Hello everyone!

Administrator

I want to let the forum know that I'm alive and fine.

I realize I've vanished for a month, and after speaking with Gary earlier today I'm sorry if some members of the forum were concerned for my welfare.

Hit some bumps in the road that knocked me offline while I had to deal with drama amongst family and close friends.
Hopefully those issues are under control and behind me now.

Apologies for shirking my responsibilities here. I hope you all can accept that.

Jim - As said earlier, you made my day by calling! Probably my week.

We had so many theories about what had happened to you, but I'm so happy to know you are well.

Jim, I'm just glad to see you back. A lot of us were worried when you just vanished, my fear was that you had been either in an accident or Lil' Red had fallen on you while you were underneath.
