J-Bolt News

[Karl J. Barnes]

Sadly, yes I did know someone who did just that, AND she was shockingly J-Bolt-ish.

I use to know a woman who made claims almost as incredible as J-Bolt. She would claim to be have many different companies. They were primarily software and publishing companies, (or divisions) that produced little or no product. She spent more time coming up with lame acronyms for her companies. Each one spelled out some sort of word. She claimed to be a counsellor, professor, ordained minister, etc. Her websites would have many sections, 99% never had any content, and whose links were continually broken. (Went to pages never produced.) She promised the world, and didn't deliver squat.

Her main thing was that she was a sci-fi / fantasy writer. She had lists of books and series of books, all but one of which were never written. (She sure came up with a lot of titles though!) Her 1 "novel" was a continuing work of around 10 or more years. Basically, the heroine was pitifully, thinly veilled on her fantasy self. The hero and love interest was always based on her current boyfriend / infatuation. The character's name was even derived from the guy's name. (ala J-Bolt's "DemonDawn"?!?!?!) When that guy would see through her charades and scams and move on, she would re-write the entire story to make him the villain. Then another re-write would come when she met her next guy. New guy became the hero, fighting and subduing character based on last guy. The happened OVER, AND, OVER, AND OVER AGAIN.

I wasn't one of these, per se. I did meet her on-line talking about publishing poetry. We began to communicate, where she quickly escalated it to wanting to date, although that wouldn't happen being that she was in PA, and I was in FL. She actually asked me to transfer to a college in PA early on, and I politely laughed it off. She always wanted me to come up, or to pay for her to come down so we could try dating, but I declined, not only due to all the alarms going off, but because I was in college and didn't have the money to be transporting myself or someone else across the country on a whim. Early on I realized she was off the deep end, and decided to try to be her friend. Honestly, over time, talking to her just helped confirm for me that no matter how bad life may seem in the short term, listening to her rantings proved that things could be a hell of alot worse.

We haven't spoken since an argument in 1997. That was a psychotic J-Bolt like rant for another story. I would check out her various websites from time to time for a good laugh. When searching to see if she had come up with any additional ones earlier this year, I found out she had passed away last year at the age of 42. It's too bad...I think J-Bolt would have been her perfect match.

This is sad on so many levels. Not saying you didn't do the right thing, but it is sad to see another human being spirial down into such quagmire of self deception and desparation. I sometimes root or want to root for these people to see the light and get control over their lives. Wingnut the end of your story really touched me. It is sad that she,possibly, died alone and unloved.

[Wingnut]

Could this be Demon Dawn?

Mac,

I think this is more along the lines of what Bolty would be trying to pick up - from an anime convention.

If you, or anyone else wants to see the last surviving website, (that I've found), of hers, you can go here:

http://www.geocities.com/imperatrice_miandra/

This is actually one of her most "sane" sites. Previous sites were even further out there, but I have the feeling they chased too many people off. (Such as dating requirements down to specifics of ancestral origins, and... let's just say "private measurements". All perameters had ratings of preferred, acceptable, and not acceptable.

Depending which now defunct site one might have seen, there are various religious things on each. She often advertised how she was into Wicca, and was a Druid/Bard teacher/prophetess or some such. Hey, believe what you want to believe, but she would change her religions back and forth nearly weekly. Every time she would try to hook another rich guy, she'd go and try to change her religion. Example: In the midst of one of her fundamentalist Christian phases, she started dating a Jewish man. After only a couple of dates, she was calling synagogues trying to see how fast she could convert, and preaching the evils of what the Christians had done to "her people". A short while later, after he had cut ties with her, (he was unwilling to basically pay for her to remain dating him), she flipped back to Wicca, all the while become hatefully anti-semetic.

Last I spoke to her, I think she really only had one other friend. He was a Wiccan companion of hers who had founded his own "church", and bestowed upon himself a Phd in Theology, (from his own invented school). He was gay, but although she endlessly spoke of helping him get through his problems of being a gay teen in a small conservative town, I really think she was always trying to bed him herself. I have traked down some information on him, and it mentions how, at one point, he turned the "church" over to her, but due to her "abuses of her position", she was stripped of it, and the church was closed. Sounded like she screwed him over, and he dumped her too.

I tried to be a friend, but she just got mad that I wouldn't participate in her get rich quick schemes, and such. She lashed out even more as I graduated college, and began to do things with my life.

I think I have become so attracked to "The J-Bolt Goodness", because if it hadn't been for the fact that I had found her obituary, I would almost wonder if J-Bolt was just another one of her schemes. It was all there. Phoney companies, product that doesn't exist, delusions of granduer, and a dislike of those that do, and don't just talk about it. It goes even deeper than that, but I'll leave my rantings as such for now.

I only hope that she's found some sort of peace now. Perhaps J-Bolt can find some for himself before it's too late, and he completely implodes.

The long-unanswered question remains....

Who is Lonny Ditirro?

Has anybody explored this aspect of J-Bolt Mania?

I thought about it and then decided Lonny Ditirro was either a 'basher' trying to actually get a copy of the alleged script, or a figment of Boltie's overactive imagination. Either way, I didn't see much need in pursuing it.

However, it is nice to see that J-Bolt has actually been working on HIS website for once.

He hasn't. He updated two links in the menu, but the links on those pages are still screwed up, as are the rest of the links on the menu.

[winter250]

In the event that anyone still cares, J-Bolt has put up a ton of "updates" on his news page:

http://www.lightningboltentertainment.com/News/news.html

Including, his unprecedented second inclusion in Marquis' Who's Who, the fact that he wants to put up a password protected bulletin board requiring each user's name, phone number, etc., further rants about Gail and McQuarrie trying to destroy him, and the sad news that Heather has resigned as webmaster.

[Jared_Humpherys]

Cool! I'm there!

[Jeff Brady]

The new color scheme hurts my eyes.

[Jared_Humpherys]

Wow. That was one crazy rant. I'm surprised he didn't mention the little jbolted.com scam, but then again, he's probably too embarassed to acknowledge it publicly.

However, I see this as the deathcry of someone doomed to obscurity. Good for a laugh, and little else.

J-BOLT INDUCTED INTO 2006 MARQUIS' WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA FOR 2ND YEAR IN A ROW

Oh that's too funny. Those Who's Who books are the biggest scam. They "invite" you to be in the book and then you have to pay for your copy. Except those payments are funding the entire scam. They just print the number of books that cover the people who actually bothered to pay for it and pocket the rest.

You pay like $50 to get your name in a book that no one else will ever see or care about.

So it's like mental masturbation in book form, that you have to PAY for?

Genius!

And what a great way to take money from the J-bolts of the world!

[Matt Algren]

God, I've missed ol' J.
If a tree falls in an empty forrest, does it actually make a sound? This is an age-old question that has baffled many who has kept this quandary for generations. If a squirrel or other woodland creature are woke up and given their angered attention at such a lone 'BOOM,' it does indeed make a sound and can cause great difficulties in that forrest's serenity and progress, especially if allowed to continue, when that fallen tree lands on items to be developed.

Unprofessional people such as Gail Simone and James MacQuarrie (who both havce association with other comic publishing compnies along with their accomplices of similar backgrounds and associations) have spent a great deal of time, effort, and money in libelously knocking down trees in the LBE forrest. Though the damage they have caused has been minor, in comparison, nonetheless, they have committed both legal and civil crimes including plagiarism, public personality stalking, harassment as well as a laundry list of other broken laws., which are being dealt with in varied Courts of Law.
Since Lightning Bolt Entertainment has received kudos that they could never dream of, including comicon dedicating an entire webpage to our "The Storm" poster in 1999 (which was the first attention that the Bashers gave us, not liking the compliments that comicon gave us), we guess they're green with envy and decided to try and hurt us, expecting us to run away with our tails between our legs to make them feel better about themselves. In MacQuarrie's own words: "I have no fan clubs," hence he does not appreciate people who do, nor anything else that shows appreciation for anyone else, since he does not work for anything except contempt, apparently and states that he he has to use "pro-bono" attorneys to waste taxpayers money in his onslaught against us... for what? Since we didn't just go away, they decided to make us their primary hobby in trying to harm us, to a criminal extent (which also includes copyright infringement by reproducing pictures, artwork and text that is copyrighted from our company and website, amongst other much harsher charges mentioned before).

We would prefer to just pity them, but they've become dangerous as would a brain-damaged postal worker with an arsenal of unloaded guns who knows the direction of the ammunition shop. Please just remember that we've ALWAYS delivered on what we've promised and when we haven't been able to meet a deadline, we've always let our customers, fans and friends know first.
(re: new membership protocols) ...On the other hand, if anyone is involved with any of the Bash Forums, they will automatically be disqualified from being a Member of this forum, no exceptions (except for one person that we do trust). Another disqualification is if a person does not fill in all the information requested and/or any of the information is false. Doing this will bring back our BB and make this place fun again for everyone that wants to join in and not here to bash it. Since Heather Andes has resigned as webmaster, all entrants will be qualified through a staff of about 10 people to make sure that the rules are upheld and done so strictly and quickly (usually within 24 hours).

If you're interested in this endeavor, e-mail us with your information and let us know so that we can start your process and see if you qualify to be a part of this elite BB Membership.

...The hell? That a bulletin board or a country club?

[SUPERECWFAN1]

Odds are....no one will join that message board. Who wants to put down all thier personal Information about thier lives to just post on a freakin message board ? Wow....this continues to be a funny story.

[winter250]

That paragraph about the old "Tree in the forest" parable is a New J-Bolt Classic. I know I brought this up, but I wonder if it's really in anyone's interest to continue devoting time to this idiot.

That said, I still subconsciously continue to wonder how I might get access to his new message board, so I guess that sort of answers my own question.

Who is the one person over here that he trusts? After the J-Bolted situation, I'm pretty sure many bridges have been burnt. I suspect that Loren is the lone standout, but as I recall, he didn't post under that name at J-bolt's forum. Maybe it is the 4th Pip, as he was pretty positive over at j-bolted.

It's funny, but his constant use of the plural almost got me doing it too. I was about to say who do they trust, as if there were more than one of him.

That is just staggeringly stupid. Pro-bono attorneys don't "waste" anyone's money. They take the case for free. The taxpayers have nothing to do with it. He's thinking of public defenders.

I wish I worked for contempt. I just work for money. :(

Worst. Metaphor. Ever.

Unprofessional people such as Gail Simone and James MacQuarrie (who both havce association with other comic publishing compnies along with their accomplices of similar backgrounds and associations) have spent a great deal of time, effort, and money in libelously knocking down trees in the LBE forrest. Though the damage they have caused has been minor, in comparison, nonetheless, they have committed both legal and civil crimes including plagiarism, public personality stalking, harassment as well as a laundry list of other broken laws., which are being dealt with in varied Courts of Law.

One point at a time: Gail's professionality speaks for itself. As For MacQuarrie, well, he makes a living at something (freelance, I forget what, something visual). As for conduct, I leave that to others to judge, but I've seen few if any egregious examples.

Plagiarism is presenting someone else's work as your own. Neither Gail nor Jim has ever done this at all, to my knowledge, and certainly not in regards to Mr. Fisher's... ouput. Posting on open message forums, visiting and commenting upon public websites, and background checking IMDB casting assertions are not stalking. Furthermore, if these crimes are being dealt with, I would assume that Gail and Jim or their attorneys have been notified that charges have been filed against them. Is this the case?

Since Lightning Bolt Entertainment has received kudos that they could never dream of, including comicon dedicating an entire webpage to our "The Storm" poster in 1999 (which was the first attention that the Bashers gave us, not liking the compliments that comicon gave us), we guess they're green with envy and decided to try and hurt us, expecting us to run away with our tails between our legs to make them feel better about themselves.

Poor guess. Incidentally, anyone remember the comicon.com thing? Sounds like a posting of a press release. As for envy, given that Gail and Jim have actually published work, I fail to see how that's a factor.

In MacQuarrie's own words: "I have no fan clubs," hence he does not appreciate people who do, nor anything else that shows appreciation for anyone else, since he does not work for anything except contempt, apparently and states that he he has to use "pro-bono" attorneys to waste taxpayers money in his onslaught against us... for what? Since we didn't just go away, they decided to make us their primary hobby in trying to harm us, to a criminal extent (which also includes copyright infringement by reproducing pictures, artwork and text that is copyrighted from our company and website, amongst other much harsher charges mentioned before).

Well, right away that first sentence is rubbish. No doubt mangled context aside, there's no logic involved whatsoever. Furthermore, I think Jim's original Muppets fandom, to pick a recent excuse, would constitute an appreciation for the work of Jim Henson, a man who certainly has fan clubs. The confusion between a pro bono attorney and a public defender has been covered. I will leave the "attempt to harm" up to Gail and Jim to qualify, although I seriously doubt that it's become a primary hobby for either of them. The copyright issue, I leave to those with better understanding of such issues as they relate to the Internet.

Ah-hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! I can count the number of times LBC has delivered on a promise on Count Dooku's hands.

[kcarroll]

Please remember, if you say something often enough, it will become true. So if Jbolt continually says that he has kept every promise, even if another comic is never published, it will be true.

I like that whenever anyone points out that he has not kept a promise he provides an excuse. For instance, when it was pointed out that he promised video games and never delivered, he basically said, it was too hard, so he wasn't going to do it. It's like an episode of seinfeld.

[sk716]

...even if another comic is never published, ...



Another, I don't remember a first being published.

[sk716]

One more thing I want added to the public record...

If J-Bolt continues with his claims that Gail and Mac are unfairly attacking him, blah, blah, blah, blah (fill in random Jim Fisher accusation), I WILL reopen J-Bolt Mania to the general public. I know Fisher doesn't want that.

[Jeff Brady]

Oh, do that anyway.

Please?

[winter250]

My eyes! J-Bolt's headlines are flashing on and off now, in case you didn't notice the big bold red letters and the thunder sound effect!

Or at least they do on Firefox, if not IE...

[MacQuarrie]

I really love it when Fisher tries to sound intelligent and authoritative, because he just makes himself sound like even more of an idiot.

If I'm facing some legal issues, I haven't been informed of it. He has my attorney's contact information, he has my home and cell phone numbers and address, I'm in the book, my contact information is freely available to anyone who wants it through multiple channels including the whois info for Monkey Spit... I'm not hard to find. I haven't been served with any lawsuits.

For the record once again: Jim Fisher is an idiot and does not have the slightest idea what he's talking about.

* A second year of listing in WHO'S WHO is not unprecedented; it's quite common. The overwhelming majority of listings are repeats from prior years.

* I never once used an ISP sample disc to alter or conceal my IP address. It never happened.

* I did post from multiple locations. That was more a function of convenience than anything else. I posted from wherever I happened to be. It just so happened that for about a year I had regular access to about 4 different internet connections at various places I was working when I was freelancing. (Currently I'm on staff as a graphic designer for a manufacturer of digital music equipment.)

* Anything from LBC that I quoted or reposted anywhere was completely within the boundaries of the US and International Copyright laws, under the exclusion allowed for educational, journalistic, parodic, or review purposes.

* J-Bolt makes me giggle. He says that all current information regarding casting of "Bombshell" is now "top secret" and then posts it in the In Development page. He slays me.

[TCJohnson]

Heather Andes quit? Say it ain't so! Say it ain't so!


You know, Mac, you and Gail probably have good groups to sue him for slander or libel, forget which is which.

[MacQuarrie]

As much fun as it would be to see him cavort before a judge, I prefer to leave that eventuality up to him. His cartoonish insults do me no harm and make him look like an idiot. The truth is its own defense.

He keeps saying I'm in big legal trouble, and I keep waiting for it to happen. IF he ever does take any action, I fully intend to submit the case to Judge Judy or People's Court or whatever ridiculous legal show is interested.

Fellow Bashers!

I require your assistance. I'm adding something new to JBoltmania, but I need some help. I need a list of all the things J-Bolt has claimed be/create/involved in/etc. All the stuff like his claim that he built a cooling system being used by NASA. All of it. Since we are all in need of some J-Bolt craziness, I thought getting you guys involved in this would help.

That, and my head nearly exploded after trying to read a full page of his ramblings.

[Wingnut]

Maybe I'm just not privy to the inside info, or somehow missed it. I did my usual perusal of this board and j-boltmania this morning, and found that both jboltmania.jbolted.com and the regular www.jbolted.com, according to my browser no longer existed. Now, later today, I see that it is a new website that is under construction.

SK, have you decided to scrap J-Boltmania, and do something else with the site, or just revamp it? I had seen that the original front page of www.jbolted.com, (pre-unveiling of the joke), is now on jbolted.freefronthost.com (http://jbolted.freefronthost.com) . It looks as though someone copied the old front page onto a new free host since the top of the page seems to cover ads and links for the free domain.

The links, (well some of them), lead back to their original J-bolted pages, (works, etc.), but with the original site now being restructured, the links now don't go anywhere. I wasn't sure if that was being moved to a free site, or if someone, had copied the original page, and put it under a similar name to make it look like J-bolt "still" had a fan site.

Just wanted to know what was going on with the whole shebang. The coloring book pictures are a riot. Thanks for digging them up. I wonder if he's still bugging Samantha Fox, or maybe he's decided Anna Nicole is more "perfect" to play Bombshill!

That Demon guy, Draco or whatever, is quite well done, actually. Whatever else you want to say, Steve Carr seems to be extremely talented. I can't figure out what happened to him, though. No one seems to know what he's doing, and he seems to have dropped out of comics entirely.

A shame, cause I like everything of his I've seen.

Gail

Doesn't he do art for role playing game books?

[kcarroll]

I just noticed the "B" on Bombshell's gigantic armbands. I think it is the exact same "B" used in the "Barbie" logo.

I still think j-bolt's art looks a lot like Pat Broderick. I don't think Mr. Broderick ever endowed his characters with such ominous beauty that they would need a back brace, but I see similarities in technique.

[TCJohnson]

You know that is really clever. With those weights she can fight crime and exercise those arms at the same time.

[Crowley]

What is Bombshell's power again?
Boobs, knockers, Breastesstesseses.

[Guapo Méndez]

We got it wrong, folks.

She's not Bombshell.

She's BombShell.

So her armbands should be one for the "B" in "Bomb" and one for the "S" in "Shell".

Thus reading "B"- "S".

[SUPERECWFAN1]

I like that rendition of Draco. It doesn't look as goofy and silly as J-Bolts In that WLS. The Draco In that picture looks dark & mysterious. Like the charactor I'd have. Of course I'd drop the whole demon look and go with demon sharing a mortals body with the charactor looking more human.

Maybe I'm just not privy to the inside info, or somehow missed it. I did my usual perusal of this board and j-boltmania this morning, and found that both jboltmania.jbolted.com and the regular www.jbolted.com, according to my browser no longer existed. Now, later today, I see that it is a new website that is under construction.

SK, have you decided to scrap J-Boltmania, and do something else with the site, or just revamp it?

There have been some server problems. The J-Bolted/J-Bolt Mania sites are restored and working again. Other sites I am hosting are down at the moment while everything is moved to a new server.

And I forgot all about the frontfreehost pages, that was the original home for J-Bolted before I bought the domain. I really do need to go delete the old pages.

Sorry to hear that you have been having server problems, but I'm glad it wasn't due to more nefarious reasons. I thought perhaps the freefronthost domain was a precursor to the main site, but was worried that perhaps Bolty had set up a duplicate site linking back to pages that still existed. I'm just glad the repository of J-Bolt Goodness lives on!

perhaps you should get one of those newfangled mainframes I have been hearing about. Comic book genius/actor/producer/inventor J-bolt has one, and if it's good enough for his family of companies, it might work for you.

I think the key words here are, "among comic creators". The Jim "J-Bolt" Fisher vs. Gail Simone feud would be one of a B.S. Artist / Scammer vs. Comic Creator.

Now if it was noting feuds between delusional, developmentally stunted, linguistacally challenged, bovine fecal matter artistes (extraordinaire!), grifters vs. comic creators, industry personnel, fans, and random bystanders, (that's me!), then this would be the textbook example.

As far as "keeping the bolt down", to paraphrase the zoo sign..."Please don't feed the psychos!" He might feel the need to change his name to "J-Bolt X" and add a bow-tie to his signature blade (dork) sunglasses and (even more sad) mullett! :eek:

That would be hilarious. I wish I knew somebody at the University.

Thanks for posting that. I actually knew about MacQuarie University (and MacQuarie Island), but it's cool to have somebody else point it out.
The school is named after Lachlan MacQuarie (http://www.lib.mq.edu.au/lmr/biography.html), the greatly-loved Governor of New South Wales who was instrumental in changing Australia from a penal colony to a free nation. Just about every MacQuarrie, McQuarrie, McQuarry and MacGuire in the world claims to be in some way related to him. He's the one that done good.

As for the spelling, that's easy to explain; up until the present day, the names were spelled however the census-taker decided to write them down, as he was usually the only guy around who could read. In the Canadian records, my ancestors' name changes with each generation up until my great-grandfather. Sometimes it's Mc, sometimes Mac, occasionally two r's, sometimes a y at the end.

[sk716]

I've been sitting on this one for awhile now, I just put it up over at J-Bolt Mania yesterday.
When I first put up J-Bolt Mania I got this little gem from Wingnut, you'll have to get the full origin story from him...

Raife wrote:
So a big part of Marvel's claim was that it was possible to duplicate their copyrighted material which they tried to prove by making their own characters that did this?

They were pissed that CoH's character development process was too flexible?

Man, I used to actually like Marvel.

Welcome...to the real world.

I have a favorite Marvel Is Evil story, mostly because it's goddamned absurd. Back in high school, circa 1989, I audited a summer class at Community College of Southern Nevada (then Clark County Community College), "Comic Book Creating' or somesuch moniker, it had. The "professor," Jason Something, was such an obvious fucking loon I don't know how he conned his way into getting paid to teach what had to be the most useless fucking college class ever. But, his competence wasn't the problem.

The first day, he says to the class, he says:

"Good morning! You students are some of the only people to ever know my real name or see ny face! You see, I usually go by "J-Bolt" to hide my identity and I always wear a mask in public appearances."

And what are we all thinking at this point? This fruit thinks he's a goddamned superhero. Oh, I wish. He continues:

"The reason is, is Marvel wants the copyrights to many of my original comic characters, but most especially my character Bolt. The name is mine! Copyrighted, trademarked, secured and legally mine in every conceivable way! But Marvel thinks they can steal from me. They can't!" (Note: I'm not sure what all IP rights he quoted as having)

Then, his tone turns darkly conspiratorial.

"But Marvel will stop at nothing to get the name and character from me. Nothing! I met with Stan Lee about this. Do you know what he said?"

Are you ready for this, everyone?

"Stan Lee said he was going to kill me for it."

Man, that was just Day One, Hour One. Actually, it was pretty goddamned boring after that. I learned nothing. The best parts after that were few and varied. Like, when he went around the room and asked us who our favorite comic book character was (I think he avoided the term Super Hero because a couple girls were in the class). Well, this was right during the Robotech boom and the birth of anime culture in America. So, half the answers were "Rick Hunter!" I said Spider Man. J-Bolt blanched noticeably for every Rick Hunter response. We used to rap with him after class; he was actually a pretty affable guy, as long as you didn't fucking bring up Marvel. He wasn't a fan of anime, as you could guess. "Ditko, you hear me? Ditko!"

Anyway, he's nuts and his comics sucked. He said that he had a habit of hiring talent right from his classes, you know and I believed him, since he had little of his own. The only blurb I can recover of this nutbag essentially laughs at him for being a charlatan. He did have some online comics, as linked, but that site's long since dead. I visited it back around 3 or 4 years ago, and it was up. The stuff on it was horrible, stuff Image would have turned down even during its formative years. Anyway, he's lost to the ether now, I guess Stan Lee finished him off.

[TCJohnson]

I've been sitting on this one for awhile now, I just put it up over at J-Bolt Mania yesterday.
When I first put up J-Bolt Mania I got this little gem from Wingnut, you'll have to get the full origin story from him...

I can't quite recall where I found this. It was obviously from some message baord, but I have no idea which one. It was from sometime earlier this year when I first discovered J-Bolt on IMDB, and I Googled to find more.

As I think I've mentioned before, I sort of stumbled onto J-Bolt via IMDB. Occasionally, when I'm very bored, I'll go onto IMDB and click from film to film, actor to actor, reminiscing, or in this case, sort of seeing, "where are they now?" I think I was checking on what Pat Morita was currently up to, and it led me to Bombshell.

As I became addicted to the J-Bolt Psychosis Society, I began to Google for more info. From whatever board this came from, it stood out to me as some part of J-Bolt history, so I copied the text and saved it.

I just tried to find it again, and can't seem to find what site it came from. I did find a couple of other interesting things today. There is a listing for "Bombshell" (2005) on IMDB. It's some sort of British TV show, and guessing from the character names, it's about British bomber pilots / crews. I don't recall that entry being there before, (It could have, and I just missed it), but I bet if J-Bolt finds it, he'll start to fume that someone stole the name, and THEY helped bump his entry off of IMDB.

The second thing, I think I've seen before, but I can't remember if it had been mented here or elsewhere, but it looks like Bolty may have placed a bit of an ad. http://www.findall.com/cgibin/service?status/2511/579
There are no working links to his site, but you supposedly can send a message to him via the site. He only wants the best, but then takes out a very lame web ad?!?! He's hoping he can find someone gullible enough to associate with him, I guess.

Lastly, after looking up Bolty on Yahoo today, I found several "work from home" B.S. sites that use a conglomeration of search terms to bring up their sites. Some show "J-Bolt" and "Comics" as seperate terms, but several seem to show "J-Bolt" linked together with bombshell and such. They all go to the same b.s. site. I think one link even said it was to Lightening Bolt Comics and their family of companies. I almost wondered if maybe he has joined on for a work at home scam himself. I don't know.

Well, now we at least know to check with Stan Lee if (when) J-Bolt disappears again. He may have dumped Bolty in the dirt to steal the movie name to sell to the producers of the British TV show.

Keep on Boltin'!

Wingnut!

Actually, Martin, I've been having a blast reading these. I'm sorry I never knew about this forum before. It's a kick! LOL
How can you be in comics and on the Internet and not know that Warren Ellis had a forum?

I hope that you and everyone else will take up my offer for the chat. I'm anxious to answer everyone's questions. So far, with all these questions, it seem's like it'll be a LOOOOOOONG chat that will do alot of good.
I'm so excited, my sunglasses are fogging up. ROFLMAO
I'm going to call shenanigans right off the bat. Excessive use of LOL makes me think it's someone pretending to be J-Bolt. As excessive LOLing is an easy way to establish that someone is a dumbass.

As far as everyone's question of banning...
If someone publicly posts an insulting comment, on the LBC board, the webmaster takes them off...period. Everyone knows if they're posting something derogatory. They know they did...and it was kicked out. That's all that's to it.
J-Bolt needs to create a new character called the Grammartian. It'll be an alien who came to Earth and learned English. Because he took such great care to learn English, he is now angered when someone butchers it. He can follow J-Bolt around the Internet, fixing his sentences for clarity and meaning.

I even had the message posted that, if you have something ugly to say, say it to us...not the rest of the site. To post it up, instead of talking to us (or me) is a no-class act. If an e-mail would've been sent instead of the insults, I would have personally gone over your problems and gotten it corrected. Then, there would be no use of banning...would there?
Simply put...if someone comes into your business and yells out "YOU SUCK" where all of your customers can hear it, instead of coming only to you and saying "I've got a problem or a question that's really bugging me. Can I talk with you about it", you'd kick their rude butt out of your business...wouldn't you? I'm sure you would.
If I were J-Bolt, I'd look around my empty place of business and ask, "Who are you yelling at? We're the only one's here." Then I'd cry.

LBC doesn't shut anyone out, if they come to us. But, we will kick anyone out who comes off like a beligerant oaf. I even said, after the booting, for those who've been booted to send me an e-mail and I'll resolve the situation personally. It's not my fault that they didn't take me up on it.
GRAMMARTIAN: Belligerent! Belligerent!

Hell, how can anyone be taken seriously, with their gripes, if they can't even find it in themselves to leave an e-mail address for us to write to and help get it straightened out??? Really, folks...can you seriously blame me for leaving the standing order that all such "negativitys" be booted? Ask yourselves what you would do.
GRAMMARTIAN: Negativities! Negativities! Wait, that barely makes sense one way or the other!

I want all these things addresses in that chat, people. If I could buy you a drink over the net, I would (I'm sure they'll develop a virtual bar some day), but I'd still like to sit with everyone and chat this out. Let's get to the bottom of all this like the comic-reading grown-ups we are and stop the tattling, name-calling, etc. like kids, huh?

Where has my Johnny-Bolt gone ? Where has he gone..... :(

[Wingnut]

Sorry, no update, and no particular thing to say. I just can't stand to see the J-Bolt goodness fall into oblivion.

So, Mac, Gail, have Bolty's legal minions been beating down your doors with lawsuits? He promised us they would be. HE FREAKIN' PROMISED US!!!! If need be, I'd probably be willing to ride the rails, hobo style, and hitch to get to a courtroom to witness that! Actually, time and money permitting, it would be a sweet road trip in the mini-van, and I could tailgate in front of the courthouse in the way the fans of Whako Jacko did. "Free Mac - Quarrie.... Free Mac - Quarrie!"

Anyway, I have to wonder if Bolty is making progress in therapy, or if his boss at Mickey D's isn't giving him enough time off to "work on the production of his movie." Maybe he's trying to befriend other online people to get suggestions how to write the code for his website, (ala what he did with those on J-Bolted). Even though he says he has a HUGE staff working in, not only his company, but his IT department.

Now, I had a pretty good handle on the basics of some programming on early computers. Being that it is not my field, I know I am sorrowfully lacking in HTML skills, and other knowledge used in making webpages. However, if I had a webpage set up, with all of the misspellings, and broken links, I think I could figure out for myself, within a day, how to fix them. If not, I would guarandamntee you that within a week or so, I would either figure it out, study what I needed to do, or found someone who could do it. Being that his crappy website is his primary face forward to the public, even the "production of his movie", would somewhat have to wait until he got his, "mentally chall........aw screw the PC...), FREAKIN' RETARDED, website up to snuff.

Yes, I know I'm preaching to the choir, but I had to get that out. Plus, get this ultimately worthy thread back to where it belongs.

IMO....

See this link... Bad Ronald (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071186/)

Jim Fisher was an odd kid. He fancied himself as a comicbook writer/hero. He ran around the neighborhood in his "mask", living out his dream. (delusion) He was taken in by a friendly, old man, who owned a comic book store. The old man was bitter from all the derision he took for his, "flat earth" stance and wanted to make sure that no one else no one else suffered the slings and arrows of the populace for boldly going out and making a complete and utter jackass of themselves. Although this man thought he was protecting Jim, he was actually feeding his delusion.

One day, as Jim was demanding that a small child call him by his Superhero/publisher/movie mogul name, J-Bolt, and that the child acknowledge his standing in high reguard in the movie and comic industry, (not to mention, "Who's Who"), he accidently whipped his mullet around and cracked the child's skull. The child fell, seemingly dead.

Due to Jim's psychotic reputation, both the old man and Jim knew that no one would believe this was an accident. So, the old man told Jim, (now REALLY called J-Bolt...to throw off the cops), to hide in the shop's U-Store-It warehouse until things blew over.

J-Bolt retreated to a 24x10 U-Store-It box. It was equiped with a sink, (doubles as a toilet), a small fridge, a souped up PC, (w/ an 8088 processor), and lots and lots of costumes. The old man would bring Bolty food, and paper, and pens, and books, and mags of 1920's gay porn, and told him he'd be o.k. until things blew over.

After a little while, the old man stopped visiting. Why? Because the old man had died from a short circuit in his Swedish, ehem "enlarger pump". (It was his bag, baby!) Bolty hid behind boxes as the repo men cleared out most of the warehouse. For some reason, they left the old computer, and a few boxes of "superhero costumes", made from t-shirt material. (Also makes great cooling space suits!)

For some reason, (maybe due to the fact that the "pump" makers paid a few of the old man's bills as a gesture to keep from having any theretofor unknown litigants sue them), the warehouse was still kept "active" with power, running water, and a phone line. (It seems as though selling off many of the extra costumes paid the other outstanding debts.)

So, Bolty lived there, dreaming his dreams, stealing food from the hotdog vendor's warehouse next door, and typing, (and hyping), his fantasy life on his dilapidated computer, and sending it out over the fortuitous dial-up pathway, to a waiting world.

Several years later, someone opened a wayward comic shop of sorts on the other side, (oppiste from the hotdog vendor), U-Store-It room. He could hear stories of may great and wonderful things happening in the worlds of comics and film. At first, he couldn't hear these people mention anything about him, his dastardly deed, or his creations.) It turns out that the kid Bolty thought he had killed had actually gone into a seizure, just before the kid was hit by the whipping mullet. Paramedics had been summoned, and the kid awoke, alive as live could be, without any recollection of his run-in with Bolty. Also, not only had anyone heard of this deed, but never heard of anything else this psychotic loser had done. This angered the Bolty.

After fixating for ages on a Flash costume, and some old pictures of Dolly Parton, he came up with the idea that he would create two comic book characters that would make him known, and bring meaning to his life. They were Bolt and BombShell.

He typed and typed and typed his delusional butt all over the internet. By this time, he believed all of this delusions, and to a depth that few could imagine. He believed he commanded lawyers, movie moguls, and regular people. No matter how much those on this "net" thing laughed at him, (and those comicbook and hotdog people on either side of his little alcove laughed as well), it did not break his reality, (delusions).

As his former mentor and protector told him... If you make it up inside your whacked out psyche, some wingnut will come, but many more will laugh themselves into a pissing hysteria.

And so it goes... :eek:

Wingnut

[Wingnut]

I was just flipping through the channels, and wandered by VH-1. The show was, "The Fabulous Life of...". I don't know exactly what the theme of the show, but it may have had something to do with body parts. Anyway, what caused me to stop was a Samantha Fox video. People were commenting something along the lines that her only real talent was her chest, and most people, even while watching her videos didn't realize that she was a "singer".

Well, instead of being taken back to the days of my youth, watching her cheesy videos, and trying to find pictures of her naked beyonkers, all I could think about was, BombShell. BombShell? BombShell?!?!? ARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

Damn you, J-Bolt! Damn you straight to the bowels of hell!!! :D

[Magneto_X]

I kinda imagine that a company went out of business years ago and left this massive warehouse with a kitchen, a massive costume wardrobe and one lone computer running... the company has forgotten about this warhouse and locked an intern in years ago.

locked inside this warehouse is Jim Fisher running his empire as his only means to keep sane.

Personally, I suspect J-Bolt never had a company to begin with. I doubt he'd actually go through the paperwork to get all of his company(ies) on the government radar.

Especially since he says his, "company" started back in high school, it reminds me of what we'd do as little kids. We'd open up a Kool-Aid stand, and have "owners", "managers", and "employees". We'd then sell "stock" in the company, (You'd pay a buck or two, so we could buy more Kool-Aid, and you'd get a discount on drinks, and get a little cut of the profits.).

We pretended we were a real big business! However, we actually grew up, and left those childish thoughts behind us. I think Bolty is still playing make-believe, but can't tell the difference.

Oh yeah, you're onto something there.

Although he's taking it to extremes. Even as a kid I made sure my dreams weren't *to* unrealistic. Well, most of them. LOL

[sk716]

Actually, time and money permitting, it would be a sweet road trip in the mini-van, and I could tailgate in front of the courthouse in the way the fans of Whako Jacko did. "Free Mac - Quarrie.... Free Mac - Quarrie!" ....

Wingnut!

I will so be there tailgating with you!

Hey, after seeing Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid when I was ten years old, I wanted to be a professional train robber.

[SUPERECWFAN1]

As a kid after watching the Incredible Hulk I wanted to travel the US and turn Into a green monster. Course I was 6 at the time.


J-Bolt however Is In his mid to late 30's and still has those " huge dreams" of Hollywood stardom. I feel for the guy because he wants It so bad and just doesn't wanna do the work to get there.

I remember asking him how he expected to lure a fan base without any solid books published and he just never got It. If he did the work maybe he could have made It. Ya never know. The stories may have sucked 10 ways to hell , but he could have at least got some work Into shops. I may have even bought an Issue!

Yup. He should never never under-estimate the value of pity. :)

Hell, I'm interested in seeing what type of trash he can do. if Liefeld can do it, he should too!

[MacQuarrie]

I think there definitely is a movie in this story.

I really want to see it. Can't wait to see who plays me.

You? Ben Browder. Definitely.

I haven't seen your picture so no Idea. But I'd PAY ..thats right , Pay someone so I could play J-Bolt on the big screen. Hell I'd play him so over the top you'd think I was Jim Carrey on speed.

" Macccccquarriiieee , you,Siiimoonnee & those paaathetic bashers who can't get laid are losers! LBC will REIGN SUPREME!! I will BURRRYYYYYY DC & Marvel. Then make Joe Quesada be my Intern! Least he'll have a job where you 2 , won't !" ( Cue Manical Laughter) " Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha"

I just thought of adding the " Stuck In the Middle With You " scene from Reservoir Dogs with Mac as the hostage, but that'd give J-Bolt a little too much pleasure.

J-Bolt In a " Pulp Fiction" type role ala Travolta/Jackson with his "Heather Andes" double would be kick ass.


" And on the 5TH Day , Gail Simone , God made Bombshell ! For he knew that It was rightous and that you all would be jealous ! Praise LBC and God. For making me the biggest Creator In comics! "

[Matt Algren]

Gail, I loved Villains United #4. Best part was the line "Scandal, get to the mainframe!" I laughed out loud at that one.



God, I miss J-Bolt.

[kcarroll]

I was so excited to see this back on the first page. Imagine my disappointment that it was merely a "bump".

Are any of the creators on this board tempted to create a Jbolt-esque character? Wouldn't it be great if Mockingbird turned out to be jbolt?

[Crowley]

J-bolt will now likely claims he created Mockingbird and Gail stole her from him!

[Wingnut]

Sorry, all. No particular J-Bolt goodness. Just having my own personal hurricane party in SE Florida, and I figured I'd stop in and say hello.

Katrina, "that dirty pirate hooker", was darned near coming for me like I had a bullseye on my back. (Or wearing some goofy "mask" w/ a mullet!) Then, she hung a sharp left, and went through Broward and Miami-Dade. The people in Miami-Dade really weren't prepared since they thought this would be a weaker event, mainly dealing with Palm Beach and Broward.

She was definitely weaker than her counterparts of last year, but she's packing a bit more of a punch than expected. Plus, it looks like she's dipping out on the shorter route through SW FL, and will become, a hurricane again, (stayed a hurricane ALOT longer than anyone expected), quicker, before heading to the Northern Gulf Coast. (Most likely the pan-handle of Florida...they need it about as much as we needed it.) As long as Tallahassee is clear by the following weekend so I can go up and see my 'Noles play scUM (University of Miami). Although, it looks like there may be company lagging behind Katrina.

Oh well, never lost power tonight, and only lost cable and internet for 40 minutes, so I can't complain too much. Around this time last year, I didn't have ANY water for 4 days, and was under boil water for 6 more days. All the while, I didn't have electricity for 17 days. I'll count my blessings as they come.

I hope all you other J-Bolters are safe, sound, and happy. I have to admit, I miss the little, delusional, freak.

Be excellent to eachother, and
PARTY ON DUDES!

[MacQuarrie]

Every time this thread resurfaces I get a little wistful.

J-Bolt never phones me anymore. He never posts anything about my evil nature or devotion to his destriction.

I miss him so much.

[Kyuubi]

Something wicked stirs in the land of Jboltmania.



That's all I'm saying for now. :evilsmile

Common, man! Tell us! Or, at least a hint! Maybe time and place to look?!?!? I need a J-Bolt Goodness fix. I'm jonesin' over here!

O.K., O.K., you have your reasons. I get that. I'll deal. But when you can... common, hook a brotha up! :D

I do find it funny, that after IMDB had yanked the, "Bombshell", entry, I still posted on the message board for his personal entry, and he never tore into me. I think, at the time, he was still being sucked into the J-bolted thing. After that came tumbling down in his face, I guess he is just too gun-shy to face reality and face someone on his own IMDB message board.

Oh yeah, we did well with Hurricane Katrina, but it took a nasty turn south, and screwed up Ft. Lauderdale, and even moreso Miami-Dade. It's going to be even worse, eventually, for others on the Northern Gulf Coast.

Best to all, and I miss the regular banter regarding our favorite idiot boy!

[Wingnut]

SUPERECWFAN1,

I'm the type of person that scans over things quickly, and at times, misreads what is on the page. Once I do that, unless I look at it very closely, I stay with what I originally thought it said.

This is not an insult, flame, or anything like that. For these past few months, that I have interjected myself in the, "Cult of J-Bolt Goodness", I had thought, until tonight, that your handle was SUPER SCREW FAN1! (w/o the spaces.) I just happened to look at it closer tonight, and realized what an idiot I was. (Nearly on a Jim Fisher level!)

Again, it's definitely nothing against you, but I thought you might get a chuckle out of my idiocy. :D

No...no one can be like Fisher who demands I get booted from a site I never joined and then protests that I've lied to him about where I came from and all.


Now being called " Super Screw Fan1 seems like a compliment. I am gonna screw ya over! Thats right....thats my nick ! Ya see Fisher thats why I did it because I'm Super Screw Fan1 ! And I screw over everyone ha ha ha."


I seriously got my nick from combining 2 of my favorite loves. Wrestling and Comics. If you read here I usually pull an anology that Marvel vs DC is almost like the Wrestling Wars between WWF/E and WCW.

Heres an explanation on the SUPERECWFAN1 Handle:

ECWFAN: I went by this on several boards and chat rooms when I 1st went online. I used it from 1999-2001 on Wrestleline.com and finally once that site went down I felt I may retire it.

ECW Is based on a small company that ran from 1993-2001 named Extreme Championship Wrestling and since I was a huge fan..I picked ECWFAN.

I went to IGN Boards and posted there as ECWFAN. Once they went to a pay site I left and found CBR In 2002. I started callin myself Super-ECWFAN because it sounded...more comic bookly. I added a 1# at the end because I doubted there were many huge ECW Fan's here so..to appease my small ego I named myself the 1# fan. So I called...myself SUPERECWFAN1.....Hope this helps. ;)


And its cool. I know you didn't mean anything by it.

[Wingnut]

SUPERECWFAN1,

Once I realized you had the ECW in your name, I fully understood that part. I was a long time follower of ECW on Sunshine Network, (now Sunsports), in Florida. We would go out to drink and play NTN trivia, and crash at my place, or other friend's places, just in time to watch ECW.

I actually got to see an ECW show, (1st row, ringside, no less), in Tallahassee, FL. It was 2 days after the, "TV taping" show in Jacksonville, FL where Rob Van Dam broke his ankle.

We were originally led to believe that our show was a regular, non-taped, house show. However, our seats being on the, "camera side", we were told we couldn't stand. (We later saw on Sunshine Network, that our show WAS taped. We even saw ourselves down in the corner!)

Funny thing was, (we had already read on the internet about RVD's broken ankle, and having to give up the TV title), they had a match between Spike Dudley, and someone else, for the vacated TV Title. Spike won, and there was much celebration.

The next week, on SSN, they didn't show that match. Most, if not all of the other matches from Tallahassee were shown. (Not only could we identify the stands of the venue, but we could see ourselves in the corner. I'm fat enough not to be mistaken for many people! ) They still talked about RVD's broken ankle, and being stripped of the title, but nothing about Spike winning it. A couple of weeks later, on SSN, we saw another match, "for the vacated title". I can't remember who won, but Spike wasn't involved. They never acknowledged his win in Tallahassee. I could understand that a bit, but when it ended up our whole show WAS taped for TV, and shown, but completely ignored the title change, it really pissed us off.

Anyway.....yeah, I realized you ECW ref. (Just saw NWA-TNA last night, and Sabu made a save on Raven....oh, ECW flashbacks!) Since we're on this tangent, I bet ole Bolty would make one heck of a wrestling manager! His brand of BS would fit in perfectly!!!! Oh, well, I can only dream!

I'm also glad you enjoyed my mistake of your name...SUPERSCREWFAN1. So, would that make you, "The Screwmeister"?!?!? If so, you must be related to Ron Jeremy! HAHA.

Later, and FMFFM! :D

Bolty would make a great Manager who spews his own hype. Could you imagine him screamin into a mic.." Gaiiilllll Simone wishes she could be like me !! MacQuarrie suuuckkkksssss!! "


I myself always wanted to be the jerk heel personally. Be the guy who shows up and just pisses the Good Guy off to the point he wants to kill me.


I'm glad there are ECW Fans on this board. Thats cool to hear and hey...I'm sure J-Bolt's claimin I am the SuperScrewfan1 right now. Screamin to everyone I screwed up his business because I told him the truth. ;)

[sk716]

Will you guys stop playing in this thread. Everytime I see a new post has been made I get all excited thinking maybe Bolty has resurfaced and started claiming that he invented Post It notes. And then I get in the thread and its SuperECW talking about wrestling!?!?!!

Admit it...me talking about wrestling here keeps the hope that J-Bolt will return to us one day. I always have wished him well and I hope he would come back to CBR. Hell I suggested he avoid this forum if he came back.

[Gail Simone]

Looks like his site is down again.

[sk716]

Maybe he's just having server problems...

Or maybe, he's trying to throw us off and he's going to use a new domain...

As you may have noticed the last time you went to that site, they are "uh, majorly updating", so perhaps the web-team took the site off-line briefly for the launch of the "All New LightningBolt Comics!!!!"

Although, why would the message say that if you are the owner, please contact us? that sounds like a basher hacked his site and put up an erroneous message to make it look like he doesn't pay his bills, which of course he does one hundred percent of the time except for those times when he doesn't.

[palaeomerus]

Dude! People in the 2005 Marquis Who's Who (for inventing special effects cooling rigs that NASA wants real bad) don't have to pay web host bills. I mean even Abraham $#%ing Lincoln and Neal Adams didn't get into Who's Who!

He's BAACCKK!! (http://www.lightningboltentertainment.com/home.html)

And yes, the site has undergone some renovation. There's a handful of headlines on the front page, which are all aggravatingly hard to read because they're in flashing red text.

They all link to the brand-new News Page (http://www.lightningboltentertainment.com/News/news.html) where J-Bolt has all sorts of big news to share:

The biggest news is that he's made "Who's Who" for a record-setting second year in a row!

Has he previously plugged a hardcover of When Lightning Strikes #0. I'm not sure I've ever heard of a single issue being offered in hardcover format.

There's a very long section devoted to why he decided to get rid of the bulletin boards. And for a corporate site, he talks an awful lot about his detractors. He mentions MacQ's name 8 times (for instance, talking about how he would keep signing up "using a different URL"), and Gail's 4. And he does use the word "ilk." One of the first references is:

"Though the damage [Gail & Jim] have caused has been minor, in comparison, nonetheless, they have committed both legal and civil crimes including plagiarism, public personality stalking, harassment as well as a laundry list of other broken laws., which are being dealt with in varied Courts of Law."

I smell libel.

Unfortunately, new info on 'Bombshell' is being kept under wraps. There's still no IMdB page for the movie, but if y'all recall, the release date was set for November 22, 2005. That's less than 2 months away.

They aren't new. The site is back to what it was about two months ago. I even sent J-Bolt an e-mail back in June or July listing his errors and ignorant misstatements in regard to my activities. He ignored me. I wonder why?

You smell libel? Wanna represent me? What's the law regarding jurisdiction of internet cases? Can you sue him from Georgia? Or does the plaintiff need to be iin Georgia as well?

[sk716]

*sniff*

I missed him so!

I've heard he's the one person who can bridge the gap between ninja's and pirates. I feel closer to sk and Papergirl already.

One thing I was able to learn about California libel law is that you have to first demand a retraction of the libelous speech. Failure to do that means that any damages will be limited to actual monetary losses (which in this case are pretty much nil). Have you considered a certified letter? Proof of receipt is always good.

You smell libel? Wanna represent me? What's the law regarding jurisdiction of internet cases? Can you sue him from Georgia? Or does the plaintiff need to be iin Georgia as well?

I'd be happy to, but it wouldn't work in a Georgia court. Not with a California plaintiff and a Nevada defendant. Sorry.

[Magneto_X]

I've heard he's the one person who can bridge the gap between ninja's and pirates. I feel closer to sk and Papergirl already.

Well, he's to stupid to be a ninja and the pirates have to higher standards to let him in. :)

*prays for J-Bolt to dare to start to sue anybody*

If a lawyer was desperate enough and silly enough to wnat to represent him and a judge didn't laugh at the suit after reading it I'd love to read what would happen in a court case.

Nah. Not nearly as satisfying as running him through and then dumping him overboard as shark-bait.

Hmm.... I did read the early settlers used to take a ninja along when they travelled through swamp country. The ninja would wade ahead of the company and the smell alone would cause gators and crocs to climb trees.

And you know why this is an especially bad time for the site to disappear? Because if y'all recall, the last publicized date for the release of "BombShell" was November 22, 2005. Just over two weeks ago.

Is this the first time J-Bolt has actually missed his announced release date, as opposed to pushing back the date in advance?

I think at this point he may have accepted the fact the movie was a dream. Its sad to see it happen. Its like someone waking up after a long dream of being a rich millionare.

Maybe this will finally spurn him forward to produce the comic book.

What's kind of a bummer is that Pat Morita was one of the people that was supposed to be in the movie, and now he's dead. There's something that's more sad than anything about this whole thing.

But when I feel sad, all I have to do is see the mullet and the joy comes back. Happy Holidays J-Bolt, wherever you are!

GoDaddy won't let me pay the fee for him unless I have his account info. I can't see that happening any time soon.

So my options are:

1) somebody PM me, I'll give you J-Bolt's phone number, you can call him and make the offer: I'll renew his domain for a year, no strings attached. I can paypal him the money if he gives you an e-mail address to send it to. Or you and he can work out whatever arrangements he wants.

2) I wait until the domain lapses, then buy it, move it to another server and try to recover as many pages as I can through the Wayback Machine or Google's caching system.

I hope we can save Lightning
