That is completely possible if someone has a laptop. I know Skype has a feature that allows you to turn off the camera feed, and if you don't want to dig through the menus you can just tape a piece of paper or something over the laptop's camera.

Well at the end of my vacation, when everything else went wrong once I got back, I'm glad at least this issue seems to be going much more optimistic. I was checking for updates in this thread the whole time and I'm still praying/giving good vibes/pulling for him here.

I know this thread has slowed down and all but, do we have any more updates?

Episcopal. We're effectively Catholics that don't believe the pope is the one single human conduit to God. We also let our priests marry and procreate, and well there's a lot of other details. I have to go like literally right now. Just look up Episcopalianism. Either way I'm sending prayers and goo...

I'm incredibly sorry to hear that news. I just got off from a horribly shitty 11 hour shift at work and was going to skip church today to mourn in private like I did last week. I think I'll force myself up to smoke/shit/shower/shave in time to attend now, though.

The very first time I ever met him was on IRC. It was maybe a day later I was bitching about having to renew my fluoxetine scrip every four months. He just offered up out of the blue "Send it over and I can underwrite it for a lifetime prescription." I didn't even know he was a doctor at that time, ...

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that's roughly about what we're all thinking.

Hahahaha. Thanks for that. I really needed a good laugh right now and that link definitely did it. I don't like to deal in favorites, but that is definitely one of my favorite movies, too.

This. I've been following this my whole work weekend, I really want to keep up on his situation.

Again as I've said, I've been a member of this community at least on IRC for a long time. I know I've slacked off on the board postings. Still, I can't just ignore Palinka's situation and I have talked in private with at least a few people from here. I did just finish a beer run (a literal run, I wa...

I know I'm always on IRC and almost never on the board, but I just heard about this maybe literally one hour ago. I'm glad he's still alive. I know not all of you are of any sort of religion, and I don't know if he was either, but I have just offered up a prayer for his recovery. I am incredibly sor...

Attagirl!

That's what I like, a broad who knows when to shut up and drink.

Yaaaaay! Server come back! :D

Where server go? :(

Indeed to him. I do have some pictures I took but I just got off the plane and back home an hour ago, so that will have to wait. Events of note I remember from the last few days: -Having the sounds of Queen permanently burned into my brain by the time I left -Trying pickled eggs for the first time a...
