I'm certain he'll get a kick out of reading this 
Actually it's absolutely the opposite. I'm kind of embarrassed and feel very uncomfortable with this kind of public attention towards my person.

In fact, when I logged in and read this thread my first thought was to log out and never to get back. But they have told me than normal people do not act this way... yes, I'm really that
different 
Anyways, for the most part it's not my rather obsolete computer that kept me away (though having to set up my system twice in short time did contribute to it a lot). Let's just say... life is trying to kick me around a lot, and I'm trying to kick back, which didn't left much time and even less energy for AH (not necessarily a bad thing considering the amount of time I 'wasted' here).
Still, I hope to be able to check out the recent changes (Storch, icon ranages, 88), but first I would have to get my act together and finish the Stats, and even more importantly a few things that I have promised to some folks here a long time ago.

all.
