MY AWAY MESSAGE:
Exploring Middle Earth with Mr. Frodo.
Should be back before second breakfast.  But just leave a note with Fatty Bolger and he'll see that I get it!
THE REPLY:
Lillie: Hello there, Mr. Bolger.  Do let Christadelle du Pradon know I wish to speak with her!  It seems that the Mystical Chinchilla has at last recorded our songs onto her computer, but cannot find a place to host them.  Would Christadelle happen to know of such a place?
(Heehee.  Hiya!)

A Buddy's AWAY MESSAGE

 

Me (1:57:53 AM): lol, dude, I'm actually thinking about studying
Mark (1:58:00 AM): lol
Mark (1:58:20 AM): well, almost doesn't count, unless it has to do with horseshoes, hand grenades, or nuclear weapons

...

Mark (2:01:58 AM): of course, almost thinking about something is a few steps away; now you have to think about it, and then you have to almost do it, and then finally do it

 

Me (11:02:33 PM): I think i'm gonna head out for real now

Lillie (11:02:41 PM): Okay.

Lillie (11:02:45 PM): Have fun for real now!

 

Nathan (11:31:05 PM): ok the other day on the news they were like "people have been recently calling us wanting to know about a ball of fire that fell through the sky earlier today.  It is believed to be either a meteorite or a comet that entered the atmosphere but we're not sure"
Me (11:31:24 PM): whoa
Nathan (11:31:29 PM): I was like "I hope they would know where any approaching comets are!"
Me (11:31:41 PM): YEAH!
Nathan (11:31:46 PM): that's important!!!
Nathan (11:31:57 PM): just a little!

Nathan (11:32:51 PM): next thing you know like... half of the earth will be missing when we wake up and they'll be like "...... we're thinking it may have been a collision with a planet."
