s@s, I don't quite know how to tell you this, but I have been having a real problem getting into this game.  Seems like I always join a party 'midstream' as it were, but this is different.  Something's just not clicking for me, and, to my great shame, I find myself almost wishing that Forivarra (or however I spelled his frickin' name) would become a casualty.  I'm hoping that just making this confession and clearing the air will go a long way toward exorcising these demons and that I can continue.  So ... anyway .... it is what it is and that's all that it is.  (No, I'm not Popeye the Sailor Man.)
