It is about 13:30 here in the Philippines. There is a thunderstorm outside. I am using a mobile hot spot to connect because the Internet service we requested two weeks ago still has not been made.

Facebook locked me out under the assumption that I was a foreign hacker. :roll:

My private email account is still active (and full of spam).

We had to give Naia to a trusted relative (she has adjusted well), but now we have FIVE black cats hanging around the farmhouse.

We are all healthy and reasonably happy.

I see little has changed on WP - same old people posting the same old gripes.

Take care, all!

PM me if you need a VPN with an IP in the states for account recovery purposes if it comes to that.

Good to see you're well.

You should post to the "WP Members You Miss?" thread since people keep asking what happened to you there. Even though I've posted an explanation several times:

That is strange . . . No one has sent a PM asking me where I have gone.

Not even the mods.


:(

If you have left this forum, chances are you will never be back and open the PM.

Which begs the question, are you respected or just feared? :wink: :lol:

Hi :)

I assumed you were moving, too busy to post.
Should I have worried? It looks you're doing fine :)

Well you may not believe it, but I'd considered doing this today - just an "Are you Ok out there?" catch-up PM. :lol:
Welcome back, and I'm happy to see you've arrived safely and settling in Ok.

Hehe, The Fact That my Wife is Half
Pacific Islander Is Enough Of The
Philippines In The United States for me
As i’ve Learned to assimilate Wherever

i Am To See The Grass Only Really Gets
Greener Within. It’s Like A New Car,
When The Newness Fades Away
You are Faced With The Same
Driver, Hehe; Although It’s
True There Are Much More
Intelligent Places To Live Cheaper
Than Equivalent “Decent” Areas to
Live in California And Even More
Beautiful like The Emerald Gulf
Coast, IF You Can Politically Hold
Your Nose Where Matt Gaetz And
DeSaTaNiS Rules; And Where TRump
Roosts Too Of Course Further South.

Anyway, For What It’s Worth, The
“Wrong Planet” Doesn’t Quite Feel
Like The “Wrong Planet” Without
You; It’s Like Some Theories In

Quantum Mechanics That Suggest
The Greatest Creativity of Newer
UNiVeRSES Springs From Forces
Of Torsion And Spin; Yes, In Black
Holes Where a Fine Balance Of

Both Forces Resurrect Existence

More. So, in Other Words,
a Metasyntactic Variable Is
Literally A Requirement Now

As An Ingredient For Existence.

Welcome Back Fnord, And Intuitively,

Eventually i Expect A Return to “The
States” As Even Filipino Men i
Know Who Went Back After
They Retired Then From The
Military Returned To Home
Sweet Home in “Kansas,”

Finding The Grass Is only
Greener Within Wherever
Ya Go To Find It For Real

Yet Of Course that’s my View..:)

I thought you were having a good time with the lovely wife and just too busy enjoying life to post.

Well, still good to hear you're doing well! :lol:
