Thank god for those disks, huh? I had to put half of my web files onto a zip disk after my Front Page program decided not to work anymore. People have been begging to read your Changes Trilogy so when you have time, try to get those up for them. :) > > I guess this is as good a time as any to announce my NEW TMNT site. > I've been planning on redoing it for a while, but it took me some > time to decide on a final design.

Heh, yeah I've already said my opinion about Casey and I hope he appears in plenty more episodes afterwards! Maybe more than April!

Oh, and speaking of free time, I have something to say, but it probably won't happen and I'm just wasting text space here. Mom picked up a newsletter on our town for recreation activities and while I skimmed it, I came across a class for Taekwondo. The fee is $70 for 11 weeks and the sessions are only two days per week. A martial arts uniform is required and can be purchased for an additional $25 from the instructor. I seriously considered signing up because it's good exercise and I want to learn a form of self-defense but I had to hear from my family of the usual 'it cost too much' or 'why would you want to do that? Because of the TMNT?' I don't have $70 to shell out for something like that but I feel like I'm going to miss out on a huge opportunity. Did you feel the same way when you started taking karate lessons? Did you feel like if you didn't sign up, you would regret it? Well, now I'm off to...mope. Hate feeling down in the dumpster. *siiigh* Brinatello
