I would flare at that, but I prefer to maintain my current obliquity.

Oh, so that's what you call it these days?

Are you hinting that you are perturbed by my ascent?

I think it's just your period.

You just won't admit that you are outclast, will you?

I've node it for some time.

Well, that's just tuff for you, isn't it?  I take no umbra in those situations and neither should you.

Mods, why is this thread still marked as a sticky?  Let it grow old and die with dignity.

Hmmm.  Has any thread become unsticky?  Is sticky a one-way process only?

My major indulgence is playing Wizard 101, both with my kids and without.  It's great to be a Grandmaster Balance Wizard in at least one part of my life :)!
