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.

QM - The Room with a View

Okay, I have sat staring at the blank screen trying to come up with something creative, but it's not happening.

Here's a room!

I know, Marian. I'll drink twice as much, just to balance it out!

Oh, my God, do I want a drink. Lots of drinks.

*sigh* But I figured out that if I saved money on just one bottle of cheap wine per week, I'd save $364 a year. So, no more cheap wine for me.

Cheap wine will get you through a time of no money better than a time of money will get you through a time of no wine.

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.  ;-)

In answer to your question, I found that the lovely lace pattern was lost in the black yarn.  And bf had been apologetic enough over the unintended destruction of the last thing I knitted for him that I decided to venture into socks.  And he asked very nicely.
