Q: Mystic Elevator -- If the Collapsed Room, Secret Passage, Secret Stairs, or Revolving Wall lead to the Mystic Elevator, does the counter stay there even when the elevator moves?
Abby: You say that you have had counseling. Has your son? If the answer is no, urge him to get some and get his life in order. Should he refuse, make it plain that you will no longer tolerate his verbal abuse and again screen your calls. The longer you allow your son to cause you pain, the
longer he will do it. He's an adult, and you have suffered enough.
Q: Can all omen cards except for the Dog, Girl, Bite, and Madman be dropped, traded, or stolen?
Abby: I think sometimes God lets us know how it would feel to be without something we love without actually taking it away, to teach us to be more grateful.
Q: The Axe, Spear, and Blood Dagger all state "Roll x additional dice when making a Might attack with this weapon." Does this mean you don't get any bonus when you're defending aganst someone else's attack while carrying the weapon?
Abby: There is nothing "wrong" with you. You are not the only wife who has felt this way. What the Army failed to tell you is that there's a period of readjustment not only for the returning soldier, but also for the spouse who was left behind. The solution lies in communicating your feelings before you explode.
Q: Can the Toy Monkey attack multiple times in the same turn, if it is carried through several rooms containing monsters and/or explorers?
Abby: Yes, cybersex is cheating. When someone hides something from a spouse or partner, it's usually with the knowledge that the spouse or partner would disapprove. Now, I have a question for you: Why are you wasting your time with someone who sneaks around looking for other sex partners? Romances like yours don't have happy endings. Be smart. Get checked for STDs and call it quits with Vito.
Too bad he's such an insufferable prick. (UltraSPARC III architecture crisis anyone?)
