livejournal bug

When I get comment notification mail now, and I click on a link like “unscreen this comment” or “delete this comment” in the mail, it takes me to the old school url and I get a message that the url doesn’t match the journal owner. Then I have to do it all manually, instead.

Does anyone know where one actually reports bugs like this? The Support thing has never worked for me; I get a response six weeks later after it’s all fixed asking me why I’m reporting this because it’s all fixed.

  2. How to turn anyone into a zombie with Photoshop.
  3. ThinkGeek has a good reason for all of us to hate both geeks AND Valentine’s Day.
  4. The hits just keep coming at UCI Medical Center here, as it now turns out they may have taken payola to sneak someone’s kid into a residency job.
  5. Right-thinking folks be warned: FOX News is sliding insidiously to the left. (thanks, Vark!)
  6. Here’s a cheap way to make a satellite. Take an old space suit, stuff some radios in it, and throw it out the airlock of your space station

I want to meet a surgeon, preferably plastic surgeon in the NewPort beach area. Make me perfect so you will be proud. I love to go to the movies, dinning out, DVDs in, rainy nights, sunsets, dancing, my 2 wonderful kids (14 and 11), God, travel, sight seeing, shopping, horseback riding, SCUBA diving, skiing, going to the gym, relaxing at home, redecorating my humble apartment, good food, good wine and good movies. I enjoy the finer things in life.

Me: I am sweet, 5’8″, blond (gold) and blue, family oriented, also like to be alone, romance, roses and candles, aromatherapy and music.
I currently work in billing for a large clinic.

Snakes finding out about shitty charter airlines

zebulon_y and I were going back and forth about the whole SNAKES ON A PLANE movie meme/joke/thing. I realized that there were important prequels, sequels, and spinoffs, including:

  • Snakes stuck in traffic on the 405 at La Cienega on the way to the airport
  • Snakes getting dumped in Salt Lake City by Delta and having to pay for the motel themselves because it was an Act of God and only getting a shitty little personal care kit and a free van ride out of it
  • Snakes taking RyanAir to Stockholm but going to the wrong airport that’s so far away from town that the four hour cab ride totally fucks them and they might as well have taken Lufthansa, plus they miss their appointment
  • Snakes stuck watching Serving Sara for 90 minutes with no sound, which is only marginally better than hearing the horrible dialogue
  • Snakes getting the shits something fierce after eating a ham sandwich from a dubious vendor at the Baltimore airport
  • Snakes arriving at Philadelphia only to find out that their luggage was sent to Pittsburgh instead due to a tagging failure and will not be available for two days
  • Snakes on a bus from Ontario to Santa Ana at 2:30 in the morning because they missed the last flight into SNA before it closed and got dumped 40 miles away
