How cool is that! Did you make the ornate (and enormous) bronze codpiece yourself, or did you buy it somewhere?

I have posted a Hiatus desktop wallpaper theme I found on my old Mac hard drive:

I'll let you know if I find any more.

John, may I grab these wonderful bits of history for the SaveHiatus site? Crediting (or blaming) you, of course...

Sure, Chris.

Anything for you.

I mean... you started this. You're a GOD!

No, wait. That's too much. I can't think!

Okay... okay. Breathe.

Chris Bridges addressed me by name! OMG. And he wants to grab my bits.

Okay.

But really! We thought we were all ALONE! And now there's this awesome THING, this FAN site and EVERYTHING, that you brought into existance!

Thank you.

HIATIANS UNITE!!

Thank you.

Posted!

And please. I'm just a fan. An obsessive, obsessive fan. I put my Hiatus Underoos on one extremity at a time, just like you (presumably) do.

Oh sure. Just a fan. That's like calling a Rllrian 'just a scimitar-wielding phoraletic chapropod.'

And... Underoos! Okay, another foray into the archive is called for...

I found a slightly older wallpaper relic from the Hiatus wonderparsecs:

I was highly amused to be reminded of some of the marketing they used! I don't think some of that would "fly" today.

Come to think of it....

Ooh! Buried in with tax receipts from 1990-1999 (the IRS did not allow 'professional HiatusCon attendee' -- don't ask) I found a lovely newspaper clipping, now posted:

Maybe I should just set you up as an authorized author at the SaveHiatus site... [Smile]

Oh no. What if I were to slip up, and post something inauthentic?

JVP said he'd be in "meetings" today. The English language is such a marvelous, flexible thing....

Hey, Chris, just so you know... Flash Fiction Friday this week is a Hiatus fanfic. [Smile] Could be fun. Or it could just be really really really bad. [Razz]
