  straying off-topic & marmites (was: Re: the best laid plans of mice and men)
 
(...) I don't think Scott named anyone in particular in connection with that label. He may even have been referring to a brief mail that I sent him. (...) I think this is best dropped. I don't think Scott broke any of the T&C, either. The closest (...) (26 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: Special deals at FAO
 
(...) LOL!!! Yeah, it saw that everything was overpriced by 30% and it wicked choked! :) No, actually the FAOS webserver is acting squiffy lately. If you hit the reload button a few times, it seems to display the page about 1 out of 5 times. Same (...) (26 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Interesting that you're bemused enough to complain about how oppressed you are, but not enough to do something to change the situation. Interesting also that you chose to respond only to the inflammatory parts of my post, rather than the real (...) (26 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I think Todd probably needs to add a catagory for over 100%. I don't know if Todd's process chocked when it saw the FAO prices or what. Actually I don't know why Todd bothered putting FAO in the list anyway. There prices are the worst (At (...) (26 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.admin.general)
