...<i>Only heard about this from that clown Borepatch.</i><br /><br />If you're in the business of referring to one of the smartest writers I know as a "clown", then possibly it enlightens other readers as to your own mental and intellectual state. <br /><br />One can say many things about Borepatch, but "clown" is not one of them.

I hope she comes back, but if not, thanks, Tam, for all the free ice cream, & for the words of support in a difficult time I had.<br />We've never met (I stopped by CCA several years ago, specifically to meet her & express my appreciation for the first blog I ever read & liked, but it was just after after she left), but I'll miss her all the same.<br /> P.S. Damn! I'll never get to send her any pics of the yard full of wrecked semi trucks I saw near Waverly with "Keel Trucking Co." on the side, with appropriate comment.
