Ouch. Lords do I have a headache most wouldn't believe, or maybe
some of you would. But I haven't even touched the bottle. *sigh* *groan*
After Goss and I cleared out the frames (time? what time? don't remember)
we tried to set up a screen type program against them. It worked for a
little while. Then the damned little rats were back. So we hosed them
again. And again. So finally the system is clear and I have a little time
to myself. I start going back over the firefight down-load. Here's something
peculier. There was some slitch standing outside my house, across the street
mind you, grinning. Especially when Collossus ripped up my window (thanks
big guy...*ouch* *wince*). Odder still he was wearing Ancient's colors,
you know the black and green leathers?, but had Double D emblazoned on the
breast pocket. He was grinning the whole while as the fire fight started,
right up until those lmg's spouted *heh heh*. He lost his grin then and split
giving another view of Double D on the back of the jacket. Anyone with any
ideas who this is? Right about this point in the sensory feed, Goss came back
and annoyed me until she got my attention. (gonna fix that) Now instead of
devil rats loose, I got angels and demons. It was once said that a mind can
make a heaven out of hell and a hell out of heaven. Someone's doing a fine
job of it. And I think I know who. *grrr* Goss and I go to analyze one of
these demons (thinking the uglier the more dangerous) and an angel carooms
into the node and smashes into the demon. Both go up in a pillar of fire.
Smart *ss designer. So we try again. One the fairer of the pair. Ouch. The
consequences are giving me a first class hangover/headache. The pair (aye,
another one, this time a demon, came running in and gibbering then kissed the
angel) exploded. *ouch* Backlash central. I don't know what it was carrying,
but hit the frames from afar. Hard. Seems killing one keeps the discharge
to a minimum. Now I'm off to take some aspirin.]<<<<<

system
too, only to have it reinfected. It seems to be concentrating in the RnD and
datastore nodes. This is, however, making the other two chairs
unhappy.]<<<<<
