Friends, and even those who would not consider themselves friends, it is time for me to take a vacation from SH. I love SH dearly and I love my friends dearly. I Have become addicted to SH and I must take time to back away and tend to other matters in my life.

I need to spend more time focusing on my work, with layoffs, shifts in staffing and added responsibilities I need to remain focussed on my work first and foremost.

I have also just been awarded a scholarship from the William G. Selby and Marie
Selby Foundation to pursue a new degree program full time. I will need ALL my spare time between work and school to focus on family and my responsibilities.

I will likely have little or no time for SH over the next two years and I wanted to explain why so my friends are not left hanging and wondering. I will miss our banter, I will miss the good debates and I will even miss the debates that devolve into a free-for-all mud slinging fest.

So, this will be my last week here for a VERY long time and I hope to hear from all my friends before the week is out.

Best Regards,
BrianD3-PWCM

    Lemony,

    Even though we never did agree on many issues, I wish you good luck and happiness in life. Really isn't that all we really need?

    Congratulations on the scholarship! It is good to see balance in one's life. SH opens doors of communication but is only one tiny aspect (actually minuscule) of who each of us is.

    I've only run across you on a few questions but I always support those moving forward in a real life challenge over these on line sites. I wish you very good luck on you work and on your new degree program.. I hope it all works out as smoothly as it can for you and that you learn as much from both places as you can.

    Best of luck to you!

    and no worries, Sodahead will still be here when you get the time to come back.. no matter what side wins in November.. the other will need a place to complain.

    Honey, everyone knows that we are married and they also know how much you love SH and love a good debate!!! Your friends can always send a hello to me for you and I will pass it onto you at home. And you are going to be right with how busy you are going to be sure! Love you honey!

    Hope you are not deactivating. But understand. Will hate to see you go, but the issues you have stated take for more importance than SH.
    May God bless you in your endeavor.
