Can you beleive it? An actual update?! Well, I've finally had several hours away from RL craziness to sit down, fix my computer and recover much of what was deleted by Angelfire last month. And with the recovery, came the new site design. I hope it is easy enough to navigate, make sure to let me know if you are unable to access something. So on to the updating...Would you like to chat with RP? Several of the site members would to so I sent a letter to Mr. Patrick and his PR department asking him to come by the site for a little chat. I haven't heard anything back yet--and geez...its not like the guy is busy or anything so what's with that? ;-) Anyway, show your support for this idea but stopping by the poll and voting yes that Mr. Intensity himself honors us with his presence.
Speaking of....the man himself offers up some great dish on his new film Ladder 49 and all the training he received. Looks like his Holiness has earned himself another titel-honorary firefighter. I don't need to expand on how that thought raises his intensity level now do I?
An new month is almost here and that means new calendars! I will add several others on the first as soon as I get them. Submit your own today!
After this last Angelfire screwup, I lost several of the link applications that were submitted to me in April. Please check the affiliates list and if your site is supposed to be there and isn't let me know

A new month means lots of new stuff! And possible a new server if Angelfire doesn't stop giving me such a hard time when I'm trying to update! GRR!+HOOD+ is proud to award several great XF sites with honors this month. A special award of excellence goes to Sacha for her wonderful XF Art site. It has to be one of the best out there.
The new March poll is up. Thanks Nadia for the great suggestion. :-)
We have two great desktop calendars to showcase this month. A special thanks to Karen and Cassie!
As angelfire is giving me so much trouble while housing my First to Die Screencaps, it may be a while before they show up. In the meantime, check out Laura's great site for some great First To Die stills.

In +HOOD+ news, His Holiness has requested that we begin to celebrate his name in song. St. Monica was the first to respond and has written a lovely little hymn. Do you have some that you would like to add. Just send them to Lillystar2001@hotmail.com and I'll add them.I added a new Robert Patrick article regarding his work on First to Die. Don't forget that it airs Sunday at 7 PM CST on NBC.
Speaking of NBC, I added some pictures of Robert and his wife, actress Barbara Patrick, from the annual NBC Winter Ball.
In non John, Monica, RP or AG news, did you ever wonder what Gillian Anderson's new finance looks like? I did so I posted the picture here! They look very happy together.

HOOD has won another award! This award was presented sometime during January but due to my computer issue, I wasn't able to add it until now. A big shout out goes to Kristi over at Addicted to Skinner. Thanks!!At the request of luckyphile, I made a new DRR collage. It has been added to the gallery.
Also a new month means a new wallpaper. I call this one, Winter Blues.
I added three articles to the Annabeth section of the library.

Finally an update! After nearly committing an act of murder upon my computer over the last couple of weeks, I think I finally fixed the bug and will now be able to get on with the updating. Unfortunately, Valentine's Day has come and past so my whole february theme has been scratched for now. This is the look I came up with instead. Hope you like it! I really had a lot of fun making it. I apologize in advance for those of you who can not see frames. Unfortunately, my schedule is so busy these days that frames are the best option for me because it allows for easier upkeep.The February Poll is up and working!
A big thanks to Cassie for the great February Desktop Calendar. I'm still looking for March submissions so if you are interested read here!
Watch out for construction over the next couple of days. The portions of the site that have not yet been updated with the new look can be found by clicking here!. If you are looking for great updates, head on over to ATD and NFW for the latest John and Monica stuff.
