RED ALERT: I feel a HURLS MODE coming on... 
Hi Exar! Last thing I read (long time ago, admittedly) you were recovering from illness - hope you're well and fighting fit now.
And Evil - a pirate at last!

RL's been pretty busy, actually - now the GalCiv addiction has worn off and I remember there are actually OTHER things I could be doing with my time
Congrats and great to hear about your teaching practice - now you and Hurls can chat to each other about stressful teaching experiences!

|
| Found out the other day that I have passed my teaching practice |
|
Congrats on that - is there any more for you to do now or have you passed the course?

Wrong!!!! In the UK custom dictates you drink yourself senseless at 12. And start smoking at 6 and get someone pregnant/get pregnant as soon as possible.

| Hummm I think Mr. No Body probably drank along with his friend Ms. I Dunno. |

Of course, there is always the best of inspirations for such events, Mr Thorogood himself!!

I drink alone, yeah
With nobody else
I drink alone, yeah
With nobody else
You know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself
Every morning just before breakfast
I don't want no coffee or tea
Just me and good buddy Wiser
That's all I ever need
'Cause I drink alone, yeah
With nobody else
Yeah, you know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself
The other night I laid sleeping
And I woke from a terrible dream
So I caught up my pal Jack Daniel's
And his partner Jimmy Beam
And we drank alone, yeah
With nobody else
Yeah, you know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself
The other day I got invited to a party
But I stayed home instead
Just me and my pal Johnny Walker
And his brothers Black and Red
And we drank alone, yeah
With nobody else
Yeah, you know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself
My whole family done give up on me
And it makes me feel oh so bad
The only one who will hang out with me
Is my dear old granddad
And we drink alone, yeah
With nobody else
Yeah, you know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself
[Hurls Mode OFF]
Slurp!!!

And after that, we don't hear from anyone in the thread for four days!!!  No more drinking alone!!!

Doh, a good honest discussion about beer, instead of wine this, wine that, and I missed it  
| I mean to say, ya gotta be looking for COST EFFECTIVE intoxication, right? |
|
Binge drink - buy in bulk and save! Your doctor will hate you, but your accountant will love you!
| I've been surprised at how much free time I've had since I've given up on GalCiv. Mrs. Pax has realized that and I've afraid this will be my last gaming addicition. |
|
I hear that - I'm done with my GalCiv addiction! Now, I'm addicted to a few other games - I'll knock them off one by one, then I'll be clean! 
...
Hmm. Pretty long list, though. Could take a while. I'll, um, get back to you.

Wow. Wombie dropped out of the top 25.

P.S. Never let the wives know you're over your game addiction. Rediscover civ2 if you have too.

Y'all,
I tried to post this over at the SF bunker, but we're apparently dealing with some technical glitches over there.
Some of you may have noticed that I haven't been around recently. Although I had been spending a bit more time here on the Forums, it's been close to two weeks since I've put in an appearance.
As some of you are aware, my father had been struggling with cancer over the last year. Though it looked as if he had it licked - again - as recently as three months ago, it resurfaced and his health rapidly worsened. He passed away early last week.
Needless to say, it's going to be awhile before my life returns to a semblance of normalcy. I wanted to let y'all know that I value the friendships I've formed here, and I'll be back - but it's going to take some time to get things sorted out on both practical and emotional levels.
In the meantime, whether it's GalCiv, another game, or even just trading emails, I look forward to hearing from you again. Take care.

Samurai: deepest condolences from the Wombat clan - I've emailed you privately.
Cypher: in the midst of death, life springs forth - and it's a good thing! Best wishes to you and Mrs. Pax.
