   Just a dab o' lurking, that's all. First time in a very long time I've   
   had a vacation from both jobs in the *same week*, so that allowed me   
   time to check in on some of the old sites, and maybe see a few   
   long-lost friends.   
      
   Damn, it was great to see your crazy-assed sig. Brought back some good   
   memories, that did..!!

   Nah, I didn't get the chance to see that one; I finally got my news   
   reader to behave correctly for the first time in a while, so I'll try   
   to go back later on and catch up.

   Oh yeah, I did get a e-mail back then from Shammie, just a few hours   
   after Steve's sister posted his passing to the NG-- I even got the   
   chance to sign Lawyer Lad's e-guestbook, too. (That was also one of   
   the few times which I came back- for a few days, anyway- to post and   
   receive a few comments on the NGs so I could get caught up to speed on   
   things going on at the time.) But since then, I haven't heard or seen   
   much from Ms. Shamira at all.   
      
   If memory serves, I think I remember Tool Mama a-blazing out in full   
   view of the NG at one point. Did anything else happen to her after   
   that..?   
      
   I also got a nice couple of .jpegs from Mic and Gordon after they tied   
   the knot, and once again after the kid was born.  And I *just* saw   
   Gisele again over in the BSG group; we were able to re-connect just a   
   few months back, so that was a great moment for me as well.   
      
   But that's been about it, as far as my contacts with the old gang   
   goes. I'll take your advice, Merrick, and look around for Nat, too..!
