[What happened to all of the old familiar faces?]

Meh.

As everybody mentioned there have been several blows that made me all but lose interest in the game - which is sad considering I started playing when I was a mere neophyte.

The last blow, as dumb as it sounds, is I don't really like this formats for this board. The older ones where much better....eh, what are you gonna do.

I found it wholly depressing that George W. Bush left office.  Saddest day of my adult life.  Goodbye capitalism, goodbye unborn children, goodbye religious rights.  I want to cry.

I just had to come out of a sort of retirement to lol at this.
