And all three of us (John, Wil and myself) have tossed the idea around more than once. After a conversation with Wil yesterday the seed had finally been planted.

There's a campaign brewing in the back of my mind, and it promises to be potent in its normalcy.

JuanVerdi tagged me with this. I'm supposed to mention 7 facts/quirks about myself then tag 7 other people. He tagged nearly my entire friends list, and anyone on my friends list he didn't tag is extremely unlikely to participate anyway. If you feel like meta-tagging yourself after reading this then go ahead (there's a rule prohibiting me from ( Read more... )

this is the empty space
this is our monument
a testament to our efforts
