    As for the 1/2 cloud... let's just say that perfection isn't a location, thus... Cloud 8-1/2. It's still a sweet place.
    Loved Poland and Prague, too bad they didn't have shows while I was living in Germany (didn't know about FPN or FPG back then otherwise I'd have gone to all of the European shows). Glad to hear you had a wonderful time.

    I need to win the lottery so I can indulge in my Nakaya-want. Until then I'll just have to drool, look at their website and add more of their pens to my want list.

    What hate? Who's hating FPN in this thread? I'm still waiting for FPN to come back up so I can see what's what and all that. Expressing joy over being HERE doesn't mean I'm happy FPN is down. Do you know how many friends I made because of FPN?! People in actual life?! So many! I don't hate FPN.

    okay, wrong words.

    I have the same thing happening in one of the other discussion boards that I regulary visit. In fact they use the "Dark Side" as well. There's quite a noticeable difference in posts and mod intervetion in each of those forums. Like just now, there is open chatter about the draconian rulings of mods and free ranging bannings of long time members there in my other forums.

    I recall reading a post on this forum about the new rules on FPN caused quite a bit of consternation amongst people, enough to openly comment (criticize???) about it.

    Oh yeah, plenty of emotional responses in other threads. In fact, I agree that it is shocking that three very kind, generous, not-boat-rocking members were banned (or temporarily suspended) without notice for asking questions. But I didn't say anything about that in this thread.

    Yes, criticism in other threads and strong emotions. People are upset about bad treatment. Not surprisingly.

    Still, I won't throw the baby out with the bath water. I'm... still waiting, collecting data, to measure out the result of the FPN meltdown.

    Just bought sepia samples from the Goulets about a half-hour ago -- for a friend. (No, really, they aren't for me. Why wouldn't you believe me?)

    The Noodler's Apache Sunset, THAT's for me.

    Also, hello, Annie! Nice to meet you.

    Hello ethernautrix,

    Nice to see you - and many other familiar names - over here. Looks like a good place.

    I liked your comment about not throwing the baby out with the bath water. Very apposite.

    Enjoy.

    Hi Lisa, it's good to see you on any forum, for the energy and happiness you bring, not to mention the dancing and the Nakayas.

    So, hello! Just wait 'til I figure out the threads and things. Hahaha.

    Nice. Feels good here.

    Cheers, Dan and Eric!
    13,000?!? Impressive!
