Um. Hi all. Possible scroll alert. I’ve been popping in and out of the thread this evening. (And I’m here every evening, even if I never post.) I can’t help but feel a bit dismayed at the, well, dismay that has been expressed regarding Rowe starting up a PF site/blog again. (And maybe I’m misinterpreting; I haven’t had a chance to read every post tonight.) I just feel like there are enough adam fans in the world to support as many blogs as bloggers want. Like many of you, I’m a refugee from the great MJs exodus of November 2009. Lots of names that were around that time are gone. They’ve gone to twitter, they’ve gone to other sites, they’ve gone into permanent lurkdom…and yet, atop is still a wonderful place. Lots of new names and new fans are here…making atop a wonderful place. Starting a new PF will mean a new place for new fans, I don’t believe anyone expects it to be the community it once was. How can it? It will be different, it might be wonderful, but it’s not going to be what it was because the people that made it what it was are here now, for the most part. But that’s OK. There’s room in the world for another PF. I’ll never forget how happy I was to find PF way back when, and for that I’ll be ever grateful to Rowe. I wish her all the best. And I’ll never forget the day I found atop on twitter, after PF disappeared. For that I’ll be ever grateful to Q3. Anyone who dedicates their time to supporting a fan blog or discussion forum has my respect, and I respect the decisions they may make about those boards. I tend to be an observer rather than a participant. It doesn't mean that I don't love this place, I'm just quiet about it. :-) Uh, yeah, anyway. That’s all. Carry on. ETA: Well nuts. I'm kind of repeating some of the things a whole bunch of other folks have said. :-) Yes, but you said it so well, Avari!! From someone else who is by nature more inclined to be a "fly on the wall" lurker, Welcome!! Adamtopia is a wonderful place for the quiet people like us as well as all the clever, witty and more vocal peeps!

I don't believe this stuff, but here's an aritcle on mercury in retrograde. www.astrologyzone.com/forecasts/mercury.htmlExcerpt: What happens when Mercury retrogrades? You miss appointments, your computer equipment crashes, checks get lost, you find the car you just purchased during Mercury retrograde is a lemon. (Or, you hate your haircut, the lamp you bought shorts out, your sister hates her birthday gift.) There will be countless delays, cancellations and postponements--but know these will benefit you in the long run. Don't fight them, although your frustration level and feeling of restlessness will be hard to cope with at times.

He can barely make it places on time under normal circumstances.

hahaha!!! @adamlambert Arg mercury is heavy duty retrograde.OMG GUYS!!!! A Time-Out: Mercury retrograde gives us time to catch up with ourselves, and to look back. Something from the past might return in a different form. This can mean people, ideas or buried insights that need to surface for you to move forward. Often it's felt as a contemplative time, depending on the sign, a chance to go over old ground again, to claim what you missed the first time. astrology.about.com/od/advancedastrology/p/MercuryRetro.htmWell there you go. ha ha

I just looked up this retrograde period for 2011, and it is only supposed to be affecting the Fire signs. That would be Sauli's sign, Aries, but not Aquarius. The site I found said that nothing new should be started. It can be thought about but not put into motion or activated. He cracks me up!!!
