cyanide! you weren't there just vfaulkner, now I sign in there be you , wow!

I was just going to tell vfaulkner that I don't see any problems, and I'm only on my 47" plasma set to 14,000 by 11,500! But you save her ! From killing me! Thanks! I notice too! Please remain calm, and wait for minstrel to get here. He is trained to handle crisis situations, and in the name of all that is Holy, get his scotch ready. Stat!
Make mine a double! Schnell!

Wen was kind enough to direct me in here after I asked a similar question in "She said, He cowered"...

So, now, everyone, remain calm - repeat slowly and softly, it's only a banner, it's only a banner, it's only a FREAKIN' HUGE BANNNER!!!

There now... everyone feel better? my scotch please, Mik? thanks...

*sigh*

first Kanoodle guy, now this...

Does anyone have a screen shot of this HP ad so I can tell the Powers That Be which ad needs to be removed?

I think it may have been corrected, 'cause I haven't seen it this morning.

It was mostly red, approx. 368x68 px
It was a rotated banner, directly to the left column.
When refreshing the page it would come up every fourth time

Disregard that. We've found and fixed the ad.


hmmmm gremlins in the machine?

"There's something on the wing! Some... thing... on the wing...!"

Actually, I think it was Kanoodle guy. Something tells me he's been up to no good all along...

Good grief, no! Believe me, it wasn't something you'd want to save - a little hp at left and a huge ROI at center right was about all I remember... I don't even know what they were selling - that's how annoying it was...

YES! Like when you lend your car to a friend, and then all the 'settings' are off! Nothing's where it should be! I hate that! Man, some people are just so annoying. I knew there was something wrong with the way he looked!
