Ok...it's a clear evening...you have nothing to do so you log onto the Internet. And then, you click on your favorite site - Passions Forums - and WHAT? Can it be? Passions is no where to be found...no amount of backtracking, rebooting, searching or screaming will bring it up.


What would you do?????

Write a poem about how PIP left you high and dry!!! Of course it could be your computer is jealous that you spend so much time with PIP and has hidden it.

Oh..no Walt! I'd be off ICQ if this happened!!! I'd be on a plane to Michigan to find out what happened...I can see us all now, standing around Ron's house holding a candelight vigil until he got the forums running again...

I'd go up to Michigan and bribe Ron with some home bake cookies so he'd bring Passions back up

Hmmm....I'd prolly commit hari-kari with an origami poisoned pen. Or, more likely, I'd drown my sorrows playing my favorite Necromancer and his hoarde of undead mages with a metal golem and a slew of skeletal warriors and maybe a ressurrected dead thingy on Diablo II until such time as I either beat the game in Hell mode, found Passions back up, or got brained by the other people in this house for driving them up the wall.

Sharon, stop talking about what will happen during the final days! Go to the streets and make a sandwich board or something!


Seriously, I would contact all the "Passions people" over ICQ and rally a pilgrimage to Colin, Michigan to bring back our beloved forums. Can't get away from us, Ron!

I'd be like "......................"
For a few months.

then after that i'd be like "..........huh?"

and after a few months of that i'd be like
"woah it's gone!"

then i'd cry.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Wouldn't anyone go for a long walk? Plant a tree? Sew a quilt?

What do you do in your spare time? Do you have any hobbies?

I'd hope that Ron would know what he was doing, and go shopping or for a drive. LOL! Did I ever tell anyone that sometimes the internet is what I use to AVOID shopping? LOL! Yup...I tell my husband that if I weren't on the internet I'd be shopping and keeping the pavement hot! Well..geesh..its a valid excuse isn't it? Maybe I'm in denial. NAH!!

I'd go to my Yahoo club and write more nasty fowl languaged stuff about wars. Then I'd write some poetry and save it on my computer. Then I'd read my poetry anthologies during the time I usualy spend on the forums, and become an expert on poetry, lol. That'd be sweet.
