Title: So did I miss much?
Post by: Floyd-the-k on 18 May, 2007, 02:41:38 PM
Hey there, an old poster returns!  Rather than announce yet again, that I was going to take time off from the board, I just took it, so I could get on with my study.  
  I've been studying, working like a bastard and not reading progs. I still get them, they're just queued up behind all my other subscriptions.  
   So what have I missed on the board in the last few months?  Anything interesting?

cheers,

Floyd

You should check out the "Writing to Tharg" thread under "Suggestions", Floyd.  More madness than you can shake a stick at.

Watch it Linton or you'll be seeing more stars than you have star letters! hee hee wouldn't be hard! Floyd is the letters poster boy and I'm sure he'll be by to grab the attention the way a a dingo grabs a baby.

Hey Floyd!

What's happenin' brah! My 'puters been infested with spyware! West side, ETC!

If you haven't read the end of Origins you should do so soon. I couldn't believe it when Dredd shot Wanda!

So what have you been studying?

Hi Floyd, I was actually reading the letters page this week and wondered where you'd got to. Welcome back!

hi Floyd, I'm still around here and still living in the West.  Hope your studying went well. how was that federal budget, more tax cuts(for comics) but our local hospital is still falling appart, typical.
Finally got to read Redson and enjoyed it alot, the best thing Mark Millar has ever written.

CU Radbacker
P.S. be over in Vic visiting me olds in August we should see if we can meet(if your still in Melbourne and I can get the car).

Good Lord, Brenda, come and have a look at this!  The colonials actually use the term "olds"!  Maybe they do call their children "Toadfish" after all?

Everyone else - nice to see y'all.
  I'm doing a Diploma of Education so that I can become a High School English teacher and work at Blue Water High.  Life's pretty good - I'm working my tail off teaching English as a Second Language, which is what I like to do.  Apart from that, I get out a bit, read a lot, exercise....the usual. I'm exercising great willpower and ignoring Melbourne's friendly libraries which all have Graphic Novels galore.
  Of course we say 'olds'. We also say 'root' and (less often) 'get a big black dog up ya'.
  I was sorry to hear about Bellardinelli.
 Gary's efforts inspired me to watch a little Neighbours, but I can only watch so much.  I am watching The Chaser, which is pretty funny.

cheers, nice to see you all again, as it were.
