I second that!!!Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.
Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators, the creator seeks - those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest. - Thus spoke Zarathustra, Fredrick NietzscheComment

I'm psyched... just got 'Guardians' and 'Five Days in May' delivered!!
The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

Shouldn't you be in bed??
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

Shouldn't you? AFAIK, Antwerp is the same time zone

Hey Vel;
Get well and get out of that bed! I’ve got a 16 year old scotch guaranteed to put hair on your chest…which just may have to do for now.The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.

Ok, Ok. I couldn't stand it any longer. Some of you may remember a certain "Flirt Thread" that posted here on 'Poly a couple of years ago.
Anyway, point being, I could not let my "Flirt Buddy" lie in a hospital somewhere and not go see about him.
I saw Vel this week. I thought a bit of the old "flirt therapy" would perk him up a bit. He is doing better and is certainly still up to the flirting game. In fact, he should be going home in the next few days.
Just wanted to give everyone this little bit of good news from our Vel.

Good news indeed.
Which reminds me, there are a few new avatars to add to the collage. I´ll be updating the collage later today. If anyone wants to get in, now´s your chance.Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

Is it me or doesn't everyone's avator show up in this thread. I can't see MarkG's avatar for example. Or mine for that matter?...
