# Hi chaps
I spent today with a brutal hangover, which I have now cured with booze. Thanks for all the nice posts- and special thanks to wifey for the multiple purchases. Re the b3ta thing- I'm sure we'll work out a way to keep it alive. It's a funny one for me because rathergood will die too if this falls over. I may resort to pleas on rathergood maybe, see if that helps. I reckon, one way or another, we'll get it to work out. I also need a job, which is a bit of a downer. Sorry about being so down last night, but I had a pretty negative conversation with rob as you probably gathered. He's much more plugged in to the general running of b3ta than me, and I hadn't realised how bad the situation was. Oh well. Really all we need is server with loads and loads of disk space and bandwidth for free. I'm not sure how much b3ta transfers, but I'd assume we'd need several gigs a day of bandwidth to make it viable. How hard can that be? You guys all having a nice weekend?

# I know its obvious
and everyone hates it, but everyone seems to have (dare i say it) banner ads on their site... im sure some evil marketing scumbags can get something out of this niche demographic.
It doesn't rake in much money - but it would help a bit wouldnt it ?

# Banner Ad Revenue
won't sort it, and also of course would sully the whole thing. What we need is someone who's prepared to give us loads and loads of free bandwidth on their server. I think we could probsbly live with a "b3ta - sponsored by" kind of message in return, but that's what we need if we're going to make it work. I'm personally not that keen on tryng to make b3ta profitable in its own right. I'd rather try and plug what we do well, which is provide exposure.

# Ah hello!
Well, I got came up by the drunkards that came back here last night till 6.30 am. Slept this afternoon, and now I am the only one in my flat awake and not tired.

# Hiya Nacho
I'm around for the time being- was really not well today but booze is working. Listening to radio cartel, which is dead good (in my opinion- sure it's not for everyone). also, I'm excited by the prospect of my crabwear boxers. How are you?

# my god,
does no-one sleep on this board? i thought i was the only one.

perhaps b3ta should go ahead with the idea of having a stall at glastonbury. not sure what doing, though.

radio cartel is indeed dead good. crabwear boxers may be good too, but i don't know.

# Well, yeah
I went to the pub this afternoon for a bit, then came home and went to bed while everyone carried on drinking.
Woke up, starting drinking again. Vulga came round. He is currently asleep on my sofa, as is the boyf.
I've run out of vodka, and I'm not tired.
What else am a supposed to do but munt around on b3ta?
What a sad, geek existence I lead.

# OH! Crabby,
I've got this new toy and you'd love it.
Oy, less of that...
It's called Kooky the rocking and talking crocodile.
Have you seen them?
You say something to it and then it starts dancing and repeating what ever you said in a totally munted up, stuttering type of song.
Might sound a bit naff, but it's amused me no end tonight.
Hi, Spacefish. No sleep till Brooklyn.

# That sounds fantastic
i want one. woo. and spacey, yes, boxers with my crab on are obviously and undeniably the way forward.

# Just think of how many
men's groins your face is going to be next to simultaneously around the world.
Ha ha ha well.....rathergood thought!
I might buy my lodger a pair, then you can be inside his trousers on a regular basis!

# That's not the right way to look at it
would do my head in. My crab being used as a pulling tool al over the world- that's the way i think about it. far more appropriate.

# Yeah
but my version makes me laugh more at the thought of it.
I'm watching a mental film called "Fun" at the moment about 2 psycho teengage girls that murdered some old lady.
(Nacho, Sat 23 Feb 2002, 20:13, archived)
# Yup
and yes, what an appropriate title. It really is good fun killing old ladies you know

# I'm sure that girl
is off the Waltons or Little House on the Prairie orsomething similar.
Or should I just put my glasses on?

# The Waltons
were serial killers. No doubt there.

# HA HA HA
Vulga and my boyfriend are now cuddled up to each other on the sofa, both asleep.
Ah bless!
How sweet.
He came round for a vodka and pulled my boyfriend.

# That's really sweet.
You must have a warm glow inside

Brighton for you.

# I've heard that

(I helped save b3ta! crab_bloke), Sat 23 Feb 2002, 20:33, archived)
# Yeah,
I've heard the same about London as well.
(Nacho, Sat 23 Feb 2002, 20:39, archived)
# You know
what it's like here. I wouldn't have it any other way. You've got to live before you die.
