remember the BOLO that was put out ? If he says certain things , the military might get a call in response to that BE ON THE LOOKOUT notice.

Three digits. In the US, that could be 911, but other nations have different emergency code standards. His problem will be if he can find someone who will believe him when he mentions he and his two friends abducted an alien from the recent spaceship crash that the authorities are calling a small meteorite strike. Police and various authorities who don't have clearance are just going to call him crazy, hang up, maybe make a report, and let it go into the ether. Or a cop will appear on their doorstep, and blanche when he comes face to face with an alien. One of the two.

If you need a hiatus too badly, you spend the time resting instead of getting ahead, then you start back with no padding, and you end up in the same boat again quickly.

But if you take too long a hiatus (which might not even be long enough, if you have a lot of burnout or fatigue), it's hard to get started again...

Thank you making this - I have enjoyed it immensely thus far.

Funny update to my previous posting problem: now the captcha shows up too far to the *right*, but not as badly as it used to on the left (it was consistently far left for months), so I can see all the images (just not quite the entire images in the right-most column). Makes getting it posted less ridiculous.
