Patrice O'Neil.

MIRANDA SERNA!!

According to Wikipedia, it's Patrice O'Neal. That saved me from having to post a question like "Who is John Galt?" err I mean "Who is Patrice O'Neil?" then on top of having to be told about a guy I didn't know, I discover Jonsey spelled his name wrong.

His picture made him look like a gangsta rapper. Until I read the article, I figured he died from lead poisoning like so many of that crowd.

Andy Rooney!

Did you ever notice when someone does speeches or articles that when the person begins their article with a question - especially a long-winded one - or if the question seems to be asked in a whiny tone, that there are inevitably comparisons to Andy Rooney?

Adam Parcells!!

Yeah! WTF!

That's utterly sick. You guys picked on me because I tried to offer advice to the guy, and didn't know he'd offed himself and his kids, notwithstanding the fact I didn't know the guy (I didn't know his real name and his handle disclosed nothing) and had no means to know what he'd done.

Now you make this kind of a comment. It's like someone saying they'd like to have a big event to commemorate the 9/11 anniversary, so someone suggests we knock down a couple of buildings to celebrate!

Then the guy looks at the horrified faces and says, "What, too soon?"

What? TOO SOON?!

This the new dead pool thread, then?

The guy who played Colonel Potter in M*A*S*H

Harry Morgan. And I didn't know he was dead. He also was Sgt. Friday's sidekick Bill Gannon in Dragnet.

Pinback, put a mask on!

I have a message.

If it's about my discharge, give it to me straight! I can take it!

Colonel Sherman T. Potter's plane... was shot down... over the Sea of Japan.

It spun in...

There were no survivors.

Pinback, you incompetent, it wasn't Potter who died; he was there until the end of the series. It was Henry Blake who was (supposedly) killed.

I say "supposedly" because The Carol Burnette Show (the program which followed the episode) had an opening scene in which McLean Stevenson was shown in a raft in the ocean, waving his arms and saying "I'm OK! I'm OK," which was a "take that" to the producers of M*A*S*H. (McLean Stevenson wasn't even told that his character would be killed off after he left the series.)

How did Bruce say it?

Sweet Christ.

Bruce is clearly and obviously feckless (in both senses) whose only capacity when questioned was to engage in ad-hominem insults. When I asked him what he meant, he first raised two insults about me that had nothing to do with the issue, he then questioned my ability to do something in a manner that clearly showed that he not only didn't read what I wrote, he knows less about Linux than I do.

He's a bore. He is a rash on the skin of the Universe awaiting the calamine lotion which will terminate his less-than-useless existence. The only thing left to do is floccinaucinihilipilificate him and I have now done so.

Bruce is the closest thing to an "enemy" that I have on this BBS, but I can guarantee that this is false.

I can't believe this, i mean dictators usually live forever and tdarcos is morbidly obese with a pussing leg. What gives?

It was inevitable


what?

He didn't understand that if you're running Linux on a Live CD, that you can shut it down without damaging anything because you do not have a file system requiring fsync.

He also seemed to think it was dangerous to shut down a machine when the video quits before you ever see anything as if you have any choice.

I stand by my statement.
