Clearly, you, sir, have not tried this puzzle.




it even makes me want to move back to central jersey, and I've never even lived there.

Today petemagyar was working on them for a while, and asked me to put them back together so he could play with them.

Oh, you can friend him as petemagyar_mysp now if you really want to.

	But neither of those places have White Castle!

Seriously though, I think Northern Jersey's working out pretty well for me these days. Despite the snow and parking.

I'll have you know that _guy_incognito wrote that subject line, and not me.

I'm too much of a coward to APOC'05, no matter how much I really want to deep inside. You know me. You know that I'm all about the apocalypse more than anyone else I've met save you. Having teachers lend me apocalyptic writings in school, writing out various scenarios for things leading up to crisis points and possible aftermath paths, my tastes in video games and books, and so forth. Quite a few times I confronted my fellow admin on cybersphere for ignoring the post-apocalyptic nature of the game, focusing only on the cyberpunk, or keeping the two as separate entities instead of letting the two themes just permeate everything. Multiple people listed me as their Y2K contingency plan, and many friends have had dreams of me in an Aunty Entity role.

But I'm lacking in creative output these days. I can't produce anything of beauty or originality these days. I have friends who are musicians, artists, and writers. Anything I spew out seems derivative, uninspired, and crude standing near them. My girlfriend jenniever's a published author. When I was writing up my part of the paper windexcowboy and I presented, I felt idiotic and inferior. It was the first time I had written something other than an email or journal entry in years, not counting cybersphere, which was my only creative outlet for far too long. My sections of the paper were, quite frankly, a steaming pile of fetid dog shit.

So yeah. I'll be excitedly reading the entries.

I was wondering when you were going to point that out...you probably could have changed that subject if you felt it was unfitting...

Really, what I should have done, after listening to your phone post and coming up with that subject line, is taken that as inspiration and just submitted my APOC '05 entry via the phone, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN ORIGINAL, GENIUS ... and a shit ton easier.

	Oh, no, I didn't think it was unfitting...

I thought it was hilarious, and cracked up when I read it followed by madolan's reply. Thank you!

I do try!
