I just got back here after a four years, and have been happy to see a lot of people still here. I was looking around for you and a couple others to post. It’s great to have you back.

What is new with the Ujest’s:
I lost 55% of my hearing and now have tinitus 24/7 due to a bout with vertigo back in August 2004. ( The hearing loss is tolerable. The ringing in ear is wearisome. Medically speaking, the doctors and specialist are stumped so I have that going for me.)
My bowling average is up 5 pins.
Kids are awesome and doing great in school.
We got a cat whom the dog tolerates only because she is too old to whuparse. (The cat is presently curled up before me and the keyboard and trying to reach the keys with a paw and sleep at the same time.)
Family is in from Germany and we are having a blast with them here.
Glad to have you back and glad that things are looking up.
I know all about the ads. I don’t mind the ads. They keep me from paying $20 a year to get reacquainted with y’all. And who bothers to scroll to the bottom of a thread?
What’s been going on here? Not much. Oh, Hal Briston had an, er, ‘run-in’ with some sheep, and there was a coup that resulted in the SDMB now being run out of a server farm in Shenzen instead of Chicago, and Canada’s new Governor-General is a babe, and we retired the calamari in favour of something else, and the left-handed gay Pagan Esperanto-Canadian contingent of the boards ran for Parliament again, and next month I will be Officially Debt-Free, but other than that, not much…
P.S: I like your comic!
P.P.S: All this time I’ve been misreading your username as Chief Troy…
