  Hello Everybody!

     Hello!

     Greetings from Sheboygan - I am (for the moment) on AOL, with a screen

     name of JohnGorno (I'm not sure what the deal is header-wise, yet...),
     so

     expect a few experimental postings for now. Not a whole lot new with

     me...continuing my self-education, computer-wise; screwing around with
     GR

     (it turns out to be another subject that is so built up in the
     explanation

     as to make the simple facts inpenetrable, and I'm not just bs'ing).
     Still

     working on 21C. Finally over my Post-Forever Knight depression: what a

     great episode. Tragic but great. Poor Nat: he never even told her he

     loved her. My brother, equally bummed, thinks she's a lousy actress, but

     I think she nicely does the most demanding character: Natalie has a

     consistent, complex personality, with a surface layer of cheer over a
     thin

     strata of professionalism, over a chasm of despair. And cute, too.

     Anyway, this message is just a test, mostly. Our little newsgroup seems
     a

     little sleepy... and the Web site kind of stinks. I am wondering if I
     can

     use all these free offers from AOL, etc., sequentially, so I don't have
     to

     pay anything for the next few months (they probably have some system to

     prevent this, but I could quit (How Do I do this?), then alternate these

     with other providers' offers). Also wondering if I can use the offers

     sent to my Mom (I suspect they don't keep track of or care about who
     uses

     an offer).

     Ok, so fine.

     AROOO!

     MERDE! MON DIEU!! (SHIT! JE-SUS!!)

     P.S. - Those bastards cancelled SPACE: I _will_ kill them! (Forumites

     probably prefer Wimp Trek, since it's not so scary...) Risking the ship

     to SAVE a space ameoba! They really try to invert the exploration

     philosophy of the real show.

         The only thing SAaB had going for it is/was some good dramatic
         writing. It

         kept my interest for a few episodes, which is saying a lot. But
         everything

         Farrel said is true, so good riddance, hahaha! READ A BOOK! READ A
         BOOK!

         ^^^^^^^^

         Isn't that more correctly, "My Lord"?

         And there was much rejoicing!

         SAaB really sucked the big one...inaccurate science, uniforms and

         gear from the 20th century, and a somewhat racist overtone in
         regards to

         aliens. I am quite happy it is dead.

         Huzzah and welcome!

         >Still working on 21C.

         TWENTY FIRST CENTURYYYY!

         Not a great actress, but 'lousy' is a bit strong. Did you get the
         last couple

         of episodes on tape? As I mentioned, I lost track of 'Nick' over the
         last

         several weeks.

         >And cute, too.

         I'd buy THAT for a dollar!

         Activity here comes and goes...now that school's out I expect
         activity will

         drop down a bit. The Web CAN stink, especially if you have a slow
         modem (what

         speed are you using?). But sometimes it's really neat too (i.e. I
         downloaded

         an HST image of the comet only hours after it was taken).

         SPACE often failed to hold my attention, though they _did_ have very
         well done

         aliens (scary!).
