Actually, "Where have you been?" is a good question. Seems like very, very few are posting anything. Has everyone given up on Pixies? Is the tenth year the final one?

I hope not, but even the very reliable members (when it comes to posting) aren't showing up ... I've got to wonder. If I'm the problem, let me know and I'll fade away and let you guys have this marvelous place to post. If it's something else, tell us so maybe we can fix it.

What's everybody's feelings? Are we finished?

I've loved Pixies from the day I joined and it really shook me when it looked one time like the site might fold. Then it was because of a change in ownership, but now ... well now it seems like the members are tired and/or discouraged. It'd be a shame if this most special place on the web faded and went away because no one cared enough to keep it going.

If that, however, is the choice, then I bid you a fond farewell and thank you for the years of fun and relationship that this site made possible. For myself, I'll hang on for a while and try to stay enthused ... but answering your own posts gets a little boring.

You're not the problem DB.

It appears that real life is intruding on some of our regular members' lurking.

Pixies isn't going to fade away, we hope, just stick with us and wait for the wave to rise again. Cowabunga dude.

I saw the fade-away start happening a few years ago when the whole "no super-explicit pictures" policy came down. Later, talking to others, I realized that I had misunderstood Lil's carefully worded directive on the subject regarding posts taken down if there were complaints, and maybe others did, too. I think that started a chill on activity here, because I noticed posts were way down, and old threads were coming back up, in (I can only assume) an effort for those who WERE here looking for something new and different.

It's always been a site with thousands of lurkers, as far as I can tell, and a handful of regular posters. I have been both in my 7 years here, depending on what was going on in my life. I think Oldfart is right--life takes people away, sometimes, but I don't think Pixies is in danger. Every week, it seems, someone has a "homecoming"...it's a place people may leave, but many come back to when life allows. I think we're okay.

Ive been working a lot of hours lately 56hrs a week plus trying to do 2 renn fairs,My day starts at 3:30am come home from the day job and go to work in my shop until 7-7:30pm just to tied to perv.(too much).But things will get back to normal the first of July

Thanks guys. I think I was feeling a bit down this morning and that's reflected in my post. Up a bit more now and ready to carry on. This place is just too good a place to let it fade away.

(((((((((DB))))))))) Don't you dare go away and I promise not to leave either. I know I've been missing in action a lot these days. But I think of ya'll often and because I also think this place is so damn important will make a much more concerted effort to pop in much more often to post and play. OK? Can we get back to the :molest: and :x: and :buttsex: now? :brows:

On the chiropractors table.

Sleeping and after waking up ... checking my emails. Now, it Pixie-ing I go. :)

Thanks Tess, AZ and everyone. Love ya' all.

I just woke up and had a phone call to make to my insurance.

In bed. I slept well last night...so well, I would've liked to keep doing it!

I've been in bed , sleeping, and would like to have kept doing AZ as well.

:D Think you could handle me?

Dunno, but trying sounds like a win-win to me!

Sounds that way to me too.

I don't know, but it'd be fun finding out.

Slept in this morning. Was probably 3 hours later than normal getting up ... which is pretty unusual for me. :shrug:

I went to the "Bass in the Grass" music festival tonight. It had a lot of current bands (google it and them) and a lot of alcoholicly challenged under 20s. Drinking age here is 18.

It was marvellous.

Listening to the music or watching the challenged? :confused:



......... or both? :wink:

Both.

:wtp:

Here.

A good crowd showed up, almost 8,000.

We had a planker, a current idiot craze.

LMFAO- I heard about planking last night. How goofball.

We've had a few deaths of plankers falling from balconies etc.

What's a planker?

Look at his pics on the page before.

Plankers are people who lay flat in unusual places, have a photo taken, then post the pic on social media. We've had one fall from an 11th storey balcony, another fell on a 3rd party, etc. Planker rhymes with wanker.

I have been turning my life upside down, inside out and back up the right way again :)

Glad to see you ended right side up!

Working on vehicles all day. Did upper control arm bushings in my ranchero, changed the doors on my cousin's f150, and tried to figure out how to make bucket seats from a 1996 ford explorer fit in place of the stock bench seat in my ranchero.

But what did you ^^^ do AFTER lunch?

I've been studying about medical records and got a B on my quiz because two of the questions were STUPID! :banghead:

PF, that was all day. When we work on projects on Sundays we take our time and b/s. That way we still get the work done, just not as quickly.

Wondering why I have 95.7 GIGS taking up space in the My Docs folder on my work PC... :huh:

Porn migration syndrome?

^^^ LOL

It's like he knows you, Aqua! :D

I was taking a shower...........................unfortunately alone.

I know, right? :nod:

:D

I've figured out that 32 gigs of it is a backup of my iPod music and videos.

Packing for: http://www.balticon.org/ Balticon 45

Sounds like fun. Let us know how it was. :thumbs:

Outside watering my plants and working on my tan.

No tan lines I hope.
