Cool

I’m enjoying her blog, its interesting hearing the ‘other side of the story’. If Ashley keeps being on this rise in web-popularity, I wonder how long it will be before her and Rich end up in SI in the athlete/spouse pictorial much like Chuck Finley and his Stiletto wearing ex…ok bad comparison. Ashley seems very nice and down to earth, and it is great reading such a frank and honest blog.

Too bad. I'm sure both are disappointed.

Ugh. That was intended as a response to 44FAN.

Perfect

This will give me enough time to catch up on the blog-reading.

If GA wasn't so Lazy, I'd have something clever here.

I cannot wait for the tear-filled

recollections of constant infidelity on road trips, late night coke binges with Lackey and Kendrick. The binge drinking events with italian side dishes hosted by Sosh himself.

All the roid induced beatings, oh there will be drugs. Like the time Figgins almost overdosed on some China he picked up at little Korea Town before the KC series in 06. Thank God Rich always has some extra adrenaline on hand.

And all those stories about the anxiety that comes along with coming up with places to bury all those dead hookers. So so many dead hookers……

Or it will be nice and normal or whatnot, but Im hoping for the former.

I brought sexy back, but they only gave me store credit....

I couldn't access it at all

OK. It was a kinda sorta dumb comment...

…in reference to your Rogers Hornsby signature. Instead of staring out the window, you could focus on gaining access? (thud)
Apologies for any offense.

by sothball on Apr 1, 2009 9:37 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

gotcha....not dumb now that you've explained it

it makes sense. No offense taken, figured as usual I missed something somewhere.

I’ve been exhausted, so the brain isn’t as quick.

Now back to the original complaint….anyone explain why I couldn’t access the session?

What browser were you using?

It works fine on the latest version of Firefox.

by Zu Long on Apr 2, 2009 11:28 AM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Firefox

I even disabled AdBlock. I got an email reminder and clicked on that. Got to a screen that said watch (or whatever the wording was) but nothing was clickable.

I’m thinking it’s a Windows thing. I have Linux/Ubuntu

Yeah, that seems probable.

Other possible problems— is Javascript turned on for you?

Also, a question: Can you click replay and see the chat now?

by Zu Long on Apr 2, 2009 12:54 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

javascript yes I have no problems with any other apps/sites

no, nothing in that box is clickable for me

Well, I'm out of ideas.

The person you should really talk to is WiHaloFan, since he’s the one actually using the software, but it seems like he’s not reading this topic anymore.

The next time I see him I’ll ask about the Linux thing.

While we're waiting though,

what does your screen show as far as the box goes? Is it just flat black, or does it have “HalosHeaven Live Chat” at the top?

~Till the Halo burns out...

by Zu Long on Apr 3, 2009 12:56 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

I spy a grayed out box with the HH logo, words and everything

I’ve emailed coveritlive and the info was forwarded to their tech team. I was told their system was checked out on Linux prior to release, so I’m in your camp…..out of ideas. Usually stuff like this is because of pop-ups or AdBlock….but no go.

Thanks for all your help anyway…it IS appreciated!

It's a beautiful day for baseball.
