Work and then dinner.

Working and hoping this cold will go away.

Hot tub. It's a glorious evening here in the old pueblo.

So does that mean you were in the tub and making it hot?

AZ, it might not be wise to take an asthmatic's breath away like that.

I teach Math and Science in a juvenile correctional facility. I'm looking for better teaching opportunities.

In bed, asleep, but I'm about to head off to work.

Out to dinner with a couple of coworkers. Kind of shame one is taken and the other doesn't like my long hair.

Trying to sleep until recently. Now that I've got to get up ... I'm finally getting tired. :(

Actually, "Where have you been?" is a good question. Seems like very, very few are posting anything. Has everyone given up on Pixies? Is the tenth year the final one?

I hope not, but even the very reliable members (when it comes to posting) aren't showing up ... I've got to wonder. If I'm the problem, let me know and I'll fade away and let you guys have this marvelous place to post. If it's something else, tell us so maybe we can fix it.

What's everybody's feelings? Are we finished?

I've loved Pixies from the day I joined and it really shook me when it looked one time like the site might fold. Then it was because of a change in ownership, but now ... well now it seems like the members are tired and/or discouraged. It'd be a shame if this most special place on the web faded and went away because no one cared enough to keep it going.

If that, however, is the choice, then I bid you a fond farewell and thank you for the years of fun and relationship that this site made possible. For myself, I'll hang on for a while and try to stay enthused ... but answering your own posts gets a little boring.

You're not the problem DB.

It appears that real life is intruding on some of our regular members' lurking.

Pixies isn't going to fade away, we hope, just stick with us and wait for the wave to rise again. Cowabunga dude.

I saw the fade-away start happening a few years ago when the whole "no super-explicit pictures" policy came down. Later, talking to others, I realized that I had misunderstood Lil's carefully worded directive on the subject regarding posts taken down if there were complaints, and maybe others did, too. I think that started a chill on activity here, because I noticed posts were way down, and old threads were coming back up, in (I can only assume) an effort for those who WERE here looking for something new and different.

It's always been a site with thousands of lurkers, as far as I can tell, and a handful of regular posters. I have been both in my 7 years here, depending on what was going on in my life. I think Oldfart is right--life takes people away, sometimes, but I don't think Pixies is in danger. Every week, it seems, someone has a "homecoming"...it's a place people may leave, but many come back to when life allows. I think we're okay.

dicksbro 05-18-2011 06:37 PM

Thanks guys. I think I was feeling a bit down this morning and that's reflected in my post. Up a bit more now and ready to carry on. This place is just too good a place to let it fade away.
