(Because ducks don't care about your politics, religion, skin colour, choice of music or even your haircut. They like everyone, provided you bring them food.)

Ah, back into this thread, yes?
No, I'm not a vamp, silly. Though I'm pale enough to be one. And I look nothing like Willow, either. I have new pictures up in "The Next Picture Thread" for anyone who wants to see for themselves.

I had a hard time getting onto the site today. I just got on a few minutes ago. Maybe others were having the same problem.

I made a web site to introduce my friends to the 'Verse.

What? We can't be official pyros in uniform?

To explain a bit further on my activities last night:

With fire danger season upon us (already), we try and undertake fuel-reduction measures around the district. Since that mostly means scrub and massive undergrowth, we do controlled burns up and down hillsides to remove most of the stuff on the ground, leaving the trees untouched. Of course, if a big enough fire got started, it wouldn't matter how much we'd done in advvance, it'd still rip through the gullies anyway.

They're sometimes more semi-controlled than truly controlled. Some have been so poorly controlled before that they have turned into actual bushfires, but we try to be more careful than that.

Mornin' Forsaken.

It's been quiet in here the past week or so (this thread has been around longer than most that I have seen). Everyone feeling ok? Or are we all just very busy people?

I definitely know the feeling of the latter.

Yeah, it's a tragedy. Appearantly the management at the factories tried cutting wages, the union told them to go get humped, and now they're just sitting around trading insults.

I was just in a dentist chair for an hour. I hurt too much to dance or eat sweet things, so I'm just gonna get in that steaming hot tub over there and wait for my mouth to wake up.
And in real life I'm probably headed for bed real soon, because I have to be up early.

Nice pic with the flaming sword PhoenixRose, well done indeed.

I wish there was an actual shot or pill or powder that would give me energy plus make the workday go by super-quick. *sigh* I'll just have to settle for energy I suppose.
