I'd like to join in if possible, but that would depend on how welcome I am and if it's in the middle of exams.

Ily, what GW2 server do you play on, if I may ask?

Also, Hoagie's birthday's coming around again soon, so I'm sure he'd be delighted for s'more naked pics, Jassi.

(...Nagging feeling that no one except Keres will remember who I am.)

Cove is lovely ^_^
Also, nice ride, Ily.

And because we're not supposed to reply without pictures and I lack the seniority to defy orders, I present you with a picture of the trees in Shinjuku, Tokyo from my trip to Japan around Christmas time

To L. Keres,
  Please let it be respectfully known that that one Alfred Bohr is does not possess the middle name of, nor is known as "Enrique" for the purposes of this report or any other. An alteration or addendum to this report would be humbly appreciated, if you would be so kind.

  Sincerely,

                 A. Bohr

So I've been offline for months due to not paying to renew the subscription aka money issues.
It finally got sorted today 'cause the house Hoagie (James below) has, which is tied into the account, is falling down. To stop it from doing so Hoagie came up with a... solution. He explains the process below:

(2:14:15 AM) James : The plan was, I'd trade the house to Esca
(2:14:18 AM) James : And he'd trade it back
(2:14:22 AM) James : Thus negating the delay
(2:14:26 AM) James : Decay rather
(2:14:41 AM) Alfred Bohr : Yeah
(2:14:44 AM) James : But they changed it so apparently after getting rid of a house you can't get a new one for 7 days
(2:14:49 AM) James : So that'll have to wait
(2:15:41 AM) James : This means I just left a key Covian plot in the hands of Vesper's GM for a week
(2:26:03 AM) Alfred Bohr : ...
(2:26:08 AM) Alred Bohr: 0____________0
(2:26:18 AM) Alfred Bohr: Quote thread.

That's funny, 'cause what we've seen of the Stormcloaks has lead me to believe that it should be phrased, "Stormcloaks for death, bro"?

Skyrim possession confirmed. Massive workload also possessed. Anyone else have the map? Seems everyone I'm living with does.

... There have been no replies so I feel I should just state for the purposes of making it recognised that your questions have not been totally ignored, I am replying.
I am not on twitter. Sorry ^_^'

I know where Order 66 is from. I'm not that much of a normal person.

...I just wanted to know what the legend was, but fair. >.> Maybe I should ask Kas. He may spin a story about evil horses but we'll see.

...Waitaminute. I just reread that to if I missed anything and I seriously did. What?? *Hugs* Ily, you're awesome. Don't you let anyone make you forget that, telepathic powers or nay.

^_^

I recognised the general joking nature of the "rules", yes, but I didn't realise we had cliches. I'm so still curious as to whether I'm allowed to know about the whole... "Mela" thing. I know Eric Arkay is a great Covian legend, at least. And for Dave Williams, I have heard enough to know what that's about ^_^' (Not Order 66 o.O)

-Alf'

Hey Ily,
  Just a few queries here, first of which being about the hair. Not that it pertains to Alf', but as for following Hoagie and Eason... well, to put it simply, they're bald. So how does that fit in, considering they are our elders and betters (or just craziers)? >.>
  Secondly, could you possibly explain number 31, please?

  Thirdly, and possibly least importantly, what do you mean by number 1, exactly?

  I know Alf' isn't really any sort of authority on Covian ways, and I don't really have the right to question your wisdom, but I would like to put in this polite request.

  Thank you, Ily ^_^

-Alfred Bohr

Aye, Happy Birthday ^_^ Hope it was a good one.

Try not to hit the booze if you're still underage for America (which I believe you are)... but then I can't at all tell you what to do ^_^'

I'd still appreciate it if you'd have yourself a good time ^_^

The second term this school year was largely spent on this lab project, being getting metal rings to jump in the air by shoving an electric current through a solenoid (funky spirally wire thing).
This thread is pics only so I felt I had to upload something to be able to ask Kado this: ... What happened in your signature? And why is Hoagie naked? >.<

For some reason in this picture the camera caught the ghost image of this particular jumping ring (some rings jumped almost a metre after we stuck 'em in liquid nitrogen but the jump height on this is about the best we got without the cold stuff).



Sorry if this isn't something you find interesting

After a slight mishap in an IC RI delivery, we were in the middle of discussing how to rectify the issue. The latter portion of the interchange may have been in reference to something.

Thomas Aylmer: So daring sneaking in and planting the barrel?
Alfred Bohr: *Offers a hand*
Thomas Aylmer: *Shakes*
Thomas Aylmer: Right.
Alfred Bohr: Aylmer and Alf' to more adventures, then.
Thomas Aylmer: We've got half a pack of reagents,
Thomas Aylmer: A full tank of Bulk,
Thomas Aylmer: It's dark,
Thomas Aylmer: And were wearing hats.
Alfred Bohr: Let's hit it.

It turned out fine in the end ^_^

"What is this?" Alfred Bohr wondered, as he stood by a large oak deep into what was, to be fair, a small forest. Alfred Bohr had not planned on doing or seeing anything unusual in particular that day, and had simply gone on a normal stroll through the woods on the outskirts of the town he was currently residing in. Now, the choice of the phrase "currently residing in" for usage in the last sentence was not unintentional but rather was to indicate that the young man standing in this forest had not always lived in the aforementioned town but rather had  moved to the Baronship of Cove (for this was the town's name) from elsewhere. And, incidentally, the reason that he was at this point, residing on land owned by the baronship was related to his being in the forest at this moment.
He examined his point of interest slightly more closely, though keeping a slight amount of distance and a fair grip on his sword as if it, or anything else in the woods, might jump out at him with murderous intent. After all, it wouldn't do for a Covian soldier to be taken by surprise in his own territory because of simple lack of readiness, would it?
Then again, what soldier, man of men, hero of Cove would be caught looking at a bracelet in the woods? As that was his subject of interest. More accurately, a bracelet which had managed to become attached to the tree some years ago, and which the tree had grown around, swallowing it up like a walrus swallowing whole fish.
It looked delicate, more like something a lady would wear to enhance the slender curve of arm to hand than a man trying to protect his wrists in battle. On the small bit that still stuck out from the blanket of bark, an intricate pattern of repeating knots was wound, swooping in and out, looping about itself and woven in some metal that caught the small amount of light that shone through the trees as if it had once been brilliant. That small glimmer was what had originally caught his eye, drawing his attention to the spectacle, an intermingling of nature and man's creation. It could almost been some piece of arcane art, he felt, knowing all too well creativity of certain comrades who dabbled in magic. It was this illogical association, he knew himself it was, that made him hesitant.
Suddenly, a wild bird called, shaking Alfred out of his reverie and reminding him of his duties, and that his free time was drawing to a close. He shook himself off, took a last, searching glance and took off back towards the town from whence he came, left with a little more about these woods, but knowing that there was so much more that he'd yet to discover.
tl;dr: Alf' saw a bit of jewellery a tree had grown over.

I'm just impressed it's been around since '99... though that's definitely not a negative thing.

Also, the cosy corner is awesome.
