    Is that the new "Birds and Bees?"

    Indeed. Plas had everyone in TJ's van (aka, The Hami Express) in stitches with his incredible voice talent. Also, we realized that I can't repeat my "As Heard at HeroCon" thread this year, as many of this year's memorable quotes are not T for Teen.
  6. Red, thank you again for putting this together. You deserve every accolade bestowed upon you and then some.

    I think the PC term is "Pigpen mode enabled"

    Miss you all. Looking forward to next year.
    Goober was at HeroCon?
  9. Thank you guys! I can't believe I have two birthday threads.

    For one, you have to have Taunt. May sound obvious, but you'd be surprised.

    Second, you have to be able to pay attention and communicate effectively.

    Third, you need some mez protection, as Hami has a hell of a stun.

    Lastly, you need EoEs and a good support system.
  11. Happy Birthday to my original birthday twin! I hope it's fantastic.

    Skype......?

My friend and I use it when we duo and Skype is great for that, but the more people you add, the crazier it gets.

    I'd say try it. If you like it, it's absolutely worth the fee of $0.00. If you like the chat function but not Skype, you may at
    least learn it's worth while and decide to invest I'm a paid server for another chat system.
    I have found that if you adjust the output sensitivity, you can eliminate a lot of the ambient noise. Also, my headset has a great mute option I can easily hit if I need to sneeze, chew, or cuss dramatically. It's on my right ear, and easy enough to hit.

    I use Skype a lot, especially since my best friend is currently living in France. It sure beats those international call charges.

    No kidding! Plus, I didn't want to make HeroCon all about my birthday. I was just happy to be with everyone.
  15. Happy Belated Birthday Spyder!
  16. Yes, congrats on the trivia contest win, Mekk!

    Also, I must beg apologies from Wrong Number and FemFury for not extending my congratulations in my original post. I somehow missed your names and haven't been near a computer since to correct my oversight. You both also deserve a big congratulations for making it that far!
  17. The bacon waffles were, indeed, amazing. And I think I have to agree with Phantom that they were even tastier than last time, if such a thing is possible.

    And Manoa, I have a picture of you with your chocolate pancakes that is beyond cute.
  18. I am home as well. I'm tired, but I don't have to get up early so I'm trying to play catch up. Pictures are forthcoming.

    It was so wonderful to see you all again, and I miss you already.
  19. I share a birthday with Chloe AND Vest? Birthday Triplets FTW!

    Happy Birthday!

    P.S. Your daughter is gorgeous! Congratulations and thank you for sharing her pics with us!
    There was a baby that I missed, too?

    Now I'm really pissed.

    a special place with lots of sun for a furry little friend.

    with lots of food and water too, and a squirrel or two to chase.
    a beautiful spot this field of green, a perfect canine place.

    he plays in the grass, barks at the moon with lots of shoes to chew.
    he waits for a friend, one left behind, a man dressed all in blue.

    when finally that day comes at last, and you pass by that green place
    with fond memories of life-long love, a loyal friend awaits

    together you enter through those gates, that lead straight into heaven,
    with a smile on your face you key your mike, "Canine one, Ten-Seven."



    Note: 10-7 is our Police Code we use when we go "Out of Service" for the day i.e. "End of shift"
    Joe, I am so sorry for your loss, and wish Axel peace wherever he may be. I think this is a lovely poem, and I think his owner would be quite happy to have it. It reminds of Rainbow Bridge in a way.
