I don’t know how many of you work in largish corporate organizations, but Lotus Notes is a pretty popular email client used by them, and the one I have to use.
Did you ever think it would be helpful to be able to sort your emails alphabetically by Subject?
There’s a quick and easy solution for your need — get a different email client.
Purpose: Determine a band’s leader by analyzing a publicity photo.
Disclaimer: A band’s inclusion on this blog reflects neither an endorsement nor a criticism of its music. This post is merely intended as a spotlight on the inner political workings of a collection of individuals who are in the midst of a cooperative, creative endeavor.
The Process:
You, dear reader, please answer the question, “Who’s in charge here?”
After sufficient discussion has taken place, a verdict can then be passed based on a majority vote.
Band: The 1900s
Genre: Indie, with keyboard flavoring and garage drippings
Website:http://www.myspace.com/1900s
The Verdict (UPDATED!)
Barbara put her faith in the leadership of the hat-wearing dude, while the majority of the remaining votes went to the vivacious, big-teethed ginger plopped down in the center of the picture.
Manx indicates that he believes Ginger was also the photographer, but, if you don’t mind me adding a couple cents to the pot, I think it’s hat dude taking the pic.
Noting that Dr. Zaius voted for the photographer, if the photographer was indeed the hat dude, then that would make it a tie for leader of the 1900s. Seeing as we don’t know for certain who the photographer was, Ginger keeps the crown!
Yay! – We picked up a Macbook Pro laptop today!
Boo! – I couldn’t figure out how to get it to connect to my wireless router!
Yay! – The laptop can connect to the ‘Net when I hook it directly to the router via an Ethernet cable!
Boo! – Who gives a flying f*ck that I can connect to the Internet via an Ethernet cable! It’s a f*cking laptop! I want to connect wireless!
Yay! – I like John Hodgman, the witty gentleman who plays the PC in those goddamn Mac ads!
Boo! – I don’t like that Mac guy, the guy that was in the presumably-shitty new Die Hard movie. My problems are all your fault, stupid guy whose name I won’t look up!
So, now you’re thinking, well, why didn’t he just post using the Ethernet connection? You’re just like that asshead Mac guy, aren’t you?!!
BURN, BABY, BURN!
Okay, via Bubs, I see that Burger King has an online application by which you can create a Simpson character in your likeness, by supplying a photo.
I hadda do it. I hadda.
The site is Simpsonize Me.
Is it me, or is the name of the site a little uncomfortably close to a cautionary tale by Morgan Spurlock?

I don’t wanna wait a whole week to start a band on my new Who’s In Charge? blog.
So I’m going to let the 1900’s post complete here, and I’ve started a new band on the other blog.
Please pardon the dust.
One of the finer moments of The Kids In The Hall.
I came up with a Who’s In Charge Here? feature a month or so ago which I got really excited about, but have been kind of frustrated with how it is turning out.
The frustration mostly arises from the fact that the feature gets buried under all the other crap I post on this blog.
So, I’m spinning the feature off into its own blog, Who’s In Charge Here?.
The 1900s post which I just recently made will be the last you’ll see of the feature on I, Splotchy.
If you like this feature, I’d really appreciate you visit the new blog from time-to-time. At this point, I’m planning on doing a Monday post, leave it open for voting for the entire week, then announcing the verdict from the tally of votes on the following Monday.
Thanks for your time and consideration. Perhaps, together we can move on up to that deluxe apartment in the sky.
