Welcome back, Dick.

Life is quite the freaking adventure, eh man? A downsize is what moved me from Oregon to Texas, and last summer, I found myself reporting to a person at the same level as I who needed my well planned ratio and staff of direct reports to maintain their own ratios in a the job/company I came here for - and thus also found myself the victim of my own good planning and another's lack thereof. A few months later I landed - the paycheck is skinnier, but the stress level is as well. I guess I'm trying to say I empathize with the job thing.

But it's so good to see you posting, in good, or pretty good health. I was worried the ticker took you offline, honestly. We need to get your boys online here!

The sharing, well, I'm grateful you're back, man. Don't be a stranger, or, well, don't be stranger than you already are. We like you that way. You are a part of smallstreams.
