Subj: I'm surprised she didn't try turning it off & on again before calling tech support. That seems to work most of the time :)

  - The actual deck of cards doesn't appear until chapter 6. · HH has written that, but not chapter 5 yet. · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 01:40:13 pm EST

  - Well, Vizh and I were discussing who to blame. · HH thanks you for volunteering · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 01:42:51 pm EST
    - I pass the blame onto Nats, or ManMan, or both! · Al B. Harper · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 11:06:58 pm EST
      - It's hard to do that when they're not here to receieve it. · HH · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 03:33:16 am EST
        
        Nah, it's easy. See - I just did it. · Al B. Harper · Mon Dec 12, 2016 at 04:21:13 am EST

        Yes Yoda. · Al B. Harper · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 02:50:53 am EST
        
        To be Yoda one need not be, the truth to perceive. · HH · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 03:35:18 am EST
        
        Yes Dali Lama. · Al B. Harper · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 05:10:33 am EST
        
        The correct form of address for the Dalai Lama is "Your holiness". · HH · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 06:55:19 am EST
        
        Yes Sensei · Al B. Harper · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 07:45:11 am EST
        
        Sounds like the title of a brand new sitcom. · HH · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 10:32:59 am EST

        How embarrassing? · HH · Thu Dec 15, 2016 at 11:50:50 am EST
- I love it when a plan falls apart. At least one inspired by Kafka. · Visionary · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 11:31:26 pm EST
  - My plans are usually more O Henry. · HH · Fri Dec 09, 2016 at 12:48:21 pm EST
    - Whereas mine are more "Oh $#@%&!!!" · Visionary · Fri Dec 09, 2016 at 08:48:55 pm EST
      - Well, crap plays an important part in Chapter 6. · HH · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 01:48:50 pm EST
        
        I'll bring a shovel. · Visionary · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 07:03:31 pm EST
        
        Who brings a shovel to a gun fight? · HH · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 03:30:30 am EST
        
        Off the top of my head? · Visionary · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 08:13:00 pm EST
        
        Better than on the top of your head. · HH · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 10:42:09 pm EST
        
        True enough · Visionary · Mon Dec 12, 2016 at 08:56:33 pm EST
        
        The truth hurts. Especially on the top of the cranium. · HH · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 03:50:54 am EST
        
        Hey, I've been around Lisa enough to know that it hurts everywhere. · Visionary · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 10:13:43 pm EST
        
        Point to where on the Pooty doll she hurt you. · HH · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 11:30:58 pm EST
        
        Mostly in my pride and psyche. · Visionary · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 08:46:19 pm EST
        
        I'm not sure where those are on the stuffed bear. · HH · Thu Dec 15, 2016 at 05:58:22 am EST
        
        Perhaps listed somewhere under the "wash and care" instructions on the tag. · Visionary · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 01:13:48 pm EST

        Re: On states and fruit · HH may wander off into a bit of comics trivia here · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 06:41:09 am EST
        
        Very interesting · Al B. Harper · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 07:34:28 am EST
        
        Well researched. · HH · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 10:40:36 am EST
        
        That's that sorted then. (no text) · Al B. Harper · Thu Dec 15, 2016 at 06:41:19 am EST
        
        Re: I'll bring a shovel. · Al B. Harper · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 11:14:33 pm EST
        
        Usually you bring a spoon. For the stirring. · HH · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 03:34:33 am EST
- I'm surprised she didn't try turning it off & on again before calling tech support. That seems to work most of the time :) (no text) · L! · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 01:58:59 pm EST
  - The first thing that Tech Support will tell you is that almost nobody does that before calling them. (no text) · HH · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 02:43:15 pm EST
    - *text inside* · L! · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 02:57:07 pm EST
      - Also... · HH · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 03:34:35 pm EST

- The real question is...did the roaches survive? · Anime Jason · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 01:38:29 pm EST
  - They usually do. · HH · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 02:51:08 pm EST
    - I guess they'll be the sole residents of what's left of the building, then. · Anime Jason · Thu Dec 08, 2016 at 04:25:26 pm EST
      - Well, they are supposed to surive the nuclear holocaust (along with the telesales people) · HH · Fri Dec 09, 2016 at 12:43:53 pm EST
        
        Were they selling radiation insurance? · Anime Jason · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 10:29:07 am EST
        
        With certain small-print exclusions, obviously. · HH · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 02:08:54 pm EST
        
        Of course, it would be hard to collect when the company is nothing but ash. · Anime Jason · Sat Dec 10, 2016 at 03:22:59 pm EST
        
        A mere techncality. · HH · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 03:26:03 am EST
        
        I'm sure they have an equally worthless extended warranty for that. · Anime Jason · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 11:26:05 am EST
        
        For an additional fee. · HH · Sun Dec 11, 2016 at 10:04:59 pm EST
        
        Might be more than the policy itself! · Anime Jason · Mon Dec 12, 2016 at 11:56:39 am EST
        
        Insurance is just gambling with tragedies · HH · Mon Dec 12, 2016 at 06:46:20 pm EST
        
        Not much gambling left with the world destroyed. · Anime Jason · Mon Dec 12, 2016 at 08:30:36 pm EST
        
        Want to bet? · HH · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 03:21:21 am EST
        
        Not if the planet is destroyed. · Anime Jason · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 10:43:36 am EST
        
        All life is a lottery. · HH · Tue Dec 13, 2016 at 07:13:42 pm EST
        
        That explains all the losses. · Anime Jason · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 12:00:01 am EST
        
        And the occasional big win. · HH · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 02:43:14 am EST
        
        Still waiting for mine... · Anime Jason · Wed Dec 14, 2016 at 10:19:05 am EST
