TK makes a fool of himself[edit]
I'm not surprised. A bit disgusted, but not surprised. I get the impression that the CP Brain Trust regard "laws" and "rules" the same way they regard "science": as a nice decoration to stick on What We Were Going To Do Anyway to make it look a bit less repulsive. --Gulik 23:21, 18 July 2007 (CDT)

- Ouch, yes, it did. Now, put the random chunk that eats up a screen of text into another template, and include that in User:SirChuckB/sig like this:
sig2 = the random stuff, with the link to your talk page.

Oh wow.... I didn't see that it was doing that... and you totally lost me... what do you mean? SirChuckBWhatever happened to Skip It? 14:35, 24 January 2008 (EST)
Use two templates - see how I use user:Human/sig as the "main" one that I put in my prefs. It includes user:Human/sigtalk which has all the random stuff. That way, your sig is still randomised, but the random stuff isn't saved into every talk page you sign. If you want, I'll edit your stuff to make it do that, but it's always better to sort of understand it yourself! human 14:19, 24 January 2008 (EST)

RE your recent comments on Human's page. Suggest you try The Gimp. It's free (apart from download time) although you'll need the help file as well & that's twice the size of the program.

Public education[edit]
I've started an article on public education (which I'm surprised we already didn't have). I feel the article has the potential for greatness, and it touches upon so many aspects of our mission (which may not be readily apparent, given its magnificently cruddy form at the moment).

"I'm a College Student in Colorado (Psychology and......possibly Music for the moment. Thank you for asking) "
Music is for fun. You don't need to pay college fees to learn it. But, by all means, learn it. I never regretted my thousand or so $15 payments to my guitar teacher. Yikes, math says that was $15 grand!!! Eh, it was probably only a few hundred lessons... Hi Chuck! ħuman 23:50, 24 August 2008 (EDT)
- Yeah, I was going for Math... but I was sitting in my Calc I class and the energy and passion for the subject just wasn't there.... So I sat and said to myself "Charles, stop talking to yourself in the middle of campus, people are staring at you." (yes, it's an old, cheap joke, but I like it) and finally decided that my passion lies with music... so that's where I'm heading at the moment.

I'm game[edit]
So, I'd like to hear your lengthy explanation of your comment on psychic powers at the poll. I realize the poll is tricky, as these are not really necessarily yes or no questions. While I don't believe in god or ghosts, I will not completely rule out the possibility that they may exist in some form. The lengthy miscellaneous paranormal section at the bottom is particularly tricky. You're quite right about science not having an explanation for everything yet. I was trying to stay away from that view, because clearly science has not answered everything (what caused the big bang? how did life originate? are two major ones), and dark matter wasn't what I was going for either because it is a very scientific concept. I think I was going for belief (or allowance for) something that from a scientific view is not currently deemed possible. I've seen a few things I am at a loss to explain and that I would believe were impossible. I don't exactly accept or reject them, but allow for the possibility that there is a supernatural, or there is a more scientific explanation that I have just not figured out yet. I don't think I really summed up that section too well, despite the verbage. But anyway, what's your take on the psychic element? DickTurpis 02:17, 20 September 2008 (EDT)

Well, I'm a barely pinkie, a greenie even when my veins show, but, yeah, Prop 8 was sad. Is it because the cullered folk resent the "civil rights" comparison?

That's right, you give the Negros even the possibility of becoming members of the Mormon priesthood and conservatism goes to their heads... I'm joking.

- Don't care. I think Adobe's pricing is disgusting & they deserve to be ripped off. I ran a ripped off P'shop 7 for years but wouldn't pay the price they're asking. I'm a Gimpoholic now although there's nothing wrong with Elements & Paintshop Pro. Fortinbrass 16:43, 11 December 2008 (EST)
- I wouldn't ever pay for Photoshop, because it's too annoying for me to use. If I ever seriously need a photoediting program for something other than online D&D games, I wouldn't be looking there anyway, so they aren't losing any money from me. But Dreamweaver (now owned by the same people) is simply disgusting. It's an amazing program, but the cheapest version is like 500 bucks. Start selling a $50 "home version" and you bet I'll be the first one to buy it. Until then... JazzMan 16:49, 11 December 2008 (EST)

- Yep. A music major friend of mine who does a lot of composition told me about it so I thought I'd look it up. Yowzah I like to fiddle around with music, but at that rate I won't have any money left over for the fiddle! JazzMan 17:02, 11 December 2008 (EST)
- Try tabledit - built as a guitar tab writing program, it converts back and forth to music notation, will play your stuff with all repeats etc., has a drum tab, allows (obviously) multiple instruments. Demo version (watermarks printouts) - free. Wanna buy it? $50. If you ever go listen to my mp3s, I laid down the drum and bass tracks using it. ħuman 19:59, 11 December 2008 (EST)

- I use an old version of Paint Shop Pro (v 6 or so). It's not as powerful as Photoshop, but it's still pretty darn useful. Lots of functions, customizable toolbar, supports layers in its native format, can save in all popular formats, also has "animation shop" for making ani-gifs. Lots of various older versions on sale on line for small dollars from what I recall from a search a while back. I built Trent's pretty barnstar using it. ħuman 13:56, 11 December 2008 (EST)
(unindent) Not to mention, Finale runs the Adobe route and once a new version comes out, they drop most services for the older editions. In other words, every couple of years you have to fork over another 400 dollars to get any kind of upkeep and help with issues. SirChuckBWhatever happened to Skip It? 17:08, 11 December 2008 (EST)

The Jinx baiting image on your userbox[edit]
So, I just deleted the image used in the Jinx baiting article that was also on your userbox, you might want to replace it (or find a convenient excuse to keep the other one). NightFlare 06:04, 28 January 2009 (EST)

Hey man, thanks for fixing and adding shits'n'giggls to the WIGO I posted. I am very hungover and extremely uninspired. Also, if accuse me of being Jinx like again I'll insert a large garden gnome in you. Good day! Ace McWickedRevolt 17:48, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
- Ace Ace Ace, you misunderstand me. I don't think you're anything like Jinx, but if anything represents Jinx style, it's string swears together while not being very clear on your intent. :-) Actually, your WIGO was a little too clean for Jinx. Not to mention Ace baiting doesn't sound like fun at all. SirChuckBWhatever happened to Skip It? 18:33, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
- Alright then, no need for the garden gnome enama. Ace baiting seems to be fun as far as my girlfriend is concerned though. She has had far to little beating recently me thinks. Ace McWickedRevolt 19:10, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
Some crap I posted in all caps at WIGO CP?[edit]
As far as I know, you're the only "darkie" on this site (Please forgive the phrase!!!). I hope you won't take my use of that disgusting term personally. It was meant as parody, but I know the internet sometimes ain't so great at tellin' jokes. So I came here to apologize in advance of whatever crap I wrote elsewhere.
Feel free to chastise me as necessary. ħuman 04:56, 3 April 2009 (EDT)

Notoriety[edit]
TK blocked my legitimate, non-vandal account over at Conservapedia - in his edit summary he said "bye-bye, SirChuckB!"

International Piracy?[edit]
The saloon bar thing seems a little harsh: am I missing something? I'm generally in favour of anything that prevents the "scientific" slaughter of whales (and their completely coincidental appearance in burgers a couple of weeks later), and although the methods Greenpeace employ can be a little dodgy, I've always considered them to be amongst the good-guys. Am I wrong? Silvermute 04:39, 12 April 2009 (EDT)

Timeclock program[edit]
Have you tried googling "timeclock program" or some such? "Time clock shareware"? Yeah, the second one brings up a lot... ħuman 02:46, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I did that... But most of them are either really expensive (like 150 and over) or include a bunch of features that I don't need, but are required to enter during set up like taxes and pay period and such SirChuckBI have very poor judgement 03:13, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
