Not only have I been ignoring it, but so has everyone else. I haven't gotten a new Fonosta Establishment in over three weeks. And there's been hardly any activity on the Xappenshard Craze Message Board. It's quite true that I've been distracted by my new computer. But why no more Fonostas? Why so few posts on the Message Board? Ah, Obliviana is still in its infancy. If I keep on moving from this brief stall, I think things will be cool. I tellya though, if it weren't for all the time and energy I've already put into the game aspect of Obliviana, I would probably have to contemplate abandoning it. Another factor is that I have a vision for Obliviana. So I have to keep moving forward, even if I don't really feel like it right now. This is the tenth issue of OsoaWeek since the "official launch" of Obliviana. Ten weeks closer to my Summer 1999 deadline for Obliviana becoming a real company. Looks like I'm back to square one again. I do have "Obliviana Call" though. Rationally, Obliviana Call is very exciting and very promising. Emotionally, I'm very much discouraged about Obliviana Call and everything else. Well, I'll keep on doing OsoaWeek. And hopefully I'll break out of this funk soon. ------------------- GAME NEWS ----------- DAILY WINNERS!

We spent eight hours there. PACER: Why? CARNE: My sewing friend asked me to watch his store while he went to court. My Moisture Detection Friend had nothing better to do than hang out with me. We spent the whole time making fun of all the sewing crap. PACER: What was you friend in court for? CARNE: Oh, you know that town. He experimented with selling "adult" sewing patterns, and the township got all bent out of shape. It was some kind of First Amendment thing. I don't know. He said he'd stop selling the naughty goods--he said he really didn't care. But they wanted to fine him anyway. PACER: Wow man, that sucks. CARNE: What sucks even more is that the sex sewing sets have started to catch on--getting national attention and everything. They're kind of a hot item now. A few people even asked for them while I was at the store. I just told 'em to go to the porno shop across town. Heck, I don't know if that store has the sewing kits, but I'm sure those people will find something there to appease them. ------------------- XAPPENSHARD ----------- Xappen 12 is still unsolved.
