The LitNeT Town crier.

Missing in action

Our Moderators are over the mountain
Our Mods are lost in the sea
Our Mods have gone far way
O please return them to we

And other such grammatical atrocities have been the mutterings among the smilies on the ground this weekend as we go on to the 26 yes 26h hour of the continued absence of all 3 moderators.
What happened! The last of the 3 ( Scher Logos and Jay) to be seen or heard from was Logos and that was 25 and a half hours ago.

So the crier asks you.. Do you think they have disappeared or are lurking silently on the sidelines with the Guest and the forum secrets waiting to pounce in force?
Have they formed their own fleet and are silently and swiftly erasing all traces of ill humor?
Furthermore and equal importantly The Amazon is left captinless and defenseless against the growing troops of Cap’n Stan’s dasterdlies and The Cosmic bar in the live chat is unmanned and the backlog of smilies waiting for their geek refills are growing to such degrees that the ministry of Smiles is putting up a strike warning. :nod:

Night, maybe they think that we should have a holiday today like "Roman Holiday"

Has anyone watched the movie: Roman Holiday?

Ahemmm http://www.websmileys.com/sm/violent/sterb292.gif

well I suppose that the sensible reason if you want to be sensible :(

Wouldn't you know it? I switch sides and everyone abandons me. ;) The Dastardly's forces are growing, and I'm the only one holding the fort on the Amazon. And since I was a traitor, the dastardly's crew will certainly behead me if I'm captured.

behead... no hang draw and quater more like... or aybe theyll let me try some magical experiments on youI have this one spell Im dying to try :brow:

OK, I admit to having succumbed to the alure of real life and got a little distracted recently. As Night pointed out already the two weeks holiday here made my life a littel busier than usual. However, that does not mean I don't visit the Forum (which I do at least once a day) but simply prefer to read than post myself if I am short of time.

Well, where have you been? Tofu? Isn't that like eating air? ;)

Virgil, you're welcome as long as you won't turn traitor again. Papaya, I don't recommend combining papayas and tofu in the same dish. :lol:

No, not a mutiny. But the Dastardly has been doing very well in recruiting. Perhaps we need to offer some incentives. Otherwise pretty soon we're going to be outmanned.

It's quality, not quantity that matters ;)

I wouldn't know. :mad: My big Tofu adventure turned into a complete flop. I had a recipe to grill the Tofu but it just stuck to the grill pan and never really cooked. Slightly dissappointing, next time I may try baking it..if there is a next time.

Well you can take that 2 ways either it was sooo delish that the pan tried to eat it or... the pan was trying to save you from a big mistake. :p

1933 GMT Rachel has just been spotted by the crier ... thought you might likr to know :nod:

ye should try boiling it in soup broth! :thumbs_up

really? will that work?

Personally, I'd rather stuff it with dynamite.

yup, you don't want the tofu to thick, I would also suggest throwing in some vegis, and maybe some shrimp (well, personally I likes the shrimp) but, some vegies: like spinach, needle mushrooms, a bit o bok choy, and it is best served if you have some spicy cury type sauce that you can put on the tofu...not too much though!

Its quite good! :thumbs_up

well, I know a little me self, and fer the most part be me dad, I swear you could give him cats poop, an old shoe, and some broken lightbublbs an he would make a 5 course meal...that was nutrisious and tasty!

sounds delicious. Mr. Penguin, How to boil water:
1. fill a pot about 2/3 full with water
2. place pot on stovetop
3. turn heat on, preferably to high
4. for faster results use lid, although optional
5. wait until water is bubbling, preferably rapidly with large bubbles
6. turn heat down to medium
7. you have boiled water

boiled water is good for preparing cooked vegetables, tea, or just for use as hot water.
