Sorry for my somewhat pronounced absence here for the last little while -- at least an absence from posting.  Despite being super busy, I at least have kept up with the behind the scenes stuff here.  Sorry if the site has been a little flaky here and there -- it seems like some times the Internet gods just conspire against us.  Things seem happy and stable again at present.

Even when I'm not posting, I lurk exensively.  I can read the forums from my cell phone, but I can't post from it.  I try to keep an eye out for topics that I might have something useful to say.  Some days it seems like I've just got nothing new to share, but even on those days, the Staff here do a great job of pointing new folks to my old posts (where I may have spent hours composing a mini-treatise on a particular topic).  

All of the Staff really do an amazing job here offering help, moderating posts, etc., and I certainly appreciate it!

Those that have been here awhile know that I get busy from time to time and drop off the planet for awhile here and there.  I'm always lurking and watching even when I can't spare time to post.  Emails to staff at drbforums.com go to my phone, so if somethign pressing comes up, emailing me there should get my attention pretty fast.

For you folks in the Tampa Bay area, I just have to throw out a "Go Rays!".  Can't believe we're headed to the World Series.  Worst to first.  If they can win, that will finish the set (the Buccaneers won the Superbowl, the Lightning won the Stanley Cup, so now it's up to the Rays).

Chat more later.  Have to get some sleep for now.

Hey Brian!.....Great to hear from you....we miss you when you are not vocal!   Glad to hear all is well....we all have "life" interfere with our board activity from time to time but knowing you remain the solid rock in the background even when it does for you is amazing.
