I just moved into my new apartment on the 1st, and found out I won't have my own internet until the 15th. As the library is difficult for me to get to in my new location my posting will be pretty much nonexistant until then. I'm hoping for some better news but it looks like this is it for the time being.

Edit - forgot to say something about Steve's absence - Do what Kiwi said, play SH3 - with no interruptions!

And @Castout - I don't usually get on here over a weekend - and when I come back I have about 4 or 5 pages of Four-Word Story Game to catch up on, along with myriad other threads - so a week will be aaaaargh! for Steve. Just imagine if it was Jim!

With the appropriate change in forum rank, of course.

15? A week that's not too bad.
Um, the 1st to the 15th is two weeks, and when you have no life and no friends it's a lifetime. Even though it was indeed cut down to one week I was going crazy. I have lots of books, and lots of things to do, but I miss Subsim, period.

Don't you just love Photoshop! :D

Steve, let me just say for the record that a lot of disturbing possibilities were discussed in this thread re: your absence and I did my best to keep everyone in line and anything you may read of mine that seems inappropriate at first glance was merely an attempt to distract the unruly mob from the even more unsavory things that my womanly intuition told me were brewing just below the surface.
