Mods, admins:

Idle curiousity here: have you guys ever met IRL? Y’all have annual Creative Teamwork retreats in the Rockies?

Sorta kinda. We do get together every now and then, on an irregular basis. It’s hard to get a majority of us all in one place at one time.

And no matter what anyone else says, I was NOT involved in the strip air hockey game. That was TubaDiva. _I_ had already gone to my room. By myself, I didn’t have Jill’s goat with me!

Every year, it plays out thus…

**Tveblen** : When shall we staff meet again? In America, Holland or Spain?

**TubaDiva** : When moving of threads is done, pit battles lost and won.

**Coldfire** : That will be ere never and none.

**Tveblen** : Where’s the place?

**TubaDiva** : Upon the beach

**Coldfire** : There to meet with Cecil

**Tveblen** : I come SarkMerlin!

**TubaDiva** : Paternaljack calls.

**Coldfire** : Anon

**ALL** : Fair is foul, and foul is fair; socks and trolls and jerks beware.

And then they all go and get drunk.
