I was hoping she and I could help each other out.  No point in bringing in everyone.   or I'll just self flagellate when I have a moment, no sweat Paq.

Now that's just truly something I don't want to be present for. But, hey, uhm...have a hand at it...uh...I mean...enjoy yourself....sheesh

Just don't overdo it; I hear you can go blind from that.

Last year I had become so disillusioned with what this board had become that I had to take an extended break.  It was either do that or leave forever which I didn't want to do and it actually worked out well.
I still lurk and post here every now and then when I see a topic that interests me, but the problem, like AndyC mentioned, is that us longtimers have written and/or posted on topics that have already been brought up before...sometimes more than once and it can get pretty stale after a while.

One big reason for my absence is the extreme sport of Airsoft.  I created and run Eastern Iowa Airsoft and it has taken up a huge chunk of my time.  In the beginning I was always losing money and operating in the red.  Nowadays it's gotten to the point where I can easily net $500-$1000 for each event I host.  Players are hungry for it and cannot seem to get enough and it takes up the majority of my time.

I'll try to post more interesting topics when I can.
In the meantime, Trek, take a break if you need it and come back later.
It worked for me!  Smile

I don't know.  I can't agree with some of the things being said.  I've been here a while, and kinda look forward to logging in and seeing new posts.  I've gotten fairly familiar with the people here.

I like some of the game threads.  Gives me a chance to somewhat discuss wrestling, which I don't get to do often. It

I want to be Ripley when I grow up.

I've mentioned  before that at least three of us are within a reasonable driving distance of Toronto. I'd be interested in discussing that.
Indeed you have, Andy!  Off the top of my head: TADFF is in late August, AdAstra is in early April, Toronto Comicon is in March (I know you mentioned March as a possibility), WOTS and FanExpo are in September...we'll have to find an event (and date) that suits the greatest number (what - 3??) and see that it happens.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
