All the best, --HappyCamper 11:14, 12 May 2006 (UTC) Sorry Folks; I was traumatized by my dealing with the Nambla site because of my own bad experiences as a kid. I should have been able to control my terror and stay calm, but I was really scared. When I felt provoked by Nathan (real)or just by my own fears I assumed wrongly that he was a member of NAMBLA. It was intuitive and it was wrong. I am fairly new to computers... and newer even to going on line and did not know capital letters meant yelling. I figure I owe Nathan a "APOLAGY" "APOLOGY" (that's not yelling, I just could not remember how to spell it). Sorry Nathan. --merlinus 12:47, 12 May 2006 (UTC) Whopper has smiled at you!

Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend: Yes, good Idea, I should like to send one to Nathan and to George. On my page I said that I disabled and did not deal with stress well. I am sorry that my problems got the best of me. To put things in perspective, The day before yesterday I had to bring my cat jeffy to the emergency room and he is sick and might soon die. The computer and all my posessionsa are naught compared to my beloved cat. I pray all is well for youw r. I was hope that you are more relaxed and comfortable yourself too now. {{subst:smile}}— File:Peace Sign 2.svg Merlinus (Freedom is lifestyle Not a slogan)--merlinus 03:58, 16 May 2006 (UTC) I wish you the best of luck with Jeffy; I'll continue to hope that he gets well soon. Joe 04:04, 16 May 2006 (UTC) Update about Jeffy Jeffy my 16 year old cat was very sick and it was really touch and go. The Vet gave him IV liquids under the skin to rehydrate him, gave him meds to help him a procudure to help him go to the bathroom and daily meds to do the same. A new special diet and a list of instructions to make sure he eats solid foods and does not lose more weight. He's not out of hot water yet, but seems to be getting stronger. Thanks for your understanding. Marc. --merlinus 20:30, 17 May 2006 (UTC) Welcome! Welcome and Congratulations on joining the project! I'm sorry this welcome message took so long, but you joined during my Wikibreak, and I assumed that someone else would welcome you in the meantime. Still, that's no excuse, and I am most humbly sorry. Sergeant Snopake 20:51, 17 May 2006 (UTC) I've been chilling out for a while and busy with my wife, family, cats and basicly trying to sort a few things out on this end. Jeff gained about 1/2 pound in the last week if your following his recorvery. My three cats mean a very lot to me- especially jeffy. Take care for now. Marc-- Just checking in: Using Wikipedia for some reference materials. merlinus --merlinus 11:05, 28 May 2006 (UTC)(UTC) File:Peace Sign 2.svg Merlinus (Massachusetts: Personal Freedom is Our Way of life!) Sounds good :) Whopper 15:46, 28 May 2006 (UTC) Jeffy For those of you that are following his recovery progress reports, Jeffy is about 100% better. Thanks for all of your well wishes (in person), E-mails and support. File:Peace Sign 2.svg Merlinus (Massachusetts: Personal Freedom is Our Way of life!) Yay for Jeffy! :-) --HappyCamper 20:56, 7 June 2006 (UTC) FYI re HC In case you didn't come across it yet, Laurascudder has written an excellent "Outside view" at MDW's RFC that you may want see or add commentary. We feel pretty much the same as yourself about HC. --hydnjo talk 18:55, 24 June 2006 (UTC) Marc PASSES Wiki Smiles to good Guys Happy Camper (and to Nathan too!) merlinus has smiled at you!

Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend.

Happy editing! --merlinus 21:54, 29 June 2006 (UTC) Thanks for the WikiSmile. On a side note, I've noticed that when you comment to people or leave things like WikiSmiles, you type your signature multiple times. I'm not sure if you're intentionally doing this for a reason or actually forgetting how to properly sign comments. It's three tildes ("~~~") to sign just your name, four tildes ("~~~~") to sign both your name and the date (which is the acceptable way to sign comments) and five tildes ("~~~~~") for just the date. — Nathan (talk) / 13:05, 6 July 2006 (UTC) Hello Hi Merlinus - I am healthy and back again :-) I was glad to hear your cat is doing well. I hope your enjoyment of Wikipedia grows with each day! --HappyCamper 02:44, 18 July 2006 (UTC) Hi Guys All is going well enough this summer for us. We are relaxed and having a good time, but would prefer it to be a little cooler out. Have been thinking a lot about the uselessness of American infighting over trival things when we really need to be more united against terrorists and greater threats. We really need to put things in perspective these days starting with national security. Secondly we need to protect each other physicaly and emotionaly as best we can. This needs to be a summer of great American maturing I think. Weve got a long way to go. Merlinus.--merlinus 00:38, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
