Functional, anyway. At least one of my drives is still formatted improperly, but I figure I'll be back in l33t fashion in short enough order.

Can't complain. Oh wait, yes I can. But I won't.

Clotrimazole. It's a wonder drug.

Ok, here's my honest review of Crossing Over:
First, I was expecting far more slapstick from this series than there actually was. Grayhound is... well... it's Grayhound, JR can't help it if he was tragically born with an inflamed sense of the absurd. And The Files started going back down its Spider Ham routes with the triumphant returns of Pu Wing, Battle Armor Bob, and the Crustacean.
So at first I was bit disappointed that it wasn't more preposterous (sure, Chris had some fun... er, toys, pun intended, and giant phallic is always funny, but the storyline was too cohesive and intelligent).
But, that having been said, the storyline you guys did come up with was great, and I think it was a better choice to tell a real story than just a goofball crossover.
Both authors have done an admirable job of letting their characters shine, even the bit players.

JIM, and I say this with all sincerity, The Files is still the most original and best produced series on the web.
I don't think I can add much more to that.
