"X is where you start", what x?

"This is THE first image", why is "THE" written in capital letters and not "FIRST"

Spontanious thoughts anyone? :)

*whimpers and peeks down the staircase, waiting for Omi*

*Walks in tired*

Don't worry, I'm not dead... yet... still on 59 and I probably won't be able to look at it until 2 AM my time, which is around 5 hours from now, and i get of work in 15 minutes

lol, by 2 AM I'll probably have A LOT of catching up to do...

So long as you're still with us Greg, I'm sure you won't be too far behind.

Drive home safely when you do *hugs*

Well, I'm stumped too. I probably shouldn't be, but I have lost the spark for now. I can see the connections, but nothing.
