I have actually kind of taken a break from Flash right now. Aside from my recent entry #5 in the contest I have done nothing in Flash.
As for the board being quiet, yes it has. No one seems to be posting anymore. Could it be that no one has any questions about Flash!!! Nah, doubt that:P
What have you been up to!?š

I went up to Rhode Island this past weekend. Been sleeping most of the day. Iāll be back this week in force, as Iāve taken the rest of the week off for Vacation.

Well, Iām trying to accomplish 3 things at the same time: start to work for my exams (failed), tried to start my Flash site (failed) and tried to make that darn grid work (kinda failed). Itās been a great day. Fortunately, Iāve played a wonderful Lost Temple with the Protoss.
Oh, and Iām enjoying Nutella on bread right now, itās just delicious š

I can relate to the failing in Flash part. That is why I decided to take a break from using it for a while. I find that if I take a break it gives me time to refresh and somewhat start over.
Sorry to hear about the failed things though:(
MMMMMMM Nutella on breadā¦waitā¦what is Nutella?

Iāve been in lurk mode lately. I am still checking in here everyā¦ oh, few minutes or so. I just donāt have much to reply to the recent threads, nor do I really have any thoughts on starting a new threadā¦ maybe later.

ā¦also, I just ate an antā¦ I think. This is the second instance of accidental bug consumation at work. We had this ant problem a while back, but that didnāt stop me from having a cup of hot cocoa. After thoughtlessly sipping from my mug, about halfway through the drink I notice the corpe of an ant floating among the marshmallows. Now, it is highly likely that this ant had a few friends join him in the hot tub that is my hot cocoa and I ate them. So I guess, Iām not 100% sure whether or not I actually ate any ants, but I did, indeed, drink fluid with at least one ant swishing in it with his bodily juices and all. Needless to say, I didnāt imbibe anything from the kitchen for the rest of the day.
That is all. I know it has nothing to do with the events/topics discussed previously, but this is a random forum, is it not?

Umā¦ewā¦
This brings us to the useless statistic that the average human being will consume at least 8 spiders in their lifetime while sleeping.

Thereās no shame in copying! š
As long as itās not a direct copyā¦ itās just like having your own personal avatar, many on this forum has their own avatar, I just have a footer that matches! š
Itās an idea others can have some fun working with themselvesā¦
