I played many many many many hours of acrophobia. I love it. Let's get something on a calendar, yes?!

I'm officially taking initiative! Let's try tonight, in the room called "TheCellar" (http://www.acrowars.com/TheCellar), 9 PM Central US Time--that's 10 PM Eastern US, and hell-if-I-know for all you furreners. Log in with your Cellar username if it's not already taken.

I will be very sad if it turns out I'm all alone in there tonight.

Jesus!


Um, to clarify, I accidentally had threaded mode on, and thought I was the first person to comment on the truck pictures. When I realised I wasn't, I also realised that a single "Jesus!" really was a bewildering post.

I should not post things when I have the 'flu.

Edit: Dry those tears! RellikLaerec loves me after all. But the rest of you are still off the Christmas card mailing list!


Edit part deux: Okay, there were a few more takers late in the hour. We'll be trying again tomorrow night at 9 PM CST if anyone else is up for it.

Not bad putter, referencing an IotD from 2001.

I tried to log in there but couldn't seem to. Maybe I'll try again with a different username. Perhaps mine is already taken and that's what the problem is.

Trust me.

Speaking from personal experience, when something like that happens, you don't have clean underwear on for long.

In my case, no coyotes were involoved.

Speaking of a messy seat.

When I was going to college my apartment was 2 blocks from a railroad crossing. A major crossing. There were five rails crossing the roadway. Of course there were gates that would come down because multitrack crossing are extra dangerous.

Well one day a freight train was coming. At the limit. 79MPH. The gates went down and the traffic started piling up on both sides of the tracks. The five locomotives blew past the crossing as did the next 20 box cars in the train of 122 cars. The 21th box car derailed and instantly took out the tracks. The next 44 cars came over the crossing sideways They stayed perfectly between the crossing gates missing them by less than a foot on each side. They were filled with sheet rock and lumber. 2 Ton wheel sets went by no longer under the cars. It was a gargantuan mess!

I ran over there. In talking to a responder later he said most of the people in the front few cars actually blew their shorts out. I think I would've sitting there for perhaps 60 seconds while this unfolded before me.

I wonder if the guy in that truck had time to notice or was drunk and wondered why his car stopped going..

Wow.

I love the set-up.

I was trying hard to dredge up some empathy for the driver - but although I appreciated it must be horrible to jump the guard rail, the car just wasn't trashed enough to get my sympathy.

And then the reveal. Oh My God!

Made me feel a lot better about today's disaster (choosing to walk in and then being rained on so hard every single stitch of clothing I had on was running with water).
