Happy St. Pi's Day! No, wait... this is what happens when I do two holiday micro-events in a row. Anyway, welcome to our little ceilidh! The first thing you'll notice is that the front page (..) is a little different (again, readers of at least twelve months' standing will recognize the modified banner). But it goes deeper than that. Poke around the site and see if you can find any link graphics that aren't lighting up green today. (My thanks to a certain mysterious colleen named Nan for helping me out with the images.)


And there's more! Tarn-Vedra, one of the newer members of the 5MV family, is an Irishman himself -- and after he decided whether or not he should be offended at my rather corny greening of the site, he wrote a Top 10 list to go along. Check out the Top 10 St. Patrick's Day Events on Voyager (../top10/70.html).


That's all for today (I did say micro-event), but I haven't used enough Irish clichés yet, so let me get a few more in. Begorrah! Shillelagh! Blarney! Top o' the mornin'! Four-leaf clovers! Leprechauns! Pots o' gold! Okay, I'm done.

Not lighting up green:

Voyager, TOS, Andromeda, DS9 and Videogames links. Five-Minute Cheese, and all the exosites.

But pretty nice, anyway.

*sings* The Minstrel boy to the bar is gone, in the ranks of drunk you will find him...

*gunshots* Alright, alright, I'll stop.

That Top 10 list is the best thing I could've possibly awoken to. :lol:

They work just fine for me. Try reloading. Anyone else have this problem?

Works now; cache issue. Sorry for crying wolf.

Heh. Wait. CAN you violate the prime directive 16 times in one day? Janeway must have finally installed the turbochargers in Voyager so that she could visit that many planets, because you can only violate it once per planet per visit.

Ah, well. DRUNK!

Wow, you really outdid yourself. It's all so green.

And Nan, I love the way you matched the green gradiant to the black on the forward arrows.

Zeke, the link today to the "badly edited movie posters" points to the 5MV features page... ::blink::

ME WANT FUNNY POSTERS!

Hotaru

Standback, you'll discover if you scroll down a bit that there are a few links near the bottom of the page. Those would be the posters. Some Matrix thing and a treX-files or something of the like.

Thanks for the compliments on my list guys. It makes me happy to know that people appreciate all my hard work...I spent...minutes of my life working on that list...*tears up* I'm getting verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves...I'll even give you a topic. Enterprise slash fiction is neither slashy nor fiction. Discuss!

:lol: hey Zeke, that was fun! What should we pretend to squabble about next? Using 'which' or 'that' before a dependent clause? The serial comma? Whether Canadians actually have any regional cuisine? :D

Maritimes: Everything tastes like fish (even Tim Hortons).
West Coast: Everything tastes like cilantro (even Starbucks).

Wah, I missed the green!

*Waits twenty seconds then refreshes*

Shoot, that usually works as well.

Wah, I missed the green!

That's a two-stroke penalty if you landed in the water hazard.

You golf! Ahhh, that explains many, many things, Sa'ar.

No, Dad golfs. It's part of his job (he's a realtor).

He sent me to lessons once. The first thing the instructor said was "Who's here because their parents made them come?" I put up my hand and he said "You can go home now."

A quick note: I can't get into the site FTP for some reason. I'm sure it's just a minor tech issue that they'll be able to fix, but until they do, I'm stuck. So just pretend the site banner was changed to the Easter version (../images/easterbanner.png) this weekend.

Can we also pretend that new fivers are posted?
