Hi!

Reasonably enough ... no time to make a syllabus or order books. I wasn't happy about the Logic class, but the Writing class was fun!

Aagh! My sympathies. Al lI can say is that it's these kinds of things that "build character." Though, with all the character building going on, I'm surprised I don't have MPD.
Sorry about the whining. Rantspace become a place for catharsis, and no one said catharsis was pretty. Unless it's some drop-dead gorgeous chick getting righteously angry. If you're into that kind of thing.
But I *digress.*

Y'know, I hadn't even gotten to the point of thinking about fan art. It's a great idea! I also have a few other things I might put up for the FAQ, including definitions of some of the made-up words that inevitably arise when writing sci-fi.

LOL! Ah, someone who knows the way to my heart. I like to think of it this way: I have been fortunate enough not to fall hands-first into a bonfire. ;)
All right -- posting from work, waiting for the boss to show. Should bail before trouble ....
