PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

3. "Thank you!" |
Thank you both very much. I am truly enjoying it. I am trying to learn html, and this is an excellent place to do that. I am stuck at home a lot. When my husband isn't working, he's performing, and he takes our one working car. I have a one and two year old that would drive me completely insane if I didn't have a project. This just happens to be my latest project. I am trying to learn html, and this is an excellent place to do that. I am just thankful to have found a place like this to play with. BTW- Thank you to whomever is rating my posts. Umm how do you rate posts? I have looked all over the screen and can't find where to do it. Kismet

Yeah, what they said.And order yourself a book (something for beginners--Sam's Learn HTML in 10 Minutes or one of those "dummies" books)(By the way, Sam lied about the 10 minutes part--but it is an easy reference for the basic stuff.) I have noticed a rapid increase in quality here, so the kiddies must be napping a lot (or else they're sitting in their own filth much of the day. . . ). You've been a quick study! The way everyone's been suffering from their post-Survivor hangovers, you may want to switch to a once-a-week format, however, until things pick up again. And I always rate people I know/like a 10.

>study! Actually I don't need a book, my husband teaches computer classes. Confession time- He wrote up a template of sorts for me, while I'm learning. (Yes It's like cheating, but I don't care!)The kids wake up at the crack of dawn and normally quietly watch vidoeo's for about an hour in the morning. I normally write up most of the news guide the night before so I only have to update it for the overnight(i.e. Vamp & Superman)posts. We live in a tiny apartment, so it is easy for me to sit down for a few minutes and read (I have always been a speed reader). Posting is another story, which is why I don't do it all that much. >

>How many posts is too big do you think?
I have a very good computer, but I'm presently stuck at 56K, and it might as well be 13. . . Sometimes, very short threads (like this one, when it had all of 4 posts. . .) will take forty tries to get to load, other times, I'll accidentally hit a "View All" and wind up with 56 posts with no problem in very short order. (Yes, it is a pisser!) In general, once they get to be around 20-40 posts, I am very hesitant to bother loading the whole mess--and definitely reluctant to slog through it post by post. (And it's REALLY a pisser when I go ahead and find out what all the brouhaha is--only to find it's Vamps and Supe having PG-rated cybersex for 1284 posts! ) So how long should you go? I dunno. . . maybe when people stop kissing your arse, it's time to start a new one? (And eBug--you cracked me up! hunger and permanent markers. . . Luckily, my kids are old enough that I can say, "Okay, kiddies--you've earned Nintendo privileges!" and I'm set for hours! ) GT

14. "Update Solution etc." |
Actually, ebug.. Talking to you made me forget to thaw the chicken. Attempting to chat in the daytime allowed my son to find the one permanent marker we have in the house. Y'all don't owe me crap. When I get bored with this I'm outta here! Of course, it takes so little to entertain me that probably won't happen. GT thanks for the advice. I will do a new news guide when this thread hits 25 or when my ego needs a boost. (Damn you! The kissing my arse comment got me to laughing too hard, and alerted the children to my present location!) Ebug had the best analogy for this board I've ever heard. She said it was like high school(though personally I feel it's more like college). You hang out with friends, gossip about who likes who, study occasionaly(spoilers), and go to fun parties(chat). The regulars are like the popular older kids, or the guys who are in their thirties and haven't even chosen a major yet. I am like the freshmen transfer student. I just have one question. When is hell week and what fraternity do I join? Love you all,
Kismet

10. "RE: Eye in the Sky News Guide May 5, 2001" |
Thanks for the Kudos Kismet!Just a little info. below on the party! Gervase from S1 was the featured guest. He signed autographs and gave interviews on the news, answered questions from the audience, judged a survivor look alike contest, etc… Our VIP package entitled us to special seating, free drinks, $40 worth of gambling money, free dinner, survivor coffee mug, survivor bandanas, channel 9&10 shirt and hat, and other trinkets.
Gervase was a really nice guy, signing autographs, posing for pics, answering lots of questions. He had a few interesting things to say: He was really shocked at Susan Hawk’s speech to Kelly and said he would have gone over and wrung her neck if he could have.
He felt he was portrayed fairly by the producers (90% fairly anyway!) and his strategy was to be himself and also that being “lazy” was intentional, to kind of ease in under the radar then win as many challenges as he could when he needed to.
I got my pic taken with him and can’t wait to get it developed. He signed nice 8x10 glossy pics for us, signing mine, “Rats do not taste like chicken!” He signed one for a friend of mine, “Stay away from naked fat men!” and another, “Stay away from grubs!”
I took the $40 in free casino cash and parlayed it into $383 ($343 in profit) in an hour and half of blackjack, so that was pretty cool.
Gervase also picked Keith to win, thought he’d pull off the upset…probably suffered jet lag! (He flew in from California). He also shamelessly plugged his website on the local news: www.gervase.net (if anyone's interested).

Things are looking great Kismet. You keep on going and you'll be running your own site soon. Thank you for taking the time to get it together for us all. And thanks to RR for the scoop on the party-sounds like it was alot of fun, and profitable too! Would be cool if you could scan your pic w/ Gervase and send it in...unless you're like me-a wee bit shy

My mother has been diagnosed with lung cancer and I will be spending most of my time from now on caring for my younger brother who is autistic, as well as my own kiddoes. I really enjoyed meeting and chatting with all of you. This is a wonderful online community and I appreciate the warm welcome you gave me. I feel like I've been here for years and it's only been a month. I hope that I will have time to pop into chat and read the boards every once in a while. I just have no idea what to expect, or how hectic everything will be. Thanks for everything,
Kismet

Since I can't really string together one big long speech at this time (I'm just as shocked as you probably were when you heard this), here are some small snippets that I would like you to hear...I'm very sorry to hear about your unfortunate twist of fate, Kismet. When you say that this is a wonderful online community, you're part of it too and you are no exception. If I ever do see you on the boards, you can bet that I'll be happy as heck you're there. Don't worry about the news guide, Kismet. If your mother is sick, then the guide isn't as important as that... You're the best person I ever reported for and we will all be waiting in anticipation for your triumphant return! I hope things get better for you! One last "meh" for you, meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here's to you, Kismet! ================ Survivorerist

28. "See what I mean?" |
Thank you all for the support and prayers. I truly appreciate it(I seem to say that a lot around here). I think I made it sound worse than it is. We just got the test results yesterday. We don't have a treatment plan yet, but it will almost definitely include chemotherapy and radiation. We do know that the cancer is treatable, and the doctors are optimistic. I am a big believer in the power of prayer, and I am sure that everything will be just fine. I am glad to have a place to go to that is guaranteed to make me laugh. Until we know more of the treatment schedule, everything continues as normal for me(isn't that strange). I will try to pop in here when I have time. Besides, there is a major bonus that you are all overlooking. If Love Cruise winds up like Boot Camp *shudder*, I won't be forced to watch. Love to you all,
Kismet

I read everything that everyone else has said, above, and consider it a ditto from me!I remember when you and I first met in the bar, Kis... you showed me pictures of your kids before you even introduced yourself... A few days later, we were discussing a rather humorous flame, and someone mentioned that they wished that there was a place to keep track of the goings-on of the board... I immediately turned down the job (before anyone even asked), but you took it on, and turned it into much more than I ever could have. I wish you the best of luck in your situation, and look forward to seeing you (even infrequently) on this board... hopefully, people will carry on the news thread... May your chopper fly on, Kis, and as cliche as it may seem, I send my best wishes!
