    The Daily Dose

    Hey everyone, a lot of events that have occurred recently left Random Curiosity in a pinch, well kinda ^^'. Divine was a great asset but unfortunately he has left for personal reasons, leaving Omni to once again man the fort on his own. Over the past few months I've noticed that the Daily Dose hasn't made much of a presence like it used to. It was a convenience since it supplied information that everyone looked forward to reading and I felt it made Random Curiosity unique in its own way. I've recently contacted Omni and offered my help by doing the Daily Doses in his place. I'm looking forward to working with all of you. -Sixthdawn
