I will probably be leaving the board as a moderator soon (don't tell greenguy; I haven't told him yet). I haven't been around much lately due to work, and we have suffered another family tragedy recently.
It is my fault that the main site is never updated. I always have high hopes that I will have time to make it look good enough to put on my resume, especially since I am also trying to finally complete a computer science degree.
Frank "Maxwell-FBI" has expressed interest in taking over for me, so hopefully he can make this site look the way it should. Perhaps he and greenguy will still let me contribute from time to time.
Anyway, I will still pop up now and then when I'm bored at work (like today) and post something, but I wanted to give an explanation to those from the old board who may wonder what happened to me when the site and board change hands.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss and wish you the best.
It's very hard to keep these sites going with a "real life" to take care of also. I have two of these things, and sometimes all I can do is say "Hi".
You've done a great job. Don't see why it doesn't belong on your resumé. Your site was included on the official DVD! That is amazing, right there! I'll bet this is one among a lengthy list of accomplishments on your resumé.
Good luck. See you next time you drop by. TG

T.....I want to thank you publically for everything you've done over the past few years for this site. I know the info comes from my collection that I've built on since 1981, but if it wasn't for you (and Max at the beginning) I would not have been able to share all the photo's and information I've collected with fans. You came up with some awesome ideas, and gave the site a look that I and many others have enjoyed. I wish nothing but the best for you and the family, please keep in touch and stop by when you have the chance.

I wish you all the best and hope to see you around again soon. Take care and thank you for your all the work you've done. "You're a good trooper". L. PS: can you please kindly explain the meaning of your nickname? The question has been around a couple of times but was never actually answered and I am still puzzling myself. Thank you.

Well...that's it.
They hired a new IT guy at work, and he instantly figured out my work-around for getting to the site without WebSense interferring.
That means that I can't be around during the day, and my family keeps me pretty busy at night and weekends, so I guess I'm done here. I'll stop by at least once a week, but that's about it.
I'll be in AIM next Sunday, though, and will be here almost every night for four months starting the end of April. Don't know what will happen in August, though.
Crap. Now I have to actually work at work. The hardest part of my job is finding things to do, to make it look like I have enough to do...
OK, Mel, you're in charge.

What are you talking about, man?
Would you can all this drivel...!!!? I can't stand all this drivel. It makes my EYES water...
With my job, there are times I can't be around for a month, or maybe more. Who knows? This past summer I was half way around the world, and only got on infrequently, when I could shove someone off a computer at a public internet cafe... But when I came back, I was welcomed with open arms... right?
It's now the same with you, right? You'll come by when you can, and when you are not, you just miss us and we'll miss you and we'll set play dates when we can (like Sunday).
You'll spend your time at work just thinking of things to say when you do come online.
Look at what you wrote at this beginning of this thread... you left, you came back, you leave again... we hope you will be back sooner rather than later, but Mac will hold down the fort. As will I in my limited way...
Plus, if you can't be online as much, just pop up that wordprocessing program and write your story...
So would you just can all the drivel and come back soon?
MyT, time for a new job...? I mean... really... HUMPH!!!
Your income with benefits for you and the kids, your bills, your mortgage.....
...or us?
I mean.... come on!!
You know, this is a good place to let people know when you are taking off for a while. I mean, if Mac suddenly didn't post for a few days, we'd all think she was in an accident or something and start a mass phone call acampaign to all Texas hospitals to see what happened to her...

Oh, and MyT.... by the way, would you give someone the powers to change the custom titles before you go on board leave?
(**cough** **cough**)
Maybe someone with a good sense of humor?

We'll keep the porchlight on for you, MyTatuo. See you next Sunday, though, at the GAH chat!

OK, Mel, you're in charge. That sucks. We still hope to see you around though. As Josie said, we all take leaves of absence sometimes. I have, you have, GG always does, Josie has, etc. It will continue to happen. Look at THATGIRL for crying out loud. I am sure you will find a way to be around a lot, even if it is just snippets here and there. As for the family, wear them out early and then stay up late with us. I hope that your job gets better or that you find a new one so that things work out better. If nothing else, slip the IT guy some money or something and see if he will look past your indiscretion at work. And Josie, maybe you should get a CT you like BEFORE he leaves.

Fine...I don't think anyone would be as creative or funny as MyTatuo. Better?

Yes. Better...
True. He IS one of the funny ones on the board. HD, maybe you should get some lessons before he leaves...

We're all funny in our own way, some literal, others more unique (in a good way) such as you guys. That said, I'm going to miss the constant banter from you MyTatuo, and good luck here. Look forward to the chat as well... once we figure out where we're going to have it (AIM or one of the two chatrooms). And...I don't know of any custom title that works better than the current one Jo.
