This is COB6, Command Push in the Red, All Stations Acknowledge, Over…

I gave a similar radio call once (albeit with a different call sign) to announce that contrary to recent reports, I was, in fact, not dead. And now as then, I am happy to report that I am very much alive.

I apologize for dropping off the net but suffice it say I have been in a running gunfight; not unlike the last time folks thought I was dead.

When that event occurred many years ago, I recall feeling happy, lucky, thankful and about another 50 feelings on a list before I could find anger.

Today there are a lot of feelings as well and every damn one of them start with anger.

Nothing illegal about being angry but I doubt that this is news that is universally seen as a good thing.

Anyway, I am back and will do my best to help heard the cats around here. Seems to be significantly more cats and a few with odd spots around here than when I checked out.

PS: Thanks for all the emails asking about me. Most of you emailers understand my absence.
