Jumbo Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 you guys know i'm an old-time firesigner Is this still on? Just fyi/fwiw/to whom it may concern---I have been vewy vewy busy with secret squirrel stuff this last year or so, as many of the news headlines in recent months would indicate if you really knew what you were reading, but i must proceed with the cover story: More than one matter---non-ES life stuff--inc. some issues that made keyboarding a literal pain--some ES stuff specifically, even some football/redskins/snyder related stuff--inspired, but then really extended my sabbatical (not my first, though my longest), and a very major factor i didn't fully anticipate was my liking semi-retirement so much that I amplified and extended it across all my platforms. A lot of my circumstance to frequently/conveniently connect to ES during my typical day had to do with certain timing/location elements of my work. So that changed, too, as the presence of laptops and pcs in my routine dropped significantly, and I remain steadfast in Luddite-like determination to go to my grave never having owned a smart phone, thus I don't use my phone to go online. So what was to be one of the long breaks I've taken several times in the past became longer than I originally anticipated. More details may be revealed depending on interest or relevance. One big diff this time around is that while I have talked to TK 2-3 times, outside of a quite brief scan a week or so ago, I actually have not read the board for approx 6 months! I think 5-6 weeks was my previous records. I presume little is changed, but I trust you all can bring me up to date as you see fit. Outside of that, you know I'm not much of one for starting "about me" threads and the intent here is just a community PSA as i didn't want to just drop this into RTT or other existent thread. I do note a ton of pms of course, most quite dated. I will get to the ones requiring it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see you back. I was worried, but I honestly thought you were just unable to handle anymore Trump talk so were quietly hoping the threads would police themselves and not have to deal with reports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 You expect me to believe infowars being banned from social media and you suddenly having time for ES again is a coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted August 8, 2018 Author Share Posted August 8, 2018 @twa there actually was a redhead involved for a brief time...again...but across the northern, not southern, border in bc,...i almost mentioned it just for you...she was far too wise to extend the matter and so i was repatriated and returned to paying my own bills hard to believe but i actually kind of missed more than a few of you folks and ty for the welcome backs...while i was not seeking such, i will be tracking those who do not join in to applaud my survival and will get them somewhere down the road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 One new thing that happened in your absence is that @Sacks 'n' Stuff has taken over as de facto leader of the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulSkin Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I have missed reading your posts, sometimes numerous times, to make sure that I come as close as I can to understanding what it is I think you're saying, I certainly applaud your survival, and your Luddite-like steadfastness in rejecting 24-7 connectivity.
