The links don't actually appear on my page, though. Is there another step to activate them, or should I wait some time (more than 4 hours so far) and hope they show up? There are no other steps, but there is a delay. JU recently started caching the sidebar results, so you have to wait till the cache expires for changes to show up. After

Reply By: AndySocial Posted: Saturday, January 21, 2006 There's no actual help for JoeUser is there? No FAQ, no documentation, no support links... So, anyone want to let me in on the secret way to create a "favorites" blogroll? No, there are no official instructions. To add favorites: 1) Follow this lin

Side bars not updating again... What terp said. The sidebars -- i.e., Newest Articles, Latest Forum Posts -- on all sites, including www.joeuser.com, are not updating. It's really a bummer since that's what I depend on to surf JoeUser by. (The forum pages choke my aging computer.)

"Justice delayed will not be a justice denied, as Sam Alito will receive a fair up-or-down vote and join the Supreme Court before month's end," "...and join the Supreme Court before month's end" ???? I think he meant "a fair up-or-up" vote! I've heard of kangaroo courts, is

I see you are feeling better I always joke, regardless of temperament. That's the way my brain works. I've been wondering if it's a bad idea to make the ER staff laugh. Does it cause them to take me less seriously? But a punchline's a terrible thing to waste. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgCol

Um, do I have to reply to everyone? Oh, okay... Update: I had a follow up visit Saturday. My doctor has settled on a diagnosis of Benign Positional Vertigo (BPV -- and boy was it amusing watching the Dr. try to pronounce that). Of course, that was his almost snap decision, prior to any tests, and he's never varied from it. Me, I like evidence. And it totally ignore the numbness and other symptoms, but what the hay? Let's nail that s

This isn't as blatant and over the top as, say, Bobby Knight's "If it's inevitable you may as well lay back and enjoy it," but it's heading there. If the quote is accurate and complete it was a little insensitive, perhaps even offensive. He apparently made no mention of, gee, maybe the guy is guilty, or "I feel sorry for anyone who is actually raped." Naw, just -- that poor li'l ol' football player, he was a pretty good 'un, too.

Everyone seems to be missing the point that this was a bit of Lucas Bailey bashing ...er... revealing. I agree, he clearly lacks the linguistic ability to run such a site, despite claiming it as his own. As for the practically irrelevant to the point of the article question of whether embellishing is lying, my definition of lying is "communicating with the intent to deceive." If the prospective employee's intent is to deceive the prospective employer about some aspect

I spent the week in the hospital. When I tried to get up from bed last Monday, the world suddenly spun and went black and I toppled to the floor. Timber! My left hand and the left side of my face went numb. Even while laying there, the world still seemed to spin wildly. After a few minutes I tried standing up again. Same result. I'd fallen and I couldn't get up. I thought I should go to the emergency room and get checked out. Ever since Harry Reid had h

Here! Copious amounts of green tea. I make a health drink consisting of apple juice, aloe vera juice, apple cider vinegar (the white stuff won't do it, sorry), and green tea. I drink it every day with a high dosage Fish Oil capsule. I swear it is saving my life. I take it twice a day (along with the copious amounts of green tea) when I'm feeling a little under the weather. Prior to formulating the

Operating an unregistered vehicle is illegal. "I didn't expect my friend to play me for a chump by allowing me to commit illegal acts" is not a valid excuse for breaking the law. Except the ticket wasn't for driving an unregistered vehicle, it was for the vehicle being unregistered. And since that's what they specifically had a probl

Seven? Or Silence of the Lambs. You know, Christmas movies.......... Hmmm, good idea. I think I'll slip "Silent Night, Bloody Night" into the DVD player. Then for a follow-up, that terror classic, "Santa Claus Conquers The Martians."

Sounds cool. Too bad they don't have a lower bandwidth version for us dial-up troglodytes. Unless someone decided to send me a cable modem for Christmas (as if), I'll have to settle for a Pandora bookmark for now.

Heh, I'm usually poking around at this time. (Right now it's about 5:24 A.M. Mountain time.) I just finished watching "The Five People You Meet in Heaven." Kinda maudlin, but what did I expect from Hallmark Presents? Hope you feel better soon.

I've visited DU. It's not exactly a brain trust. Therefore they are more likely to get riled up about someone burning a flag rather than a illogical tax cut. How smart is it to "know" this, then not cast your issue in "emotional" terms? Speaking to people in their own vernacular is basic. Also, I hate to disappoint our lit

8:02 P.M. Four loud pops, like someone slamming a mailbox opened-and-closed repeatedly, shattered the quiet. My cat started up, then looked back and forth repeatedly, trying to locate the disturbance. I went to the patio window and looked out. Three teens were passing by on the street, two walking, one on a bicycle. The one on the bicycle raised his right hand above his head and started firing a pistol into the air. Bang, bang, bang! Three more shots to add to the four he'd just fi
