Title: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Soulless Mystic5523 on July 16, 2008, 10:06:01 PM: Is it just me, or has anyone else been having problems with the banner at the top of the page since the site crashed the other day?
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Helen™ on July 17, 2008, 12:21:07 AM: What kind of problem, Mystic? It's been fine for me. I click on it and it takes me to the main page.

Post by: Soulless Mystic5523 on July 17, 2008, 12:31:20 AM: It hasn't alway been loading. Instead of the nice pretty Black and lite blue banner, its only a the little red X of a failed to load image. It seems to be working now, but over the last day or two, since the site died the otehr day, it fails to load sometimes.

Post by: Helen™ on July 17, 2008, 12:39:43 AM: Ah...Nope. No problem with it on this end.

Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 01:05:16 AM: I'm sorry to tel you this, Mystic, but it just doesn't like you. I had to sweet talk it and make impossible promises to it to even get it to flash at you every now and again. Sorry.

I'm sure that's not true. Mystic was cheating on it, so it got upset with him. I'm sure it was just an accident with you.

I'm sure it was just an accident with you, too!

Oh, stop. You know you're an internet whore.

Post by: Soulless Mystic5523 on July 17, 2008, 02:33:33 AM: Oh, sure, tell the whole world why don't you. The banner is listening right now you know. I've been good and it came back, but now you're going to run it off again with these terrible rumors. ;D
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 02:37:06 AM: Rumors? *eyebrow*

You don't want me to crack open the .dat files, now do you?
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Helen™ on July 17, 2008, 02:53:21 AM: Really. He's clearly demented if he thinks the banner isn't aware of his "other" activities.

So, MSD, should we start the other thread? The one we discussed?
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 02:53:59 AM: Go for it. The squeeky wheel and all.... you know.

Post by: Helen™ on July 17, 2008, 03:01:26 AM: OK, but if Fred gets mad at us, I'm going to blame you.
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 03:02:56 AM: Ooooh. Fred. Forgot about Fred.

Nevermind.

*still has nightmares about Fred* His avatar scares me.

Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 03:15:02 AM: Drat!

I'm blaming the whole thing on you, you know. It was your idea.
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Helen™ on July 17, 2008, 03:15:46 AM: Prove it.

Now get over there and beg.

You really need to keep this part of yourself in the bedroom, darling.

We had a deal. Go do your thing.

Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Soulless Mystic5523 on July 17, 2008, 03:24:01 AM: You call that begging?
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 03:27:09 AM: I already told Helen. I don't beg. Period.

In the grand scheme of life, I am the begee, not the beggor.

Post by: Soulless Mystic5523 on July 17, 2008, 03:30:12 AM: This is true.

Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 03:53:58 AM: Hush, you! I wasn't there then, it didn't count.

But you can bet I'll be there when he's out promoting the next book! Wahooooooo!

But he never comes to Miami. You'd think we don't exist.

I wanted to be there (inlaws live there). For some reason, hubby didn't see the need for us to go to Phoenix ~~so I could meet Jim~~ to see his parents... I mean, just because they were coming here two weeks later...

Yeah, he's never come to Louisville either.

*can't hold straight face*

Ok, yeah, you got me there.

Even Broward would work. If he went to Fort Lauderdale, he could pull in all those fans who live in South Florida. There's lots of us if my bookstores are any indication. They all have at least two shelves of his books.

Post by: Murphy's Stunt Double on July 17, 2008, 04:07:45 AM: I think it might be a better sign if they were always sold out of his books. Wouldn't it?

Borders told me they allow his books to get to a certain number, then order more so they never run out.

Or good fibbers.
Title: Re: Jim Butcher Banner
Post by: Soulless Mystic5523 on July 17, 2008, 07:45:18 PM: So... I guess this would be a bad place to remind you that I live in the same city as him, and have gotten to see him almost every time he does a tour?

You know, I'm still having problems with the banner. Wondering if its something on my end or the boards end.
