Also, I installed a video card in my PC and screwed it up So my PC was in the shop for over a week. At work, we have actually gotten quite busy. I have spent some long days working on a classified project. When this happens, I am working on a PC with no internet access so I wasn't posting from work.

Yeah...I realize now that I missed this place

Thanks guys!
Great to hear from you, Allan. I had missed your excellent posts as well. Thanks for the update, and don't be gone so long next time - you see it worries us!

I got the PM from Jason (aka jasonbellevue) asking if everything I was alright. All has been well over here. I haven't been online as much because I wanted to spend as much of the Summer outdoors as I could. The weather has been beautiful all season long and I wanted to go out and travel, see places, get myself reacquainted with some old friends, party it up just a little, and do some other fun activities. So far, this summer has been very eventful and its not over yet.

I am also preparing to move to a new place later on this year so fixing up the house and getting everything straightened out for that has cut into my TRF time as well.

So I just wanted to apologize to everyone for being absent from TRF for such a long time and on such a short notice. I really appreciate this thread so much and all the members who expressed how much they missed my presence here. Reading the posts has really made my day and I have some truly great friends on this forum. Thank you again!

Ill be back to posting again like normal real soon! You can count on that! Hope everyone has had a nice summer season, or winter for my friends in the southern hemisphere!

Jerome
Thanks to you for the great update as well, Jerome. Don't be a stranger - we miss our friends here on TRF!

Interesting bunch, here on TRF. I'm back from Thailand(mainly business), and a health scare. There is nothing like the potential for not breathing any more to straighten out your perspectives. I like this place and the banter, but sometimes there is too much repetition of the same stuff, so I've been sitting out, but checking in almost every day. The 'Big Split' where some of the 'heavy posters' have moved out or on, I think is an interim development. I doubt the new site will take off, because its format is poor, seems somehow dense. Only the Shadow(and JJ, of course) Knows.......
best,
dan

ahhhhhh...I'm glad at least one of my threads had led to a GROUP HUG!!!

Welcome back guys!!

With that in mind....I'm off in a couple of days...for 2 weeks of driving the northern states with the kids before school starts.

Gave my 10 yr. old daughter full gratis...and she's planned a trip to Sun Valley Idaho for a week..then another week of driving around Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons at Jackson Hole....

SO..............if you don't hear from me until the end of this month.....that's why!

Bubba.......behave!!
