    Here but barely

    Hey Guys,

    As the BN guy with the most posts (and correspondingly, way too much free time "no life"), I did not want to shock anyone with my lack of presence lately or in the near future.

    I just got back from a social service conference and a few things have popped up as well. So here is what I am looking at:

    1. My employer is paying for me to go back to school for a 2 year management training program, mostly via correspondence with some face time at another location 14 hours away.
    2. I have a paper to right before the face to face time and need to study and write that.
    3. I will be gone from May 13-19th for said face to face time.
    4. I will be hosting a conference in my home town from May 6-10!

    So until about May 21st my time here will be hit and miss.

    I will keep pick 'em going though!

    Just an FYI
