Tequila is like Nyquil to me. without the hangover.
so Lou, which CF were you referring to (what instance) and was it a PUG? or your own guild? if it was your guild, it should be quittin time right about now. All they needed to do was double back and pick you up again. If it was a PUG, you now see why i play that game solo. And you really need to get Tony into that game so he quits ragging on you every time you bring it up.
Unless he’s yella…
thanks for putting up the links. you’re a good man charlie brown.
you should really try to incorporate an anti apple logo on your site. hater…
hahaha

Hmmm, now I’m gonna have to look it up. I can’t remember (but it’s the one at the top-left of the Eastern Plaguelands)
It was my guild, and actually they did come back…I just exaggerated for the comedy of it. In reality, I hooked back up with them, we went a bit further into it, and then I had to leave because my son woke up crying.
Tony’s definitely yella re: WoW. I think he just doesn’t like playing games on the PC.
Haha, I would do that, but they’d sue me! 😉

Ah, Strath. One of my favorites.
That place always terrified me when i was on that level (`60+).
At 80, you’ll be able to go back through and solo it. Now that’s fun.

Yeah, I’m looking forward to stuff like that, both from the “fun” standpoint and being able to help other people at those “lower” levels heh.
