Yes, the word is Respect. We are not talking about a song that was written and released by Otis Redding in 1965. Or made famous by Aretha Franklin in 1967. And was recently listed as #5 on the Rolling Stone's chart "500 Greatest Songs of all time.

The word Respect means to hold in esteem. Someone mentioned this word to me this week. Which brought me to writing this post. Some of the young people today are not aware of what this word means.

We all need to show respect and appreciation to the Greers for creating this site, to Greg for working hard to see that we have fun games to play, to administration for their efforts to keep things running smoothly. Respect and appreciation go hand in hand.

But this is where I come in into the picture. As a volunteer helping to keep this site wonderful,I think the Mods need a lot of respect. We all work hard to make sure everyone is having fun. I can't count..... how many games I have had to restart, the nasty names I have been called, the phone calls put on hold because I am in the middle of a troll parade. The food that has turned cold also comes into my mind. And I am not complaining by any means. I chose to do this and I love it. The fun I have greatly outweighs the grief. I just want some of our new users to learn the word "respect" and to appreciate what we all have been given. A wonderful site, with wonderful people who care about everyone. So all you regulars out there who know this word, let's teach it to the new users. It will be interesting to see if they can learn.

We welcome McCoyEVP back from his leave of absence. Ah, the Village is a happy place. Now if BJBinty would get back from her internet problems, everything would be perfect.

Below is a story written by Bdog2509 and edited by Skladzien. The truth comes out!!!!

The Survivors

Once upon a time, in the year 2020, there were a few lone survivors left known as "The Village". The Lagbeast had ruled the world for many, many years, and killed almost all of the Kongregate population's internet. These chosen few fought back and brought up an army to fight this monstrosity. For years they fought it, installing better internet all over the world, and upgrading servers all over the world. Slowly they destroyed this threat to humanity piece by piece, Reviving room by room, until they were stunned by discovering that it was remaining in the year 2029.

"What could be the problem?! The engineers said if we upgraded everyone to full speed internet this beast would be killed forever!" Commander McCoyEVP said. "That's what we thought! We must find the problem!" MeMe44 the warlord says to McCoyEVP. "Aha!" cries out captain Snoddy, "I may have found the problem, a troll population in AAA have been helping this beast. I have sliced these trolls to pieces, In fact you're eating them for lunch today!".
Just then RemoWilliams staggers up to Commander McCoyEVP with a report of the days lag, "Sir! *hic* We cannot figure this out, It's still lagging!*hic*". So McCoyEVP, MeMe44, and Snoddy take a trip to see VanillaDreaming. "Yes..I have found the problem!" Says VanillaDreaming looking up from a wall she used faerie powers to turn into a television. "See there? It's a single slow internet I have pinpointed to the village. Find this source, And save us all."
They continue to search, until one day.. "Sir!!!Sir!!!!!!!!" Snoddy yells out to McCoyEVP. "Yes?" He replies. "MeMe44 and I have found the problem!" He says, "The lagbeast is growing because of this last remaining person with 56k dial up internet.."McCoyEVP Shudders at the sound of the words 56k dial up. "Who is it?" He replies. "It..It's Bdog2509. We visited him in his cave...And he refuses to switch!!!!". They all stand there with a look on their face that can only be described as " :O ".
The end.

Poems by zodel.......

One of our new regulars writes poems and here is a sampling of his work.....................


One day, the sun will rise, and with it, so will you and i, from our slumber we will wake, my arms draped around your waist, the love we have will never die, and will rise just as the sun and skies.

With these wings, we shall soar, our grace reaching for the sun, which i shall pluck from the sky, just to see your lovely smile.

Through these hands, a friendship runs, bonds stronger than the blood, an ear to listen, a shoulder to cry, i hope this friendship never dies.

As we soar among the sky, the cloud begin to blacken, as we wonder why, they begin to yell, they scream, they fight, they fling us from our unholy flight, as we we plummet from the skys, our wings black bloody and torn, we ask ourselves, why has heaven cast us out of the sky?

From this slumber, we shall rise, the dreams hidden in our eyes, as you look upon my face, you see things are full of grace, as i see into your eyes, i see beauty of no size, as we kiss upon our lips, we see love is truly bliss.

If you call me, i shall come, being shadowed by the sun, its grace and mine is yours to take, drink it as you would, water from a lake, but beware of that grace, it is not all you must take, As well as grace, you must take, the heart of mine, its love to great.
