I hop on here every once in a while, and it always makes me happy to see that Fadran is still going strong.

After some consideration, I have decided to take an indefinite leave of absence from the Shard. My reasoning is twofold.
First, my summer is getting pretty busy. Currently I am working on a political campaign, running a lawn mowing business, serving on the board of my local civic association, and practicing for a play (plus, summer vacations).
Secondly, I would like to purpose to spend a little less time in front of the computer.
So - goodbye! Y'all really are great. I'll miss you. I'll probably pop in now and again to say hi, so I guess this isn't goodbye permanently.

During the Hundred Years' War, French forces captured the town of Jageau, held by British nobleman William de la Pole, Earl of Suffolk. Suffolk himself was also captured - by a regular soldier, which was quite humiliating.
But Suffolk, being an enterprising man, denied the French this humiliation by, just before being taken captive, knighting the soldier who captured him. There was nothing so very embarrassing about being captured by a knight, after all.
It was a win-win. Suffolk saved face, and the French got a legend in the newly-made Sir Guillaume Renault. The end.
