There's an old saying that time flies when you're having fun. It seems that time also flies when you're not having fun. I last posted on this board - my home away from home - on January 1st of this year, slightly more than eight months ago. I'm posting now because I don't want to be the cause of continuing worry or concern to my fellow members who have kindly expressed such thoughts during my absence. Also, I'm way late in expressing my appreciation for the words of encouragement and support from my fellow members.

Father Time is responsible for my long absence. For many months, I have been progressing through a procession of medical treatments and surgical procedures to discourage the Old Timer from afflicting me with reminders that I'm not a kid anymore. His interest in me now appears to be waning; so I feel up to resuming my duties as the Royal Librarian of this board. (For years I have been searching without success for the Agetec Handbook of Celestial Guidance for Earthly Duties, a very rare manuscript that sets forth in prosaic prose the duties of the Royal Librarian.)
