1> Heavy Metal music, bands, and shows I've been to
2> How to Run a Fan Convention - well, or badly
3> Pets - dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, etc: obtaining them, rescuing them, vetting them, saying good-bye to them
Speech outlines were written in my head as I typed that...

What happened with your luggage, and where did you go? I finally escaped the US last year; flew into Frankfurt, train up to Hamburg, drove to WACKEN for ALL the Metal, then Erfurt, Rothenburg, Wursburg, and last: Drachenstich in Furth im Wald; then train from Munich back to Frankfurt. WHEW!

Millie! From matted, paralyzed mess to snuggly ball chaser! Available for adoption from DFW Cocker Spaniel Rescue.

LOL! Someone hit the entirety of our Town Hall. City Manager, Mayor, Council, all the Directors, everyone down to the interns. No-one fessed up, and no-one tried to pull cameras or anything to spoil it. ^_^ Just enjoyed the joke.

Darling Helen, any event graced with your lovely presence is historic. ;)

Please tell me you've also seen the Black Metal Vegan Chef... Hail Seitan!

Please be careful and don't get yourself fired. >.<

I don't know you, but I'm glad you're here. <3

GREAT! Now make it where people can post to a "friends only" list instead of 100% public, so the rest of my peeps will ditch the FB cesspool and get their asses over here. That's LITERALLY the reason a lot of folks haven't joined yet. I asked. they weren't shy on telling me why they aren't here.

I'm a pretty big old-school Metallica fan, and I even hate their cover of that song. Just-uh garbage-uuuh. You gotta-uh say that-uh like James Hetfield-uh to get it. ;)

I'll message you closer to the trip - it's a work conference; I'll be staying right near La Villita. And my boss already suggested seeing friends and stuff while I'm down there - said he wasn't going to monitor my time, LOL!

Our foster dog, Milie, is doing GREAT with using both back legs, flipping her feet the right way-around, and just being a great little girl in general! She has a cold right now, but she's taking all her meds and improving every day. U^_^U

TEAM LUIGI.

Just remember - over half of us DO NOT WANT THAT TANGERINE FELON IN OUR HOUSE.

I cannot stand Bob Seger. Just makes me cringe.

That looks fantastic!!! Hey - I'm going to be in San Antonio for a few days early May. We should food. :D

"This was identified early on as a likely outcome."

That's the polite way to say we told you so.
