[Zeke]

<p>For today's update, I've brought the main pages of our <a href="../thisjustin">This Just In</a> and <a href="../top10">Top 10</a> subsites up to date. Baby steps, people.

[Nate the Great]

Kudos, Z. I'm reminded of that mincing tip-toe scurry that cartoon characters sometimes do to imply that they're "stealth walking," a tactic that inevitably fails because the soundtrack plays a distinctive note for each step. :)

[Chancellor Valium]

Looking good, Z. ;)

[Derek]

Reread some of the top 10's, and couldn't help noticing #3 for "The Top 10 Christmas Presents for Enterprise Villains":

The Klingons: A revolutionary but ultimately temporary planetwide forehead-smoothing program

Is this one of those "life imitates parody" things?

[mudshark]

Does sort of look that way, doesn't it?

[Keab4247]

What! Zeke's not dead!

Is this the longest he's ever gone without an update?

How far can he stretch the definition of soon?

[Nate the Great]

Keab, stop pressing the issue. Please. Unless, that is, you care to convince me that scaring away Zeke is a good idea.

[Zeke]

OMG I AM SCARED AWAY SCREW YOU ALL

(Not really. But thanks, Nate.)

[Nate the Great]

No prob. After all, when I was a newbie around here I stepped on more than a few toes. Consider it a public service to try to prevent the same from happening to anyone else.

[Keab4247]

Terribly sorry. I was attempting to display my pleasure at Zeke's return.

I fully understand his reasons for being absent and am glad that he is now able to return us.

[Nate the Great]

I'm hesitant to make a "aw man, you just jinxed us!" gag, so you can insert it at your leisure. :)

[Kristina]

No, no.

My screen saver at work says "EXPECTO PATRONUM!"; it's an absolute necessity. Enough said.

Welcome back, Zeke - and a somewhat belated Happy New Year to one and all! (If you look at it by elapsed percentage, it's still new.)

Terribly sorry. I was attempting to display my pleasure at Zeke's return.
I like to do it by wearing hotpants. Or at least, making a fictional counterpart wear them, which is really the next best thing.
