Episode VI: The Return of the Rusty Shackleford
You may have noticed that my posting has been rather on again off again all summer. Where have I been? I'd tell you but I'd have to kill you. Suffice it to say it's a private matter.
I will say that I've been on the road for the past two months, it was rather unexpected, and that it was urgent. So much so that I told almost no one outside my immediate family that I had gone or where I was. I was home a day or two here or there, but other than that I've come to learn one thing about this great land of ours: there are Wendy's in nearly every town. Thank God for that!
The posting I was able to do was mostly from hotel rooms on my laptop and over the last week from my new iPhone.
I'm home now and since I have a day job commitment I should be here right through the end of the semester. My apologies to all those who I left in a lurch and for the hundreds of e-mails I've been forced to ignore.
Now, where to begin?

PS--As you can see I have too many e-mails to check. If you have something that is urgent or still relevant you might want to resend.
UPDATE: Okay, you caught me. I spent my summer training with Jeff G. to enter the octagon.
