I think my ears were ringing...
Hi everybody! It is nice to be thought of, and I thank you all for saying nice things about me. I realize that I may have left here under less than ideal circumstances, and sincerely hope no one was seriously damaged or offended (HI LOKTAR!). I actually thought of returning several times over the years, but eh, life happens. I mean real life happened. Yes, I have remarried and currently have a daughter again. I got through college and Americorps, and am currently in grad school for social work. So, you know, I don't think I'm quite the same guy I was back then. Anyway, yeah, thanks. It's good to be back on a limited basis. I doubt I will have the time or energy to be the annoying post-aholic I once was.
Oh yeah, pickles. I'm fond of the "sandwich stackers" variety myself, not only are they already flat for sandwiching, but they are easy to cut for potato salads and tuna as well!
