It&#8217;s expected to return to service&#8230; soon. But, anyhow, that gives us an [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As many of my 3D world friends know, I&#8217;ve become something of a recluse in recent years. But a recent 2 week, strict self-quarantine (spiked by an elevated temperature that lasted 4 days or so and disappeared) tested my hermetic mettle. So to speak. I found my already poorly integrated personality fragments quarrelling and pouting [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A new version of this song written back in July, 2001. I&#8217;ve always felt guilty writing joke and novelty songs &#8212; and I&#8217;ve always gone ahead and done it anyway &#8212; and all too often I haven&#8217;t been shy about sharing them. Always the kid in the back of the class. Anyhow, somehow, over the [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It is often said that trouble, trouble, at any rate, that doesn&#8217;t kill us, makes us stronger. But there are times when you&#8217;d trade all life&#8217;s hard-learned lessons and ennobling sorrows for a little rest&#8230; a break in the action&#8230; the pain subsiding into a dull ache&#8230; even for a little while.

The places they&#8217;d go. The things they&#8217;d do. The projects they&#8217;d pursue together. The dreams. Gone. He knew in an instant they were as gone as though they&#8217;d never been.
