Hoffman's Hiatus Has Halted
« on: Mon, 15 June 2015, 14:14:29 »
Okay, superfluous alliteration aside, this is (semi) serious.  I've been largely AFK for the last three weeks, due to moving house twice and not having internet until this week.  I have been stopping in and participating in "low commitment" threads (mostly off topic), which you may have seen, but I've been neglecting PMs and actual business. 

Just wanted to give a heads up to everyone that I'll be working through my backlog of PMs and am finally starting to be more active as of today.   :thumb:

That's all.   :cool:   Missed you guys.   :-*   

Carry on!

Excuses excuses
People in the 1980s, in general, were clearly just better than we are now in every measurable way.

The dumber the reason the more it must be done

No, it's not a problem!  :)  I sometimes do miss messages, so I actually appreciate those reminders.   :thumb:   I just hope you didn't think I was actively ignoring.   :-[

Welcome back!  I hope you have everything all settled in now Hoff.  I completely empathize with you about this because I have to go through this myself very soon.  It's very unsettling until you are settled. 
Especially moving twice!  Oh man what a mess that must have been!

P.S. I hope you double-checked all those boxes and made sure everything is accounted for.  I hate losing my stuff when I move!
