It's been a long time since I've seen or talked with a lot of you. I think the last time was the Fall MA and even then I didn't get to talk with most of youse guys -- too much frantic running around on my part.
You've all done a really great job with this board. Looks super groovy and the vibe is nicely nicely. I should find an old Martin Denny tiki music LP and play it while reading threads on this board.

Major snaps.
I'm still doing my thing over at the other board. Life is still crazy with my younger dog, Tekaya, now a year and a half old. We're doing obedience training, which is helping a lot, then I'm going to start her on agility training (doggie obstacle courses). Tekaya already knows how to climb trees so I think she's going to be a natural on agility equipment. Maybe she'll stop attacking the couch, my books, the cat....
I'm still at the same old software development job, continuing to watch my blood pressure rise and my hair go gray from it all. But hey, it's a job and I've got a paycheck!
Glad to see so many familiar screen names here....
