More on this later.
Amused, I get to quote myself....
That loose end and I went off clock a couple years ago when she retired. And we've been doing vacas last couple years. Thus, as a result of another vaca just concluded:

I am stepping back from the boards.

You all, guys and gals, have been a breath of fresh air compared to other boards.
Pubs, keep the wind in your sails (but feed Fluffy more often).

Well, glad to have seen you around! Stop by every now and again to say hello and let us know you're alive. At least, wave to us from the pier as we sail past! Hoist the colors if you ever need a berth, and safe travels, wherever they may take you!

Say what? You do realize you have to get permission for that or Fluffy will be eating well, right?

Cleaning out my garage thoroughly after 35 years and countless car builds and whatever else I did in there I rented a 20 yard dumpster and it's all most full already at this point I would rather have the useful space instead of a cluttered mess

I wish there was more I could contribute but for reasons relating to my personal life and changes in the P4P environment, I just not very active anymore. You do what you need to do. FWIW, I have plenty of good memories of my time here.
