Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm stunned to hear the news about DX. It's such a shock, especially for it to take so long to find out.

Lots of people here having major troubles right now. I'm so sorry for all of you. This has been a terrible year for so many.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Hello, everyone. Even though I was brought back to the board by news of amyth and then the first thing I see is news of DX, it is damn good to see you all again.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Hello, Anne!

Welcome, BigOwl! We’ve heard many good things about you

If something happens to me, I expect the Buffista spirit people in my complex would get the word to smonster quickly. If/when I move back to MI, I’ll make further arrangements.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Well closing the web and going to bed after posting didn’t make things go away.

It's lovely to see you, Anne.

Delightful.

Welcome, BigOwl. That's such a cute naming story.

Still stunned, yes. I'll line someone up for myself. More's the pity, I'm not that connected to people here in the physical world, though certainly through FaceBook. My DP has at least one b.orger friended, and I think my sister has another, maybe, but neither of them knows the exact connection or that notifying you guys would be a thing.

ETA: DP knows and hears about the board; he just doesn't know where to go, etc.

The news makes me heartsore.

Hello my dear Buffistas. I‘m still around most days, lurking because our schedules don‘t really align. So I know the news even when I would rather not.

What a year, my goodness.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am not sure if my memory is correct, but I feel like Ed was close to real old school Buffistas like Betsy and Michelle Tepper and Theresa W. Also pretty close to Holli. Also has anyone reached out to Tom Krueger about either sad news. I can’t seem to get back to the list Cindy created because of course I didn’t bookmark it.

My Maria has been reminded of the address. I am sure she would think of it because I talk about you all so much, but I am not sure she could find you. Although her brother is IT support at my work and could probably get my browsing history or break into my phone.

I told Holli about amyth, but I will follow up with more terrible news. I told shrift, of course.
