 [ Summary: What happened to the new logo that was supposed to debut on

      Sigh...here's the situation.

      I am an idiot.

      I was told they wanted the clip for the Cable Ace Awards.  And they did.  
And it was shown.  But apparently it went out on the *unbroadcast* night, the 
day before, rather than the one they aired.  They wanted to split up the B5 
stuff for maximum result, so thaty had a clip on the non-broadcast night, and 
Bruce for the broadcast night.

      Me, I'm just in perpetual night.

                                                yrs, the idiot,

>>      Actually...no, I wasn't even aware of that until you mentioned it just 
now.  But I can see how it would fit.

You're KIDDING!

The fight work pray cycle representing Knights, Serfs and Clergy and written 
*word for word* as Neroon said it is about *eight hundred* years old.

I'll see if I can dig up an exact reference. I was certain you cribbed it from 
the Dominicans.

about reincarnation...

If you're ever about to fall down an Tachyon Stabilized Time Warp (c) 
Babylonian Productions Inc. I suggest you get ready to take holy orders and 
the triple vow...

      Nope...though the knights/serfs/clergy thing makes sense in that context 
of work/serve/pray.  It's also warrior/worker/religious caste.  It just kinda 
made sense when I thought it up.

      So now I have to figure out if I'm ahead of my time or behind my 
time....

"I think one of the problems in N. Ireland is some people hold a grudge for 
way too long."

      Granted.

      I was talking to one of the guys who worked on the shoot for "The Quiet 
Man," filmed in Ireland.  At the end of the shoot, they were going to have a 
huge wrap party, all the stars, crew, studio folk, the whole bit.  A big deal, 
lots of money.  The guy was setting it up through his aide over the phone from 
England, and after everything was all set, just a few days before, he called 
himself just to make sure everything was going ahead on schedule. The person 
in Ireland said it was all fine, and could he have the name of the person to 
whom he was speaking?

      "Cromwell," the guy said.

      They canceled the whole thing the instant he said that name.

                                                                    jms
