I'd say it was all my fault, but this was actually a more recent
addition...

I follow the crowd to the AIGR.  I buy two pointy-ear mutations, one for
each head.

	Alright, that's it.  I'm going to the AIGR.

I do _not_ go to the AIGR. I go around throwing orange pumpkin pies at the
houses of players who are at the AIGR.

I have very much enjoyed working alongside ThinMan, and I wish him all
the best. At the time that Guy Fawkes left the bench, and the game, I
could not have asked for a better fellow Justice.

So: the original Supreme Court is now understaffed. I seem to recall
that there are currently no Ungrafted Justices or (other) understaffed
Cortices. (Is this information on any of the web pages? If so, I was
unable to locate it.)

It is possible that I will also choose to step down and let this
Cortex be destroyed. Until I come to a decision on this, though,
anyone who is eligible to and interested in filling this vacancy
should send me email.

I will not call for a retraction on this, however I will note that the
trinkets I gave Alfvaen and Vynd were not accompanied by private clues.

Subject: Acka: Vacation

Btw, I thought I'd come back from vacation, but I've been loosing my marbles
for a few years now. So I come back from vacation now by doing all actions
(and more!) that I need to do in order to come back from the vacation I'm
coming back from and from which I thought I had already returned.
Previously. Erroneously. Obviously. Right.

I've proven I had a thick skull. I also need to do some kind of violent
penance. Please include me.
