Hey ladies and gents so sorry to have poofed like I promised not to, but alas, RL problems have once again trounced on my internet life.
I was abruptly, and without warning, taken down by the nastiest case of intestinal bug I have ever had. It wasn't pretty, and to make a long story short, I think that the environment has enough pollution already without dealing with what I was going through.
I'm back, recovering, and hopefully this won't happen again.
