Lordmarcovan, where are you?

Have anyone heard from or seen Rob Shinnick recently?

I last received a Lord M. PM on April 9th.

He was posting on the MD forums on the 8th.

You know him, he's gonna show up one of these days in early am Eastern, will catch up and reply to 5-6 threads and I might even see his light on one morning when you guys are asleep and exchange a few PMs before work. He's the only member I can talk to live at these hours, ever since Jester has been domesticated.

Here I am, though not on the graveyard shift today (sorry Dimitri- I'll catch you later on in the week I guess). Been in Yetiland for almost two weeks. Had no idea that it had been almost two weeks. I knew I owed one person a package and had some PMs to answer, so I logged back on today. When I wander away from the Internet, I tend to do it completely. Still haven't checked email in probably a fortnight.

Hmm....how does that work exactly? I didn't realize this was even an option.



It's good to see you back!

Clarification: I meant when I wander away from this site (my primary Internet haunt), I tend to also wander away from email and everything else computer-related, for days or weeks on end. During these dormant phases, you'll usually find me nose-deep in an old fashioned printed book. I could survive quite well in Thoreau's 19th century log cabin, probably, if I had enough lamp oil and reading material. (And canned food, haha).

FilthyBroke

Yeah, just my somewhat feeble attempt at humor. I couldn't drop the computer or internet if I tried. Really, because I have, and it lasted maybe an afternoon.

lordmarcovan

Oh, I'd eventually go nuts without the 'Net, myself. I could only survive in that log cabin for about a month, I reckon.

SYRACUSIAN

Told ya. He's typing a PM as we speak.

Collectors Universe apparently has a pretty strong gravitational force. When I'm burned out on it I can break away for a while. Once I am outside the force field, I can even go Yeti for long periods of time, but when I eventually force myself to come back and do one simple thing like check my unanswered PMs, pretty soon I'm drawn back into orbit.
