Thankyou dear,
Answering e-type mails about where you were was getting old.
I was telling them all the truth; you was in Jamacia, eating
sharkmeat and coconuts, and sucking on pina colodas while shooting
skeet.

Hi ASCII art people...
I just received a worrysome email from JRO.
I'm still around. I haven't had the time to create or update.
We just bought a new house and are in the process of moving.
(and selling)
Moving is a real pain.. .but it'll be worth it when it's over.
We'll be in the new house by Christmas.
I'll try to drop in when I can.
In the meantime, my website is still up for people wanting
to visit....

Sounds like a good reason to me, Joan! Congratulions! Just curious... What does your new house look like? Do you have a spare moment to render it in ASCII? This could be the first ASCII house-warming party, you know. No need to cater. The food and drinks dpt. on your website is known to all of us. :) bye, mic

I forgot to sign my own post. Oh well... I guess that puts me right up there with this new crowd of nickname folks. There sure seems to be a lot of 'em, these days. Time was I used to 'member, when folks had the guts to use they own names. Not anymore... These days, it looks like you gotta have some kind of street handle, or something. Makes me feel like an invasion from the ghetto... Or some "chat" network. Since I done forgot to sign my own stachybotrys post, I won't bother to sign this one, either.
