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: [QM] Deeper and deeper we delve....

My parents went on holiday during the christmas season a couple of times. :) If you go to Andorra you won't need to make reservations for the second day of Christmas (which you would need to do in the Netherlands, as that is also a holiday here). Also, they don't have fireworks on New Year's Eve. (Which we do, at midnight.)

Re: [QM] Deeper and deeper we delve....

I am well, Lunar. Normal Christmas-y stress. And birthday stress and stress stress.

I need a holiday. :oP

Trying to keep calm.

All is calm, all is bright!


Someday will find you.

Re: [QM] Deeper and deeper we delve....

Although, now that I think of it, both Cyan and I would be golds.

ETA: Are we talking about the same thing? McCaffrey's Dragonriders?

*shares cookie with Em*

In that case, I'm most definitely a blue.  I think.  What's distinctive about the blue ones?
