Just letting our esteemed DM know that, after tonight, I will be out of the country on vacation for the next 2 weeks or so.

I will still try to check in whenever I can, but please feel free to NPC Bo if necessary so that my absence doesn't slow down the updates.

Thanks!

Well there you go. Have a good one OM, while you're at it. :)

BTW, I learned a valuable Thanksgiving lesson recently. Panera's menu has Turkey Chili at X (kind of surprising number of) dollars for a .4 lbs paper cup of it. It's really good. But, the day after Thanksgiving Leftovers Friday Day (Saturday), I can make about 8-10 lbs of that stuff. And not tell anybody it's turkey chili, and not beef. So as not to spoil the delectable fun for anyone.

You will need:
-All of the dark and white meat you have in the fridge
-1/2 lb. of pinto beans (soaked overnight or boiled for 30 minutes at sea level or 1 hour on boiling range)
-Green peppers, ripened red green peppers, jalapenos, serranos, habaneros, Jamaica snake peppers, Naga peppers selectively bred in the U.K. for utmost chemical potency
-Add salt and pepper to taste and serve :)

Hey OM,
This if-then order relied on Faron taking a certain action, which he didn't take. So Bo doesn't attempt to remove the seal from the door.

For clarity's sake, here Faron is calling for everyone to flee. Is he also actually fleeing? Thanks.

Yes, he's belatedly listening to Long Bo's advice and running for the door they entered by. Hoping to come back after some healing. Feet don't fail me now!
