It's now 2:45 A.M my time.

Consider this "The Devil's Playground". Where people can post their most absurd, rediculous, drunken, idiotic and unfathomable thoughts at 2:45 A.M.

"Fireplace" what a great word. What else would you call it?

Well, I destroyed the place with bulldozers and wrecking balls in one thread, and I stripped everyone naked in another. It's been a long day and I'm going to bed, Goodnite.

grasstain, per your comment on "everyone?" Might you wish to reconsider, even at 2:45 am?

I too am a late bird, typical day 6 am - 1am!
Not much down time except after 11pm for reading, papers, and writing. Days teaching, teaching, outdoors and family. An occasional meal and a hot cup of coffee seem to suffice.

G: Pushing 3am you start to get into the realm of spirits and phantoms. So, 1 am for me is enough for one day!

8:00am - 2:00am usually. But sometimes 11:00am to 11:00pm. Not often, but too often non the less, 8:00 am - 8:00 am, after which I die for 14 hours. Best creative period between 10:00pm- 1:00am. Prime writing time. Before 10 - lazy thoughts. After 1:00 - crazy thoughts.
Cheers, Translator

Well, on nights when "The Twilight Zone" airs on Sci-Fi, I'm generally up till 2:00 a.m. to watch that, after which things do get a bit strange. Still attempting to master the art of capturing this strangeness into the realm of fiction. Everything Bradbury said about ideas is true--BUT--with anything, there is that realm between "theory" and "practice," which I've found is where the REAL hangups lie!

Well, I'm here at about 1:30. If I don't have to work, my day is usually 12 a.m. to 3 or 4. Otherwise, who knows?

Not long after midnight--a few minutes after, to be exact. We'll see what the post gives as time posted.

Well, I've been up since about 3am when a good storm hit out here. In fact, it's still going on and my cable's out so I can't sleep. (I need the TV on as background noise)

Now I'm doing this too...

It's a good thing that I can still use my old dial-up internet connection or I'd feel REALLY cut off!

If grasstains finds it lonely here, I think he should buy or build himself a companion. Isn't there a Mr Fantoccini who could help?

Phil:

I think there was also a short story by the Russian author, Gogol, about a man who built himself a family. VERY strange!
