| It's been a while since I last lurked or posted to this group.
Sorry to hear about Miracle's health problems, hope she's on the mend
with a quick recovery.
I'm currently unemployed.
Here's a tip: Avoid working for government contractors. Job security
is as solid as quicksand in this industry. One minute you're
babysitting the third fastest supercomputer in the world, then you're
looking for work the next. Oi!
The silver lining is, though, you get some time to bond with your baby
girls before they rocket out of childhood and into teenage apathy
towards their increasingly muddled and cranky dad. I still have
several good years of being Superman Daddy that can fix, resolve, and
mend anything before that, though.
Anyway, just wanted to raise my hand and let you all know that I'm
here again. And will be until I get work again and become too busy to
even lurk.

Oops, my sig is screwed. Now Debig shall rightly tar me with the
epithet "XXXXtard" or some other equally deserving title.
I've just started using a "real" newsreader instead of the Outlook
Repress one. So I'm still learning. Virginal, as it were. Be easy on
me.

Either that or something like:
That Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy.
