Just announced, the 'Dead at 54' section dead at 54...
By Vladinator, Section Dead at 54 Posted on Wed Feb 23, 2005 at 10:22:39 AM GMT

Wow, it seems we are too lazy to even post obits anymore. Anyone interested in keeping the site up? Should I just shut it down?

I was talking about closing the whole thing down really. No one uses it. It's not even as sucessful as guppylog is for christsakes.

Sigh. I am so filled with ennui that I don't even have the energy to kill the webserver process on the server.

I just added the 'dead at 54' thing to sort of justify the topic. ;-)

Why are you so down? It has been slow here before, it will get better, winter blahs or something.

So come fix my computer and put me online and I will write stuff!! Ha!
Or you could just come fix my computer and put me online?

You know why I have not posted lately (when I can get to a computer I do!!)

Anyway...here are two almost dead at 54 posts.

1) Whitney Houston was taken to a hospital yesterday......she could die anytime now...and everybody said it was Bobby Brown that caused her to use drugs, etc. Hahahahah, I have a hard time believing that!

2) The Pope is better, but with his frail health, he too could go any minute. Sadly, I hate to see that happen, he was one of the most likeable of the Popes I have seen.

3)If anyone watched that Fox thing last night about celebrities without make-up, well, you should be guessing which ones will die soon! Man Farrah Fawcett is the ugliest old woman I have ever seen and that is really sad considering she was once gorgeous.

4) At least one of those damn Law and Order programs should die soon!! How about CSI?????

Sorry, I am in a very sarcastic mood today. ;-)

Only recent death was that "fear & loathing in las vegas" guy and he waxed himself. Screw him.

Key points for learning leetspeak (none / 0) (#4)
by Bold Marauder on Thu Feb 24, 2005 at 01:15:35 PM GMT

Numbers are often used as letters. The term "leet" could be written as "1337," with "1" replacing the letter L, "3" posing as a backwards letter E, and "7" resembling the letter T. Others include "8" replacing the letter B, "9" used as a G, "0" (zero) in lieu of O, and so on.

Non-alphabet characters can be used to replace the letters they resemble. For example, "5" or even "$" can replace the letter S. Applying this style, the word "leetspeek" can be written as "133t5p33k" or even "!337$p34k," with "4" replacing the letter A.

Letters can be substituted for other letters that may sound alike. Using "Z" for a final letter S, and "X" for words ending in the letters C or K is common. For example, leetspeekers might refer to their computer "5x1llz" (skills).

Rules of grammar are rarely obeyed. Some leetspeekers will capitalize every letter except for vowels (LiKe THiS) and otherwise reject conventional English style and grammar, or drop vowels from words (such as converting very to "vry").

Mistakes are often left uncorrected. Common typing misspellings (typos) such as "teh" instead of the are left uncorrected and may be adopted to replace the correct spelling altogether.

Non-alphanumeric characters may be combined to form letters. For example, using slashes to create "/" can substitute for the letter M, and two pipes combined with a hyphen to form "|-|" is often used in place of the letter H. Thus, the word ham could be written as "|-|4/."

The suffix "0rz" is often appended to words for emphasis or to make them plural. For example, "h4xx0rz," "sk1llz0rz," and "pwnz0rz," are plural or emphasized versions (or both) of hacks, skills, and owns.
