In any event, when I thrust myself out of bed so violently, my heart became tremulous, . . . and I had the direst sense of mortality I have ever experienced.

haha. MY word of the day is:
"Hey Guys follow me, I found a good base location: the ELEVATOR ROOM"
It is so nice to have people here with good new ideas! ;)

And my word of the day is: "Dinner time at the elevator room" ;).
On a slightly more serious note I observed a nice little game yesterday. The hummies were relocating to the elevator room but there was a dragoon there hopping around on them. The human team didn't last quite long, not odd considered they already deleted the reactor :).
