Aw, c'mon Moth3r! I remember Jay saying he didn't mind sock accounts so long as they were funny!

Not that he would have any reason to tell me that....

No socks, okay guys? They can be funny and all, but I hate having to clean up that shit.

^ I was going by the above comment he made some time ago.

Ric, you have 24 hours to convince Jay that you are funny enough to stay.

Oooooh, a challenge!

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

It's Ric Olie! How could it not be funny?

Figured it was you Fink, sorry you got busted!

^ True that. Slow times here at OT.com, and as lame as I find this thread, it seems to have earned appreciation among the limited few who wander the off topic section, so apparently it must be destroyed!

24 hours to prove I'm funny? Now that is some pressure!

Moth3r - thanks for even considering this.

To the others who have played along with me - thanks for making this a fun ride. It would have been pointless if you didn't enjoy it too. And sorry about the deception. But it was more fun this way, right?

Jay - I'd love to hammer out some long hilarious essay about why you should keep me around. But let's be honest, I'm kind of a one-trick pony. I think I can still provide some entertainment, but it's going to be more of the same. It's not my fault George made me so one-dimensional. Regardless, I think I have to stand on my body of work to this point. Whatever your decision, I will understand and live with it. All I ask is for you to remember that we live in a pretty serious world, and it's nice to have someone who can point out the obvious in a lighthearted manner once in a while. I should also point out that it's been rough going for expository characters in today's economy, and I don't know how I could explain losing this gig to little Jimmy Olie and Ric Olie Jr.

Just go under your Waynes World 2 Del Preston persona. for a while.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

Leave it to the Moth3r to spoil the fun rather than tell Frink in private... ah well.

Nice knowin' ya Ric, hopefully this means more Frink (hey, that rhymes!)

Does it? Perhaps I am just rhymically challenged, but I don't hear it.

Geez, even when I'm in this thread, I continually find myself confused since I'm still so used to seeing "ric" and thinking ricarleite.

There is no lingerie in space…

Rick - Frink. It's a stretch, but I heard it when I made the connection. Not as much now.

I'm going to assume this is a rejection of Nanner's proposal, as opposed to a rejection of Ric (for the moment). By my clock, Ric has about an hour and a half left. He is still waiting for a call from the governor to stay his execution.

Since when does Jay DO anything other than pop in when someone has a suggestion / he updates the site? I haven't seen him post anywhere else in forever...

Ric won't be posting again unless he has been pardoned. It's been over 24 hours by a good amount, which could mean that Ric is in the clear. But no official word so far. It seems likely that Jay is too busy with the site update to be bothered with this for the time being.

I'm anxious to hear the final decision. If Ric were here, I'm sure he'd mention that I'm anxious to hear the final decision.

This is true - I think Jay has bigger fish to fry (like debugging the next revision of the forum software).

Just keep marching until the sarge shouts halt.

Ric could you possibly describe to us what a typical forum page on originaltrilogy.com looks like?

I'm sure we would all love to know.

What do you need me to describe that for? It's right in front of your eyes!

Sorry. I'm off the clock. And a little touchy about it.
