It may be a rainy weekend here, and I'm doing a lot of sitting around, trying to heal my ankle.

Self-interest, but I hope others want it fixed, too.

Chat still appears to be broken. I just dropped in and saw 9 other PFers apparently logged-in.

try the chat now

I would, but I'm on an iThing, so no Flash. :(
 
Nobody responded to my post, and I doubt that they are actually there.

Thanks Greg!

Thanks Greg!

I don't know about you guys, but I found chat fun last week. I thought that the problems with chat were a metaphor of the solitude of life where one does not see anybody until he chooses to shout /back 5 really loud and suddenly everybody appears as if they where ghosts. I'm not the only one who had that thought, am I??

If you guys want to chat, go ahead. I'll drop in later. All of you are in charge. (hands out banning guns) Please set them to stun, I don't want any dead members.

We're there! (just me and Ftl for now) but it would be great to get a spontaneous chat going.

You've got the banning guns and the golden horn of destiny mixed up.

Why would you want to ban me? I contribute to Lame Jokes!

Are you insinuating that there is something dishonorable about posting to Lame Jokes?
