Linda currently is posting on the go.com, rangingbull (links below) and Yahoo boards regarding Pixar. She was removed from SI for harassment on the SI FONAR board.

It was kind of hard for me to believe that she was kicked off SI, because her posts on SI's Pixar board were quite good. However, I've recently touched a raw nerve with her so she's making a good effort to post negative comments to my posts on the go.com site. (I mostly post on the go.com site these days.) It can be quite annoying, but fortunately ragingbull and go.com have an "ignore" feature. I think SI's approach (removing Linda's access) may have been a bit draconian, but SI touts the civility and quality of their boards as a major selling point.

But back to Pixar: I picked up my first "Toy Story 2" toys at KMart last night. They were small talking "Mrs. Potato Head", "Mr. Potato Head" and "Mike" made by Hasbro/Playskool. They didn't have a price on them yet, but KMart sold them to me for $3.99 each (I think I got a bargain). When the cashier called for a price check she started playing with them and laughing. Looks good for TS2!
