That's usually what sets Ray off, right? Its last 7th Doctor story from Virgin Ray just hated the book What's so bad about it? Wheres hes on Gallifrey and you get to meet his clone family ::Shrugs:: Its almost as bad where they kill all of the cats Speaking of cruelty to cats, Rob do you like the door shutting on Irish' tail thing tonight? I hope it's not too silly for you. Silly Irish will hold a grudge forever! Revenge!!!!!! I figured that. :) Forgive me if I'm not too talkitive, Im not as well as I hoped I'd be I'll remember that in future sims when we meet the Gatherers again. Not feeling well Heather? no. Well, that's too bad. Here, have some of my chicken soup. * Jacie dishes out a cup I like the Gatherers. They also operate as agents for "others" * IrishTCat feels pretty good for a change Uh huh. Well, if we could just get David and Cody we could begin. Thanks Jen. :-) * IrishTCat springs up into the air Anyone heard from them today? Hmmmm I would have to be online to have heard from them nope. I haven't spoken to Cody all week. I don't see either of them online. :( Neither have I from Cody. I hope he's alright. so do I. His sister hasn't e-mailed me any problems. I also. theres David.. Ah, there's David.
