Club Keanu's offline, don't know if anyone here's checked it out. It's nearly 1pm in NY, just went for a look and it's offline. I'm so...vexed. I think I'm suffering from withdrawal. Damn it. Damn it.

I'm not angry at Chicks, I understand why she did it and I don't blame her at all.

But damn it, CK's offline!!!!!

It's only the off-topic boards on the forums left, though - the announcments, creative corner, words & pictures, music videos, off-topic chat. The actual Keanu-based stuff is gone.

! Have you read Good Omens? It's a joint work by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, and it is awesome.

Meanwhile I've written about another thousand words of the fanfic; will eventually type it out sometime today.

"Good Omens " ???
just finished it last night ...
are you psychic or what ?

yes, it is awesome....
and I bet Akiva Goldsman read it too

now I have to see 'The Omen" ( 1976) . must confess I haven't seen it yet ... apparently the novel is also a parody of that movie... in a way.

and on to much more reading....
I need a sabatic year ! no, make it two...
make it a lifetime

OH! I only started visiting the CK Lounge after the closure of K-Web. I never joined but went for the eye-candy. I will miss that Pants thread and Canadian RR's daily pic!! *sob!*

I was so upset that K-web didn't hang in there till after the release of TDTESS as the info and news updates were so up-to-date. Things will be worse now there's also no CK

there's still K.net

http://keanu-reeves.net/

and search engines...

or there could be a 'news' section on this site also ; we all could post links to the 'latest findings'

memo to the webmaster ...

^You can't be lazier than me (it's really just not possible). I signed up for Google alerts. Now, whenever Keanu's name appears online, I get an email with a link to it, so I can check it out. Easy-peasy, lemon squeezy!

Anakin--I thought I was the only one who liked to write long-hand and then type it up! I dig that way of writing, the initial burst of creativity seems to flow out of me very easily by hand. Then I turn a more critical eye toward the stuff as I type it out, and in this way, I edit as I type, so it's like the second draft.

And I don't even do that. I don't bother searching out Keanu stuff via search engines, because it's too much work. I just hang around the fansites and see what comes up. That way other people do the work for me.

Same here.

Though initially this was borne out of a need to make the most of my limited time on the computer.
