One Month Since Last Post?

Where ya been, J.B.??

One month with no posts?  What gives?  Am I lost in an ice fishing shack on some frozen lake in Minnesota?


Nope.  The sign should read, "Gone to Watch UO Members Skate".


Or it could read, "Been Doing Lots of Internet Teaching & Strategies for Member's Only"

Couldn't Resist.  Such a "sweet" jacket...
