Hi, everyone! Hers and Hers and His Online now officially open! The address is http://s9.invisionfree.com/HHH_Online. I put a notice at the bottom of all the tv.com game threads that the games were forwarded there. I hope I don't get in trouble for advertising, but I guess it doesn't really matter anymore if they ban me! Anyway, I won't be on here much anymore, except probably for the next few days to tie up loose ends. So good bye, TV.com, and I hope to see you all at the new forum!

Hey guys, I just finished the banner logo, and I have to say I'm very pleased with the results. That means I can open up the forum tomorrow! Excited? Me too. I'll be happy to leave this place. Now I just have small administrative tasks to do, like writing up the guidlines and such, so I'll get to those tomorrow afternoon. Wow, you know, it was last Wednesday when I said it would take me a week to complete. Talk about an accurate prediction!

Just thought I'd let you all know that the forum's almost ready to be opened! Pretty much the only thing I have left to do is design the banner logo, which I'll hopefully get to tomorrow. I just finished applying the color scheme, which was very tedious to sort out. After trying several times to make a brown and orange scheme and failing miserably, I finally decided on one to download instead. It's not brown, I'm sorry to say, but I think it looks good, anyway. Everything is from Invisionize except for the background gradient, which I made at Absolute Background Textures, and elaborated on in Photoshop. Here's a little sneek peek for ya! I hope it meets your expectations. Oh, and I found another great Smilie website yesterday, so we now have eighteen more to choose from, lol. I really need to quit now... (stands up) Hello, my name is Rachael, and I'm a smilie-holic.

Hi, everyone. As you know, yesterday, I started to make a new Three's Company board for all of us as an alternative to this site. I had it in my mind to go with Ezboard, but they impose upon you a one-month trial gold membership. ...Which would be great for now, but I can't get them to tell me which features will be dropped after the trial period expires. What a horrible surprise it would be to have all of my customizations deleted and the board to revert to a standard generic forum. Anyway, I literally spent hours trying to find one with all the features I wanted until I finally decided on an Invision Power Board. Although I'm having a little trouble finding my way to customize the template, it does have some pretty cool features like no ads, unlimited posting, custom rank titles, avatar uploading, and a customizable library of smilies. I'm going to need your input on a few things: 1. What color scheme should I choose? 2. Are there any particular smilies you want to be included? 3. Can you come up with some rank titles? (Example: "Salad Man" or "Stuffed Giraffe") Well, I'm off to go smilie shopping! See you guys later.

Well, they did it again- transferred all of our nice, convenient games to the fun and games forum. I received six messages from a moderator telling me my score was reduced for deliberately posting excessive games in the wrong category. This is starting to be just as much about the right to be heard as it is about accessibility. I'd start a petition or something, but I'm afraid I'd get banned. Damn, we're the only ones who frequent the TC message board, anyway. The games weren't getting in the way of anyone's enjoyment of the show discussions. This just ticks me off. I almost feel like leaving the site for good, but I really enjoy talking with you guys. ...Oh well, back to sorting through five pages of threads.

I don't usually pay much attention to the advertisements, but this one is annoying the heck out of me, for some reason. I don't know if it's his stupid expression, or the gobs of pie filling down his shirt, but everytime I see it, I just want to punch his lights out. Lol. Has an ad every bugged you this much?

Well, I decided to commit myself to learning another piece on the keyboard, this time Clair de Lune, by Debussy (the original, not an arrangement). I had been working on a couple of Chopin's Nocturnes, but after playing them over and over... and over... and over again, I was starting to get sick of them. So, I'm taking a break by learning this piece. Clair de Lune is very well-known, like most of the ones I choose to learn. You've probably heard it before. I'm pretty sure it was played during the fountain scene at the end of Ocean's 11. Anyway, this one ranks 7 ouf of 9 on the toughness scale at musicscores.com. (1 being Ode to Joy, 9 being Flight of the Bumblebee) ...So I think I'm doing pretty well considering that when I started self-teaching myself three years ago, I was at skill level 3. (I wasn't exactly a beginner, since I had piano lessons when I was nine.) The entire piece is six pages long, and so far, I've learned the first two. I can tell it's going to take quite a while to complete, but I think it's worth it. Now if I can only get it out of my head...

I finally went shopping for new clothes a few days ago! I was in dire need, since about half of my wardrobe dates back to '02. I think it goes without saying that my fashion taste has more than slightly changed since I was 14. :) I went to Penny's and Sears, and found two pairs of jeans, three pairs of shorts, one pair of capris, and two shirts. Not a whole lot, but enough to keep me satisfied for a while. I still have a ways to go to complete the wardrobe makeover project I started last summer. In other news, my website has completed its second month of operation. I am pleased to announce that the monthly visitor total has doubled that of last month! Twelve thousand visitors and counting! You know, I've noticed a lot of the Three's Company forum regulars have disappeared. Where are you guys?!? Wolf has been absent for two months, and I also haven't seen Yoester, The_AG, or Stevela around lately. I hope you all are o.k.

I don't think I like this new "Fun and Games" forum. Why can't we have all of the games together in one spot? It doesn't make sense to break them up into two locations. Now I'll have to muddle through three pages just to find the Three's Company Games. All I want to know is why? How is this better for anyone?

Ok, I'm officially in agony. Open for Business still hasn't arrived yet, and they shipped it a week ago! There's still a chance it could come today, though, since the mail's been painstakingly slow lately and hasn't yet arrived. I really hope so. On the bright side, my Adobe Photoshop/Premier software is coming tomorrow! That's also the day season six of Three's Company releases in stores. So I've got a whole bunch of goodies coming my way! Now mailman...uh, woman... mailperson (for the sake of being politically correct), please come soon and end my suffering, lol.
