Wow… so sorry I haven’t been on in quite awhile, ever have one of those periods in your life where everythign decideds to come crashing down at once? I’m headlong into one of those moments, but I think I’m finally starting to get some type of perspective on it; enough so anyways to take myself off of my self-imposed hiatus and reintroduce myself to the land of the living, and the posting. 
I know one of the last posts I made was about Brian’s Dad finding out he’s got cancer and how I lost my job that very same day. Both situations have progressed a bit. I found a job and the switch, so far, has turned out to be a blessing in disguise. My commute has gone from 40 minutes to 2 minutes and the nazis I once worked for are now replaced by two very laid back friends that have gone into business for themselves, one of which has a best friend who’s brohter in law is Mickey Hart.
Brian’s Dad is improving, but his condition is still serious. He’s undergoing chemo and radiation both, and we’re all praying for the wheel of fourtune to keep turning in our favor. Luckily the cancer, while it has spread to his liver, bone marrow, spine, kidney and lung is treatable if done so aggressively since it originated in his colon - an area of the body that can be severely retracted if need be and still remain functioning.
Please keep us in your thoughts and I’ll be on the board as often as time allows.
P.S - to all of my OKP friends, (and you know who you are lol…) I’m sorry for not responding to all of your concerend PM’s and e-mials. Things have been crazy lately…
