problem with your script

Looks like your AFD statistics script used in here doesn't like unicode. See here and here. Just feel like pointing it out. --Sbluen (talk) 02:04, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

thanks for the heads up, I fixed it, (had to tell it that what we where giving it was unicode ☺) β^_command 02:23, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm glad that worked. --Sbluen (talk) 06:50, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

What should I do now?

RE: [1]

It has been almost a month (12 February 2010) since I asked Tim1357 for the bot. Tim1357 has been kind enough to create User:DASHBot/Wikiprojects but has been busy with other projects.

What should I do now? I don't want to step on Tim's shoes...

poke him again most bot ops juggle 10 things at once, things often slip their minds. β^_command 02:51, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

for what purpose? β^_command 02:49, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

"There is no such thing as an American $2 bill"

Thanks for posting the $2 bill story! I've sent it around to friends and family, who quite enjoyed it. Last week I went to a restaurant with a few other people: one of them tried to pay with a half-dollar, and the cashier wouldn't take it; however, the manager was quite familiar with it and took it happily :-) Nyttend (talk) 23:37, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

If you have web based stories that I might use as more references for my UP just drop them by. (the stupidity must be more than one person). β^_command 00:51, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
