It has been three years, I think. Maybe four.

As it's been pointed out, when news organizations started trying to truly fool people and everyone started doing it, it lost its novelty. Maybe it did years before I stopped. The first ones were well-received, the last few generated more yawns than laughs. I thought my aromatherapy one was my best, but by that time I think the concept was as old as Faith Hilling.

I'll be happy to try again if it ever becomes retro.

Thanks for the response Jim, I always enjoyed them. Evening know they are a joke, they still made me smile.

I appreciate that. Like I've said recently, there's a lot I need to talk about, and I'm as grateful for this community as I was 13 years ago when Tony and Josh and others (I haven't forgotten anyone) began bringing people together.

Your games are great and stand the test of time. Hell, I still play TCY to this day and love it. Hope your doing good and it's a positive announcement for your company.

Same here. I always check Solecismic.com every April Fool's Day just in case, because it was always something witty and amusing to enjoy.

Maybe you just need to pick a new day on the calendar and be the ONLY one doing it ... that would outside the mainstream.

We'll be here. Hopefully things are moving in a positive direction for you.
