The pastor did the speaking, although had anybody asked beforehand to speak, I am sure he or she would have been welcome to do so. Memorial services here are rather diverse.

It sounds to me like it was a service SHE would have liked, and that is very special.

Rob's heartfelt posts were very timely for me. I have an aunty who I'm very close to on the way out due to cancer and this morning she told my mother (who has turned into one of her closest friends) that she couldn't talk any more and it was their last conversation. It's heart breaking for me. She is a special woman - strong-willed, loving, a true force of nature. She could command a room when she walked into it. She's also a natural fighter, and so she has lived nearly two and a half years after being told she would have trouble getting to six months.

But now it's clear she isn't going to last the week - perhaps not the day. It's really meaningful to hear someone as good with words as Rob is say what he said, at just the right time. While his words speak for him and him alone, his heart speaks for many more.

Thanks Rob :hugs:

We went back to our old house for the last time tonight. Cleaned out the last of our stuff, did a final clean... it was the last day of our notice. I was feeling a little sad, even though a house is an inanimate object, I've really enjoyed living there and I will miss it.

It was while we were there that my aunt finally passed away. It's funny how sometimes life folds and reflects in on itself. Experiences intertwine and become forever linked.

There's one plane that flies out if Wellington three times a week. We have a chronically short runway so it's the only truly big plane we get, and it has the most wonderful sound. I always loved listening to it out on our patio, as we had a clear line of sight and sound to the airport. The plane took off ten minutes after my aunt died. It was such a beautiful experience just listening to that sound for the last time... I won't hear it at the new place.

Hey everyone! :yay:

I cannot express how happy I am that the site is back. I also just want to emphasize that, due to working crazy hours and having no relevant knowledge whatsoever, I did absolutely nothing to accomplish this. Daisy and Sokoth were working constantly with every bit of their free time to battle every incoming issue and spearheading the charge. I also want to acknowledge the incredible assistance of Tranq and especially Makaze, whose very generous help was exactly what we needed to get things running again. We absolutely wouldn't be here again without any of them, so be sure to join me in telling them thanks so much for the help!

And it's good to be around you all again. Understatement of the year.

Over the past month I definitely have missed having this place in my life, despite the fact that I've just had one of the busiest months of my entire life so often it didn't have much time to register. The work onslaught shows no signs of letting up since in addition to networking, dissertation, other projects, and everything else I start teaching a 5-week class (for the first time at that) on Tuesday, so mafia is a no-go for quite some time, but I'm happy that now I can talk OT/music/whatever with you folks and hop in the discord whenever I have time. So rest assured you'll see my screenname pop in here from time to time, as much as I can afford for now, and just know that I really miss being more involved around here. Hopefully I'll get to talk to you all again soon. :D

A) Keep offline backups
B) Update in increments
C) Get a test site

I just got headhunted for a job that I think I'd really enjoy and that will be a step up in seniority.

It's still in the public sector, so that means that getting the job is no sure thing - it has to be openly advertised and there will be a full selection panel. But being headhunted by the CLO (L = legal) is a leg up to that in that there's already trust there and so someone else needs to show something more important than that.

I won't say more for now, other than to say I'm excited enough to post here. It will probably mean less time, more responsibility, but I guess this is real life.

So for our friends' cookout we tried to do this watermelon grill thing that we saw in a Tasty video:

Turned out alright, but it was messy and frustrating and we couldn't really get it to stand on the legs. But it was fun. I'm proud of the rainbow skewers at least.

Ok Folks, us admins got together and got to bitching and decided that it was time to retire the Politics thread for a while. So we did that. We did not delete it, we just moved it so all of your insults (and mine, lol, no false self images here) are saved for posterity. And maybe for future us. But we were all just a bit over it at this time, so there you go.

*Waits for PMs from DH*

Carry on being random :noble:

We hid it for now. It might be back. It might not.

Opinions are opinions, not facts. They can't be proved or disproved, but gosh, do people love trying, amirite? There are whole swaths of my family with whom I only discuss weddings, babies and funerals. Less hurt that way.

Frankly, though I was an advocate of the politics thread at one time I had grown tired of it. Too much opinion presented as fact as S~V~S says, including me. Plus, I really hated to see people argue with each other on this site. I would prefer all the arguing take place in games only.

Sometimes it will naturally come out, but it can be contained if we just remember that this is a game on a message board forum that 99.99% of the population of the Earth has never heard of before. No matter how successful anyone is, it means just about nothing.

Imo every opinion is a fact that humanity has a limited knowledge of.

And one way to reach that knowledge is to argue it.

Some people are better at arguing than others.

We made the decision we made because there has been hurt (and this is over the course of the thread, not just recently) and you can, and should, feel free to discuss what you will via PM.

I just want to ensure people know that when I click "no" in every sign-up thread, it's not because I hate your game. I just can't commit to Mafia right now, and that'll probably hold true for a while.

This is one of those "It's not you, it's me" posts. Everyone knows how you really feel. You don't have to sugarcoat it. You just don't want to play in the games because I'm always on the "Yes" option.

I kid. Whatever you're busy with, I hope it's fulfilling and/or worthwhile! :beer:

Eloh took the children to Vacation Bible School. For those who don't know, that's church all week for kids.

This is what happened.

Teacher: Who knows what "prophecy" is?

Abigail: That's like when you buy a house. That's your prophecy.

Later...

Teacher: Who knows what "healing" is?

Simon: It's what a cleric does with magic!

Simon understands. I remember once in grade school when a teacher asked the class if anyone knew what alchemy is. I excitedly raised my hand and answered that it was the art of potion-making.

The teacher gave me an awkward look and at least one other kid snickered. :|

You know how your iPhone suggests three possible words you mean or might want next as you type? My fat fingers tend to accidentally hit those words while I am trying to type, resulting in some of the most confusing and hysterical gibberish ever read.

Thanks! Life has been really busy, new baby and such (not sure last time I was on here).
I temporarily quit my home site, and it basically died in my absence. Not because I was gone, just while I was gone. I'll have to see if I have time in the next while to sign for a game :) Been trying to play Narrator Mafia a little, but the crowd is so small that it's hard to organize a game on it.

Plus, I miss the intricacies of longform Mafia ♥

Oh, Narrator is just a browser form of Mafia (kind of like ToS, but more similar to Forum Mafia's ability to be customized). I posted about it like a year ago, but it was pretty alpha then so probably didn't get much use.

My home site was Sc2Mafia, which is the forums for the StarCraft II Arcade map for Mafia. But, as Sc2's player base dwindles, so does the Forum's.

Oh, Narrator is just a browser form of Mafia (kind of like ToS, but more similar to Forum Mafia's ability to be customized). I posted about it like a year ago, but it was pretty alpha then so probably didn't get much use.

My home site was Sc2Mafia, which is the forums for the StarCraft II Arcade map for Mafia. But, as Sc2's player base dwindles, so does the Forum's.
G-Man's Chicka, Chicka, 1, 2, 3 game is in sign ups and it should be an intriguing concept game. :)

So, today, my death-defying husband gave away my car. Thats right, he gave it to my niece if she wants to come get it. We had planned to buy a new car but the idea was we would trade this one in or sell it separately. I think his illness has affected his brain.

Oh no. Have you talked to him about it? :(

I did but he's in this mood, probably because he had a low probability of survival and survived anyway, of showing appreciation to people he cares for. I'm all for that but we really don't have money to burn. Plus I have no idea how we are going to get the car to her in Georgia. Hope she's willing to fly down and drive it back cause we can't drive it up there. I did try to impress on him that I would never give away $2000 worth of assets without consulting him first and he should show me the same courtesy.

O wow. Is she going to do it? And a mom wants to get it for her son? That seems a little...odd.

Anybody here who lives in the states ever done a power of attorney? If so, did you use legal zoom or an attorney or something else?
