Tad Williams' Message Board

Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies -- 'God damn it, you've got to be kind.'
-    Kurt Vonnegut, 1922-2007

Welcome to the message board for tadwilliams.com. All comments are welcome, whether kudos or brickbats. However, please bear in mind that Tad would like this to be a friendly, civil message board, at least in the relations between users. We reserve the right to remove postings, or even ban postings, from anyone who crosses the boundary of reasonable taste. Basically, you can argue vigorously with someone, but watch your language, okay? We have a lot of young readers as well as grown-ups, so please show them some respect.

But the main requirement here is: have fun.

Re: Quillers Mint The Conservetory

Hello all (Marian, Shaddows & Ice, Tad, Treehouse, Wickedtribe, and all lurkers (and people I might have missed)).  I'm just dropping in briefly.  I've had a long day, and this is my short catch-up before I go to bed.

Oh, well, who needs sleep?  A six-thirty (am) shift isn't that early, is it?

Re: Quillers Mint The Conservetory

Hi Chucky and Boondocker.  I've been drafted into watching a lemur documentary with my son.  I'll have to postpone this round of mad frivolity until later on so I can spend some time bonding with the lad over Madagascan fauna.

Catch you all on the flipside...

Re: Quillers Mint The Conservetory

Five minutes of sleep?  No, no, I stay on the board until 6:10, bike to work, then sleep for two and a half hours until the shift is over.  All good!  (we're underpaid, and anyways, nobody ever drowns)

Hey, I just thought of something.  Are lemurs at all related to lemmings?

Re: Quillers Mint The Conservetory

Tschus, it is, but the U has an umlaut, so Tschues would be more accurate, I think. (Of course, I didn't know this offhand, just got a German dictionary today.)

Gut abgepasst sein!

Chucky, hi!

Tad, bye!

*sigh*

I'm really in the mood to curl up on the couch and read Yeats for a while. I think I'm going to vamoose, too.

Love ya,
Marian
