The most boring time in your life and why was it boring ?
I spent three months staking out an Iranian-American explosives expert in Valencia. We were set up in a 4-story hostel opposite of the guy's apartment building. It was hot, but we couldn't leave that spot or we'd miss 'some bearded guy' coming out of hiding.

A few weeks in, I was sure this guy was on to us and we were just wasting time. Two months in, and I'd taken up dust painting as a new hobby. Close to the start of the third month, the guy finally left his apartment-- baseball cap, glasses, and that telltale beard. Then, it got exciting.

But the 12 weeks of just sitting around, that was excruciating.

Is Chase dating someone, like, right now?
...Maybe.

Before the current arc in Closed - Ultramarine. Or, really, right at the beginning of the game, Chase was still working out a temporary situation with Defne Dereli, daughter of the former Turkish Ambassador to the United States.

I had no idea what was in stored for Chase once Ultramarine started, though.

Due to recent revelations, it looks like this temporary thing might end a lot faster than originally thought.

What was the toughest decision you've ever had to make in ACME, and how was it compared to the toughest decision you had to make in your life, sir?
The most difficult decision I've had to make at ACME was agreeing to take the role of Director of Operations. It happened just after ACME Tower I disappeared. The agency was in chaos, there were people who believed I was to blame, and I was inclined to agree with them. I went into a board meeting for what I thought was the inevitable demand of my resignation, and discovered I was 'promoted'. Mainly to fix things, I figured, but taking the job did not initially feel 'right'.

The toughest decision in my life was deciding to sell my family home. My mother wanted to keep the house in the family 'forever' -- her word. I sold it a while back and moved my grandfather down to Florida. It was better for everybody.


Neither decision could be compared with the other, I think. They were both tough, separately.

    @Tenchi Masaki Out of curiosity, do you know if it's worth it to rent out GPU/CPU time on a rig like mine... Threadripper 3960X with a Titan X, 32Gigs RAM (for now... hope for more RAM someday)
    If people are willing to pay then yes it is

Kat also said she was going to clean out the 9th floor. Bruce let Hines know about it " That was told to me by ma a couple hours ago... I don't really care who knows my last name. I'm not one to drag into something, I tend to destroy everything.))

    Hey @Tenchi Masaki btw I did save my password after my last bout of computer trouble. This time however I saved the wrong password so. As for Jon Eckart, I DO use Chrome browser the problem is when we I get on another computer the passwords aren't stored. That's my current problem. So I'm either gonna make a new account or figure something out 'cause I'm not bothering boss man :D :D

    ((So... latest is... Google Drive: Sign-in <-- the appeal hearing (they didn't know I was recording) (I'll run it through some filters and see if I can clean it up) They/we have a tour of a potential place Thrusday at 1PM-ish like a block away... but there's no laundry (far as I know)... you can find it, 512 1/2 St. Germain St., St. Cloud Little tidbits... I brought up that if they're going after the folks, what about the (roughly) half of the rest of the bulding who all smoke in the building. ))

If it goes bad way, we're planning for what to send down to my place (the paintings and the movie collection and stuff, not to mention the rest of the records). They have to wait up to 10 days to see what the "appeal officer" says... but they might have something being that they were never caught smoking, it was just that there was smoke smelled near their door ))

    ((So... this is the place.. 512 1/2 W Saint Germain St #1, St. Cloud, MN 56301 2 Bedroom Apartment for $650/month - Zumper. You have to go through both bedrooms to get to the bathroom. Moving stuff in is gonna be a struggle (wall outside main door is like a 60-degree angle)... big desk (mine), big entertainment center (the folks), "things" are gonna be weird (no privacy). The folks want it (gas stove in an apartment, claw-foot bathtub)... not all of our stuff comes apart nicely))
