I have joined the exodus. If you want the reasons, check my broadcasts. If you don't have access to the broadcasts, shout me with your email address and I'll send you a copy. I wish I could say it's been fun, but for this last couple of months, it has mostly been just stressful. I'll leave Shameless Blog Promos and Broadcasts about new blog entries, but it is unlikely I will be here in any other capacity.

Oddly enough, moments after I sent out the broadcast that I was retiring, I discovered I had been suspended...rather funny in an ironic kinda way.

Keep well, all of you.
===============================
I am an American living in Cape Town, South Africa. I moved here several years ago, after marrying my much younger sweetheart, and have set up housekeeping in this amazing country that is an unexpected blend of the first and third worlds.
