IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING ...

Yes, I did indeed drop off the face of the Earth. I was walking to my car, just minding my own business, when all of a sudden, I took a grave misstep, and fell off the Earth. I'm not quite sure how it happened. One moment, I'm walking along. The next moment, I'm floating in the vaccuum of space. I guess that's what happens when one drops off the face of the Earth. Floating in the vaccuum of space and stuff. I remember thinking, "Jeez. How weird. It's almost like I dropped ... wait a seond! I actually have dropped off the face of the Earth. I wonder if anyone is going to be curious as to why my website isn't being updated. Oh well. At least I have a legitimate excuse."

I'll stop lying now. The real reason is not that I dropped of the face of the Earth, but the other way around: The Earth dropped on my face. That's right. Or at least it feels that way. I'm up to my neck (and face) in projects. Freelance projects out the proverbial whazzoo. Studies that need to be pursued, finished and published. I'm also deeply embroiled in a public internet debate. Not to mention all the secret stuff that I won't mention (because it's secret).
