Crap. Having lived in a house with a flooding basement and having had some small floods when I lived in a basement apartment I can sympathize. I am saddened by the loss of the books and I am certain the loss of gaming will be felt by you as well. I hope the damage is much less than you expect. |

As do I, dearest Bruce. We'll have to call out landlord and tell him about this later, as well. |

Losing a book can be like losing a friend. I hope you have a reasonable landlord. |

That stinks Suzu, I hope your games systems are ok & your landlord does something. Hi Dale how have you been? Glad you're ok Jordan. I haven't been on KW in ages. I went to read a couple of your topics you told me about right after I left & that was it. I'm glad you're able to get here again. |

Zonkers, I'm doing okay. I've got a lot of farm chores to do since all the snow left. It's still muddy in some fields. I'm not driving the tractor off the farm road like I once did. That time, I buried the real wheels in mud up to the hubs. Boy was my dad mad. I had to unload the trailer of wood I was hauling and unhitch the tailer. Then my dad took over and almost flipped the tractor as the front wheels bucked up in the air several times. I put some branches of brush under the rear wheels, and the tractor broke free. I ran home quickly, passing the woodshed before dad got there. I wasn't going to hang around. The branches are still sticking up out of the mud as a reminder not to do that again.Happy Father's Day to you and your dad. Edited by Dale, Jun 15 2014, 08:00 PM.

It's supposed to hit 35C (95F) today. Hottest day so far. A long way from -40 this winter. |

So, turns out most of my clothes aren't worth trying to save. So I lost about 70% of my wardrobe including almost all of my winter wardrobe. We hit the thrift store today hoping to replace some of it for cheap. GameCube works perfectly. Bathroom tile is still iffy. House is a mess. Dryer won't plug back into the wall properly after we unplugged it so we could shift things around in the laundry room and rip up the carpet. Other stressful stuff I won't go into. I've never advocated turning to mind-altering substances in times of hardship, but I confess that I may have drained the rest of the schnapps last night. Hope everyone is doing good. |

I got mail from Geezer. I replied back to him. Zonkers, I hope you see him soon. Check out the site that I sent him. Maybe there is a job in it for you.

Suzu, Do you have any way of getting money for the things that you lost? Do you have a landlord? |

Hey Dale. Nope! And yup, but the most we can hope to get out of him is money to put down tile in the laundry room, if he decides that's what he wants done. He's supposed to come down to the house and look at some point. How are you? |

Suzu, I'm doing fine. I can't complain, when so many people, like yourself, have had such disasters. We still have water in the basement from so much rain, but there is no carpet to get destroyed. It's mostly for storing canned goods, piling up wood for the furnace, and doing the laundry. I live in a farm house that must be 100 years old. My dad's father built it. He died when my dad was only 3, so I never knew him. He must have been quite the guy though, because he cleared the land of trees, plowed the fields, and built this house. He had 8 boys and 2 girls, which all lived in this same house. My grandmother lives downstairs, and my dad, mom, sister, brother, and I live upstairs.

Sounds like quite the guy indeed. I used to live in a very old house, also over 100 years old or so, I didn't much care for it. My mother and brothers still live there. Finding myself bored at home and lacking games to play (since I have not yet tested all my systems), I decided to download some free games last time I was here. Ib was quite entertaining, and after that, I moved on to Katawa Shoujo, which I have never played before but heard good things about. Thirty minutes in and I get this scene: http://oi59.tinypic.com/34glgkk.jpg http://oi61.tinypic.com/ogi6td.jpg http://oi61.tinypic.com/s3n43l.jpg I think I'm going to like this game.

Melon booze sounds nasty Suzu. Hi Dale, that was an interesting site, I might of seen it before. That looks like an awesome game Suzu! Hey Jordan, how's your summer vacation so far? |
