Still Alive

Sorry folks. I've been under the radar for about a month and a half. Part of it was due to a "transitional period" I was undergoing. Part of it was due to the fact that I still don't have an Internet connection in the new place. I can only post from work and I've been very busy.

The new place is working out well, although the lack of direct sunlight can be problematic at times. Now that Autumn is beginning to stick her frosty, multi-hued face into these summer days, we'll see if The Bunker can retain heat through the winter.

New things:

1) I've had to disable the Booklist due to hosting issues. Most of my files were on the space provided by my Earthlink account. I'm no longer an Earthlink customer so both my webspace and Earthlink email account no longer exist.

2) Any and all D&D fans/ex-players/Lord of the Rings fans out there are hear-by commanded to click the following link: The DM of the Rings.

3) There is no number 3.

That is all. I'm still alive and hope to see some of you soon.
