just a heads-up for my fellow gamers: in about 24 hours i'll begin travelling to visit family and friends back in the states for the holidays until january 7th. during that time my internet access will be sporadic, at best. [i know, for example, that my parents have cancelled their internet service.] i've asked dirigible to go ahead and make appropriate actions [and snide comments, of course] for gavyn when i cannot do so myself. i'll try to check in and post when i can, but i'd be surprised if that turns out to be more than a handful of times over those dates.
in any event, happy holidays all and happy gaming!
