Hey all.

I'm sorry that I've been a wee bit out-of-pocket in the past couple of weeks. Actually, last week I left my previous employement of a little over four years to pursue a new position. ( Yes ... I have a day job. ) So, as you might imagine, I had a lot of things to hand off and things were really busy. I'm now in my first full week at the new job, and I'm getting used a much earlier schedule. In any case, fear not. I have not abandoned the forums. I just needed to focus on real life for a bit.

I do have some good news though. I have added some functionality that allows social group leaders to create a fully functional forum for their social group to use. This functionality is available for all Community Supporters who create social groups on the forum. You'll find the option to create your forum at the bottom navigation section of your social forum, in the same area as the Edit Group, Invite Members, etc links.

Enjoy!

As the book title goes "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff." The site looks better then when I looked at it last.

Okay, I admit it! I ate Farcasters brain after watching too many zombie movies. I am trying to reanimate the corpse, but seem to be missing a step or two. Any ideas?

Sure...well...

I say you need to grow back the brain, call back the soul from the outer plains but if you are going to go to all that trouble Rabkala I'd insert some psionic crystals into the cloned brain before you call the soul back.

You know like those nice little familiars from the psionic handbook...just small little seed crystals...and THEN call back his soul and have them whisper to him while he dreams so that he can code PHP, MYSQL, and answer email in his SLEEP!

Laugh,

Jonathan

Farcaster, congrats & good luck with the new job. Before you know it, you'll be into a routine once again.

Guess I'll have to see what's involved in being a community supporter before being able to use this function.

So Do they let you go with the Pointy Hat - Gandalf type look to work? I always wondered how do you manage to type with the beard getting in the way on the keyboard. And the robes, are they machine washable?

If you go to work in your "Secret Identity", How do you transform into "Farcaster" when responding from work (@ lunch time)?

the question you need to be asking yourselves is whether farcaster is just a dream of the real person, or if the person is just a dream of the real farcaster....

I love laughing these days and smiling it helps pass the time while I wait for an interview opportunity and for my dance performance class to start.

I am doing a East Coast Swing Lindy performance class with a man named Joe Palmer to the song "Tan Shoes with Pink Shoe Laces". It gets really intense somedays and we are all hyper perfectionist so...

yeah...Farcaster I have no idea any longer what the West Coast of the United states feels like but I hear it is pretty intense out there as well.

Can't we just blame the women? :D

I mean...where have all the flowers gone...the young girls have PICKED them EVERYONE!

Yup blame em for the economy...:lol:

I can't speak for where he is now, but I know where he was this weekend and I'm wondering if there are any authorities anywhere that would allow me to press charges on attempted murder of a party of 5...
