Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

This is Lucimay's thread and I'll let her be the enforcer. ;)

Aww, now I feel guilty. Don't edit it, I kinda like it. Could probably come up with a better acronym though, that was just the first thing that came to mind. I know, I'm evil. :P

I make no promises to join in a Gap dissection, but I will follow it with interest. For the record, I still have only read TRS. Like dlbpharmd, I'm waiting for a reason to read the rest of the series, and having a group read to follow might be the encouragement I need.

I just bought TRS, if im quick enough in reading/understanding the story i'll mabye join in.
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

Just my :2c: - if you made it through TRS you should consider the rest of the series your reward. I think it'd be cool to do a group read with folks reading it for the first time as well as veterans...

I do have a tendency to run off on a tangent when talking about the Gap, but I can keep it under control.

:shifty:

Really. I can.

I don't understand why this is even being discussed. To be a true SRD fan you got to have 'nads'-it's like us saying, at the beginning of Dissecting the Land, "Oh maybe we should skip LFB because of the rape scene." Yes it's tough to get through, but I think you're obligated.I actually have even stronger opinions about this... :roll:

Lemme just quickly state my interest. I dunno why, but I've I always felt like I could more easily break down The Gap than TCTC 1, 2, or 3.

I wouldn't be able to do anything relating to the internet from about July 20th to August 20th, but it seems like this might be taking place a long time from now anyway. But I'd be very happy to join in whenever it does.

I'm staying away from any major discussions for the time being - I am not fit company and I have no desire to become persona non grata - have offended too many people as it is.

Not here though, as far as I know anyway. And who cares about all those other people... ;)
