Are you kidding me? SIX DAYS without a posting in trains???? This really
sucks. And I only have myself to blame. And I blame the holidays for my
recent inactivity, but that only goes back so far.
So, I’m pledging to return to the days when my mouth ran wild in here, even if I
have just talk to the
Evil Tims (who
are obligated and honor-bound to respond in their NG)
What this NG really reminds me of is that one Star Trek Voyager episode
“Death Wish”
where a Q wants to commit suicide, because there is nothing left to do. We are
like the Continuum here; we have said everything, discussed everything, and so
we all just sit around and lurk. Which is a shame. (this analogy was brought to
you by DaveK)
Actually, it’s not that bad; I’ve actually progressed many of the friendships
that started here into real life versions, so that’s a good thing.
But it would also be a good thing to have this NG alive for the next round of
participants to enjoy. Yeah, I know it’s been almost 10 years! here for some,
but let’s re-energize! I’m going to post every day, even if it is just an old
pic or just a quick snapshot of a WIP. Or just a cheap shot at one of you,
baiting you for a response;-)
TRAINSTRAINSTRAINS! (8wide, of course!)

| I'm extremely guilty of not replying to other people's MOCs here on Lugnet. As for new stuff, I don't have anything I thought was post-worthy.
