Yes, happy Midsummer!

Hold hands with someone you love and jump over the fire.

There will be Open Museums Night here tomorrow... still can't decide were to go...

durinsbane2244 · 06-23-2006, 03:25 PM

happy missummer! dance the grim fandango! (and yes, the dance of death has nothing to do with midsummer)

Grey_Wolf · 06-23-2006, 04:24 PM

Happy midsummer to ye all!

durinsbane2244 · 06-23-2006, 04:34 PM

yes...too bad it's boring, eh?

hm...what exactly is that? always on the lookout for the oppurtunity to learn, eh?

Farimir Captain of Gondor · 06-24-2006, 02:35 AM

It's Midsummer already?! But the 21st was the first day of summer?

What is Midsummer? I'm always reading to hear of a new holiday. Thanks to Addy I now have my very own Nameday. June 2.

Here's an explanation of sorts, DB!

trolls' bane · 06-24-2006, 05:29 AM

Well, it's good to be back!

I'm sort of in a panic. I'm on vacation, I've missed months of mooting, and I have absolutely no clue where I left off in my blog nor what day I left the moot. I have a large chunk of my life missing.
But my temporary absence at the 'moot proved beneficial. I ended up writing some pretty good writing things, and Quantum Town has indeed flourished like a clak beepbox player out of hell.

What great events have I missed? (It's okay, I know that won't be answered, it never is.)

Oh, and I've succumbed to the MySpace disease. My mom tipped the balance for me.

Butterbeer · 06-24-2006, 05:50 AM

imagines TB's mom suddenly standing on a balance and catapulting TB spinning into a virtual space ...

* i thought the mid spin wave was a nice touch though!*

**EDIT**

no offence - i don't know how heavy your Mom is

...but i just got the image of the be-slippered momma you see occasionally from slippers upto knees on the tom and jerry cartoons in my head now!"

LOL!
Not quite. My mom's still walks like C-3P0, as when she got out of the hospital for the last time.

Butterbeer · 06-24-2006, 06:03 AM

so that makes you son of C-3P0?
..y'know, TB? ... that explains a lot!

Grey_Wolf · 06-24-2006, 06:07 AM

Hallo there, BB. How ya doing? What have u been doing lately? I keep posting The Pyrates if u still care to come over and have look at PIL. The Team game is over as pm'd u before. Run out of subjects to clue.

Best,
GW

trolls' bane · 06-24-2006, 06:08 AM

Oh, by the way, if anyone is wondering how I've been spending my time, I've been watching Law & Order. I just can't understand how people don't like the main detective on Law & Order: Criminal Intent. He's the best detective, by far! People who don't like him must be spherical idiots: they're idiots no matter what way you look at them!

What's his name?
Oh, I'm awaiting him to add me on myspace (probably just a fanatic...er...fan. After all, I tried adding Charles Darwin, Fat Tony, and Q.)

Grey_Wolf · 06-24-2006, 06:12 AM

Hi there TB! My games and the lyrd is living a comatose life here as u see.

Yes, ive seen a couple of ep's of LaO, pretty good, but i rather follow CSI: NY. Theyre tougher.

trolls' bane · 06-24-2006, 06:19 AM

I've still never seen CSI.

I'm trying to figure out the more advanced aspects of my brand new Pickett pocket slide-rule (Hmm...

). Anyway, my grandpa gave me two Pickett slide-rules, one's a small pocket one, and the other much larger. I want to make better use of it, so I figured I'd better take a tutorial. Now is far from the right time, because I might have to suddenly be asleep when my stepdad comes home. (Mom doesn't really care, but Ed does.) But I have a great deal of time tomorrow.

Butterbeer · 06-24-2006, 06:19 AM

morning?

It died?

then my last request would be to announce a wake for it over there and invite all the players and merecenaries to have a wake party in da banter room in rememberance!

OK?

best, BB

Grey_Wolf · 06-24-2006, 08:23 AM

Sure, BB, my friend. Ur last request will be posted.

Best,
GW

Grey_Wolf · 06-24-2006, 01:10 PM

Sweden run roughshod over by the Germans. 0-2

Spock · 06-24-2006, 06:36 PM

Now for a cup of Twinings Tea and a pecan sandie.

Interesting factoid; if all the string from Twinings Tea bags sold in one year were laid end to end, they'd circle the earth 15 million times.
