If you have any more questions after that, feel free to ask me directly on my user talk page.

I know you've been editing for awhile, but didn't think you had gotten a welcome yet, so...Welcome :) Joe I 20:52, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Autobio
_ _ Hopefully you're already aware that WP autobiographical articles are held to especially high standards. I confined myself to very routine chgs to yours, but there may be some of that "merciless editing" coming up, from others who undertake judging notability and relevance more fluently than i -- perhaps even from comedy fans. But i suppose you're used to hecklers. [grin]
_ _ Let me add to your welcome, to what i hope will be a broader role as a colleague here.

Hey, I didn't start the wiki, but I'm gonna finish it! At least with WP I can add myself to the heckler chorus!!! :P

Just a heads up that fair use logos cannot be used in userboxes. Someone will probably change it soon. Don't feel picked on; it's just the rules. In the meantime, you should figure out an alternative. --NThurston 20:17, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Krep. Alternative, alternative.... Hmmm.. It's an image of the school logo. What to do? Basilwhite 20:22, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- Take a look at the others listed on Wikipedia:Userboxes/Education/United States. Maybe it'll give you some ideas. --NThurston 21:16, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Ah so! Kluged a collegiate-looking M in U of M colors and uploaded it and released it to the public domain. Thanks! Basilwhite 03:44, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
