Hi there!
I'm not sure if anyone remembers me, it has been a while... But I
figured it'd be time to get back to the roots, at least in a lurking
manner. I figured it'd be fair if I warn you guys. ;-)
I won't start off with ranting WHY I have actually been gone as long as
I have, rest assured, it wasn't due to the POV-Community, that one has
always been great (and skimming the posts so far, seems that hasn't
changed). :-)
Regards,
Tim

You know, I actually was thinking about you this week and the
interesting scenes that you were able to put together.

And I directed someone to your site, a couple of months ago. Welcome
back Tim.

That's got to be the most polite lurking I've ever seen ;-)

I remember that the first time I saw your name, I misread it as "Tim
Nikitas". I have no idea why. But now every time I see that name, I have
to mentally remind myself to read it correctly.
Don't you just hate it when you mis-read something and don't realise
until ages later?
(The other day I found out that "meme" is supposed to rhyme with "gene".
Damn, and I've been mis-pronouncing it all these years...)

That's really nice to hear! I have been thinking about doing another
image lately, as it has always been a sort of cleansing act for me,
ordering thoughts and ideas into something cohesive. So maybe, given a
few months (I used to take 2 months per image, roughly), there'll be
something new to see. :-)

Thanks. For both, I guess, directing someone to my site and welcoming me
back. There has been a steady decline of visits on my webpage, no
wonder, of course, when it doesn't get too much attention.

Yeah, I remember that, you mentioned it once years ago. At the time, did
I say it out loud or just wonder: Maybe you hoped I'm "La femme Nikita"? :-D

Maybe, but as Stephen already put it: If you change your nick, how am I
to know? How did you call yourself, say, four to five years ago?
> It's good to hear from old friends.
Only if those friends call without having demands or ways they need to
use you. :-P

Well, wanted to announce that I'm back, but will read a little while
before I start actively engaging in debates and flame-wars again. ;-)

It's nice to be back when a bunch of people remember you! :-)

But of course. ;) One might debate, however, that you're actively
engaged in a debate now - namely, the debate about whether or not you're
actively engaged in a debate or not. ;-) (I couldn't resist. <G>)

It's always good to see familiar people return. :-)

I’ll have you know that in my youth I was considered a beauty and was
asked out by several guys. (This is a long story and I don’t think I
have the time for it just now.)

I think it would be better if invoking the Paradox had some kind of
worldly consequence. Like Jumanji. But with a better storyline...
