Just figured I'd introduce myself to everyone here. My name is Quaxo and I like long walks in the rain...oh wait wrong site. But yes, I have been directed here by my friend Annacat (though I'm sure she'll deny all knowledge of me after I poison her with my horrible muffins Wink ) who first introduced me to the Myst game and all its incarnations. I've been in the cavern since it re-opened...and I don't suppose there is too much else to tell. I've been lurking here for a couple of days and got up the nerve to register, so here I am. Wink *waves*

Quaxo! Hello! Welcome to the Great Tree. I believe we met once in the Cavern. It's nice to see you here. Any friend of Annacat's is a friend of ours.

Welcome Quaxo! Sounds like you'll fit in here perfectly. Very Happy Psst... Annacat reads these forums, so you might want to ix-nay on the oison-pay.

Oh, and as initiation to be a forum member, you have to post something completely random in the myst game6 thread!

*Anna Catherine is unable to post as she is dead from the effects of cyanide-filled muffins.*

Seriously, the muffins were good. You're such a perfectionist. I enjoyed them. I ate three, if you recall.

And I'm glad you finally decided to come say hi to us. I think you will enjoy the group. Smile

Hugs,
Annacat

Thank-you for your welcomes and friendly banter! Yes Professor, I do believe I remember meeting you as well - here's hoping for many more run-ins with you and everyone else here in the near future!

Moiety Jean...that's a good name for an archnemesis... Wink

And for the record, I am quite fond of the classics. *adjusts the box filled with copies of Dickens' and the Bronte's works sitting over the front door*

I'm pretty sure you're talking to Rils, but just to make sure things are clear, I don't actually know that much Spanish. I know a few phrases, some songs and I can usually translate from Spanish into English by some fluke of nature. Probably not a liver fluke, but some rare Indonesian deep-water rift fluke, I think. I don't even have my Spanish dictionary here, or I would have offered services after seeing you were needing a translator (at the end of the last episode). So Rils...what's your story there, hmmm? Step on up to the plate now, before the potatoes and gravy get cold...

Where oh where is my hamster?

It was the best hamster I ever had, Quaxo!

I was convinced I had left it in my pocket, but alas it appears to be missing. Perhaps it has run away to find itself, as Thoreau did!

Quote:

The hamster has sent a postcard from Graceland saying he is alive and well and listening to The King, Rils!



As you can see, this could be considered a "rough translation." Razz
