...and granted me several tasty months of contract
work for a certain large Seattle-area software
developer.  As this is basically occupational
caviar for a freelance game writer/editor, I'm one
gleeful critter right now. *grin*

So SHOW ME characters who are as happy as I am
right now!  I wanna see ear-to-ear smiles, evil
smirks, toothy grins, blissful faces, and the odd
roguish fang.

(I should also point out that my good fortune is
YOUR good fortune, as I will no longer be at this
laptop all day to catch dealer updates... ;)
