Sylum Top Ten: 15th Anniversary Edition (1st Question)

Sylum has been around now for 15 Years!  *shakes head*

We’ve decided to update our Top 10 Sylum Lists.

Figured this was a perfect time as we all could use some distractions.

We’ll calculate everyone’s answers and figure out the top 10.

So the more people who answer the better!

First One:  Name your top ten favorite characters.  (We only suggest not to list the Fab 6 as we all know everyone loves Nico, Warrick, Speed, Horatio, Tony & Jethro)

Sylum Inspiration: Michael Dundee

Oceania: Scientist

Michael Dundee has no idea who his father was. He was raised on the edge of town by his mother, who had been shipped to Australia because she was pregnant. She worked hard and he will always remember her smile.

She taught him to read and write. But mostly taught him to value himself and everyone. When she died, he set out to find where his place was in the world.

He traveled out to the Outback and found himself.

Dundee came back into town, and ended up meeting Max Cadbury. He liked the guy instantly, trusted him. Max returned the trust by letting him know about the truth of what he was and along with his companions.

It was this Michael knew he was destined for.

Sylum Announcement

COVID-19 AKA: Coronavirus

I’m sure all of you have received many emails from a variety of sources about COVID-19.  This isn’t one of them, not really.

Many of us are either working from home, staying home (some mandated, others in early precaution stages), and keeping social contact to a minimum – we’re finding a lot of time on our hands.

Just know that we’re keeping up with our goals of having a post go out a day, so you should have something to look forward to.  Though I would love to take this time and focus more on Sylum I’m actually working from home :(.  Though napz have been had *don’t tell anyone*.

So while we’re curled up on our couches, watching Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, those favorite DVDs that never come out of the player or reading some new books that you always wanted to read or that old book just love to read all the time – this would be a good time to catch up on Sylum!  Read it all over again.  All of it!  Make sure notes/comments to the authors.

The Manor has survived many things in history, this is just one more thing to be added.

If you need to talk to someone, reach out on the blog to get a conversation going.

And guys.  Take care of yourself.  Wash your hands.  Stay safe.  Be kind.  We’re all in this together.

The General.
