Cookies are BACK!
The latest version of the vbulletin forum software is making it easier to include tidbits of code without having it be overwritten, as we have experienced with previous upgrades.
As a result, the old Cellar cookie file is BACK - in the footer of every single goddamn page, underneath the time, is a freshly and randomly generated message. For those who haven't seen it before, the Cellar cookie file was collected out of several Unix fortune cookie files to start, and then I added several files of clever quotations, and then we had a few YEARS of Cellar cookie nominations. Someone would say something clever on the Cellar and someone else would say, cookie, and it would go into the file. I put a version of it into version 2 of vbulletin, but upgrading to 3 blew it out and I never had the time to put it back in. Now it's easy to put in, and won't be blown out again. So it's back, and permanently this time! And ready for new nominations. |

I should add, if you want to browse cookies for fun, just click on "Eat cookies" in the blue footer bar, below.
They are addictive, and fattening. |

Wow... only a week in, and I just got my first repeated cookie. There are over 2500 of them, right? I guess the math's not THAT unlikely...

I notice the cookie URL at Catalyst has stopped working as a result?

If there's anything left working at that address, it's by accident.

This one just popped up for me:
Passengers aboard a train from Margate, England, to London ignored a couple that engaged in oral sex in a first-class compartment, then moved to a packed second-class compartment and performed "full sexual intercourse". But when they had finished and lit cigarettes, several passengers became annoyed and complained to the conducotr that the compartment was designated non-smoking. --from the City Paper Newsquirks column I gotta say, it's not often that you run into a whole train car full of such reasonable people.

You know what's cool? Taking a look at the cookie, and finding yourself.
