Hello, caller, you're on the air ...
Hola, muchachas y muchachos. This is one of your Chefs speaking. I thought I'd take this opportunity to answer a few questions I get asked on a regular basis. Please don't think I'm presenting them here because being asked them regularly aggravates me! It's just that I realize this place might be bit intimidating to a newcomer and thought I'd try to prevent somebody from taking a path towards confusion:
Do I have any icon sets you need? - Thank you for your consideration, but being a Chef means I can walk through the Employees Only door any ol' time and take whatever I want from the shelf. If Josh catches me he might dock my pay, but you get the picture.
Will you send me Tater Hill Habaneros? - I'd be glad to, but don't be surprised if someone else snipes your requests and sends you the set instead of me. And that's really for the best since IB users benefit most when trading with each other. Consider spreading the love with (aka awarding stamps to) other members.
How can I become a Chef? - You have to stage a coup, successfully taking one of the existing Chefs out of the political picture. But seriously, the Chefs are the employees of Firewheel Design.
Keep those cards and letters coming!

I have another question. We all know that the answer to life, the universe and everything is 42, but do the totally awesome Chefs know what the question is? (and if so, can we expect it to be released in the form of a coded message via an icon set in the manner of Athens a Priori?)

Shiver me timbers, when etherbrian says snipe, he means SNIPE.

i do have a question for the undulating visual orb: are you exhausted being you? i mean, the outcroppings from your mind that you so generously share with the world, i dunno, my mind is certainly boggled & pooped in the watching! :-)

Does that mean you are paid in tokens?
etherbrian on Jul 13, 2007
KatieK, we are paid in ice cream.
debbye, it's the ice cream.

FallenAngel: In the book they release the question too... It's "What is six multiplied with seven?". Don't ask me what that means... What confuses me is that it took a million years to get the answer, then many more years to develope a computer to get the question, and another million years to get the question itself... My windows calculator can get the question in like, eh... 10 milliseconds

Ah! Liquix, so you admit that you are a part of the solution do you? Ladies, gentlemen, and Blugbatter Beasts of the jury, I submit that Liquix has admitted their involvement in this "calculation", and should be found guilty and sentenced to an eternity of Icon Collecting at Icon Buffet.
debbye on Jul 13, 2007
now that is a cruel punishment, even for gswd!

I think its also good to point out that the "blog forum" is really just more of a "forum". People get confused by it, y'know.
iqon: have you seen my plasma cannon? I think I've got the coordinates for FD punched in, just need to find that cannon. I mean, imagine the free tokens! Just IMAGINE! Muahahahaha! Muahahahaha!
iqon on Jul 13, 2007
Me be sorry Steax, but me monkey was experimenting with the plasma cannon and a magnetic containment field. He be trying to make a shield for me schooner. Arrrrr, stupid monkey made the contaiment field a toroid that overlapped the cannon. He fired the cannon and the plasma looped around like grass through a goose and keelhauled the cannon. It still be gud fer ballast.

@Liquix - i thought the question was 6 by 9, not 6 by 7
