Hello, fellow undead members! I apologize for my absence over the past several months. To make up for it, I offer you a new installment of my old column. I realize that it is a paltry offering and I realize that it looks a bit pathetic ("Douglas has been away for months and all he's got to show for it is this?), but I hope that, what with the ( Read more... )

As I was perusing a site for funny icons, I happened to find this. I immediately thought of this community.

My Dear Fellow Undead,

As the holiday season is almost here, what is it that (if you were going to make one of those horridly impolite begging excuses known as a "gift list") wish for the most this time of year?

I must wish a terribly belated birthday to our own byzantinequeen. Forgive me, cousin, for the very untimely delay ( Read more... )
