Re: Still here (lurking)

Still here (lurking)

Thought I'd better check in. Been a while. Haven't been tying as much lately, other things going on. We moved over Christmas weekend, and I managed to take a tumble down some stairs, but didn't break anything in the box I was carrying. Did crack a couple of ribs, and really aggravated old "Arth...
