Good Call
Might be time to form a posse. FDO might need backup. Then again, the Evil Queen obviously runs things in the real world. She might have said, "It's a holiday weekend, Scott. Stop that computer sh** and spend some time with me." But if it's actually JA, then we need to pull ourselves together and do the thing that, well, we need to pull ourselves together to do. (What the hell did I just say? I need an adult beverage...)
"Everything takes longer than it does." --Me
He has been awful quiet...
Did JA get to him????...Tsolo888 <AKA Cpt. Travis Ellis> - Out, Click here to Digg Infected
That thought
That thought had crossed my mind. We have not heard from Scott lately. Does anyone know where JA is these days?
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
UGGGHHHH!
I just got back from school and what do i see? no new episode. *sigh* i gess i have to wait till tomarrow! and that means after school tomarrow for me. (i wake up to late to listen to it before the bus picks me up) uggh! this is gonna suck!
Aggie James
I'm startiing to feel like Aggie. My head hurts, my stomach is upset, etc. well, you know the rest of the symptoms!!!!! Oh, by the way. My quote from the bottom is Macbeth aka Shakespeare
“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time;”
Dude i was thinking about the episode all week!
i was at Busch Gardens on a feild trip on friday with my friends and i saw a bald guy... I hunted this dude down to make sure FDO did'nt just walk by me! so ya...
Sigler...don't do it!
Crap, I can already see it coming... Monday's a federal holiday. I remember the last time there was a holiday in the vicinity of a weekend--Sigler's First Law fell upon us. Anyone remember this?
SIGLER'S FIRST LAW: Any major holiday that falls on a Sunday negates that Sunday's status as a "day," and therefore, the following day shall count for the inunterrupted string of "podcasts in a row."
Sig, you're certainly not going to pull out some horrible Second Law about holidays that fall on a Friday or Monday, and use that as an excuse not to put Nocturnal or Infected out on time...are ya?
Don't do it!
That's funny!!!! Glad you said it and not me cause I don't want to be in FDO purgatory!!!!!!!!!
“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time;”
And there you have it...
I guess this makes me the Prophet in the Church of Siglarism. What good is a Monday holiday when you don't have your fix to enjoy all day?
Sigler! Put the episode out! Do it for the kids. In fact, do it for MY kid; my little original junkie child! He'd post this, but he too young and can't type. Think of the children...! (How am I doing? Is it working?)
(always #1 in crack hits if other people weren't always ahead of me and SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)... "Everything takes longer than it does." --Me
Yes for the kids!
Sorry
I wish i could help...
You are Kidding..."for the Kids"?....
*I am the Rear Admiral but Sigler gives the Orders*
True, True.
we could always call out the amish

Let 'er rip
OK, unleash the Amish and birds. It's Tuesday a.m. and no new episodes of any sort in the feed. Granted, the FDO has until he posts them to ensure they're on time...
I guess the good news is there'll be a new Nocturnal, a new Infected, and even a new episode of that kick-ass ship the PB&J Keeling out today!!! Certainly that's why the on-time release has slipped to the right!
Don't forget
Don't forget the hummingbirds!
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
and some one needs to pickup more duct tape

http://www.pgholyfield.com/maah/
I'll get the duct tape!
Got it
Oh man, looks like I missed the party!
Maybe next time ...Tsolo888 <AKA Cpt. Travis Ellis> - Out, Click here to Digg Infected
There is no telling
There is no telling what a bunch of strung out junkies like us will do for our fix.
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
Clarity
Hungry
"Feed us. We hungry. Feed us. Feed us Now!!!!!" Are we muddying your thoughts yet Sigler??????????
“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time;”
Hey...!
OK, who keeps wasting votes by nominating non-eligible works? They're certainly Parsec-worthy, but if they're not eligible, then they can't win.
Don't let the FDO catch you doing this! In his wrath, he might have to take it out on a few non-OJs!
Round 2
After receiving almost immediate expert advice to add a quote at the end, how about this version:
(always #1 in crack hits if other people weren't always ahead of me and SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)... "Everything takes longer than it does." --Me
Are the rest of you hearing the footsteps???
lol "expert advice"
self quoting???? thats a bit of a no-no (tell that to ur wife)
Nate Dogg (#7 crackhits if SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)... "life is hard. But its one helluva lot harder if you're stupid"- -John Wayne
I don't recall
I don't recall ever quoting myself. Why should he tell me that is a bit of a no-no.
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
that phrase in ur signature
since u dont cite it as someone else's...
Nate Dogg (#7 crackhits if SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)... "life is hard. But its one helluva lot harder if you're stupid"- -John Wayne
OK then...
its only self quoting if you put it in quotes (or a signature)
you are the grasshopper my friend
Nate Dogg (#7 crackhits if SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)... "life is hard. But its one helluva lot harder if you're stupid"- -John Wayne
Stop it.
"Everything takes longer than it does." --Me
no you stop it.
or sigler might have to put us in timeout...
Nate Dogg (#7 crackhits if SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)... "life is hard. But its one helluva lot harder if you're stupid"- -John Wayne
Guys, don't make me use my Teacher voice...
-
http://www.pgholyfield.com/maah/
Yes Mr. treed.
(Nate, shut up. Rule-breaker. You're going to get us all in trouble.)
"Everything takes longer than it does." --Me
ive been waiting for you to say something like that.....
Nate Dogg (#7 crackhits if SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)... "life is hard. But its one helluva lot harder if you're stupid"- -John Wayne
You might have to.
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
Parent
Or maybe your parent voice!!!!!!!
"The other teams could make trouble for us if they win" -Yogi Berra
actually, they are very similar
-the teacher voice has a touch of the crazy in it (17 yrs of teenagers) OMG!! i just realized, some of my first students are approaching middle age!! HOLY SHIT, i could be teaching their children next ...... damn .....
i taught with a lady who had taught a couple of our fellow teachers... damn ...

Actually
It is just a common saying out in Colorado, where I am from. It is on t-shirts and I guess I could quote any one of my friends. I did not originate it and I do not think anyone knows who did. I could put anonymous after it, but who would think that it would be a big deal.
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
I wouldn't worry about it
Interesting side note, The first horse I ever rode was named ShadyLady (she was my Aunt and Uncles) , or maybe not that interesting...Tsolo888 <AKA Cpt. Travis Ellis> - Out, Click here to Digg Infected
Not exactly worried
It's just a fun saying. I don't know why N8man seems to think it matters to anyone. That is an interesting side note. The full name of the mare in the picture is Shady Lady. She is actually my husbands horse. Mine passed away last year. I probably would have more, but we are moving to Germany in a few months. Shady will get to go to Virginia to live with a friend of ours until we come back.
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
Wow, that is interesting
I was just going off of your OJ name and it made me think of Shady, spooky, maybe our triangles are communicating :) ...Tsolo888 <AKA Cpt. Travis Ellis> - Out, Click here to Digg Infected
I bet that is it!
You know my legs have been awfully itchy lately. Here I thought that it was ant bites! What was I thinking.
A cowgirl is a woman with guts and a horse.
it doesnt im just trying to give signature advice
No, it's OK. I checked.
well, OK, since you told yourself it's ok
-then by all means, do it...............
LMAO

My votes are in! If the
My votes are in! If the FDO doesn't clean house, there may have to be a few more junkies that need a little special attention from the FDO... and I know that you know who you are. VOTE.
BTW, I'm not much on signature lines, but I've been working on one. I'd love to know what everyone think about this one: (#1 in crack hits if other people weren't always ahead of me and SOMEONE doesn't keep trying to pass me)...
Nate Dogg? Thoughts?
lol...
needs a little work. throw in a quote at the end, <sarcasm>my padawon</sarcasm>
ps yes i voted.
