I know back in August he posted that he was on vacation. I hope it was somewhere nice and that he enjoyed himself…maybe with lots of fruity type drinks with umbrellas in them? I think he said he would be back around sometime after Labor Day. I hope he’s okay. There’s a lot of ignorance out there that needs him. So…Mr. **Cecil Adams** , sir…I am sorry your beloved Cubs didn’t make it. ☹ But, when you have overcome your grief, could you rejoin us again soon? We miss you. ---

Actually, if I’m not mistaken, Cecil’s a White Sox fan. I think he probably got some sort of perverse joy in watching the Cubbies tank. Happy ---

I thought I read somewhere on the boards he was a Cubs fan??? Well…if not, then I just look like a big old idiot. 🙂 Maybe he will appear anyway to mock me.
