Hey Guys,

Long time no talk. I had to drop out of CoH/V because of financial obligations, but I may be coming back here soon... the newest issue looks interesting.

I've got a few major updates in my life, for those of you who care...

#1 - I'm going to be a daddy! Right now I'm on a perpetual high, a mixture of petrified fear and unexplicable joy. The baby is due in February (8 months of my own life left...). We've picked out names alread... Mackenzie Michelle for a girl, Tyler Scott for a boy. Woot.

#2 - I've been buckling down, trying to get things going with my dream of working in comics. Today www.faithlesscomics.com went live. It's not much, but I've put a call out for an artist (single or team) and I'm going to fight until i'm dead. I will NOT give up on this dream.

So yeah...

Hit me up on AIM sometime, I'm always on.

-Fate

(PS, this message is too happy, so in closing... Eat me.)

My little Fatester, how I've missed you.

Congrats on the writing man, you'll do great. And major congrats on the upcoming kid. I would say you'll do great there to, but it's up for debate. ;)

Join the club, I'm doing the same right now. All deactivated accounts are temporarily activated until Sunday. I'm at least going to try it out.

*hugs* Felicitations, Fate!

I'm so happy for your wonderful news, both on becoming a parent and on your commitment to your dream. Both take incredible amounts of courage and love. Enjoy the ride.

Good to hear from you.

Many, many blessings,

Anyone else scared of the fact that he announced this just after the Omen remake came out? :D

Glad to see you're doing well, Fate.

Fate, your back and cheery/pissy in the same breath, just like old times. Congrats on the being a daddy, and starting your comics, you might be able to try starting with some Guru guest artists for an issu or two if you owe favors. Also, if you want back in game, maybe you can say playing this and working in comics makes the fee a tax write off :D

Parenthood and Fate, damn Afterglow, that does sound ominous.

I keep meaning to im you, but I keep getting distracted. Glad to hear you are going after that comic book writing dream man, gives me hope that I might push myself for a writing career one of these days as well. I used to love your stuff. Very intense.

Yea, check out the game, CoV is def an interesting game, and the new powers are pretty neat. In any case, good to see you are still out and about man. And good luck with all your plans.

Bah, I installed CoV but the updater never came online. *sigh*

And thanks for all the well wishes! I very much appreciate it.

As for the kid, I don't know if I should be happy for you, or terrified for the rest of the world...

Knowing Fate, he planted the seed on 6-6-06... Grats, man. You'll be a great dad. Hopefully... :look:
The images on your page are not working, at least not for me (Firefox browser). That is every image except the starving artist's cry.

You may THINK you have 8 months of your own life left, but don't forget... your wife is pregnant. As of now you are nothing more than a fetcher of bizarre foods and a tool for turning up the air conditioner.

But hey. Congratulations all the same!

And good luck with your comic. You know I'm rooting for you.

Yeah, I suck with web design, and I've been trying to use Microsoft Publisher. Not to sure about that, may go back to a simple txt page.

Priceless.

I should talk to you on AIM more often. :) Congrats on everything and let me know if you need anything. :)

Yeah, get ready to go buy some pickles & peanut butter or grapefruit & salsa, bud.

Good to hear from you and congrats about your baby!

Congratz on the baby! This is the most exciting time of your life! :D

Also, congratz on the writing thing. I can relate, I'm working on getting a book published.

The updater you installed with is having problems for many people. The more recent version of the uopdater handles problems with connecting to the patch server much better.

www.wawco.com/CohUpdater.exe is the most recent one. Feel free to scan it if you wish, but that's straight from my hard drive to my webserver so it should be clean.

Dude! You can't just brag about your kid's names without telling us how and why you chose those particular names.... *duh*

What's the story morning glory?

There's actually no special meaning behind the names. I picked out the girl's name... she picked out the boy's. Boring.
