Righto! Ya'll have until 1pm and then I'm doing the printy thing.

Best (or rather most time efficient) method I can find is simply whack the settings up to 40 posts and view it as printable and job done. Doesn't look great though... What I think I will do is grab all the text and then sit here Alt-Tabbing between this and some porn and spend the afternoon "formatting" (as I like to call it) on MS Word. If anyone has a better idea for the actual method of putting this together then please quickly let me know - I'd rather it didn't involve unfamiliar software and anything that would be a stretch for a toddler with a bit of pooter knowledge. Otherwise I'll just plug away and get it done. And then I'll do this job afterwards while I feel mellow.

(And I'm assuming if you're involved enough to be writing last minute messages you've also subscribed to all the threads, so I won't post this everywhere so I don't have to delete it from everywhere come 1pm. So there.)

I had no idea who you were on the Reinga ride. Since then i'll admit I haven't had much of a change to get to know you. However the amount of fuss thats been generated in your wake, however, makes you seem nothing short of a legend. You are held in high regard by people I look up to, and thats good enough for me.

Some days make you really glad you got out of bed. Seems to me to be becoming a more and more frequent occurance since I started kicking around with yous fullas. But just now something has really made my day.

I was at the Glenfield Mall (which should be enough to make you all jealous, but it gets even better!) and went to talk to Kevin at Inkworks to find out how much it was going to sting me for all the printing. I explained a bit about what we were doing and why, a bit about Tony and his situation and what we all think of him, and finally about what I needed doing print wise (roughly 200 pages of black & white and bound). Before I got to the bit about asking for a good price and that I would supply the paper, he jumped in with "Yep, I'm happy to do that for you for free as sponsorship". I just about fell over, as I would have been chuffed with just a good price - especially considering they are a couple running a small business, not some huge outfit that can afford such things without blinking. Also, although I have had one thing printed there months ago he doesn't know me at all. So printing, paper and binding is costing absolutely zero, courtesy of the wonderful Kevin & Belinda van den Berg at Inkworks, Level 3, Glenfield Mall.

If you ever need any printing done (I've had them print my online workshop manual for the CBR) please make an effort to send business their way - and say why. And if you're passing, maybe just stop and say thanks (I have about 486 times already!).

Isn't humanity just awesome sometimes?

And in turn, this has made my day. I have just flicked him an email to personally thank him. What a very generous thing to do, especially given the current economic climate. Thanks for doing this too, it will make a wonderful thing for Tony to keep close, and for his family to have.

Just a crazy thought, I work in Albany, if you could get them to my work tomorrow between 8 and 5 I could pack them in my car

Just got finished with the formatting and such. 190 pages/45,000 words. I had to laugh when MS Word farted and popped up with "This document contains an excessive amount of spelling and grammatical errors" and promptly stopped spellcheck. Hyuck hyuck no shit....

[Mom]

Hyuck hyuck no shit....

Reminds me of a dear friend who left school unable to read or write. She taught herself to read and spelled everything phonetically. When she finally got a PC and found Word, she was unable to use spell check as it could never suggest anything to replace what she had typed

[Maakz]

[Mom]
