Well, it's the 2nd, but not Friday, nor the second Friday, but beggars can't be choosers.

Y'all made me most decidedly welcome at Ohana, and I figure it's time to introduce myself here. The badging office was most helpful in assigning me a title of "Guest", and a quick sharpie later I had a handle. I do rather enjoy a bit of rum from time to time, and the collection grows large enough we had to buy a new cabinet to house the expanding selection not long ago. When I'm not drinking rum, I dabble in Computers (they even pay me to do it!), and I enjoy flashlights, photography, and short walks to the bar.

I wish to declare my intent to become a Fellow Moai, and I am ready to begin the 5 trials.

Looking forward to spending more time in person with everyone.

p.s. Sadly, I can't add my AOL Instant Messenger to my profile because they shut that down 3 years ago. But I would if I could.

Lacking AOL IM, perhaps we should update to Yahoo groups? USENET is such a bad neighborhood today.

Thanks for the welcome everybody!

Alright, so it sounds like if we just shut down Facebook and all go back to Myspace everything will be great. Does the [blink]tag work here?[/blink]

And now, for a bit of cocktail relief...

I don't know what any of that means, I just skipped to the cocktail relief. And I feel the relief.

So we don't need to remember our FidoNet node address and our Compuserve serial address?

At least I found a working Hayes 2400 MODEM in the attiv and a copy of Red Hat to recognize it in TTY. Anyone have a HPGL plotter file of the FOM artwork to write to a pen plotter using RS-235C? I can hardware port to RS-385 in a pinch.

My hangover says "oof." I think spending time with the FOM will help with my liver strength training regime.
