She sure is, Key-Lime Pie Girl and I have been together since then. Good memory! Rachel remembers you as well and was part of the push for me reaching out to Renato et al. and coming back here. Takes good care of me. We actually got married recently as she wanted her Dad to walk her down the aisle (he has Parkinsons).

Haha, It's been a trip Steve! You really need to figure out your own shit when you have little ones to look after. They both look much more like Mom, but they each have half of my brain. I've come to realize that I'm basically a shaman and a hunter trapped in the same body. Jack/Jackson (my 9yo, soon to be 10) is the shaman. He's super deep and sensitive, always reading or drawing, has spoken like an adult since he was 5 and has most of them wrapped around his finger. Most of the girls in his class and probably a few of the boys have crushes on him and he has absolutely no idea, lol. We're currently reading together while I have my morning coffee. Westley/West (my 4yo) is most definately the hunter. He's like a force of nature, full of personality, turn your back for a second and he's gone, always climbing the highest thing he can find but rarely gets hurt. Lies compulsively, but is *terrible* at it. Lately has been bringing home school library books without taking them out properly and tells us that his friends are giving them to him. They certainly keep us on our toes.

No, that's not what I mean. Your little orange haired gnome can stuff it.

Trying to print the One Piece (Dungeons & Devil Fruits) rules for that D&D game I'm running for my Son's birthday and it crapped out half way through the players handbook. So I'll probably try to order some of the 3rd party toner... or just sneak print it at work.

Not available in Canada... need one of them fancy VPNs

Haha, I'm bad with names to begin with, but I certainly remember him. Leprechaun is on point for sure.

Happy Birthday Dinny! I either didn't clock your real name back in the day or it has filtered through the sieve that is my mind. I'm excellent with the search tool though, so finally figured it out. Have a good one and hopefully you do come back! It's pretty nice here. Definately more comfortable than the 'other place'.

Thanks for the link, I'll have a look when I get out of the kids room, my 4yo is just falling asleep. The 9yo is at baseball.

I'm going to look into the 3rd party cartridges. When we first got it I don't think there were any, but hopefully that has changed by now.

Cool, I'll check it out. Thanks!

Recently I had been toying with the idea of streaming and making videos, but had been dragging my feet on actually starting... Then around a week ago I was watching elybeatmaker, a streamer I enjoy, and he decided to raid me when he finished. Ended up being an absolute blast and I think I was actually decent at it. Figured this might be a good way to reconnect with some of the friends I've left behind along the way and rekindle/reapply some of my previous 'obsessions'. Not to say that I don't listen to music anymore, but I'm not as picky as I once was and tend to spin vinyl with the kids on some modest speakers while the ThunderCougerFalconBi... *ahem* McAlister Audio Massive Attack sadly collects dust for the most part. Hoping to change that soon though. Anyway, the shameless plug: [philodox42 on Twitch] I've only had three streams so far, and one was largely a technical test. I'd recommend watching the first bit of the long one as that's when the raid hit and you can see me scramble. I'm actually pretty close to Affiliate after that raid, so a follow would really help and it would be a great way to catch up with some old friends. I can also post here the next time I stream in case anyone wants to chat. Doesn't have to have anything to do with Minecraft... and if anyone here does play Minecraft, lmk and I can send you an invite to my server. PS. If the links aren't allowed, please strip them from the post.

Basically all in the title... finally cancelled my HP Instant Ink service (what a scam) and would like a normal printer please.

Those shorts though...

This is outstanding Birgir! I think you were already doing this or talking about it back when I was active, but this is a whole other level! Also, I took a peek at your site. How do you have so many Stax sets for sale!?!? Did you buy an abandoned factory and get lucky or something!?

Forgot to mention, my oldest son is turning 10 this month and we are throwing him a One Piece themed B-Day party... I'm going to run a One Piece themed game for him and 4-5 of his friends. SUPER NERVOUS! Ten year olds are harsh critics, lol. Also a little rusty, but I used to be quite good, so we'll see what I can come up with. EDIT: HA! You can double post here, excellent. Suck it Head-Fi!

That's awesome. I've played in a few of the 'Role with Pride' games through TorontoDnD and they are usually better than the 'regular' games tbh. I usually play female characters, always have, and nobody says boo or expects my character to be a half naked pornstar in a chainmail bikini... its refreshing. Also, hey Steve!!! Missed you buddy. I still show off your woodwork with pride, though since covid, I have less people to show it to. I miss showing off my wood. 😕 EDIT: Oops, didn't realise I was resurrecting a 4 year old thread.

Oh my GOD. Patrick82 has a cable company!?!? So much to read... and wait, there's videos. Amazing.

Happy Belated Birthday Renato!

Happy Belated Birthday Jacob!

Happy Belated Birthday!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Oh well, it saves me a whack of money on the bright side.

Hope you have a great Birthday Todd! Hope you have your cake and eat it too... ...at least I think that's a cake. Nice colour on those headphones.
