No worries :)

It's a "floatie" - click on it and hope for curses!

What I didn't know was that only one person can get it at any one time, and you're competing with everyone on the board for one single nose, I guess.

That is funny. I got cures instead of curses though. Fine by me. I don't want to be cursed even if the curses are supposed to be good on this board.

I like your drawings MagnusTrask. No DS stuff though? You got a style like Andrew Loomis. Cool.

Thamks very much!  I'm insecure, so I need this!    May I refer to you as Count Chocula?  Probably not!

Link to Andrew Loomis?  Anyway, drawing is murder on my nervous systyem-- I just wreaked havoc on eyes/NS with a few days of progress on another Leela drawing (but not enough, so after all that, I have to just puit it away again and it can't be shown to anyone).    So, I have saved a few DS photos to draw from, but who knows when it'll happen?   I could use more of Marie Wallace.   Someone's helping me get a scanner, but I think my computer lacks a file to hook one up... too many problems in my current state.  But I have a modest backlog of unposted drawings from over the years now... no Ds yet though.

Thanks Chocula!    Hearing Loomis, I thought, DS fan, of course.  He was born around the same time as my grandmother though. 

Definitely something to shoot for.    I never thought teaching drawing was possible through books, but his might be exceptions.

I missed the nose this year.  I had a feeling it was going to be next up.  If memory serves, it marks that infamous day when John Yeagar's nose began to fall off in mid-sentence.

Ah, the glories of DS!  I'm glad that our fandom is small and intimate enough that we are in no danger of having our so very "special" original FX replaced by some ghastly 21st century crapola CGI, as I hear is happening with all the original episodes of Star Trek.
