I'm unhappy to report I'll be away from AUE until the facility I'm moving to tomorrow gets wireless Internet capability. AUE discussions were an important part of my life and, in time, I trust they will be again. Good luck to all of you.

Thank you, James. I discovered today that I have access from a pleasant room, with a degree of privacy. The problem, I suspect, will be finding enough time. In any case, it is wonderful to hear from the group once again.

Bummer, Hopefully it will be a short hiatus, being connected to the world through the net is quite addicting.

In the mean time you might have a look at what O2 or Vodaphone offer in the way of connection via their networks. The hardware is just a thing a bit bigger than a memory stick that plugs into a USB port. I know someone who was in the same bind as you after moving house and they got one on a free 30 day trial by the end of which they had a proper connection and they sent the gizmo back.

Good thing you are not Charlie, for whom the Kingston Trio sang: Well, did he ever return? No, he never returned and his fate is still unknown. (What a pity! Poor ole Charlie.

Much as I enjoyed the Kingston Trio's lyrics, AUE's members have seen on at least three occasions -- I've lost count exactly how many -- that at least some Charlies return.

Is there maybe an adjacent network / hotspot on which you can piggyback? (With appropriate compensation for the owner, natch).

Acting classes, road trips and various activities, Internet access and other utilities, room and board and many of my daily essentials are bundled into the flat amount I pay each month.

You may want to look over posts for the past few weeks, to see another "old friend" returned from the cold. Franke (Cypercypher) popped in, just for a day, and stayed a bit longer. He is as prickly as ever, but, as always has some great information. >>>> I'm unhappy to report I'll be away from AUE until the facility I'm >>>> moving to tomorrow gets wireless Internet capability. AUE [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >(Cypercypher) popped in, just for a day, and stayed a bit longer. He is >as prickly as ever, but, as always has some great information. His must have been one of the thousands of posts I marked read, for practical reasons. He has made many thoughtful thread contributions in the past, which I've enjoyed, even when he is prickly, so I hope we see more of him.

Sounds interesting. We bit off more than we could chew during our first experiments with the art, taking on, at my suggestion, a scene from "Romeo and Juliet". We improvised, alone and in pairs, some simple scenarios, as selected by the director, the second time around, and things went better. >(Welcome back.) Offstage: Thank you.
