Like Marianna I too will be away from the board for sometime.
As Anna suggested, this thread is for people to announce their absence.

Just so I don't forget, I was gone last week at a Boy Scout summer camp with my troop. This Thursday I'll be leaving for the Junior Leader Training course I'm on staff for. I teach younger Scouts how to be leaders. I'll be gone until August 11. I may have internet access there, but I don't know.

I'll be heading for parts Northern on Wed., the first, but will check in here first! Back either late Mon. the 6th. or Tuesday the 7th. I'm not sure yet. I expect to have very little internet access, but if I get any, I will come here and check for messages. I can't be sure of accessing my e-mail, I found out.

As of Thursday, Aug 2, I will be off-line for prolly about a week. That's the day the movers come, and the bad men will snatch Mr Mac from my loving arms. I trust Faldage will keep me apprised of the goings-on here.

I have failed to answer some PMs, and I apologize for that. The dern thang takes too long to load, and I am now in a frenzied packing mode.

I will miss you all. Behave yourselves during my absence

... Happy trails, Avy and Jackie; boa viagem, Marianna -- and JazzO, congrats on your status as "Linguaphile of the Month."

I hope when I return to this forum it will be filled with posts about words, as was the intent.

As Garrison Keillor, a US radio broadcaster over tsuwm and Fiberbabe way, says, "Be well. Do good work."

Off to parts north her Mac trudges, she following hours behind....

Be careful, Faldage! The cat might be away, but she left a camera to record all the mice at play. Cards and cigars now, but runnin' for our lives next week, it is!



Deal me in, anyway.

Meow!

What's the word for movers who call up at the time they're due to announce they are postponing pick-up to the next day, after you've practically arranged your entire life around them?

~~~
...and yes, Sparteye. Spies will be at work during my absence.
