Is it also applicable to miniatures?

Not to the ones from the outside contractor.
Not sure about metal ones.

Last night at 1am we had a thunderstorm.
A few minutes ago rain and 50mph winds hit when I was carrying the scraps to the fox feeding station I built in the south 40. I only barely got back inside without a problem.

Folks, I am so sorry. Shipping is delayed this week. I fell and went to urgent care, which sent me to the ER. Turns out I had the start of a UTI, which caused the muscle weakness that caused the fall. My doctor wants me to rest and let the antibiotics and OTC painkillers work.
Again, my apologies.

Take of yourself and get well soon!

Jean,
You need to call up an 11th level cleric to cast HEAL on you (as in the 6th level spell). Should solve all your medical problems right away!
Get well soon!
My prayers for a swift recovery.

Again, I am behind. I had jury duty last week and an appointment with my medical oncologist yesterday.
That court case? It turned out to be a particularly icky case where the jury (with me as the foreperson) not only decided guilt, but the punishment. It involved a woman who had abused her child, and (in the penalty phase), it turns out she assaulted her husband. After seeing all the graphic pictures and hearing the testimony, we made our decision. I just wasn't together enough to focus on work afterward.
My apologies for being so late on everything.

An icky case involving the wellbeing of a child? IMO, and I suspect the opinions of many more here on The Boards, the wellbeing of a child takes priority over a game.

Jeff, it was important to me to protect the child AND the husband. I have been in the husband's shoes, and it was important to me to keep him safe, as well as the child. We, the jury, did our best to do that.

Folks, I am behind again. On Labor Day afternoon, I tripped pretty thoroughly. A friend caught me before I face-planted into the floor. However, we were at urgent care most of the afternoon. Nothing broke, but I thoroughly sprained my ankle and strained things in my foot. It is still swollen enough that I am wearing bedroom slippers to work.
On a positive note, my breast cancer still has not returned according to the surgeon who removed the cancer.

Jean,
Sorry to hear about your ankle - hope it feels better soon.
Really glad to welcome you to the cancer-has-not-returned-after-being-removed club!

Our shopping cart went down yesterday. It turns out there was a server configuration error. The cart is now back up.
We print so much that our printers were "early adopters" for defective toner! No one had seen this problem ever before, so the fact the toner was defective was a process of elimination.
Our printers were printing black bars where there were no black bars. After a complete rebuild, and an electrician checking the electrical supply to the building, the only thing left was the toner. After replacing that and cleaning the entire first printer, it printed correctly. A week later (to make sure that the first printer kept having no issues), the second printer was fixed. We are finally able to print your books.
On good news, we have one outstanding order from that time period and one that was placed just before the shopping cart went down. We shipped a bunch of orders last week and more are going out today. Thank you for your patience.
