Hi, Dopers! Due to a series of unanticipated life changes (and computer problems I was too lazy to address), I’ve been away from y’all for several months. During that time, I was able to lurk but unable to post. I’m pleased to report that life order has been restored and, therefore, I can actively return to the Dope. I’ve missed you guys! ---

Now I know what Leaffan means. Hi, jayrey, nice to make your acquaintance. I am sort of the board punctuation screw-up, and I post too much, I am an insomniac who gave up trying to sleep. My lil’wrekker went to University last fall and I have alot of free time to kill, so here I sit. ---

> [@Leaffan](#): > > They have a legitimate shot of going deep. I like their girth. Hmmm. I’m not sure about that for this season. I think they’ll just be stringing us along for a couple more years. ---

Hi, **Beckdawrek**! Nice to meet you, too. I read some of your posts during my semi-self-imposed hiatus from the Board. Don’t let anyone tell you that you post too much. It’s a message board, fer heaven’s sake! Aren’t we supposed to be posting on it? Thanks for the welcome! ---
