SPECIAL EDITION! (a sad story about a Macintosh)

[sab]

So Simple Text wouldn't open my html file to edit. "Too big," said Simple Text. A half dozen downloads for Mac text editors off download.com.com froze the computer on their way down.

Word, being word, made up its own kung fu HTML and spat out a gangrenous rhino of a file full of crazy characters and ugliness.

So I did what I do: I made runpunkrun help me. She valiantly stripped the file of all its nuisance HTML and sent it back, where I could, ostensibly edit it as a .txt file in Word and then manually make it a .html later.

Word had none of it. "Have some headers!" it shouted, muddying Punk's lovely p tags and css with its nonsense. "Have some forced line breaks!"

I cried and hid a little, and once more, Punk M. came to the rescue.

Enclosed please find DVD bonus track commentary:

A new device is being tested [Farscape, John/Scorpius, J/A, R, 90k with commentary]

Hand coded and elegantly streamlined by Punk M. Whom I suspect you will find had more than a little to do with making the story itself what it is today.

Let me know how this all works out for you. This was completed by request of sorlklewis and your feedback keeps this company going.

Then, if you're very nice, and if you know a good no-frills text editor for the Macintosh, I might even do another.

ALL HAIL PUNK.

Huh. I was wrong. I really did think John went batshit crazy about the point where they met up with the Charrids, and that much of the rest was hallucinations. Because it was all so easy after that, but even crazy John's mind wouldn't believe Aeryn would stay with him now.

Fabulous commentary, m'dear.

Re: the Fitzgerald thing. I believe John is named after Jack. Yah? And Jack would NEVER have Fitzgerald as a middle name cause Jack was born in, oh, 1935 or so? The Fitzes and the Kennedys weren't household names yet. So.

Actually -- and I can't remember if this is actually canon or not, but -- isn't John's middle name Robert? I swear it was John Robert Crichton, Jr., but, you know, I could be completely wrong.

Don't think they ever confirm it in canon, but that's what it says on Henson site and Sci-Fi.
