A (Very Brief) Tale of Two ForumsI just tried to take a peek at the MUFON forum and to my total surprise I discovered that...it's gone! Well...it's not actually a total surprise. I spoke with the admin over there a while back and he told me they were thinking about shutting it down and replacing it with a new one. (that would be the fourth one I believe...I'm starting to lose count ) I'm still not a hundred percent certain that it has been canceled since I only tried looking at it just now. I know it was there a few days ago so maybe they are just having technical difficulties or something. Probably..."or something." Our forum on the other hand appears to be doing pretty well in comparison. We just recently passed our two year anniversary and are now starting on our third. It is kind of amazing that it has been that long. It seems like just yesterday that I was just some crazy nut who didn't know a thing about computers and now...oh, wait a minute...that was yesterday. I guess time flies when you are having fun. I just wanna say thanks to everybody for taking the time to be here and making this the wonderful little place that it is. Hopefully we will have many more years to come.

Sky, I was able to access the Mufon Forum today. I saw your post dated 12/17. The last post made on the forum was 12/18.....

I still can't get on it. Maybe it's just my computer or something. Or maybe Swampy has some super-sophisticated computer that allows him to access websites that nobody else can see. Of course I don't really have any burning desire to go to the MUFON forum. It seems like every time I have gotten on that forum recently I end up getting some kind of a virus or something.

My bleeping computer died. I may not be on for a few days till I can get the blankety-blank thing fixed...or until I win the lottery so I can buy another new one. Stupid computer! ( )

I'm back. I bought a new (cheap) computer to use till I can attempt to get the other one fixed. This will be my third puter in the past six months. Anybody wanna bet on how long it lasts? Six months? A year? One day?

Hi everybody! I'm back. I've been having problems with my computer so I haven't been able to come here much. Skywalker is helping me fix it but since he has had so many problems with his own computers lately I don't know if I should thank him or not. We'll see if it works when he gets done then I'll decide.

casper .. welcome. It is so nice to hear from you. When people do not show up for awhile I start getting frantic. I usually ask sky. Where did so and so go? Some times he knows but some times he does not.. Maybe I expect too much from him. But I never take it for granted. I appreciate all his does. Steve has been gone way too long. I wish that book would get done. ;D My computer is on the brink also. It may be just a matter of days. Hope your computer will be fine.

Thanks Lois. It kinda sucks to not have a computer. I can't read about ghosts if there is nothing to read. Skywalker said he can't fix my computer yet. He said the technical term for what is wrong with it is that it is a "stupid piece of *bleeping* *bleep*." I bet he had to go to a computer college to learn that. ;D He said he's going to give me one of his computers to use until he can get mine fixed. That's pretty nice of him. Skywalker can be a cool dude every now and then. ;D

The guy in the truck that is parked next to me is yelling and screaming at his computer too. These computer viruses must be contagious. ;D

Today I am going to write about something other than my bleeping computer dying. This has got to be a first. I ran a 15k race today which is just over 9 miles. This is the first race I have ran since I broke my leg two years ago and had a bunch of other injuries last year. I have only been seriously running since the beginning of January so I thought I was going to die. It actually went pretty well though. I managed to finish the race running strong and had a halfway decent time. Not bad at all. After that some of my friends and I went to a bar in Dallas to have a few cold beers and while we were there we met Jason Garrett, the coach of the Dallas Cowboys. I thought that was kind of cool. I've been a Cowboy fan all my life and I have to admit I didn't even recognize the dude( ) but it was still kind of cool. I should get out and do stuff like this more often. Next month I'm going to run a half-marathon. Maybe then I will die.

Whether or not I die will depend on what kind of shape I happen to be in when the race gets here. We'll see how it goes.

Yeah, I broke my stupid leg a couple of years ago. I was out running one night and stepped on a rock or something and POW!! Broken ankle. I actually heard the bone make a cracking sound when it broke. Definitely uncool. Luckily I managed to limp my way to a Hooters restaurant that was about a half mile away where I proceeded to down large amounts of cold beer to help deaden the pain. Last year I had a rash of minor injuries that wouldn't heal because every time I would do any type of exercise it would just aggravate them all over again. I finally had to quite running for several months to give myself time to recover. It just about drove me nuts but I'm back at it now. I just need time to get back in shape. I'm still not there yet but working on it. I'm planning on doing a half-marathon (13 miles) next month and maybe another in April and then I will start training for a full one. I am definitely planning on doing one at the end of the year in December but might do another one before then. It just depends on how my training is going and whether old age and stupidity decide to raise their ugly heads again.

well, broken ankle can be worse than a "leg", . Sure sorry you had to go through this . Awesome that you are making it back up! Thanks for telling me about this. If you can overcome age (cough) and injury, I can try to do the same.
