The Admissions area is only for welcome posts to announce the arrival of a new inmate resident, and we encourage you to leave here and head out into the great big wide world of Tweb as soon as you feel comfortable in your new username.

    Hi everyone,

    It's been a while. I thought I would come back and check up on you all.

      Welcome back Darth Ovious.
      3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures --1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (borrowed with gratitude from 37818's sig)

        Thanks guys.

        So what has changed since I've been away?

        Any major conversions or de-conversions?

        Any sad news that I may of missed? I'm hoping not.

          As to your last question about conversion, Leonhard is a Christian again.

              I remember Leonhard. Used to read a lot of his posts in the screwball threads.

                  WHAT????????? This is preposterous. How can you resist the lure of bacon for this long?

                    This implies that I'm not supposed to. What utter silliness.

                      It's his interest in science. It's always the science lab he is blowing up.

                        He isn't the only source.

                        Btw, OBP, Sparko, mossy and Raphael are the owners of Tweb now.

                          That is a big change. It used be Dee Dee Warren and a couple of others.

                          EDIT: What did you do to Dee Dee Warren?

                              Sure, I believe you. No kidnapping was involved at all.
