Dan, I'm truly sorry you didn't ask anyone before you entered this treacherous territory of "JJ Skypeland". Those of us who made this mistake long before you could have warned you away and saved you a lot of future grief.

You will now find yourself being awakened at 3 AM EST to talk sheep.

But worse than talking by Skype - after all, you can always shut down and later claim power failure - is actually meeting this Bald Kiwi Loon in person. There's no way to get away from him then. You have to sit there and listen to sheep talk for hours on end with no relief.

I can't believe how slow I am to some of the new [or in my case not so new] technologies out there. I'm amazed how many of you have "been there, done that".
Poor JJ called me last night because I told him I'd be home but ended up having a gig with my band. I'm sure I'll talk to him today.

Oh dear, another victim. Never mind - it's about time we formed a support group.

I've spoken to JJ quite a few times, even before this forum took off. JJ's as much of a gent on the phone as he is on the forum.

I figured that the rest of the guys have already done the job on you. Adding anything more would be like watching a mouse trying to mug a rhinocerous.

What in the name of Jove are you talking about?

Don't go easy on those meds, Eddie - your paranoia's showing. The situation's as it's always been - behave yourself and you won't get spanked.
