Re: the Official Nikki Nova thread

there are a lot of cookie of the month clubs
http://www.club-offers.com/cookie/list/

ones even 450 bucks! thats crazy!

That's what I was going to say...There are a lot of them! And, as you noticed, some of them are more than a bit pricy! Ha ha ha! Hell for that amount of money, I'd rather bake and then send them myself! Probably save $400 easily! Ha ha ha!

For $450...I'd get someone a $450 gift card for Double Tree Hotels Gift Card & they could get their chocolate chip cookies for free! Ha ha ha! Speaking of which, I wonder if Nikki ever just checked into a Double Tree...just to get the "free" cookies (of course you pay for the room...ha ha ha)...then immediately left!?!? Ha ha ha! I know she loves her chewy chocolate chip fix...BUT, I'd say that would be beyond simply being an ADDICT!!! I wonder if Nikki considers Famous (Wally) Amos to be a dealer, supplier, pusher, or all of the above! Ha ha ha!

I know Vern. On some level it is a bit of a stress reliever as far as the economy and worries about the future and the global environment etc if the world is going to end anyhow BUT...I suppose we must still forge ahead "just in case" it makes it. hahahaha

Damn it, The world is not going to end in 2012. I was so going to use that as a pick up line durring the next New Year's Eve Party

I dont get to go on here as often as I would like. It was cool to talk with you on MFC even if it was for a bit.


I've had this cover stuck in my head for the past few days, and while it's not as hardcore and doesnt rock as much as the orignal by the Dead Kennedy's. It's just so damn fucking sexy. I love this girl's voice and love it when she laughs

Re: the Official Nikki Nova thread

A lil' late but my Monday Musings...

1). Skittles fizzies are my preference and why can't you just buy the fizzy powder and put it on any candy? That would make BILLIONS!!!

2). What's the internet equivalent to border patrol and how can I get me some *************** on my thread to keep the "unwanteds" out? hahaha

3). Is America becoming even MORE rediculous over the past 5 years or am I just seeing it that much clearer after that whack on the ol' noggin?

4). am I the only one that hates the term "settling down"? It implies that one was going wild beforehand and somehow the word settle seems a bit insulting to ones choice. Just sayin...

5). Why have I been eating a pound and a half of Okra for 9 days straight? I have been craving okra like crazy. I do that with food. Always have. I went through a lima bean phase that lasted a couple of years. Oh and there was that cucumber decade. I don't see others with these wierd food patterns. WTF?

6). Genocide has happened throughout history many times over but why not idiocide? I would love to rid the world of all of the idiots and it would really help the population control issue as well. Just sayin...

7).I really wanna hang with Stewie Griffin for a day or so. That would be cool.

8) Why are people so fascinated with the McRibb?

9). I really really reeeeaallly REALLY wish I could time travel!!!

10). why do I have to do 10? 9 is plenty

1. Love the Fizzl'd Fruits ones too. Actually, I'm looking at 5 packs as I type! Rarely buy the regular ones. The only ones that I didn't care for though is the chocolate flavors pack. Needless to say, they don't make them anymore! My favorites are the Crazy Cores right now though. As for the stuff that makes them fizzle....they do sell it! It's called sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and citric acid! But, you might have an idea there...Skittles Dippers (where the powder would come in a separate pouch where you could dip the Skittles in it before eating them.

2. Hey I'm computer savvy, and I have a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice (graduated top of my class at Penn State) that I am not currently doing anything with! Ha ha ha! Just sayin'! Or am I one of the "unwanteds"? Ha ha ha!

3. No, it's not you....it really is. Not only more ridiculous, but more irrational, fragmented, and polarized as well! It used to be that you could have a respectful conversation with someone of a differing opinion...not anymore! You say a few words that someone disagrees with today...and you get someone wishing that you get cancer! It's sad though!

4. To me "settling down" implies giving up, and a willingness to accept the status quo. I don't believe anyone should strive to "settle down"!

5. You'd love it here in Louisiana....heck they put Okra in almost everything! I do develop weird eating patterns...they just don't last a year or more! Ha ha ha!

6. Only problem with ******* off all of the idiots...as tempting as that might seem (and I don't believe I have hidden the fact that I am a bit of an elitist & that I have contempt for idiots)...is how would we know who is smart then. It's the idiots that help the rest of us shine! Furthermore, some who are now considered smart would then be considered the "new idiots" as the bar for what is considered idiocy is raised! Like the idea in theory though! Ha ha ha!

7. Thanks to your Re-Tweets (you really do re-tweet some cool stuff...and for Twitter....than is saying something!), you got me following Lord Stewie! But yeah, Stewie and Brian are my favorites on that show! Stewie is by far the coolest homicidal, matricidal, homosexual (Seth revealed that Stewie is gay), ****** that I have ever come across! I'm sure in one day, he and I would have a helluva time with his desires at global conquest! Nikki, you of course would be more than welcome to join in on the mission!

8. I used to be...UNTIL I thought about what was in it! Thankfully, that came WAAAYYYYY before the heart ******! Nobody who cared about what they put in their bodies at all would ever eat at McDonalds! Ha ha ha! Though the fact that people clearly are fascinated with McRibs and the like "might" have something to do with the steady business that cardiologists seem to be doing these days! Ha ha ha!

9. That makes two of us! One of the first things I would do is go back to 1970 and track down my *** so I could kick him in the balls about 150 times with steel tipped boots! Ha ha ha! Just kidding.....but seriously, that would so fucking rock! I'd be tempted to profit from it....like make investments in the past to enrich myself in the future. However, as much of a history buff as I am, I believe I would just have so much fun exploring...that profiting from it would quickly become an after thought!

10. 10 what? Cookies? 9 is enough now? I always thought "Three's Company" & "Eight is Enough!" Ha ha ha! I thought they usually came in dozen packs! Ha ha ha!

With that, I am EXHAUSTED!!! Nikki, I hope you get to feeling better & I hope you and everyone else has a wonderful week!

I'm going to be "away" until Friday...working on things in "the real world"! Ha ha ha! But, when I pop back up on Friday...I will have a surprise for Nikki......That is DEFINITELY been a long time in waiting! Nikki...you should already know what I am talking about!;)

And I just bought a four month membership at Ballys Total Fitness....just waiting on the card to come! Aside from the fact that it is state of the art....they also offer Yoga classes (included in membership)!!! We'll see if I ever master the lotus position!;)

It´s not ******* and he´s in no legal trouble whatsoever. What he´s doing would fall under the "fair use" exempt from normal copyright laws. More here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_art

Patrick, From what I know and read...even from the above link....it definitely isn't that cut and dried as you seem to make it out to be, AND it would be up to a court to decide.
The legal status of fan made art in America may be tricky due to the vagaries of the United States Copyright Act. Generally, the right to reproduce and display pieces of artwork is controlled by the original author or artist under 17 U.S.C. § 106. However, fan art using settings and characters from a previously created work could be considered a derivative work, which would place control of the copyright with the owner of that original work. Display and distribution of fan art that would be considered a derivative work would be unlawful.

However, American copyright law allows for the production, display and distribution of derivative works if they fall under a fair use exemption, 17 U.S.C. § 107. A court would look at all relevant facts and circumstances to determine whether a particular use qualifies as fair use; a multi-pronged rubric for this decision involves evaluating the amount and substantiality of the original appropriated, the transformative nature of the derivative work, whether the derivative work was done for educational or noncommercial use, and the economic effect that the derivative work imposes on the copyright holder's ability to make and exploit their own derivative works. None of these factors is alone dispositive.

American courts also typically grant broad protection to parody, and some fan art may fall into this category. This has not explicitly been adjudicated with respect to fan art, however. Moreover, while parody is typically afforded protection under § 107, a court must engage in a fact-intensive, case-specific inquiry for each work.

Long story short, why would anyone want to deal with the legal bills that could easily accumulate from "playing around with" copyrighted material!?!? Definitely not worth it in my book!

Hey Nikki hope you're having a good start to the week. So far so good for me.

1. This reminds me of sherbet powder called Wizz Fizz we have over here in Australia. Probably more or less the same thing in the UK that Larss mentioned. Comes in a little packet and with a spoon. I used to have it as a *** and apparently it's still available. Think I should hunt some up for a trip down memory lane :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizz_Fizz

4. Nope you are not. It implies too much and puts everyone in the same category.

6. It's a nice idea lol But maybe there's some unknown benefit to having idiots?...or maybe there is a parallel universe somewhere that is idiot free?! Either way it reminds me a bit of this Gary Larson - the far side cartoon.

No, the laws aren´t very clear but as far as i know have noone ever been taken to court for making fan art, and there´s millions of fan art pieces and thousands of fan art sites out there. If you´re really so scared of getting in trouble you should probably change your avatar, because i´m guessing that you don´t own the copyright to that image and using it without permission would be just as much of a "crime" as editing an image in Photoshop.

Re: the Official Nikki Nova thread

Long story short Patrick, the reason why you don't see a lot of cases is because it isn't cost effective...not because there's no case! Big difference! Your argument would be like saying that because there aren't a lot of music piracy cases, then it must be okay to download music from fileshare sites, as long as it's for your own personal use & you're not profiting from it...or that music piracy isn't even a problem anyway! Again, cost effectiveness! Most aren't sued because they'd never collect much from them anyway! Doesn't mean that there isn't a case against them though!

As far as my avatar goes...unless the laws changed since I was in college...my use of it IS *******...along with most of the avatars in here. As far as me being scared...since I'm not using it for commercial purposes AND I didn't see fit to altar it in any way AND in the whole grand scheme of things, I don't really have a pot to **** in anyway (ha ha ha)...cost effectiveness wins the day!

Remember, essentially your arguement is a non-sequitor! Just because there isn't a lot of legal action being taken, does not mean that the action in and of itself is in fact legal! Far less than 1% of those who engage in music piracy ever see any action taken against them! Cost effectiveness my friend!

Finally, my argument never was that the person who posted the pic had anything to "really" worry about...only that what he did was likely *******! Again, big difference!

Okay, I've bored everyone enough with my legal mumbo jumbo! Ha ha ha!

Hope you have a wonderful week Nikki (and, of course everyone else)! See everyone Friday!!!
