I may or may not have committed a couple of minor vehicular transgressions after leaving work early and listening to this very loudly on the way home. :ridinghorse

Been patching for 5.5 hours and currently at 80% :-/ Yet another proof that Germany is stuck in the digital stone age. Sometimes I hate my ISP...

Hmm might be the start of a trend across the galaxy, I like it.
It's easy to tell who my characters are, all their names begin with Kaur ... and probably aren't wearing pants.

Kaurix, Kaurick, Kaurith, Kaurak, Kaureth
Kaurich, Kaurik, Kaurok, Kaurek, Kaurax
