Well, i thought i should give you all a heads up. I'll be leaving this friday afternoon for the boy scout jamboree. I wont be back untill the 3rd. That's about 10 days i guess. And, needless to say, i wont have a computer, or if i do, i shant have time to visit and all. Sorry guys!
Anyway, just thought it would be nice to let you all know.

Unforutnatly after the last code update I lost most of my moderator magic and have yet to hear back from Shikeishuu about it. I might try another e-mail...
But have fun on the jamboree. Never got far enough in scouting myself to even become a full fledged boy scout. I can partly blame myself for not having motivation, but I also must blame a really really crappy local setup.

Yeah, I waited untill after I turned 14 to get awarded it though because a few days after my 14th birthday I went to Philmont for about a hundred miles of hiking and summers are always very busy for my family anyway. I sure could have gotten eagle palms, but I showed up more than my scout master did and was the most devoted person to it near my age, so things got boring never working on my stuff anymore and always being expected to do mess for everybody constantly that wasn't my job. I think I ended up with 55 merit badges anyway.

annnnnnd..........
I'm back!
In the last few hours, i've had the 2nd shower in 2 weeks. The first warm shower in 2 weeks, the other was ice. I've had the first meal that i didnt have to make and was not an MRE. And for those of you that heard about the 4 deaths and hundreds of cases of dehydration and heat stroke at the 2005 National Scout Jamboree, i was not among those numbers! After i've recoved from living in the same 2 pairs of scout shorts for 2 weks and the 10 hour drive back, i'll get on to telling you about my trip and stuff.

Welcome back! And I'm glad you survived. I heard about the deaths, not good news at all.
But I can only imagine how good it must feel to be back though in the world of modern conviences.
