I intended.

I'm a big pasta, I can handle it.

Noodle

I remembered seeing that you moved to England. So. cool. I'm jealous. Though I really like Canuckistan, England wins. Congrats on all the learning. Impressive subjects you're studying there... I wouldn't know the first thing about any of that. But that just goes along with everything I remember abou...

Noodle

For some reason I have this strange connection with the first challenge in this thread. Making Noodles... Noodles.... Noodles...

*ahem* sorry, drifted off there for a second. I will try this just as soon as I can. Never made real pasta, but it's been on my list to try.

Noodle

Yay Young Val! I'm happy to see all these familiar faces. Glad to know that this community is still here and that the people I knew so many years ago are still a big part of it. It really feels like a homecoming of sorts because it's still the same folks who were here when I left. As to what I've be...

Noodle

GD - Thanks! It's good to be back. And you ladies and your clumsy pencil dropping... I thought sure you'd have that fixed by now. What with nobody to retrieve them for you, and the advancement of the "paperless office" :lol: But since it *is* my duty to never leave a pencil on the ground l...

Noodle

Sorry, I was tired and working it out in my own head. Just kind of thinking out loud (in type?) I didn't mean that to be a criticism of the dates you have. You certainly have better dates than I do, so there's that. I also didn't mean to imply that you didn't know that the Nov 2001 dates were post c...

Noodle

So far I'm doing alright at remembering to come back here. My PWeb prime was from 2000-2005ish and I haven't really been active in any form on this most recent iteration. I can't tell you how much it means to be remembered. Glad to see sandwich boy is still representing the CA here periodically. Hey...

Noodle

Also for the record, I *know* beyond a shadow of a doubt that I was on PWEB in 2000. I remember Ela was there when I joined. The November 4th/5th 2001 dates were when we registered for Ye Olde PWeb (probably version 2) following a crash. You'll notice that you won't find any registration dates liste...

I read through this entire thread. Wow. I had no idea all the stuff that's been happening around these parts since I left. I see that the server move isn't really going to happen, but if it's helpful I'm a server admin and have lots of experience with the techie stuff, and I'd love to help in whatev...

Noodle

Gotta say that I love these videos. Carry on.

Noodle

You guys were the first online community I was a member of, and even though I'm active on other networks now, I still feel like PWeb is home. I'm really glad to see that many of the people I used to see here are still around and active. I'll do my best to come back and be active, but if I'm not more...

Noodle

Heya folks! I came back two days in a row! My memory must be serving me well.

How are things around these parts? I've been well.

Noodle

Oh and since I've been away I'm offering Lime-Aides to all of you who remember what that's all about. Drink Up.

Noodle

I am not a lurker per se, but it's time for my all to infrequent "Noodle posts three or four posts on PWeb and forgets to check back for a few months and then it's been so long that he can't find where he posted so he doesn't know if anybody replied to him" post. So yeah, here I am. Still ...

Noodle

I'm sure nobody remembers me
Shirley you jest, Mr. Co-founder.

I don't jest, and don't call me Shirley!

Noodle

It's been too long since I've been on here. I figured you all had moved on to bigger and better pastas.

I'm glad to see this place is still around, and still has some of the same threads and people I remember from my time here. I'll try to stop in occasionally to say hi!

Noodle

hey! someone does remember me!

Noodle

I'm sure nobody remembers me, but I still have fond memories of this place.

I can't promise that I'll return anytime soon to see replies to this thread, but nevertheless - Hugs for everyone on PWeb!

Noodle

Happy to hear you were able to get your data back.

Not to sound like I'm lecturing you, but this is what backups are all about. The easiest backups I've found are at www.mozy.com. 5 bucks a month for unlimited backups online. OK commercial and lecture over.

Speaking of the xkcd blag there's this:
