No column this week

My apologies to anybody who is expecting, anticipating, or otherwise awaiting my column this Friday, but we've been having some troubles with technology, health, and general attitude, so you get an extra 7 days to stew over what I said last week (or muse, or whatever). I hope to be back up and online next week with my latest thoughts clear and strong, but, in the meantime, please feel free to gossip here -- even about me (if it's scandalous, its probably half-true).

And, for those who usually receive my column by e-mail, please contact me ASAP. I've lost most of my addresses in the Confluence of Woes, and I really want to get things back to normal.
