Phantom

phantomdancer — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 22:40:52 GMT

In my little corner of the blogosphere my friends have been shocked and saddened by the relatively sudden passing of dancingshaman. Huge efforts have been made to assist britgeekgirl in her time of need. This floors me completely, and gives me a small bit of hope for humanity as a whole.

I did not know Alex at all. I might have spoken to Johanna twice in my life. Neither are actually on my friends list at all as a matter of fact. But I see many of my friends hurting, in shock, grieving for the loss of their friend. I also see my friends pulling together; doing what they can to help Johanna who could really use it.

I hope that when Alex passed, he did so knowing that he was loved so deeply by so many. I hope that he is in a better place, and no longer in pain.

There will be many many gaming events to get involved in for fun and prizes. In other parts of the con, there will be many charity events, dances, a casino night, and on Sunday a concert by Tempest!

I have seen lots of posts about people abandoning Livejournal for Dreamwidth lately, and I am kind of perplexed. Did I miss something?

Dealbreakers

phantomdancer — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 17:11:38 GMT

I was reading an article on relationship dealbreakers and I found myself wondering what my peanut gallery's dealbreakers were.

Check out the article, and then post your dealbreakers here!

Scotch advice.

phantomdancer — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 03:48:42 GMT

I know there's more than a few scotch enthusiasts out on my friends list. What's your favorite label?

Facebook relents

phantomdancer — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 16:18:04 GMT

Facebook, after enduring a shitstorm of negative feedback from users of facebook and the press, agreed to restore a provision of their Terms of Service that terminates their rights to your content when you cancel your facebook account. We'll see how this shapes up.

Attention facebook users

phantomdancer — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 08:20:03 GMT

I so enjoy seeing the notes and pictures you all post to your facebooks. You should however know about a recent change to their terms of service.

Read all about it.

Ooh a meme I find interesting

phantomdancer — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 18:41:42 GMT

Please reply with quaint/interesting/thoughtful/embarassing thing(s) about me you don't think everyone else on my F-list already knows.

I'll update the entry as y'all add things.

I have a feeling that responses to this meme will be few and far between, feel free to prove me wrong.

1. When my hair is long it has two distinct colors, light on top and darker underneath.

2. I don't blush often, but when I do it is apparently charming.

3. I apparently pull hair very well.

4. I am, it seems, charmingly old-fashioned.

5. I give good hugs.

Car Sale complete

phantomdancer — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 09:10:26 GMT

Thank You LJ Land, the previously mentioned car is now sold.
Please pull up to the window.

Car sale redux!

phantomdancer — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 17:23:18 GMT

Apparently my brother has decided that the car is not for him after all, so I'm letting all you lovely LJ people know that it is back on the market.
It is a red 1999 Saturn, it's in good shape, runs well, and gets over 35 MPG on average. Other questions, please let me know.
Thanks!
Editing as I think of things to add.
Passed smog easily in Jan '08
Insurance for me ran about 65$ a month for liability.
Original title.
New front tires, rear tires still have about 20k miles of wear in them.
Manual Transmission, A/C but as I live on the peninsula it hasn't been used in years. 180,000 miles, mostly highway.
Aftermarket CD player w/removable face.
expect more edits as I think of stuff.

Cool!

What I want for Christmas

phantomdancer — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 18:02:51 GMT

Big gifts. Seriously consider these...
1. I want my friends to feel as wonderful and spiffy as I think they are.
2. I want everyone to love and be loved in the way that they want.
3. I want everyone to love themselves and recognize that they and everyone else are pretty damn cool.

Those are the big ticket items. The big presents you could get me. Can't spring for one of those? Here's an idea for a stocking stuffer. I want to see my friends. I love you guys, seriously I do. Chances are you know who you are. So come hang out with me, ask me to a movie, I'll buy my own ticket. Or just give me a ring and say hi.

Even if you can't make one of the big ticket items happen, think about #3 for a bit would you please?

Car sale cancelled.

phantomdancer — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 00:25:30 GMT

It looks like my brother would like to use the car I mentioned previously, so I'll be giving it to him.
Nothing to see here, move along.

Dear Lazyweb, Car for sale.

phantomdancer — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 18:47:02 GMT

I am looking to sell my 1999 Saturn. This car has served me very well and still continues to run well. Please contact me if you are interested, more details and pictures can be provided.

For all West Wing fans

phantomdancer — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 19:40:49 GMT

I know a lot of my friends list are fans of West Wing. Best Buy has the full series on sale for 80$. This is seven briliant seasons and I'd highly recommend this even for people that have never seen it before. It's that awesome...

OK, who knows me and is shocked by this result...

Art Director resigns over donation to Yes on 8 group.

phantomdancer — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 21:16:11 GMT

I've seen a lot of people posting the donation lists to Yes on 8 suggesting that they boycott people and businesses that have donated. Well, it seems like this headline is almost inevitable.

No matter how you feel about the issue, I think destroying someones career over their personal beliefs is wrong.

I sometimes wish I could be this brilliant.

phantomdancer — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 23:55:38 GMT

Check this out guys, simply put one of the more brilliant ideas I've ever seen.
