With the school year drawing to a close, as has happened in the past, the board slows down as people actually, you know, go outside and shit. Invariably, the habit of visiting the site is broken and some people simply don't return in the fall.
The question is, then, will that happen this summer? With our low population, can it even happen? Can we get even slower without effectively ceasing to exist? Another consideration: The average age of the members has, shockingly, risen, so that many people (myself included) are just workin' stiffs year 'round, jus' tryin'a make a livin'.
Uh, sorry. I've had that Xzibit song rolling around in my head all day.
Anyway, I think we'll get a little but slower, but not by much. I think we've hit a bottoming-out point right now, so the membership should remain fairly steady for the forseeable future. What do yooouuuuuu think?

I'll probably start showing up some more over the summer. I've been without internet of my own for awhile and I'm just now getting it back. We'll see. I still read the boards every day regardless.

It aint like I post much anyway.

Bloodsage's fortune cookie read:
Hell, I posted with my phone from Viet-fucking-nam, so you know I'll be around even though I'll be moving again this summer. Although I can see being here a lot less in the future as professional obligations mount further. Most of the time I've been here, I've been in one school or another, and had plenty of free time.
Tell us about the war, brother.

You weren't there, man, you just can't know.
Edit: though, after looking at the jungled hills not too far from Da Nang, and taking a river cruise in the Mekong Delta, my fuckin' hat's off to anyone who had to live that shit. Bloodsage fucked around with this message on 05-02-2007 at 03:44 PM.

Shitting outside just feels much better than shitting on a toilet. 
I'm taking two summer courses, but they shouldn't eat up too much of my time. Hell, I start next week, and the easier of the two courses ends on the 30th, with the final on June 1st. Past that, I have no clue what I'll be doing, but it'll probably involve booze and/or video games.
