hehe, Treydog is working on the last part as we speak, once it's done and corrected and all, and I've put the parts together (shouldn't take more then hour) I'll start posting. So bare with me for a little while longer if you will

On another note though, I've finishing the story that will come after this one, and it's.. different to say the least. I hope it will be enjoyable in itself but it's quite different from the previous two. Can't say too much though, wouldn't want to spoil anything

Can't wait

I'm loving the light here. It's so dark in the middle of the winter I never see the sun but its light as walk to uni now and normally light when I leave again. I like light, it makes the cold seem ok.

Minque, is your PM Inbox full?

Minque, is your PM Inbox full?

oh i hope not!
I'll check

[stargelman]

Considering global moderators can store 50000 messages in their inboxes, that seems unlikely - though not impossible

[minque]

Uhhh ok....that's interesting, I think I'll probably reach that limit one day....

[minque]

Sorry for double posting but I just want you all to know that early this morning there was a fatal accident at my power plant.
A man aged 60 was using a hydraulic tool, when suddenly a part of it came loose and hit the man in his chest. The impact was so big that he flew away against a railing anf fell over it and down several meters. In the fall his head was injured.

The man is dead, the police is investigating.....we'll yet have to see what the actual cause of death was.

I'm telling this so you know because I might not be online so much this coming week!

[redsrock]

That's awful, Minque. Such a freak accident...

[Illydoor]

Did you actually see the accident minque? sounds horrific :S...

What hydraulic tool was it and how big was the part if it made him fly back?

No I did not see the accident, just pics of where it happened, there was blood, much blood. And the police hasn't completed their invest, and neither is the authopsy done yet, so we don't actually know very much. His colleagues are devastated and they were not working today... The whole plant is kinda shocked, you know we sort of have a sad history it's like this:

in 1979 there was an accident at unit 1, a man fell down in the cavity under the reactor, and died instantly

in 1989 there was an accident at unit 2, a man got a steel plate in his head falling from 15 metres, it cut off a third of his head, he died of course!

in 1999 there was another accident at unit 2, an electrician was about to show a younger colleague their task and pointed at an electrical strip which wasn't supposed to have any current...well it contained 20 000 volts, so there was an arch of electricity from the strip to the man's hand...he was fried immediately

So you see it's kinda spooky....

Jeez, well I hope you work at Unit 3 (if there is one). At least there hasn't been any fatal accidents there.

[minque]

well the last one which I described some posts ago was actually on unit 3!!! MY unit! So the terrible history is that every tenth year ..ending with a 9 is fatal for us.

I just interviewed for a botanist job based out of Moab, Utah, which I really, really want. I love that whole area, so I'd pretty much be in heaven if I get it.

I've heard some good things about Moab, never been there myself though but I am sure I'll get there someday. I live near-ish there now, in Durango, Colorado.

Yeah, Moab's pretty nice. I've been there a couple of times before, and if I get the job (I should here something on or around Wednesday) I'd be working all over the northern Colorado plateau--between Zion National Park and Black Canyon of the Gunnison.

Only been to Durango once, but I seem to recall it being pretty nice. Pretty country around there.

Jesus, Minque. Get a new job or retire before 2019.

[Lord Revan]

Dang, that was a lot of catching up on lost time. *deep breath*
Hello everyone, it feels like forever since I've been here.

@ Minque, that's pretty disturbing. At least all the hapless victims have been men, hopefully you're excempt.

I wish I could speak with some kind of experience on being unemployed, but I haven't even started my 1st job yet. I'll pray for you all (Ibis, Canis, and everyone not on this page). As for the weather...... last week it poured for three days straight. Rain isn't so bad, but I just don't like being in it.

[The Metal Mallet]

Yea, I basically express the same sentiments as milanius , minque, retire before 2019.

I tried the demo but couldn't get into the combat, which was a shame for me because the non linear nature of the game appealed to me.

[Bolzmania]

Haha Milanius. Your post was #1337 in this thread. I couldn't resist! Any person on the internet should know what 1337 means.. If not, google it.

Is there a link Alexander? I may read it too. I need more dinnertime reading material.
