Everything Changes
A Good Day for Jack Bauer
Well, as some of you are aware, I have been occasionally lurking on the site. The lurking has consisted of checking my mod queue and moving on to other things. My total computer time on most days is 10 minutes or less and TV.Com has been getting just a passing glance. Saturday, I checked my queue and it was overloaded with submissions for Kiefer Sutherland. I went through those as per my duty as editor. All of the submissions enabled this person to overtake the editorship. Best wishes to MrOzzy on the guide. I am sure the guide will now receive the attention it deserves.
My Time
Since my time is limited, I have been mostly checking sites for information on the shows that I watch. This means I have been using the sites as sources of information only. Sadly, my time as a member of the community is almost zero.
Did I miss my opportunity?
Did I miss my opportunity to say goodbye to the Links Union? Somehow, all the old blogs disappeared along the way. Also, the blue boxies have been put out to pasture. They have vastly improved the whole icon thing from the looks of it. Wasn’t the whole point of the blue boxies that the users wanted more than the site was offering? Apparently, they got the message and improved. This is always nice to see.

Where to from here?
Now that I am one guide down, I have one less reason to visit the site. As time goes along, I would like to come back by and say hello, however.
I hope that everyone is doing well, and I wish everyone the best.

Yes, the blue boxies became a little irrelevant (they listened and added most of it to the site), but I still use mine as a place holder in time, instead of informing people of where I'm at. To a vastly lesser extent, the CotBB will live ... a limpin life, but it will live.
Thanks for the history. I don't know where your blog entries went, although most people still have their full history. Sometimes you just have to advance yourself to the next page (a nice bug).
Oh, you didn't miss the bug-fest though. It's still on-going.
Untill next time :-)
If it's not tooo hard, I'm sure everyone(myself included) would be glad to hear from you, from time to time.
Hugs, Mary
Please come by just to say hi! It is always nice to hear from you! Hope your famiy is well!

Hugs to the family!
Lately, I've come across your blogs again. They were always an invention, and they will always be. I saw you online from time to time, but didn't understand quite why you weren't writing.
You are missed, no doubt. But I hope, and I'm happy that you enjoy your life. Just don't forget us!

Hope to see you around :-)
I don't blog much myself anymore. There's always something shiny to do in the real world. I just try to pop in from time to time to let my friends know I'm still alive.
Stop in whenever you can. We're always glad to hear from you.
You & your brother were the first two people who ever responded to my blog. If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have met the wonderful people that I have here. I hope you continue to blop on in an say Hello!
Miss you!
