Bhang Bhang Duc Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Low activity over the next week or so. Work trip to France immediately followed by a long weekend away to see the family, especially my lovely granddaughters. Will try and pop in if I can.

Karland Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Important note: Members of the RA are reminded that this thread is to be used to notify your fellow members of any extended leaves/absences you may have to take. It's not permission, just an obligation. As a rule of thumb, it would be appreciated if you posted here if you're connection/activity will be hectic due to RL, going to be away for at least a week and/or will be missing the next Roll Call(s). Alternatively for the latter shoot a PM to myself or whoever is the Speaker at the time. Of course, feel free to inform us about any nice holidays/weekends away, and don't forget to tell us what you'll be bringing back for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westwind Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 And speaking of absences, I will be travelling for a week starting tomorrow. Expect me to be scarce on the forum (if at all), though I will be checking daily ingame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westwind Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 Alright, time for me to turn off the computer and get ready to get through the snow to the airport. Be good to each other... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediobogdum Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 So, who is now in charge - do we have a triumvirate, an oligarchy, or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westwind Posted March 1, 2014 Author Share Posted March 1, 2014 I travelled to Seattle, leaving the falling snow behind as a winter storm was arriving at home. Had to remove eight inches of snow from my car before heading to the airport. Then we were delayed, as they had to deice the plane twice before we left. Arrived in the rain of Seattle, ducking under the clouds before landing as the emerald green of Western Washington was below. Flowers blooming, cheer blossoms beginning to unfold. New shoots beginning to grow on rose bushes. On my return, minutes before boarding the plane to come home, they announced "Passengers should be aware that a 'Weather Warn' has been issued for all airports in Montana, if the flight cannot land, it will be returning to Seattle". I boarded anyway. The first airport we landed at in Montana was fine. Yes, it was snowing, the wind blowing, drifts creeping out into the runway. And we were delayed again with more deicing. Then the flight to home, where it was said to be "ugly". The flight was fine until landing, which was a roller coaster ride, and the plane was lifted and pushed side to side, right until touchdown. I expected they'd have to try again, but they made it down. The runway covered in snow, drifts across the runway. My car in the airport parking lot covered in a fresh 15 inches of snow that I had to dig out at 1am, and then rock my car back and forth to get it out of the parking spot, surrounded by snow up to the car doors. The good news was, a neighbor had plowed out my driveway while I was gone. Since getting home, there's been another eight inches of snow, and the temps are expected to be 30F below tonight. It didn't seem right, flipping the calendar on the wall over to March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulcan Prime Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 It was -40F in Stony Rapids, Canada in January. People were still going about their normal day too. I think Mother Nature has decided to have a good laugh at the people who made global warming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, this week a couple of days in Belgium (swodding Belgium man) and next week three days in Italy. Will pop in when I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westwind Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 Have safe travels -40F for a day would actually be a good thing here, it would kill off all the bark beetles that are killing our forests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcan Prime Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 -40F would not be good here. Just look at how we reacted to 10F with one inch of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westwind Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 Speaker Karland has notified me that he will not be able to have access to the forums this week. He as asked me to complete his duties as Speaker until the next Speaker is elected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karland Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 In case someone might suspect a coup, I'll post here confirming the above. As of right now I'll be away and won't be able to fulfill the last of my duties of this term. West is named Deputy Speaker and will finish up what I started until my successor takes the role.
