I'm often boggled at the phrases people have found my photographs by searching for, sonce Flickr is kind enough to save the searches for me. Sometimes I've gone a few pages in, trying to find one of my images without success.
Gotta say, though, that no one's ever found me by looking for that....

It was that book, in fact. But hey, it led me here, so I'm glad I came across it, haha.

Q:

Oh Gourd, was the book "505 Unbelievably Stupid Web Pages"? I can't imagine anyone reading that and seeking out the InExOb after that kid's cranky non-review. (I was given a copy one Xmas by a relative who had no idea my site was in the book)

Sorry to interrupt the conversation here, but I just wanted to give a belated congratulations to Bill on Thoughtviper's 15th anniversary! I remember first coming here about seven years ago after reading about the InExOb page in a book. Years later, it's still one of the funniest pages I've ever read. Thank you for several years of laughs, and may there be many more to come.

Wait, what? When she said it, was she loading her AK?

Hahaha! I totally forgot about the Ob's TV mention! Heather/Govynda caught it in a Circuit City I think, and then some guy wanted to sell me a 5 second clip of it on VHS for like $75. I kept bargaining him down to--I don't remember, like "$5.50 and most of this Big Mac" just because he was a jerk with a jerk's business model.
Killsy only comes out from under the bed when it's someone who held her as a kitten, which is pretty much her Auntie Jess. Otherwise, she's under a 500 pound waterbed. Byron Bigfoot will certainly watch with great interest us as we cripple our backs trying to lift it.

Mom asks about you from time to time. Most recently last night at dinner.

Bonne anniversaire, mon ami! Like Fal, I think I began reading 12.5 years ago too...but I may be the only one referred to your page via the auspices of Internet Tonight. Oh Surf Guru, how I miss you still...

But you know darned well we're going to meet IRL at some point...so I can give you rib-crushing hugs & refuse to leave until Killsy stops hiding & lets me pet her. (Everyone has a dream. That is mine.)

Wow, 15 years? I only started reading like... 12.5 years ago. Hi from Taiwan, and previously South Korea, by the way :p

Happy 15th anniversary! I haven't been reading *that* long, but it has been quite a while.

Re-reading my post, yeah, I kinda left it unanswered if Jess was about to have an attack. I think her readings from the books calmed her down.

Since you said excitement can bring on narcoleptic attacks, I was worried for the rest of your commentary that Jessica had too good of a time percolating & ended up having an attack--but presumably she didn't, or you would have mentioned it.

And I feel her pain re: animatronic dinosaurs. I was once walking around Lawrence Livermore Laboratory & went over to see their life-size dino display; I didn't know that it was motion-activated so when it lifted its head & roared, I jumped about three feet. Those memories are definitely encrypted in our lizard brains, no lie.

PS: No sooner did we find the rolling board than it turned out that Dad put the scones recipe somewhere unidentifiable. I had left it on top of the microwave for months so I would know where it was, but Dad being Dad...*sigh* Given that I've found frozen food in the cupboards, I can't foresee finding the recipe anywhere logical, though I'm still going to look in Mom's recipe books first.

Came for dinosaur pictures, stayed for the commentary. Amazing.
