The Groovy Psychedelic Chit-Chat Lounge

July 1969 - a time of great turmoil. America is deeply embroiled in a hot war in Vietnam and a cold war with the Soviet Union, while on the homefront there is tremendous unrest as the culture undergoes radical changes. While astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins are on their way to a date with destiny aboard Apollo 11, life on Earth is becoming more and more confusing. Defenders of established traditions are fighting an increasingly losing battle against those who want change. Sex, drugs, and rock and roll are becoming more prevalent, and the threat of nuclear annihilation hangs over the planet like a shroud.

July 2009 - a time of great turmoil. America is deeply embroiled in wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, while on the homefront there is tremendous political division and the economy is in dire shape. A new president promises change, but can he possibly live up to lofty expectations? Crime has worsened with the economic situation, the scourge of drugs ruins countless lives, and the threat of another terrorist attack looms always in the background.

Strange events are happening that link these times together, and a handful of people find themselves caught up in them. Will they figure out what's going on before they lose their minds - or their heads?

Yes, you'll both be in the same thread once I get Harry set up.

I will be going to a convention from July 7-11 and I won't have Internet access then (or time to use it even if I did). I will, however, be off from work before that starting on July 3, so I'll have more time to post then. I'm also going to be on vacation in Vancouver from July 29-August 9, and I don't expect to have Internet access then either. I will have more time to post on August 10-15, as I'll be off from work for the remainder of that week. Most of the people whose games I'm in are in one or both of my games, so this will serve as notice for them of my impeding absences.

Congratulations! Take all the time you need. You're ahead of everyone else and in a thread by yourself anyway, so you don't need to worry about holding anyone else up.

I won't be able to post again before leaving, so this will probably be it until after I get back. I should be able to post again on August 10.

I'm not going to be around on a regular basis for a while. Tomorrow I'm leaving on a trip for Alaska, so I may not have regular internet access for a while. I'll be gone around two weeks. Hopefully I'll be able to check in on at least a semi regular basis.

Right after I get back I'm turning around and moving over to China on August 23rd. That will also put me out of action for a few days.

Hopefully the transition will go smoothly and I'll be around, but its actually possible that I might not be able to access this site any more once I move to china. They have some serious firewall action going on over there.

Thanks for letting me know. I hope you don't have any problems accessing this site from China, and I wish you all the best with your move. I do have free Internet access in the hotel where I'm staying, but not a whole lot of time to get online. I may be able to update some Space Oddity threads tonight and/or tomorrow night, and hopefully I can move most characters on to Thursday soon. Your thread can just stay where it is until you get back, and if you're unable to return to the site in China it can remained suspended.

I've found my way back to the hallowed halls of Yog Sothoth. I'm all settled in here in China, but it might be another few days before I can start posting again, I'm going to be very busy until the weekend.

Thanks for letting me know. See you next week!

I hope to be able to update all of the threads Thursday night. I'll also be declaring some of the players who disappeared MIA pretty soon.

I'm going to a convention this weekend, so I won't be able to get online after Thursday night until Sunday night. I'll try to update everything before I go. There's a good chance I won't be able to update right away when I get back, but I'll have a lot more free time next week.
